Filter by:The objective of this study is to scientifically evaluate two different management strategies for post-operative pain after pectus excavatum repair. The hypothesis is that pain management without an epidural decreases hospital stay without compromising comfort. The primary outcome variable is length of hospitalization after the intervention.
Postoperative pain after major surgery is consecutive not only to the nociceptive inputs coming from the surgical lesion, but also to peripheral and central neuronal sensitization. This lead to postoperative hyperalgesia and allodynia that are enhanced by the per operative use of high opioid doses. Anti-NMDA drugs have been reported as able to reduce this sensitization process and then to decrease acute morphine tolerance during the postoperative period. Nefopam has been lately shown to combine in experimental trials analgesic and anti hyperalgesic effects. The aim of this study is to compare anti-hyperalgesic effects of nefopam given either before incision and continuously for the following 48hours or starting from the end of the surgery and given for 48hours to a control group that would receive placebo for 48hours. Postoperative analgesia will be based on morphine PCA. Pain scores, hyperalgesia, allodynia, postoperative morphine consumption, and development of chronic pain will be the main criteria that will be evaluated during this study
The purpose of this small study was to investigate the safety and effectiveness of OROS hydromorphone HCI for the treatment of short-term, moderate to severe postoperative pain following total knee replacement surgery.
The purpose of this study is to examine whether local infiltration analgesia (LIA) with Ropivacaine and adrenaline is effective in the treatment of postoperative pain after total knee arthroplasty.
The aim of the study is to evaluate the therapeutic efficacy and safety of two different paracetamol-containing solutions in postoperative dental pain. They will be compared to placebo (a dummy treatment which contains no active ingredient).
The efficacy of three postoperative pain management regimens will be compared in patients undergoing Lefort I osteotomy or alveolar cleft repair with Iliac crest bone grafts (ICBG) to determine the best way of managing postoperative pain.
Adeno-tonsillectomy is a commonly performed surgical procedure in children. Main morbidities are postoperative pain, nausea and vomiting, and haemorrhage. Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs)widely used for paincontrol increase the risk of postoperative bleeding and reoperation. Dexamethasone is an powerful antiemetic and has shown analgesic efficacy. Antiemetic and analgesic dose-response has never been established.
The objectives in this study are to evaluate: (1) efficacy of buprenorphine transdermal system (BTDS, Butrans™) on postoperative pain following total knee replacement surgery; (2) the impact of BTDS on functional rehabilitative measures after total knee replacement surgery; and 3) the safety of BTDS after total knee replacement surgery. The double-blind treatment period is for 28 days during which time supplemental analgesic medication will be provided to all subjects in addition to study drug. Purdue Pharma L.P. terminated the trial early due to administrative reasons not related to efficacy or safety. The focus of this study became safety evaluations.
The purpose of this study is to see whether acupuncture may help patients recover from colon cancer surgery.
This study will be investigating the efficacy and safety administration of multiple doses of intravenous (IV) acetaminophen (IVAPAP) in the 48 hour period following Gynecologic Surgery.
