Filter by:The aim of this study is to evaluate the analgesic efficacy and safety of adding dexmedetomidine versus dexamethasone to levobupivacaine in ultrasound guided ESPB for patients undergoing modified radical mastectomy
Sleeve gastrectomy is the most performed bariatric procedure worldwide. Postoperative pain management is a challenging issue. In this trial, the investigators aimed to explore the effects of laparoscopic guided transversus abdominis plane (TAP) block on postoperative pain management in patient those were performed laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy.
The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy of 75 mg of Pregabalin and 150 mg of Pregabalin in postoperative pain control after TKA.
The aim of our study is to reduce postoperative pain by performing external oblique intercostal block in L/S cholecystectomy surgeries. Our main goal is to provide well managed post-operative analgesia.
Hip surgeries in pediatrics consider as one of the common nowadays surgeries with sever postoperative pain so pain management is essential to decrease postoperative complications, early mobilization and hospital discharge. Traditional use of opioids is associated with many adverse effects such as sedation, dizziness, nausea, vomiting, constipation and respiratory depression. Previous studies reported that Quadratus Lumborum (QL) Block and Pericapsular Nerve Group (PENG) Block are effective postoperative analgesia in hip surgeries. In this study we will compare between QL block and PENG Block for effective postoperative analgesia to reduce opioids consumption and subsequently avoid opioid-related adverse effects, early mobilization and early hospital discharge.
Suprascapular nerve is a mixed motor and sensory peripheral nerve arising from the superior trunk of brachial plexus.The suprascapular nerve runs through the posterior triangle of the neck, anterior of the trapezius muscle and dorsal of the omohyoid muscle, in direction of the scapula. Suprascapular nerve block is performed by anterior and posterior approach. Posterior approach of the suprascapular nerve block has been shown for many years to provide effective analgesia in the shoulder region for the chronic and acute pain. There are studies showing that suprascapular block with anterior approach provides effective analgesia in shoulder arthroscopy. The aim of our study was to compare anterior and posterior approaches of suprascapular nerve block in terms of analgesic efficacy and patient safety.
To compare the post cranioplasty pain score using scalp block versus conventional analgesia using IV Parecoxib and requirement of morphine between two groups as rescue analgesia
Total knee replacement is one of the most painful orthopedic surgical procedures. Patients who undergo total knee replacement are usually older and have limited cardiac and pulmonary reserves. The increased sensitivity of elderly patients to drugs makes it necessary to choose postoperative analgesia agents and methods that have minimal side effects. Intrathecal injection of morphine to provide postoperative analgesia during the initial 24-h after the operation is a widely used technique, however, opioid therapy is limited because of the side effects (hypotension, pruritus, nausea, urinary retention, respiratory depression) and intolerance. Alpha-2 adrenergic agonists (clonidine and dexmedetomidine) have pharmacologic characteristics (sedation, hypnosis, anxiolysis, sympatholytic, and analgesia) that make them suitable as adjuvants to multimodal analgesia. Their anti-nociceptive effect is attributed to the stimulation of a2- adrenoceptors located in the central nervous system. The rationale for combining analgesics that produce similar therapeutic effects or synergistic interactions is to accentuate the analgesic efficacy and decrease the side effects by permitting dose reduction of each agent. Human studies on the antinociceptive effects of co-administrated intrathecal morphine (ITM) and dexmedetomidine in postoperative pain are still few. On the other hand, Abdel-Ghaffar et al., results do not support improved analgesia with the combination of intrathecal morphine and dexmedetomidine, despite the absence of significant adverse effects. We hypothesized that the addition of dexmedetomidine to ITM would improve the quality of perioperative pain control and decrease the side effects of postoperative systemic opioid use.
comparing between three different volumes; 15, 20 & 25 ml of 0.25% bupivacaine to determine the best volume of Infiltration Between Popliteal Artery and Capsule of Knee (IPACK) block following adductor canal block (ACB) with the best analgesia and least complications after total knee arthroplasty (TKA)
Various newer techniques have been proposed to enhance analgesia in upper abdominal region. The subcostal transverse abdominis plane (SCTAP) block is the deposition of local anesthetic in the transverse abdominis plane inferior and parallel to the costal margin. There is a growing consensus that the SCTAP block provides better analgesia for upper abdominal incisions than the traditional transverse abdominis plane block. The External oblique intercostal plane (EOIP) block is a novel technique reported by Hamilton et al. performed EOPB by administering LA superior or deep of the external oblique muscle from the sixth intercostal space leading to the blockage of thoracoabdominal nerves at T6-T10. It has several attractive aspects such as easy sono-anatomy ribs one strip of muscle so easy to demonstrate even in obese patients, there is a bony backstop, easy expandable fascial plane that can accommodate a catheter and it is shallow block with no big vessels nearby.
