Filter by:To study the efficacy of magnesium sulphate as adjuvant to levobupivacaine in transversus abdominis plane (TAP) block in patient undergoing abdominal cancer surgery.
The investigators intend to study the safety and effectiveness of opioid free anesthesia compared to opioid anesthesia in ambulatory surgery in children, regarding postoperative pain, hemodynamic stability, agitation and discharge times. Quality of postanesthetic care was estimated in a 24h follow up.
Observational study that evaluate the cardiovascular and neuropsychiatric side effects of ketamine analgesic infusions for acute pain
Purpose: Recent advances showed that ultrasonic implant site osteotomy is related with a decreased trauma and a better post operative healing of the surgical site if compared to the traditional drilling techniques. The micrometric bone cutting control and the operative advantages related to the piezoelectric approach is also characterized by a learning curve for the clinician in surgical practice and an increased operative duration of the procedure. The aim of this investigation was to compare the operative time, the post operative pain and the patients frequency of intake of painkillers in the healing period. Methods: A total of 75 patients were treated at the Unit of Oral Surgery (Department of Medical Sciences, Surgery and Health, University of Trieste, Italy) in a split mouth model: 75 drill-inserted implants (G1) and 75 piezoelectric device- inserted implants (G2). The Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) was performed to evaluate the post-operative pain at 15 days from the surgery. The operative time and frequency of intake of painkillers was measured.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of liposomal bupivicaine in post operative analgesia for patients undergoing bariatric surgery when compared to conventional local analgesia. Patients will be randomly selected to receive either liposomal bupivicaine or conventional bupivicaine via a transversus abdominal plane block during surgery. Patients will be followed post-operatively to assess use of narcotics, post-operative pain and nausea scores, and length of stay.
The purpose of the study is to assess the efficacy of intercostal nerve cryoablation on the magnitude and duration of postoperative pain control both in patients undergoing thoracoabdominal incisions for the descending or thoracoabdominal aortic aneurysm repair.
Transversus abdominis plane (TAP) and Quadratus lumborum (QL) blocks are used for the management of acute pain treatment, especially after the lower and upper abdominal surgeries. The TAP block which is one of the abdominal truncal blocks is performed with the blockage of the nerve group which innervates the anterior abdominal muscle wall layers. However, in QL block, the local anesthetic agent spreads through the abdominal wall and paravertebral space with the help of the perimuscular fascia to maintain the somatic analgesia. The investigators' aim in this study, to investigate the effect of the TAP and QL blocks on peroperative and postoperative analgesic consumption in children undergoing unilateral elective orchiopexy.
This randomized-controlled trial aims to investigate the efficacy of Graded Motor Imagery (GMI) on function, pain, and range of motion (ROM) in patients with a posttraumatic stiff elbow.
Laparoscopic hernioplasty is associated with lesser postoperative pain and quick return to work. TAP block is the gold standard technique in this type of hernioplasty. Our aim is to compare TAP block with a novel local infiltration technique that uses direct laparoscopical vision.
Postoperative pain is a common problem after surgical procedures with many patients afflicted worldwide. Fundamental challenges are the complexity of measuring pain appropriately, and the many associated possible confounders. Over the last decades, gender of the investigator has been identified as a conceivable bias in the assessment and management of pain in experimental, as well as, clinical research. However, to the investigators knowledge this issue has not so far been systematically investigated in a postoperative setting. The objective of this study was to investigate whether the gender of the investigator has an impact on the reported levels of pain intensity after acute or scheduled surgery. In this prospective paired cross-over study, two investigators of opposite gender independently obtained individually reported pain intensity levels in each study patient based on three different methods of pain assessment the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS), the Numeric Rating Scale (NRS), and the Painmatcher® (PM) technique based on electrical stimulation, in a postoperative study setting at a large urban university hospital in southern Sweden.
