Filter by:Adequate pain control after cesarean delivery is a major concern for both parturients and obstetrician, and it usually comprise a combination of systemic and regional techniques. The transversus abdominis plane (TAP) block, affecting the nerves supplying the anterior abdominal wall, is a recently introduced, promising regional analgesic technique for a variety of abdominal and pelvic surgeries including cesarean delivery . Infiltration of local anesthetic into the surgical wound (either as a single shot or using indwelling catheters) has long been used for postoperative analgesia, Both the TAP block and wound infiltration, are superior to placebo, however, it is unknown which of them provides better analgesia after cesarean delivery because of a scarcity of randomized clinical trials. This study aimed to compare bilateral US guidedTAP block with single-shot local anesthetic wound infiltration for analgesia after cesarean delivery performed under general anesthesia. The investigators hypothesized that the TAP block would decrease postoperative cumulative opioid consumption at 24 hours.
Pain management after gynecological surgeries is essential for early mobilization of the patient, decrease postoperative complication and hospital stay. The use of opioids is associated with adverse effects such as nausea, vomiting, ileus, pruritus, sedation and respiratory depression. Previous studies stated that pregabalin has been used to reduce pre-operative anxiety, acute postoperative pain, postoperative opioid requirements, postoperative nausea, vomiting and postoperative delirium. The most effective dose of pregabalin to relief postoperative pain with least side effect is still under trial. In this study we will compare between two different doses of pregabalin when given as oral premedication in patients undergoing gynecological surgeries under spinal anesthesia regarding postoperative pain in order to reduce opioids consumption and subsequently avoid opioid-related adverse effects.
This study aims to develop a wearable electrocardiograph monitoring device and smartphone application in perioperative pain management, also to evaluate relationship between postoperative pain and heart rate variability.
In the US, pain management after surgery for surgical treatment of osteoarthritis at the base of the thumb typically consists of prescription opioids during the early recovery phase. Given the highly addictive nature of prescription opioids, guidelines are being evaluated by hand surgeons to reduce opioid use while still maintaining pain control after surgery. A promising approach is to use non-narcotic medication as the first line of treatment. The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the efficacy of a combination of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), ibuprofen and acetaminophen, in comparison to a morphine analogue substance (oxycodone) for pain management in the first 30 days after surgery.
Aim: to investigate the effects of dietary supplements on postoperative edema and pain in patients undergoing quadrantectomy for breast cancer. Methods: 120 patients will be randomized into 3 groups: A, treated with Bromelain/Boswellia Serrata Casperome and Centella Asiatica with Vitamins for 30 days; B, treated with Bromelain/Bosswellia Serrata and placebo for 30 days; C, treated with 2 placebos. Inclusion criteria: adult (>18 years) patients with breast cancer undergoing quadrantectomy with or without sentinel lymph node biopsy. Exclusion criteria: diabetic neuropathy, previous breast/chest surgeries, allergies to studied drugs, severe kidney failure, alcohol and toxics addiction, axillary lymphadenectomy. Patients will be studied through ultrasound examination for edema and collections, VAS and DN4 for pain, during 30 postoperative days. Patients will also be studied through psychological and physiatric evaluations. Wilcoxon, T student, Chi-Squared tests will be used to evaluate the outcomes. STATA 14 (StataCorp LP, College Station, Tex, USA) will be used for the analysis. P<0.05 will be statistically significant.
The goal of this investigation is to compare effectiveness of this multimodal regimen at controlling postoperative pain with and without the use of opioid medications.
The present clinical evaluation was planned for comparing the post-operative pain incidence in maxillary premolar teeth with acute irreversible pulpitis treated by recently introduced heat treated TruNatomy TM and other widely studied heat-treated files Hyflex EDM, Protaper Gold and one heat-treated reciprocating EdgeFile in single-visit root canal treatment.
Laparoscopic gastric sleeve and bypass surgeries the most common bariatric procedures for weight loss and improved management of metabolic syndromes. Patients may suffer from wound pain or referred pain after laparoscopic bariatric operation. Most importantly, 11.8% of these patients complained surgical-related pain one year after operation, and 8% of them required prolonged use of opioid to control chronic postoperative pain (CPSP). However, there are currently lack of clinical practice guidelines or recommendations for prevention of CPSP after laparoscopic abdominal surgery. Although regional block techniques (i.e. truncal block or intrathecal opioid) are considered as effective supplementary analgesic approaches to improve postoperative pain control, parenteral administration of analgesics remain as the mainstay for pain management of laparoscopic abdominal surgery. Naldebain® is prodrug of nalbuphine, which was approved by the Taiwan FDA in 2017. Naldebain® is an extended-release dinalbuphine sebacate, and is rapidly hydrolyzed by tissue of plasma esterase to release nalbuphine. A number of clinical studies have shown that single-dose of pre-operative intramuscular administration of Naldebain® provides significantly higher analgesic effect up to 1 week in hemorrhoidectomy and laparotomy surgery with a well-tolerated safety profile. Therefore, this PI-initiated randomized, double-blind, placebo-control trial aims to investigate the clinical efficacy of Naldebain® in management of acute postoperative pain in patients receiving laparoscopic gastric sleeve or bypass surgery, and prevention of the development of CPSP after surgery. This study will also analyze the plasma levels of nalbuphine following a single intramuscular injection in obese patients.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of APSCTC compared to two active drugs in acute pain relief.
Circumcision is the most common surgical procedure performed by Pediatric Urologists. Ketorolac has been shown to have an efficacy similar to morphine in multi-modal analgesic regimens without the commonly associated adverse effects. This study aims to see if giving ketorolac during the operation will result in better pain control. We hypothesize that ketorolac will result in pain control similar to morphine with a lower incidence of side effects such as nausea and vomiting.
