Filter by:More than 30% of patients undergoing thoracic surgical procedures develop persistent post-surgical pain (PPSP), which results in impaired functioning, diminished quality of life, and increased risk of chronic opioid use. The proposed project aims to determine whether a prospective, randomized, controlled study of smartphone-based perioperative cognitive flexibility training will reduce the incidence of PPSP in high-risk individuals undergoing thoracic surgery.
Split-thickness skin grafting is the current standard of care for the reconstructive procedures in managing burn injuries and traumatic tissue defects. Harvesting split-thickness skin creates a new partial thickness wound that is referred to as the donor site . Donor site pain is one of the most distressing symptoms reported by patients in the early postoperative period. Larger donor sites stimulate a greater number of pain receptors and consequently pain is proportional to the size of the graft harvested.Often, the donor site is reported to be more painful than the recipient site,affecting early mobilization, sleep, and need for analgesics postoperatively.
The aim of our study is to compare patients anxiety and pain during percutaneous vascular interventions with and without virtual reality autohypnosis.
This trial investigates how well acupuncture works for the management of pain after surgery in patients having open colorectal or pancreatic surgery. Acupuncture may help to reduce postoperative symptoms including pain. This study may help researchers learn if acupuncture reduces after-surgery side effects and improves recovery.
The aim of this study is to clinically compare the incidence of post-operative pain after using rotary glide path file (Neoniti GPS), on post-operative pain when compared to manual glide path preparation in lower molars with asymptomatic non-vital pulp.
To determine the feasibility and acceptability of using immersive virtual reality technologies to impact clinical outcomes (e.g., pain and anxiety) and medication utilization (e.g., narcotics) in pediatric patients with acute and chronic pain.
The aim of this study is to compare the analgesic effect and safety profile of erector spinae plane block with transverses abdominis plane block in controlling peri-operative pain for lower abdominal cancer surgery.
Despite many regional anesthetic techniques have been described for anesthesia of the brachial plexus which is responsible for the sensory and motor innervation of entire upper limb, still, supraclavicular block (SCB) is the regional anesthetic technique of choice. SCB has been described as the spinal anesthesia of the upper limb as it offers dense anesthesia of the brachial plexus for the surgical procedures below the arm from elbow to hand. Although the SCB has a high incidence of complications like pneumothorax, the use of ultrasound-guided block improved the safety for the patient. There are several adjuvants have been added to SCB aiming for prolongation of the duration of peripheral nerve block as fentanyl, alpha 2 adrenergic agonist (Dexmedetomidine, Clonidine), tramadol, ketorolac and Magnesium sulfate. Magnesium has anti-nociceptive effects in animal and human models, principally related to blocking the N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptors and regulation of calcium influx into cells. Calcium influx leads to a sequence of central sensitization such as windup phenomenon and long term potentiation which are crucial mechanisms that determine the duration and intensity of post-operative pain. Magnesium prevents central sensitization triggered by peripheral nociceptive stimulation in response to painful stimuli. Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory drugs (NSAID) inhibit synthesis of prostaglandins from arachnoid acid in phospholipid membranes resulting in decreased afferent nociceptive signals from the site of surgery. There are a lot of studies supported the analgesic effect when NSAIDs are concentrated at a peripheral site compared to the systemic administration therapy. Ketorolac is a parenteral NSAIDs. Studies have shown that ketorolac as an adjuvant to local anesthetics during peripheral nerve block enhanced duration and quality of analgesia.
The purpose of this study is to determine a difference in participant reported pain after endometriosis surgery in participants given oral metronidazole versus placebo.
The aim of the present study is to evaluate and compare the analgesic effect of ultrasound-guided Quadratus Lumborum Block with ultrasound-guided Transversus Abdominis plane block in pediatric Laparoscopic lower abdominal surgeries
