Filter by:The purpose of this study is to determine whether the investigator standardized pain treatment plus local pain treatment is more effective than the investigator standardized pain treatment plus placebo in total hip arthroplasty.
Evaluate the efficacy on postoperative pain of the positioning of a 0,5% bupivacaine soaked-tabotamp in gallbladder bed after videolaparoscopic cholecystectomy.
This is a randomized, prospective, double-blind pilot study designed to evaluate the potential effectiveness of pregabalin in post-operative pain management for patients who have sustained a fracture.
The primary hypothesis tested in this project is that the preoperative behavioral stress response predicts postoperative behavioral and clinical recovery of children undergoing surgery.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether a single dose of gabapentin, given before cesarean section, will reduce pain in the initial 24 hours after surgery. Gabapentin has been very effective at treating pain after knee and hip operations, hysterectomies, and many other types of surgeries. We believe that it may be effective for treating pain after cesarean sections, but it has never been studied for this purpose.
In this study we will focus on the postoperative recovery. A successful postoperative recovery should bring the patient to at least to the pre-surgical level. This can probably be achieved by a multimodal approach where at least postoperative pain and PONV are managed. The surgical injury results in immobilisation which again can result in impaired cardiac, respiratory and musculoskeletal system. Pain relief is a prerequisite for mobilisation and an early return to the pre-surgical level. The preferred drugs for postoperative pain management are opioids. Although opioids are known to be an effective analgesia, they have a series of side effects: nausea, vomiting, constipation, respiratory deficiency, delirium among others. Gabapentin has been tested for post operative pain. Randomized Clinical Trials have reported a significant better pain scores with Gabapentin in several studies -most of them restricted to the postoperative period in the post-anaesthesia care unit in many different kind of surgeries. We want to test if Gabapentin can be used instead of opioids for treatment of postoperative pain after heart surgery by median sternotomy.
Dexamethasone has been recognized as an antiemetic agent after surgeries, and the combination of dexamethasone and tramadol remained stable in solution up to 5 days. In addition, i.v. basal infusion of tramadol is a certified technique in postoperative pain management. We purposed that combined administration of dexamethasone and tramadol adjunct to i.v. morphine is an effective way in treating postoperative pain.
This study will explore the efficacy and safety of a fixed dose combination of morphine and oxycodone for management of acute postoperative pain. The study will explore the efficacy dose response and dosing interval required to maintain adequate analgesia at each tested dosage strength.
The purpose of this study is to test whether pregabalin added to the standard of care with dosing starting preoperatively and continuing for 1 week post surgery will decrease the intensity of acute post-operative pain following inguinal hernia repair.
After Laparoscopic surgery most patients experience some form of mild to moderate pain. The current standard of care is to treat this pain with local anesthetics (numbing medication, that deadens the nerve endings) to the small surgical incisions (cuts) and narcotic systemic analgesics (medication injected into your vein to control pain such as morphine). Although this treatment improves pain symptoms it is not perfect. Firstly, complete pain control is rarely achieved and secondly, narcotics (such as morphine) often have many side effects including nausea, vomiting, sedation (sleepiness), constipation and abdominal upset. All of these issues make recovery less comfortable and delays return to full function (work, school and other activities of daily life). A new FDA approved device is now available that offers the benefits of long term anesthesia without the side effects of narcotics. It consists of a pump that continuously infuses local anesthesia into and around the surgical site. This pump is placed during your operation. You then carry a tennis ball sized container made of soft plastic in a pouch which drips numbing medicine around your wounds for 2 days continuously. The purpose of this study is to see if this pump improves postoperative pain, decreases the need for narcotic pain medicine and allows people to return to their activities earlier.
