Filter by:To investigate if the use of perioperative neuraxial blockade reduces post-operative mortality and cardiorespiratory events compared to intraoperative general anesthesia AND postoperative IV narcotic analgesia. This is a feasibility study to determine if recruitment and execution of the protocol could be done in a timely manner in a much larger trial
The surgery of breast cancer is responsible for post-operative pain, needing in about 30% some morphine consumption; like that, the association of ketamine with general anaesthesia may decrease morphine's use and so its adverse effects. The purpose is to evaluate the analgesic effect of a receptor NMDA's antagonist ( ketamine)
Peroperative opioids are known to induce N-Methyl-D-Aspartate dependent enhancement of postoperative hyperalgesia. For patients with current opioid treatment, these phenomena could be exagerated and could produce greater postoperative opioid consumption and higher pain score. Since Nitrous oxide has anti- N-Methyl-D-Aspartate properties, the aim of this study was to evaluate, in patients with current opioid treatment, the effects of peroperative Nitous oxide on postoperative opioid consumption and pain score, after vertebroplasty.
The purposes of this study are: 1. To determine the efficacy of inter pleural analgesia 2. To determine the plasmatic concentration of ropivacaine by inter pleural road
Women scheduled for abdominal hysterectomy needs postoperative pain treatment, i.e. morphine. Unfortunately morphine has side-effect: nausea, vomiting, sedation and dizziness, which is unpleasant for the patients and sometimes keeps them at bed longer time than needed. We investigate in new combinations of analgesics for postoperative pain, hoping to minimize the need for morphine.
postoperative pain after kidney surgery is very high. We always use PCA for postopertive pain. But almost patients still had severe pain. We try to use spinal morphine before operation aims to reduce pain.
- To compare postoperative analgesia by paracetamol 1gr or ketoprofen 100 mg or the combination of these two analgesics - each treatment beeing allocated by randomization
This study compares methods of closure for Pfannenstiel incisions commonly used during gynecological and obstetrical surgery. Patients are assigned to closure by either surgical staples or a buried suture. Information is collected on the day of surgery, post-operative day two and at the six-week follow up visit. The amount of pain and cosmetic result are compared. Infection rates will also be monitored for the two groups. The study hypothesis is as follows: subcuticular (buried) sutures as compared to surgical staples lead to decreased post-operative pain and improved cosmetic result. Infection rates are similar for both groups.
Patients undergoing keyhole gall bladder removal will be divided into 3 groups, one control, one will have local anaesthetic and the third will have normal saline nebulised into their abdomen before closure of the wounds to reduce postoperative pain. These medications will be given on top of the standard pain management protocol.
This investigation will evaluate the subjective effect on postoperative pain of three catheter placements in the knee: 1. intraarticular infusion only, 2. patellar tendon harvest site only, 3. both intraarticular and patellar tendon harvest site.
