Filter by:This study focused on ND-340 extended release injection suspension for patients undergoing total knee arthroplasty with a one-time nerve blockade to assess drug side effects, pharmacokinetics and the effect of pain relief after surgery.
Erector spinae plane block(ESPB), which is firstly used for thoracic neuropathic pain, is newly developed and highly promising fascial plane block for providing postoperative analgesia for a great deal of surgeries including breast surgery. The investigators aim to study efficacy of ESPB for patients who undergone breast cancer surgery and is expected to benefit from opioid-sparing effect of this technique.
Postoperative pain is a common symptom of a flare up after root canal treatments (RCTs). Insufficient instrumentation, extrusion of irrigation solutions and debris and existence of a periapical lesion are the factors affecting postoperative pain after root canal treatments. Aim of this study is to evaluate the postoperative pain and instrumentation time of single-file reciprocating system and multiple-file Ni-Ti rotary system in children ages between 9-12. Study was conducted on fifty first permanent mandibular molars with the diagnosis of irreversible pulpitis. Patients were randomly separated into two groups and RCTs were completed with either Reciproc Blue or Protaper Next file systems. Instrumentation time for each system was noted and patients were given a pain scale which included visual analog scale for 6, 24, 48 and 72 hours after treatment. Postoperative pain scores and instrumentation times were analyzed statistically with chi square test and student t test. There was no statistically significant difference in postoperative pain between Reciproc Blue and Protaper Next systems at all time intervals. Instrumentation time was significantly shorter in the Reciproc Blue group in comparison with the Protaper Next group. In conclusion, shorter treatment time of single-file reciprocating systems may be more patient friendly and comfortable than multiple-file rotary systems in RCTs among children.
This randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled trial seeks to evaluate the analgesic efficacy of the pericapsular nerve group block in the setting of outpatient hip arthroscopy.
Perioperative pain is one of the most significant complaints and problems for patients undergoing major open surgery. Pain after surgery carry an abundance of consequences such as reduced mobilization, reduced nutrition intake, reduced pulmonary capacity and increased risk of complications and length of hospitalization. The literature does not supply much information on short- or longer-term outcomes of pain treatment for emergency surgery. The investigators know that for planned surgery in general around 10-50 percentage suffer from persistent postoperative pain. It is therefore important to follow-up on the longer-term outcomes after the standardized analgesic pain treatment. Based on a predefined patient group called OMEGA (Optimizing Major EMergency Abdominal surgery) the investigators hypothesize that OMEGA patients will present a significant incidence rate of patients with persistent postoperative pain and/or continued opioid/non-opioid usage. Therefore this study is to investigate the incidence of prolonged postoperative pain and opioid/non-opioid consumption in OMEGA patients at 3 month after major emergency abdominal surgery.
The main aim of this research is to compare the functional recovery after discharge with the preoperative physical activity as a hypothesis generating study.
Pediatric spinal fusion (PSF) surgery is a painful procedure that can treat adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS). One technique that can potentially reduce patients' pain levels and need for opioid medication is the ultrasound-guided Erector Spinae Plane Block (ESPB). The ESP block is a technique that involves injecting an anesthetic medication into the muscles of the lower back on both sides of the spine. Previous studies have shown that ESPB application led to a reduction in opioid use, and there is one pediatric case report of ESPB use in two patients undergoing PSF. However, there is still lack of evidence that the ESPB technique is feasible and effective in the pediatric patient population. The present study is designed to be the first randomized controlled trial to evaluate the role of ESPB in pediatric spinal fusion surgery and the role of ESPB within an enhanced recovery pathway.
Postoperative pain affects 80% of surgical patients and is one of the main negative symptoms resulting from surgery. It impairs the recovery of patient since it is related to chronic pain, nausea and vomiting and longer hospital stay, generating higher cost to the health system. Thus, the use of new methods to control postoperative pain is recommended and multimodal analgesia, an opioid-sparing strategies, has been widely used by several researchers. Studies show that gabapentins have beneficial effects on postoperative pain control when used as pre-anesthetic medication, also showing a reduction in opioid consumption, with few adverse effects. Among gynecological surgeries, abdominal hysterectomy is one of the procedures that generates the highest degree of acute postoperative pain. Thus, the aim of the present study is to investigate the effect of oral pregabalin (300 mg) two hours before abdominal hysterectomy procedures on postoperative pain. This study is a randomized, double-blind, placebo controlled clinical trial. Patients submitted to abdominal hysterectomy for benign pathologies will be selected and divided into two groups: the placebo controlled group (P0) and the pregabalin 300 mg group (P1). Group P0 will receive a placebo tablet one hour before the procedure, while group P1 will receive a 300 mg tablet of pregabalin identical to the placebo tablet. The reduction of postoperative pain and the best quality of patient recovery will be evaluated using the Visual Analogue Pain Scale (VAS) and the McGill Pain Questionnaire. Also, it will be evaluated the consumption of opioids as a rescue analgesic medication and the presence of adverse effects such as nausea and vomiting.
A Phase 2, Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo- and Comparator-Controlled Trial to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of Combination Pregabalin and Acetaminophen Compared to Acetaminophen and Placebo in Subjects Undergoing Bunionectomy
In an era where less than ideal esthetics is not accepted, the request for esthetic procedures is widely sought after. Melanin, a brown pigment, is the most common natural pigment contributing to endogenous pigmentation of gingiva. It is a non-hemoglobin-derived pigment formed by cells called melaonocytes Dental cosmetic procedures including gingival depigmentation among the young generation are vastly becoming popular due to the public advertising of what the "ideal smile" should be. This means that brown/ pigmented gingiva is not esthetically accepted by modern standards. Numerous techniques for depigmentation were developed including surgical abrasion, lasers, chemicals and thermal techniques. The use of post-operative non-eugenol containing periodontal packs acts as a mechanical barrier for coverage of the denuded area which prevents bleeding and promotes healing by preventing trauma to the area. Platelet Rich Fibrin (PRF) is a form of concentrated suspension of growth factors that promote healing and tissue regeneration. Its use in the medical and dental fields is expanding during the recent year.
