Filter by:Tonsillectomy is commonly described as one of the most painful procedures that an adult can undergo. This study's aim is to evaluate if pre-operative oral hydration has an impact in reducing post-operative pain, nausea and vomiting, and opioid medication use after adult tonsillectomies. Participants will be randomized to a low, medium and high fluid intake groups and will record fluid intake on the day before surgery. After surgery, participants will record their pain and nausea at timepoints up to 7 days post-operative. Medication use will be recorded up to the first post-operative follow-up visit with their physician.
In this study, we will see the feasibility of a non-opioid pain killers in management of acute post-operative period as well as on discharge from the hospital compared to opioid medications for postoperative pain following URS and stent placement. The objective of this study will be to compare the pain control effects of no opioid and opioid pain killers during the post-operative period. This study will be a Randomized Clinical trial. Data will be collected from department of Urology, PKLI, Lahore. All patients included in this study will undergo ureteroscopic laser lithotripsy of ureter stones. One group will receive tramadol (opioid) while other two groups will receive Paracetamol and diclofenac sodium (NSAIDs) respectively. All subjects will receive one of the three pain killers after ureteroscopy procedure for ureter stones in a randomized fashion. Postoperative pain intensity will be measured by the investigator and the nurse in the first hour after the surgery in the recovery room and then in urology ward at 1,6, 12, 24, 48, & 72 hours using the Numeric Pain Intensity Scale (NPIS).A mean pain score of less than 2 for each category of surgical procedures or analgesics group will be defined as satisfactory pain control. The data will be analyzed using SPSS v 24.
The aim of this retrospective study is to determine the factors affecting the development of chronic pain in patients with thoracotomy in the Thoracic Surgery Operating Rooms of İbn-i Sina Hospital. By identifying these factors, it is aimed to apply the necessary treatments to prevent the development of chronic pain and to improve patient outcomes.
This study will consist of patients 12 years and older undergoing ACL reconstruction using a quadriceps or bone-patella tendon bone (BTB) graft. The patients will be randomized to adductor canal block alone, or adductor canal block + iPACK block. The primary goal will be to determine the differences in postoperative pain during the first 72 hours when comparing the two groups. Secondary outcomes will include opioid utilization during the first 72 hours postoperatively and range of motion including terminal knee extension at postoperative follow-up visits.
Key questions of this feasibility trial will be the feasibility of performing the TAP block in XLIF patients, screen for safety of the block and preliminary investigate the influence on pain control and quality of recovery. The investigators hypothesize that visualization of lateral TAP will be superior to visualization of posterior TAP, protocol adherence and safety profile to be excellent and both blocks to be superior in terms of analgesia compared to no block.
During conjunctival flap surgery the corneal epithelium is removed and a conjunctival flap is placed on the cornea and after a few weeks the conjunctiva covers the surface of the eye. Complications of this operation are flap retraction, conjunctival inclusion cysts, bleeding, infection and pain. Pain is one of the main complications of conjunctival flap surgery. Two sources are conceivable for pain: 1) conjunctival pain 2) corneal pain, the second of which is the main part of the pain. Numerous methods for controlling corneal pain have been reported in various articles. Eye patches are often recommended for the treatment of corneal abrasions despite the lack of evidence. Recommended analgesics to control corneal scratch pain include nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), local anesthetics, and topical cycloplegias. In this article, we are going to review and evaluate a new method called corneal neuorotomy, i.e., corneal nerve endings that inserted radially can be cut to reduce postoperative pain.
Liposomal Bupivacaine (Exparel) has been recently studied as the active agent utilized in various nerve block. Due to its liposomal form allowing for extended delivery, Exparel has been used in various peri-operative nerve blocks among multiple orthopaedic specialties in hopes of achieving improved pain control and decreased opioid use. This study compares the efficacy and effect on opioid use of peripheral nerve blocks and local infiltration with and without Exparel in patients undergoing foot and ankle surgery.
Chronic postsurgical pain (CPSP) has an incidence of 46% in patients after breast cancer surgery, which seriously affects patients' physiological and psychological function, as well as quality of life. Acute pain is an independent risk factor for persistent pain after surgery. Erector spinae plane block (ESPB) provided excellent perioperative analgesia in patients undergoing breast surgery. Dexmedetomidine as an adjuvant of local anesthetics prolongs the duration of peripheral nerve block and decreases the requirements of postoperative analgesia. The investigators hypothesize that, for breast cancer patients undergoing mastectomy, ESPB (with a combination of 0.5% ropivacaine 35 ml and dexmedetomidine 1 microgram/kg) can reduce the occurrence of CPSP. The purpose of this randomized controlled trial is to investigate the impact of ESPB with adjuvant dexmedetomidine on the incidence of CPSP in breast cancer patients after mastectomy. We will also observe the impact of ESPB on long-term survival in these patients.
The purpose of this study is to determine if preoperative gabapentin is noninferior to preoperative and postoperative gabapentin for pain control in patients undergoing surgery for pelvic organ prolapse.
Chronic postoperative pain (CPP) remains a disturbing and obscure clinical problem. The hypothesis of this trial is that a peripheral block of the serratus anterior plane block type preoperatively after a modified radical mastectomy makes it possible to reduce the intensity and incidence of chronic post-surgical pain in breast cancer.
