Filter by:This is a randomized, double-blind, multicenter, repeat-dose study of fixed doses of Q8003 12 mg/8 mg given q6hr compared to morphine sulfate 24 mg and oxycodone hydrochloride 16 mg given q6hr for the management of acute moderate to severe postoperative pain for 48 hours following bunionectomy surgery.
Breast cancer treatment is for many patients followed by sequelae, such as persistent pain, sensory disturbances, lymphedema and reduced physical function. These undesired consequences of the treatment are a major clinical problem, with persistent pain affecting 25-60%, sensory disturbances 20-80%, lymphedema 2-86% and reduced physical function 13-28% of patients. Development of persistent pain after breast cancer treatment, involves a complex pathophysiology that involves pre-, intra- and postoperative factors. Several risk factors for the development of persistent pain after breast cancer treatment have been identified; young age, psychosocial factors, surgical procedure and radiation therapy. Neurotoxicity is a well know attribute of many chemotherapeutic agents, such as taxanes. The purpose of this nationwide study is to retrospectively examine a cohort of breast cancer patients treated with docetaxel, to clarify if docetaxel may influence the prevalence and intensity of persistent pain and other sequelae.
Comparing morphine consumption and recovery with two different TAP block techniques after abdominoplasty.
Patients undergoing total hip arthroplasty may experience severe postoperative pain. This is normally treated with opioids, which can cause side effects such as nausea, vomiting, obstipation and sedation. The hypothesis is that patients receiving peripheral nerve blockade of three nerves leading pain stimuli from the hip will experience less pain, will consume less opioid and therefore have less side effects, and will be mobilized more quickly than patients not receiving the peripheral nerve blockade.
This will be a randomized blinded clinical trial. Patients will be randomized to receive either a remifentanil or dexmedetomidine infusion for general anesthesia. The anesthesia team will know the result of randomization at induction. Data will be gathered by research personnel who will be blinded to the anesthetic method used. Patients will be blinded to the anesthetic they receive till they are discharged from the PACU when they will have the option to be unblinded. The Data Safety and -Toxicity Committee will review all serious adverse events and toxicity reports as well as annual reviews.
This is a trial to evaluate if single port laparoscopic cholecystectomy causes less pain than conventional laparoscopic cholecystectomy.
The objective of this study is to assess the efficacy of Adductor-Canal-Blockade on pain and morphine consumption after total knee arthroplasty. Our hypothesis is that the Adductor -Canal-Blockade is superior to placebo in reducing pain and morphine consumption after total knee arthroplasty.
This study has been designed to determine if women undergoing cesarean delivery with spinal anesthesia and routine pain management who also have an additional ultrasound guided transversus abdominis plane (TAP)block using ropivacaine have better pain relief and a better quality of recovery than women who don't have the additional TAP block. Maximizing pain relief using ultrasound guided TAP blocks in addition to neuraxial opioids, NSAIDs, and acetaminophen may improve acute pain outcomes, reduce adverse side effects, and potentially reduce chronic pain.
Infants handle ketorolac differently than adults. Study of handling of this pain medication given to infants following surgery. Detailed analysis of how the drug is eliminated from age 2 months to 18 months. Compared morphine use in infants who received the drug to the group getting placebo. Safety testing for kidney and liver function, breathing measured by continuous oximetry, and any bleeding issues.
Post-operative pain after laparoscopic colon and rectal surgery in fast-track design. A fast-track program is an evidence-based, multimodal approach for patients undergoing surgery to reduce perioperative morbidity, hospital stay and cost and to increase patient centered well-being. Optimized pain relief is a core component of any fast-track regimen. In this context epidural analgesia has become the standard of care for early postoperative pain therapy. However, it is debated whether non-opioid analgesics should be given as adjuncts when epidural analgesia is already present. The purpose of this study is to demonstrate that the administration of etoricoxib 120mg additionally to the clinical routine therapy (epidural catheter) reduces the post-operative pain level during movement after laparoscopic colon surgery in the fast-track design.
