Pain following laparoscopic surgery continues to be a clinically important problem with 80% or more patients requiring opioid analgesia post-operatively to control their pain. By reducing this surgical complication patients can experience less discomfort and be discharged from the recovery room more rapidly leading to reduced resource utilization and expense. HYPOTHESIS: Post-operative pain after laparoscopic procedures could be treated by topical anesthetics sprayed directly into the abdomen (inside the abdominal cavity, on the nerve endings of the visceral peritoneal lining and diaphragm surface) via the surgical incision METHODS: Randomized controlled trial on use of topical anesthetic (namely 0.25% ropivacaine) delivered directly onto the target sites both at the beginning and the end of surgery in patients undergoing laparoscopic gynecologic procedure for uterine or adnexal benign pathology. The drug will be delivered using a CE approved delivery system that will direct a fine mist of drug directly to the areas of the peritoneal cavity that are theoretically the cause of post-op pain (diaphragms, peritoneal abdominal surface, surgical dissection site). GOAL: to assess the efficacy of intraperitoneal topical anesthesia in reducing postoperative pain, opioid requirements in patients undergoing laparoscopic gynecologic procedure for uterine or adnexal benign pathology
To compare postoperative pain, opioid consumption and chronic pain in patients undergoing to hernia repair surgery after receiving nitrous oxide or oxygen during the general anesthesia.
Primary: To compare the post-operative pain in patients with neck extension and without neck extension. Secondary: To determine the benefit of neck exposure and peri-operative complications, which include duration of operation, intra-operative blood loss, recurrent nerve (RLN) injury and hypocalcaemia in both groups. Hypothesis: Patients who undergoing thyroidectomy without neck extension will have less post-operative pain and there are no significant difference of post-operation complications between both groups.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether different clonidine concentration on axillary brachial plexus block with 1,5% lidocaine for upper limb surgery may influence the sensory and motor block onset time and duration, postoperative analgesia duration, postoperative pain intensity
The purpose of this study is to assess the quality of postoperative pain management in a Canadian teaching hospital following thoracic surgery. Hypothesis: Postoperative pain management following thoracotomy or thoracoscopy is still suboptimal despite the evidence that adequate pain relief improves outcome.
Proper pain relief is a major concern of patients worldwide. Preoperatively, one of the most common questions asked by patients pertains to the amount of pain they will experience after surgery how long it will last and how good will it be controlled. Pain concerns the surgical team as well, because of its correlation with clinical outcomes and patients' satisfaction rate . Studies have shown that negative clinical outcome with regard to pain control includes decreases in vital capacity and alveolar ventilation, pneumonia, tachycardia, hypertension, myocardial ischemia, transition into chronic pain, poor wound healing, and psychological sequelae .
This study will evaluate Panda, a smartphone-based pain assessment tool. During a child's recovery from surgery, a Post-Anesthetic Care Unit nurse will assess their pain, which helps determine what medication they need. Traditionally, this involves asking the child to rate their pain on a scale from 1 to 10, by moving a slider along a coloured scale or pointing to one of a series of faces on a piece of card. The Panda uses the same methods, but presents them on a smartphone screen. Our evaluation will ensure that the Panda gives the same pain scores as the traditional methods.
This prospective randomized study aims to comparison the effectiveness of intravenous lidocaine injection and intraperitoneam lidocaine irrigation on the relief of pain in patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy. A total of 83 patients will be randomized into one of three groups (group C or group I or group P) based on Excel number generation. Patients in group C will receive normal saline intravenous injection, and patients in group I will receive an intravenous bolus injection of 1.5 mg/kg lidocaine followed by a continuous lidocaine infusion of 2 mg/kg/hr. Patients in group P will receive intraperitoneal lidocaine irrigation with 3.5 mg/kg lidocaine and normal saline 100cc. Visual analogue scale pain scores, fentanyl consumption and the frequency at which patients pushed the button (FPB) of a patient-controlled analgesia system will be recorded at 2, 4, 8, 12, 24, 48 hours postoperatively.
This prospective randomized study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of intravenous lidocaine injection on the relief of pain in patients undergoing thyroidectomy. A total 56 patients will be randomized into one of two groups(group C or group I) based on Excel number generation. Patients in group C will receive normal saline intravenous injection, and patients in group I will receive an intravenous bolus injection of 1.5mg/kg lidocaine followed by a continuous lidocaine infusion of 2mg/kg/hr. Visual analogue scale pain scores, fentanyl consumption, the frequency at which patients pushed the button(FPB) of a patient-controlled analgesia system, and presence or absence of nausea and vomiting will be recorded at 2,4,8,12,24,48 hours postoperatively.
