Filter by:The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy of Bupivicaine and Lidocaine for postoperative pain control in thyroid surgery.
Pain triggers a complex biochemical and physiological stress response leading to impairment of pulmonary, immunological and metabolic functions. The Transversus Abdominis Plane (TAP) block, is a regional anaesthesia technique used for various surgeries through the lower to mid-abdominal wall.The addition of fentanyl to the local anaesthetic in ultrasound-guided TAP block prolongs the analgesia, lowers postoperative pain, and decreases the opioid consumption. Adding midazolam as a bupivacaine adjuvant for TAP block reduces the 24-h morphine consumption extends the postoperative analgesia duration. The aim of the work is to study the effect of the addition fentanyl and midazolam on the onset, duration of the analgesic effect of Tap block intraoperative fentanyl consumption, Time for first rescue Analgesia. in patients undergoing simple unilateral abdominal surgeries.
Complete motorsparing protocol (CMP) has been developed to try to minimize the motor nerve block that is created when using Facia iliaca nerve block. The blocks performed in the (CMP) are the cluneal nerve block, Pericapsular nerve group block and lateral femoral cutaneous block. On the clinical trial, the investigators will randomize the participants that meet criteria to CMP or Fascia iliaca Block and compare the amount of opioid needed post op during 24 hours and their pain scores.
The purpose of this study is to assess efficacy of erector spinae plane block (ESP) for postoperative pain management in cardiac surgery patients.
Glucocorticoids are well known for their analgesic, anti-inflammatory, immunomodulatory and anti-emetic effects. Recovery time after thyroid surgery may depend on several factors, such as postoperative pain, nausea and vomiting, postoperative sore throat, voice disorders and symptomatic hypocalcaemia (low serum calcium level). However, there is little information in the literature about the preventive use of glucocorticosteroids in patients undergoing thyroid surgery. The aim of the study is to evaluate the clinical impact of preoperative oral dexamethasone supplementation on the surgical outcome in patients with multinodular goiter undergoing total thyroidectomy. Patients will be assigned to the supplementation group and the placebo group. In the supplementation group 8mg of dexamethasone will be administered orally one hour before surgery. In the postoperative period, the frequency and intensity of pain, nausea, vomiting, sore throat and hoarseness will be assessed. The incidence of symptoms of hypocalcaemia will also be evaluted. Preoperative and postoperative levels of vitamin D, cytokines, acute phase proteins and substances related to calcium metabolism will be measured in the blood. Cytokines levels in drainage fluid will also be assessed. The main hypothesis of the study is that in patients with supplementation postoperative discomfort and decrease in serum calcium and parathormone level and hypocalcemic symptoms will be less severe and the levels of proinflammatory substances will be decreased.
Our goal is to determine if liposomal bupivacaine compared to standard bupivacaine results in increased pain control and decreased narcotic pain medication use when used in TAP blocks prior to laparoscopic hysterectomies for benign indications.
This is a prospective randomized open-label noninferiority trial that compares thoracic epidural analgesia and continuous preperitoneal analgesia after open pancreaticoduodenectomy.
Breast cancer is the most common and leading cause of cancer deaths among females worldwide. Patients undergoing modified radical mastectomy (MRM) are associated with moderate to severe acute postoperative pain and shoulder mobility restriction. This study aims to determine the effectiveness of ultrasound-guided PECS block for reducing opioid consumption, providing adequate postoperative pain management and improving patient satisfaction following breast cancer surgery.
Recruited patients with necrotic pulp after application of conventional calcium hydroxide paste are assigned to group, Calcium hydroxide nanoparticle group and Combined Calcium hydroxide with silver nanoparticle group and record postoperative pain afterwards.
The purpose of this study is to find out what effects (good and bad) that the study medicine called "liposomal bupivacaine" has on subjects that are undergoing a sternotomy. Liposomal bupivacaine solution, is a drug that the doctor will inject before they make the cut through patient's breastbone (sternotomy). Normally pain medicine like this is given right before the surgeon closes up the patient's breastbone, at the end of the surgery. For this study, they want to see if giving the medicine before they make the cut into the patient's breastbone helps their pain. They also want to find out if patients feel less pain after surgery with the study drug than they do with saline and possibly decrease the need for pain medicine. Subjects will be in the study for about 72 hours or until they are discharged from the hospital.
