Filter by:The goal of this clinical trial is to compare pre-incision vs laparoscopic assisted Transversus abdominis plane and rectus sheath block in patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy. The main question it aims to answer is: • if the effectiveness of TAP and rectus sheath block varies according to whether it is performed pre-incisional (pre emptive) or intraoperatively under Laparoscopic vision for laparoscopic cholecystectomies. Participants will be assessed for pain at 3,6,12, and 24 hrs after surgery. Researchers will compare pain score between Laparoscopic-assisted TAP block(LATAP) and Rectus Sheath block vs Pre-incision TAP (PITAP ) .
To assess the safety, efficacy, and pharmacokinetics of oral SafeTynadol, Naldebain and Naldebain combine with SafeTynadol in the treatment of moderate to severe pain following knee replacement.
Pulsed shortwave (radiofrequency) therapy is a possible method of pain control involving the application of electromagnetic energy (also termed pulsed electromagnetic fields). Food and Drug Administration-cleared devices have been in clinical use for over 70 years. For decades, available devices consisted of a large signal generator and bulky coil applicator that were not portable and produced significant electromagnetic interference, making them impractical for common use. However, small, lightweight, relatively inexpensive, noninvasive, Food and Drug Administration-cleared devices that function for 8 days are now available to treat acute and chronic pain, decrease inflammation and edema, and hasten wound healing and bone regeneration. Therefore, it has the potential to concurrently improve analgesia and decrease or even negate opioid requirements, only without the limitations of opioids and peripheral nerve blocks. The purpose of this study is to explore the possibility of treating acute postoperative pain with nonthermal, pulsed shortwave (radiofrequency) therapy, optimize the study protocol, and estimate the treatment effect.
Modern postoperative pain management aims to optimizing pain relief while minimizing opiate usage. While opiates are effective for pain relief, they result in common adverse effects such as nausea, constipation, and urinary retention, and most importantly present a long-term risk of abuse and dependency. Commonly used approaches include non-opiate pain medications such as acetominophen and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory agents, as well as regional nerve blocks such as epidurals. The transversus abdominis plane (TAP) block is a fascial plane block performed by injecting local anesthetic into the plane superficial to the transversus abdominis muscle where the anterior rami of the spinal nerves course to provide sensory innervation to the abdominal wall. The injections are generally placed either subcostally or at the midaxillary line bilaterally. The TAP block has been shown to be effective in reducing pain scores and opiate usage in some randomized studies but not others in patients undergoing various abdominal surgeries. There is great variation in method of administration, sites injected, and local anesthetics used, which may in part account for the heterogeneity of trial results.
Determine the impact of a laparoscopic-guided transversus abdominis plane (TAP) block timing (at initiation or conclusion of procedure) on the postoperative pain experience in patients following robot assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy (RALP).
While a majority of people who undergo TKA have significant long-term improvement in functional ability, many patients may experience significant pain in the early postoperative period, which may adversely impact postoperative rehabilitation and recovery. Traditionally, opioid medications have been used to control postoperative pain. However, there are many risks with using opioid medications, including addiction and overdose, which kills over 48,000 people yearly. In an effort to overcome this, opioid-sparing multimodal analgesia (MMA) regimens have been developed, commonly using nonsteroid anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), acetaminophen, regional nerve blocks, and local anesthesia.
The goal of this clinical trial is to test the effect of the progressive relaxation exercises in perioperative bariatric surgery patient care. The investigators know that the preoperative anxiety is an important factor that affects acute postoperative pain experience. Additionally, the investigators know that there is a relationship between preoperative anxiety and moderate to severe pain in the first 12 hours postoperatively, and this is also true for patients undergoing bariatric surgery. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Does preoperative anxiety level of patient who will undergo bariatric surgery and who are applied progressive relaxation exercises is lower than those who did not apply exercise? - Does postoperative pain level of patient who underwent bariatric surgery and applied progressive relaxation exercises was lower than patients who did not apply exercise? Participants will be randomly split into two groups and one of the groups of participants will learn how to do progressive relaxation exercises preoperatively and the other group will learn nothing. Then at the time of the surgery, all participants will fill a survey preoperatively to analyze participants' anxiety level in each group and the investigators will collect data about participants' pain level postoperatively. Researchers will compare these data whether there is an effect of the progressive relaxation exercises on preoperative anxiety and postoperative pain or not.
The aim of this study was to compare the intraoperative and the postoperative analgesic effect of psoas compartment block (PCB) and supra-inguinal fascia iliaca compartment block (SFIB) in pediatric patients undergoing developmental dysplasia of the hip
The moderate-to-severe pain many patients experience following surgery is often treated with opioids, which are associated with side effects such as nausea/vomiting, sedation, and respiratory depression (and a risk of abuse, dependence, and diversion). Potent site-specific analgesia with fewer side effects may be provided with peripheral nerve blocks. However, these too have limitations such as a duration of action measured in hours, while the pain from surgery is usually measured in days or weeks. Peripheral nerve stimulation or "neuromodulation" is an alternative method of pain control involving the introduction of electrical current to stimulate various nerves that do not carry pain sensations, but which then decreases communication between pain fibers and the spinal cord and/or brain. Placing small electrodes specifically in the area of the ear is called "auricular neuromodulation" and is theorized to function by stimulating various cranial and peripheral nerves that influence a part of the brain called the "limbic system" which is involved with many aspects of behavior including responses to stress. A device that delivers auricular neuromodulation, the "Bridge" system, is approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration for use to reduce symptoms associated with opioid withdrawal for up to 5 days. However, one prospective and two published retrospective studies suggest that it may provide postoperative analgesia as well. The device itself is relatively simple to apply; has few contraindications, side effects, or adverse events; and has no potential for dependence, abuse, or diversion. Therefore, it has the potential to concurrently improve analgesia and decrease or even negate opioid requirements following surgery, only without the limitations of opioids and peripheral nerve blocks. The purpose of this pilot study is to explore the possibility of treating postoperative pain with percutaneous auricular neuromodulation, optimize the study protocol, and estimate the treatment effect in preparation for developing a subsequent definitive clinical trial.
Despite of analgesic effect of intravenous analgesic medications at intraoperative and postoperative time , The regional anesthetic techniquehas more benefits suchbetter control of Acute pain and hence less chronic pain and decreases the need for opioids and analgesics to preserve immune function which responsible for higher rates of infection and local recurrence, even metastasis . New regional anesthetic technique for modified radical mastectomy discovered recently called rhomboid intercostal nerve block that will compared against erector spinae plane block .
