Filter by:Laminoplasty and laminectomy have been used for decades for the treatment of intraspinal space occupying lesions, spinal stenosis, disc herniation, injuries, etc. After these procedures, patients often experience severe postoperative pain at the surgical site. However, current methods of pain control are mostly insufficient. At present, several pain controlling methods are available, to reduce postoperative pain after laminoplasty or laminectomy. Methods for systemic administration include: oral analgesics, intermittent intravenous, intramuscular injections, patient- controlled intravenous analgesia, etc. However, the aforementioned methods may have a lot of side effects, and are usually used after the occurrence of pain and the analgesic effects are sometimes inadequate. Topical administration options use a lower dose of drugs and therefore have less systemic side effects. Pre-emptive injection of local anesthetics can significantly reduce postoperative pain during rest and movement, however, the analgesic effect is maintained for a relatively short period of time. It is necessary to use more cases to explore the other compatibility of drugs with longer duration of action and stronger analgesic effect. Betamethasone as the stereoisomer of dexamethasone is a long-acting corticosteroid, which has long lasting anti-inflammatory properties. Whether betamethasone combined with local anesthetic for laminoplasty or laminectomy has better short-term and long-term effects than the local anesthetic alone has not been reported yet. Therefore, a prospective, randomized, controlled, blinded-endpoint study is needed to compare the postoperative analgesic efficacy of preemptive wound infilteration of ropivacaine alone and betamethasone plus ropivacaine for laminectomy or laminoplasty.
This study is designed to determine the most effective post-operative care to relief the patient's discomfort after pterygium excision surgery.
Introduction Adult living related donor hepatectomy is associated with pain due to the sub-costal j-shaped incision, rib retraction using Thompson retractor, and diaphragm irritation1. The incidence of severe pain after donor hepatectomy is 11 to 37%2. Therefore adequate analgesia is important for optimum perioperative safety profiles and speedy recovery. Poor pain management is associated with risk of atelectasis, respiratory failure, and delayed discharge from the hospital. so this study is comparison of two technique (Thoracic epidural analgesia vs Erector spinae plane block) to relieve pain.
This study will evaluate if the use of acetaminophen round the clock (scheduled doses) will lead to less opiate use in the first week post-operative (after surgery) in sinus/septum surgery patients. Participants will be randomized like a flip of a coin to either the standard of care pain treatment of acetaminophen 325 mg as needed for pain plus opiates (acetaminophen/hydrocodone) as needed for breakthrough pain; OR to the study arm of acetaminophen 650 mg every 6 hours plus opiates (Oxycodone)as needed for breakthrough pain.
American Society of Anaesthesiologist physical status I-II, aged between 18-65, 40 patients which underwent lumbar spinal surgery will recruited to this study. These subjects will Ultrasound (USG) guided erector spinae block will perform at T10 level (bilaterally) to the all patient under general anaesthesia. 15 ml bupivacaine %0.5 and 5 ml lidocaine %2 will use for USG guided ESP block. 0.1 microgram/kg morphine will apply intravenously and diclofenac Na 75 mg intramuscularly will apply at last 30 minutes of surgery postoperative analgesia to all patients. Postoperative pain assessment will perform with visual analog scale (VAS)
The purpose of the proposed study is to investigate the effectiveness of cryotherapy as an additional form of pain control in women undergoing laparoscopic hysterectomy for benign gynecologic conditions through a randomized trial.
The hypothesis behind our study was that patients after BC surgery, who underwent quadrantectomy or mastectomy, may present a different disability respect to the upper limb on the operated side. Accordingly they could have a different functional recovery patterns after rehabilitation. The aim of our study was to compare the recovery of the fluidity of the reaching movement (Jerk) as the primary outcome, the reduction of shoulder pain and improvement of disability for the upper limb respect the operated side as secondary outcomes, before and after a specific rehabilitation protocol treatment.
Chronic pain affects 1 in 4 US adults, and many cases are resistant to almost any treatment. Deep brain stimulation (DBS) holds promise as a new option for patients suffering from treatment-resistant chronic pain, but traditional approaches target only brain regions involved in one aspect of the pain experience and provide continuous 24/7 brain stimulation which may lose effect over time. By developing new technology that targets multiple, complimentary brain regions in an adaptive fashion, the investigators will test a new therapy for chronic pain that has potential for better, more enduring analgesia.
This study aims to investigate the potential association between pain sensitivity questionnaire score, the severity of postoperative pain, and postoperative analgesic requirement in patients with open colorectal cancer surgery. This information may be used to guide the optimal postoperative pain management, and ultimately improve patient's quality of life.
The effect of a tapering plan combined with telephone counselling to assist patients in opioid tapering after surgery remains unexplored. A prospective, randomized controlled trial investigating the effect of a tapering plan in combination with telephone counselling in patients scheduled for spine surgery on a degenerative basis is therefore conducted.
