Filter by:The aim of study is to assess the effect of intraoperative use of magnesium sulfate in liver donating patients in reducing post-operative morphine requirements in early postoperative 24 hour in adult living liver donor.The authors hypothesize that magnesium sulfate can be used to efficiently reduce postoperative morphine consumption in the early 24 hours postoperatively as evident in other surgery types.
the aim of the study is to evaluate the effect of cryotherapy on postoperative pain in molar teeth with irreversible pulpitis and apical periodontitis
This project proposes to compare epidural versus spinal anesthesia in patients having liver resection surgery. The investigators hypothesize that spinal anesthesia will result in improved blood pressure control postoperatively and reduce the amount of intravenous fluids required after surgery. Spinal anesthesia is expected to provide the same pain control benefits as epidurals, with faster recovery of function. Spinal anesthesia may be a simple and effective way to improve and enhance the recovery in the increasing number of patients requiring liver resection.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate and reduce pain and improve quality of life in patients being treated for head and neck cancer with unilateral surgery. In this study, patients will be randomly assigned to receive either pre-operative stellate ganglion block or no pre-operative treatment. Blocks will be placed by a trained anesthesiologist using ultrasound guidance in the preoperative holding area prior to surgery. All patients will receive the same post-operative pain medication regimen with appropriate pain treatment as needed. Patients will be asked to fill out surveys prior to surgery, while in the hospital after surgery, and at each follow-up appointment for up to 24 months.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate and reduce pain and improve quality of life in patients being treated for head and neck cancer with primary tumor resection and bilateral neck dissections. Patients will be randomly assigned to receive either pre-operative pregabalin (Lyrica) or a placebo. Patients and investigators will be blinded to which medication patients receive, and all patients will receive the same postoperative pain medication regimen with appropriate pain treatment as needed. Patients will be asked to fill out surveys prior to surgery, while in the hospital after surgery, and at each follow-up appointment for up to 24 months.
The over-prescription and overuse of opioid medications in the United States has recently been recognized as an epidemic. A new law in North Carolina (STOP Act) is aimed to limit opioid prescriptions following any surgical procedure including total hip (THA) and total knee arthroplasty (TKA). However, there is limited evidence regarding patient's pain and actual opioid consumption following THA and TKA that can be used by practitioners as guidance adapting to the new law. The purpose of this study is to investigate patient's pain and pain medication use in the perioperative period (0-6 weeks) following THA and TKA to establish a pain profile and thereby investigating risk factor for increased postoperative pain and opioid pain medication requirements. This study aims to stratify a predication model of postoperative pain and opioid medication requirement after THA and TKA to identify patients with a high propensity for pain, improve preoperative patient education on postoperative pain expectations, thereby helping practitioners implement new postoperative prescriptions limits for THA and TKA patient.
To determine the effect and safety of NALDEBAIN versus Morphine as needed in patients after laparoscopic cholecystectomy.
Cold Therapy has been used for a variety of procedures and has been studied in several but not recently studied for reducing postop pain following Caesarean Sections. The hypothesis is that Cold Therapy will reduce postop pain and increase patients mobility and improve care of her newborn.
A randomized clinical trial that evaluates the effect of using 980nm diode laser intracanal irradiation on postoperative pain and root canal disinfection in endodontic retreatment cases with chronic periapical lesions
Postoperative pain is a frequent complication associated with root canal treatment. The apical extrusion of irrigant and debris, including bacteria and necrotic tissue, may lead to postoperative pain, periapical inflammation, and flare-ups. The instrumentation technique and the file design may affect the amount of debris extrusion. The aim of this study was to evaluate the influence of instrumentation techniques on the incidence and intensity of postoperative pain after single-visit root canal treatment.
