Filter by:This study will assess pain intensity for the first 72 hrs after aggravated movement (cough) following Laparoscopic Inguinal or Umbilical Herniorrhaphy.
This prospective, double blind, placebo-controlled, parallel group study will be conducted in three study centers in Guangzhou, China. Patients aged older than 65 (ASA I-III) undergoing primary elective abdominal surgery with general anesthesia will be involved in this study. According to previous studies and our pilot trial, the sample size was estimated to be 900 subjects (each center recruiting 300 patients). All eligible patients will be randomly assigned to one of two groups: study group receiving parecoxib and control group receiving normal saline. All patients will be managed with by a standard clinical anesthesia protocol with a sevoflurane-based general anesthesia with continuous intravenous remifentanil, followed by a postoperative PCA with morphine. The emergence delirium will be evaluated by two persons blinding to medication and grouping using Riker sedation-agitation scale immediately since tracheal extubation and at specific time points until patients being discharged from PACU. Pain intensity assessments and pain relief assessments will also be conducted by the patients at given time points in 2 days postoperatively. The morphine-sparing effect, tolerability and safety of parecoxib will be investigated as well.
Falls are a common problem in elderly people which they have to receive the operation. Hemiarthroplasty is one of the common orthopedics operations. The prompt operation and good pain control will provide the good recovery and outcome. The investigators compare the efficacy of postoperative pain control between Intrathecal morphine 0.1 milligrams (mg.) with the local infiltration of 0.25% Bupivacaine for 20 milliliters (ml.) in patients received hip hemiarthroplasty under spinal anesthesia.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness, tolerability, and safety of oxymorphone immediate release (IR) oral liquid as an analgesic for acute postoperative pain in pediatric subjects. This post marketing study was required by the FDA. Endo Pharmaceuticals Inc. no longer promotes opioids and no longer markets Opana® ER.
The primary objective of this study was to demonstrate the superiority of SKY0402 over conventional, commercially-available bupivacaine HCl with respect to the duration of the analgesic effect achieved by a single local administration of the study drug.
The primary objective of this study was to determine the appropriate dose of SKY0402 administered as a nerve block for the management of postoperative pain following bunionectomy.
Magnesium has been suggested that NMDA (N-methyl D-aspartate)receptor antagonists induce preemptive analgesia when administrated before tissue injury , thus decreasing the subsequent sensation of pain. Following Ethics Committee approval and informed patients consent, Ninety patients 20-60 yr old ASA physical status I or II, scheduled for femur surgery under spinal anesthesia, were studied in a prospective, double-blinded, randomized way. The patients were randomly allocated to one of three groups of 30 each. The magnesium group (groupM) received bupivacaine 15mg combined with 0.5ml magnesium 10%,the fentanyl group (group F) received bupivacaine 15mg combined with0.5 ml fentanyl[25microgram] and the placebo group (group P) received bupivacaine 15mg combined with 0.5ml distilled water intrathecally . Time to first requirement of analgesic supplement, Sensory block onset time, maximum sensory level , onset of motor block, duration of blockade, hemodynamics variables, the incidence of hypotension, ephedrine requirements, bradycardia ,hypoxemia [Saturation of peripheral oxygen (SpO2)<90], postoperative analgesic requirements and Adverse events, such as sedation, dizziness , Pruritus and postoperative nausea and vomiting were recorded. Patients were instructed preoperatively in the use of the verbal rating scale (VRS) from 0 to 10 (0no pain, 10maximum imaginable pain) for pain assessment. If the VRS exceeded four and the patient requested a supplement analgesic, methadon5 mg intravenously , was to be given for post-operative pain relief as needed .
The purpose if to find out if analgesia with bilateral ultrasound-guided Tranversus Abdominis Plane (TAP) block with Ropivacaine 0.5% is better than analgesia with local infiltration of trochar sites with Ropivacaine 0.5% in patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Our hypothesis is that in laparoscopic cholecystectomy, bilateral TAP blocks will reduce postoperative pain scores when compared to conventional postoperative pain control with local infiltration of trochar insertion sites.
To determine the effect of combined intracutaneous infiltration and intraperitoneal instillation of 80 mL 0,125% levobupivacaine prior to the start of laparoscopic cholecystectomy on abdominal pain up to 24 hours after surgery.
The immediate postoperative period after tonsillectomy, , is often difficult. These children frequently have severe pain but postoperative airway edema along with increased sensitivity to the respiratory-depressant effects of opioids may result in obstructive symptoms and hypoxemia. Opioid consumption may be reduced by non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, but these drugs may be associated with increased bleeding after this operation. Methods: One hundred sixty ASA I-II children 3-12 were randomized four groups of 40 each. Group P received a local peritonsillar infiltration of 2 ml saline, group D dexamethsone (0.2 mg/kg)) , group K ketamine (0.5 mg/kg) and group KD combination of ketamine0.5mg/kg dexamethasone 0.2mg/kg. All medications were 2 ml in volume which was applied 1 ml per tonsil 3 min prior to tonsillectomy. Study drugs were marked only with a coded number label. A computer-generated table of numbers guided randomization. Modified Hannallah pain scale [observational pain scores (OPS)], nausea, vomiting, bleeding, rescue analgesia, sedation and Aldrete scores were recorded at first, 15th, 30th and 60th min postoperatively. Patients were interviewed on the day after surgery to assess the postoperative pain, nightmares, hallucinations, vomiting and bleeding. All the children were premedicated with midazolam hydrochloride 0.3 mg/kg) and fentanyl 1micro g/kg intavenously. Anesthesia was induced with thiopental 5mg/kg and atracurium0.3mg/kg. Anesthesia was maintained with isoflurane 1.5% and nitrous oxide 30% in oxygen. The two surgeon used the same dissection and snare technique for all cases and hemostasis done with bipolar cutter. At the end of the surgery neuromuscular blockade was reversed by neostigmine 0.03 mg/kg) and atropine 0.01 mg/kg intravenously), anesthesia was discontinued and the tracheal tube removed in the operating room when patients were deep. After extubation the patients were taken to the postanesthesia care unit (PACU) where an nurse who were unaware of the study drug observed the patients. The pain scoring observer nurse in PACU was consistent. Time to awaken (from the end of anesthesia until the patients opened their eyes on command) and time to the first administration of postoperative analgesia were recorded. Pethidine in a titrated dose (total 1 mg/kg) was administered intravenously for rapid pain relief to patients with a OPS score > 4 or who were crying during two consecutive five minute observation periods until the child was comfortable. Postoperative pain during the first 24 h was assessed using a four-point scale: 0 no pain, 1 mild pain, 2 moderate pain, 3 severe pain by questioning their parents. In the ward the standardized postoperative analgesic technique was with acetaminophen supp (40 mg/kg followed by three doses of 20 mg/kg at 6-hour intervals to be given as needed for pain. Pethidine in a titrated dose (total 1 mg/kg) was administered intravenously for rapid pain relief to patients who had pain scale >3.Any supplementary analgesia , nausea and vomiting, bleeding, sleep disturbance and nightmares that the child might have had as surgery were assessed during a telephone follow up 24 h later.
