Filter by:A large number of patients experience significant pain after surgery, and more patients report pain after discharge from hospital than before. This issue has been observed in patients who receive peripheral nerve blocks, the effects of which often wear off after discharge. There are numerous barriers to the effective control of pain away from the direct supervision of medical professionals, and personalized management strategies are necessary in order to overcome these barriers. The first step of adequate pain management is accurate pain assessment. Therefore, this study aims to validate a smartphone-based pain assessment tool that patients can access at home.
This prospective, randomized, single blinded study is designed to evaluate the postoperative analgesic efficacy of the ultrasound-guided subcostal transversus abdominis plane block in gastric cancer patients undergoing laparoscopic gastrectomy. We hypothesize that US guided subcostal TAP block with ropivacaine can significantly reduce postoperative opioid comparison in patients with laparoscopic gastrectomy.
This is a randomized controlled trial evaluating whether application of ice packs and scheduled ketorolac to the surgical site after laparoscopic hysterectomy reduces need for narcotic medications.
This study evaluate the adequate dose of mutonpain for laparoscopic cholecystectomy in the management of post operative pain. The investigators will randomize patients into three groups to compare the analgesia effects and side effects.
Aim of the study: To investigate whether acupuncture with indwelling fixed needles reduces pain and analgesic requirement and foster mobilization in patients after arthroscopic knee surgery (AKS) Design: Prospective pilot investigation with non-randomized arm Number of patients: N = 60 (30 patients with acupuncture additional to standard pain treatment (SPT) vs. 30 patients with SPT only Inclusion criteria: Adult patients scheduled to elective AKS in general anaesthesia with < 80 min. duration Without previous opioid and psychotropic medication Given informed consentOutcome measures: Postoperative analgesic requirement; Pain intensity; Incidence of side effects; Physiological parameters; Mobilization score
To improve pain control and decrease opioid requirements for subjects undergoing Total Shoulder Replacement.
Postoperative analgesia after corrective surgery of paediatric craniosynostosis is crucial in term of short and long-term outcomes. The objective of this observational case- control study was to evaluate the effectiveness of an analgesic technique based on the scalp block versus traditional pharmacological approach.
This study is performed to measure the perioperative analgesic efficiency of bilateral quadratus lumborum block versus epidural analgesia in bladder cancer patients undergoing radical cystectomy
The researchers in this study wanted to find out the optimal dose of Caffeine in the combination tablet of Naproxen Sodium and Caffeine that works in patients experiencing moderate to severe pain after having wisdom teeth removed. In the US, Naproxen has been marketed since 1976, and Naproxen Sodium has been approved for over-the-counter (OTC) use since 1994 for the temporary relief of minor aches and pains. Caffeine, which is generally consumed as coffee, tea or cocoa, has been shown to enhance the effectiveness of various pain relievers, and therefore is accepted as an additive to painkillers like aspirin and acetaminophen. Patients participating in this study underwent a surgery to remove 3 or 4 wisdom teeth. If the pain severity after the surgery met the study requirement, patients would receive oral tablet(s) of Naproxen Sodium and Caffeine, or Naproxen Sodium, or Caffeine, or placebo (drug with no active ingredient). Patients could also receive additional pain medication when needed. Researchers would also learn if the patients have any medical problems during the study.
Postoperative analgesia management in inguinal hernia surgery is difficult because of the content of the surgical procedure. A multimodal approach to postoperative analgesia has recently been proposed. For this reason, various methods are used.Regional blocks, pharmacological treatments are among these methods. Among the regional blocks, ilioinguinal and hypogastric blocks are used more safely and with increasing frequency, especially with the introduction of ultrasonography in the clinic.Forero et al. firstly, erector spinae block which was used for the first time in the treatment of thoracic neuropathic pain has been widely used especially in laparoscopic abdominal surgery and it has taken its place in the literature. It is performed at T4-5 level in breast and thoracic surgery and T7 level in abdominal surgery. In this block, local anesthesia between the erector spina muscle and the transverse protrusion of the vertebra was used to create analgesia in the anterior abdominal wall. In this study, we planned to investigate degree of postoperative pain, sensory block levels, analgesic consumption, propofol-remifentanyle consumption and side effects of patients undergoing inguinal hernia surgery under general anesthesia with erector spinae block.
