Filter by:arthroscopically Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction (ACL) under spinal anesthesia were included in this study.
Oxycodone consumption and postoperative pain intensity in patients undergoing nephrectomy procedures. Of all study participants, 50% will obtain quadratus lumborum block (QLB).
The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of intraoperative methadone on postoperative analgesic requirements, pain scores and patient satisfaction in comparison to standard intraoperative pain control with fentanyl.
There is concern that pain prescription after outpatient pediatric surgical procedures is excessive and is in excess of patient need. Current practice following pediatric appendectomy is to prescribe all children with 5-15 doses of narcotic pain medication upon discharge regardless of their age, severity of appendicitis, or pain control in the hospital. This study examines the amount of narcotic pain control required by pediatric patients after undergoing appendectomy using a randomized controlled trial study design. Pain control will be assessed with a post-operative pain scale, patient satisfaction survey, and parent satisfaction survey on the days following surgery and at post-operative follow-up. The hypothesis is that the pain scores and patient satisfaction surveys will show no difference in post-operative pain control between the two arms.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether enlarging the apical foramen causes postoperative pain in maxillary anterior teeth with apical periodontitis.
A significant component of pain experienced after abdominal surgery is related to incision of the abdominal wall and adequate analgesia can be a challenge. The ultrasound-guided (USG) quadratus lumborum block QLB was first described by Rafael Blanco in a presentation at ESRA 2007 at the XXVI Annual ESRA Congress in Valencia, Spain. Blanco described a potential space posterior to the abdominal wall muscles and lateral to the quadratus lumborum muscle where Local anesthetics can be injected. This technique provide analgesia after abdominal surgery due to spread of LA from its lumbar deposition cranially into the thoracic paravertebral space where lateral and anterior cutaneous branches from Th7 to L1 can be blocked . This was proved by Carney et al. who found traces of contrast agent in the TPVS following application of this block A novel USG QL block is the transmuscular approach which relies on clearly identifiable sonographic bony landmarks, Where the needle is advanced through the QL muscle, penetrating the ventral proper fascia of the QL muscle and LA is finally injected between the QL and Psoas major (PM) muscle. The transmuscular QL block does not result in redundant antero-lateral spread of the injectate. This may indicate that lower volumes of LA potentially can be used and yet provide extensive thoracolumbar anesthesia. This study was designed to compare the duration of analgesia provided by the original QLB and transmuscular QLB in patients undergoing surgical repair of unilateral inguinal hernia.
Evaluation of neuropsychiatric and cardiovascular side effects of low dose ketamine analgesic infusion for postoperative pain
The purpose of this randomized clinical trial is to determine the effectiveness of Battlefield Acupuncture (BFA) in addition to usual post-surgical shoulder physical therapy compared to a standard shoulder rehabilitation program in reducing medication use and pain in patients who have undergone shoulder surgery. Measurements of medication (opioid, NSAID, acetaminophen, etc.) use (daily number of pills consumed), pain rating, patient specific functional scale and global rating of change will be taken at 24, 72 hours, 7 days, 14 days and at six weeks post-surgery. It is hypothesized that the inclusion of Battlefield Acupuncture will result in a decrease in medication use and post-surgical pain when compared to rehabilitation alone. The population for this study is male and female DoD beneficiaries, ages 17-55 (17 if cadet) that are not participating in other shoulder research studies. The subjects in the experimental group will receive Battlefield Acupuncture in addition to their respective post-surgical shoulder rehabilitation protocol.
This study compares the transversalis fascia plane block with the ilioinguinal/iliohypogastric nerve block in children undergoing hernia repair surgery. Half of participants will receive the transversalis fascia plane block, while the other will receive the ilioinguinal/iliohypogastric nerve block.
Pain after periodontal surgical procedures is a common manifestation. The perception of pain is highly subjective and varies substantially among individuals. Many factors affect pain perception, such as the nature, duration, and extent of the surgery and psychological aspects (e.g., stress and anxiety). Pain after periodontal surgery is an example of acute dental pain of mild to moderate severity. Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) have a significant advantage in the control of pain after periodontal or oral surgical procedures. Diclofenac is a powerful anti-inflammatory and analgesic drug that is well suited for local use in the oral cavity. Diclofenac competes with arachidonic acid in a dose dependent manner for binding with platelet COX. This results in decreased production of PG and thus reduces inflammation, swelling and pain. As Diclofenac associated with many adverse effects, like gastric irritability, nausea, headache, dizziness. Undesirable effects may be minimized by using the lowest effective dose for the shortest duration necessary to control symptoms. As many of clinical trials have suggested Diclofeanc 50 mg alleviates the postoperative pain. So main aim of the study was to evaluate the effectiveness of low dose Diclofenac(25mg) in reducing the post operative pain after periodontal flap surgeries. Thus comparing the effects of low dose Diclofenac and Diclofenac 50mg for reducing post-operative pain.
