Filter by:The purpose of this study is to compare postoperative pain following COX-2 and prostanoids expression in women who underwent laparoscopic surgery for female genital disease in order to evaluate the effect of COX-2 on local inflammation, COX-2 and prostanoids expression followed by exposure time to carbon dioxide(CO2) gas, and degree of postoperative pain.
The effects of four different wound infiltration protocols in cesarean section will be investigated on parturient' pain intensity, PCA morphine consumption given, side effects and parturient' overall satisfaction. One group will receive for wound infiltration dexmedetomidine, the second ropivacaine, the third dexmedetomidine combined with ropivacaine, while the last one will receive normal saline (placebo group).
Postoperative pain continues to be inadequately managed and is the most common reason for the delay in discharge and unplanned hospital admission after surgery. Opioids remain the mainstay for postoperative analgesia. However, there is a continuous search for adjuvant therapies to reduce the doses of opioids and their related adverse effects, and extend the use of non-opioid analgesia for acute pain after abdominal surgery, thereby improving patient recovery. Currently there are no clinical trials that investigate the effect of intravenous lidocaine vs dexmedetomidine on postoperative pain, analgesic consumption and bowel function of patients undergoing abdominal gynaecological surgery. Purpose of this prospective double blind randomised clinical trial is the investigation of the effect of perioperative intravenous infusion of lidocaine vs dexmedetomidine vs placebo (Normal Saline 0,9%) on analgesic parameters and functional recovery of patients undergoing abdominal gynaecological surgery.
Ultrasound as a technique is safe, readily available, quick and portable allowing more accuracy of different regional blocks and local infiltration. It allows imaging of the mouth, oropharynx, infrahyoid structures, larynx, vocal cords, and trachea. Recently, ultrasound has been shown to improve accuracy in ultrasound guided block with local anesthetic infiltration. The objective of our study is to compare the effect of pre-emptive trans-oral ultrasound guided peritonsillar infiltration versus trans-cutaneous ultrasound (US) guided peritonsillar infiltration with bupivacaine for post-tonsillectomy analgesia, on surgical field, and surgeon satisfaction(intra-operative reactionary bleeding). Materials and Methods: the patients will be admitted for tonsillectomy at ENT department of the Al- Azhar university hospitals. The patients' ages between 3 to 15 years. Patients will be divided into Cutaneous group: patients will be submitted to Trans-cutaneous ultrasound guided peritonsillar infiltration with bupivacaine, and Oral group: patients will be submitted to Trans-oral ultrasound guided peritonsillar infiltration with bupivacaine.
Randomized double blind placebo controlled trial to compare the post-operative pain control advantages of post-incisional wound infiltration with liposomal bupivacaine to plain bupivacaine in patients presenting for elective caesarean delivery.
There are ca 900 new cases of kidney cancer in Finland/year. The curative therapy for kidney cancer is partial or total nephrectomy depending on the localization and the size of tumor. Main of these operations are laparoscopic. Epidural analgesia is considered as most effective for the treatment of postoperative pain after open nephrectomy, but after laparoscopic operation parenteral and enteral opioids combined with paracetamol (acetaminophen) usually offer adequate postoperative pain relief. However, the need for opioids postoperatively may be high and side effects, such as sedation and nausea, are common. On the other hand epidural analgesia has some contraindications and risks for serious complications. Nevertheless, inadequately treated acute postoperative pain is considered as one of the main risk factors for persistent postoperative pain. Recently quadratus lumborum block (QLB) has gained popularity in the treatment of postoperative pain after various surgeries in the area from hip to mamilla. It is more beneficial than other peripheral blocks, since it covers also the visceral nerves. A single shot QLB has reported to last up to 48 hours. Perineural dexamethasone added to local anesthetic has been reported to prolong the duration of analgesia of the perineural nerve block, but it's effect on the duration of QLB is not known. 90 kidney cancer patients with planned laparoscopic nephrectomy aging 18-85 will be recruited based on a power calculation. The primary outcome measure is the postoperative cumulative opioid consumption. Secondary outcomes are acute pain (NRS scale), nausea, vomiting, mobilisation and long term outcomes such as quality of life and persistent pain.
This is a single center, randomized, single blind study to compare the analgesic effect of different anesthesia and postoperative analgesic methods in uniportal VATS lung surgery.
This study evaluates the comparison between liposomal bupivacaine versus bupivacaine HCl in Transversus Abdominis Plane blocks for gynecologic surgery on the length of stay in the hospital, total narcotic use, and overall complications rates.
The primary objective of this study is to determine the safety and efficacy of single doses of intramuscular NALDEBAIN on patients scheduled to undergo elective laparotomy. This will be performed by administering NALDEBAIN pre-operatively to subjects scheduled to undergo elective laparotomy, and assessing the safety and efficacy of the drug compared to PCA with fentanyl. The study will demonstrate whether single use of NALDEBAIN is noninferior to PCA with fentanyl or not.
The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of honey administration on pain following pediatric tonsillectomy or adenotonsilectomy. The patients( children 2-18 years old) will divide into two groups by simple randomization method( the control group and the case group). After surgery the case group: would instructed to use honey twice a day( 5 ml- one tea spoon each time)+acetaminophen syrup+ syrup oxycode( as necessary). the control group would get as is customary in our ENT department :acetaminophen syrup+ syrup oxycode( as necessary). The families would ask to follow treatment protocols for 7 days. From the first to the 7th day after the operation , the parents would ask to fill a questionnaire every day for assessment of pain intensity by visual analouge scale(VAS) , the numbers of painkillers taken daily, the number of times the child awaking at night due to pain, the amount of fluids intake daily, the time of commencement of regular oral intake. patient would follow up 7-14 days after surgery.
