Filter by:The aim of this study is to determine the postoperative course including effects on the quality of life following soft palate surgery with radiofrequency knife (RAUP).
This study will examine whether pre-incision infiltration of the skin cut site can attenuate post operative pain after a cesarean section. One hundred and twenty women will be allocated to get 20 ml of either placebo or 1% xylocaine at the site of skin incision. We will also examine possible effect of this infiltration of parameters of wound heeling and scar formation, six weeks post partum.
The investigators hypothesize that pregabalin will decrease post-operative pain scores and analgesic use following robot-assisted endoscopic thyroidectomy compared to placebo. The primary outcome will be acute postoperative pain, measured by a verbal numerical rating score (VNRS) and total analgesic consumption during postoperative 48 hours. The secondary outcome will be the incidence of chronic pain and hypoesthesia in the anterior chest at 3 months after operation.
The purpose of this study was to compare the analgesic efficacy of 5 mg oxymorphone IR with placebo in patients with mild to moderate pain following outpatient knee arthroscopy.
The purpose of this study is to investigate whether robust analgesic regime (protective analgesia) can improve postoperative pain experience for patients undergoing lower wisdom teeth extraction under day case general anaesthetic.
The investigators propose to compare analgesia by methadone and ketamine with a combination of morphine and ketamine in orthopedic surgery patients with moderate to severe pain. The investigators hypothesize that when given with ketamine before surgical incision, methadone is more effective than morphine in reducing postoperative morphine consumption and reducing pain during movement.
The purpose of this study is to compare systematic local infiltration with Ropivacaine 0.5 % versus Ropivacaine 0.2 % versus Placebo in patients undergoing elective caesarean section. The hypothesis is that systemic local infiltration will reduce pain and postoperative opioid consumption.
Total hip arthroplasty is amongst the most painful procedures postoperatively, and pain management can be a challenge. Different measures have been introduced to manage severe postoperative pain in these patients. Previous studies have investigated gabapentin in acute postoperative pain and demonstrated reduced postoperative pain, postoperative morphine consumption, morphine related side effects, and postoperative pain scores. To date, this analgesia adjunct has yet to be investigated for total joint arthroplasty patients.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of 8 mg of dexamethasone administered prior surgery, to reduce pain, postoperative nausea and vomiting and to improve vocal function after thyroidectomy for benign disease.
The purpose of this research study is to evaluate the drug gabapentin (Neurontin®) for its ability to reduce postoperative pain, the need for morphine-like pain medication, and the severity and frequency of postoperative nausea and vomiting in laparoscopic gastric bypass surgery patients.
