Filter by:Viedo-assisted thoracoscopic surgery(VATS) have became popular in recent years. There is no golden rule of postoperative analgesia for VATS. Compared with lobectomy, wedge resection preserves better pulmonary function and is suitable for elder patients and patients who could not afford to have lobectomy. In addition to surgery time、recovery time and hospital stay, wound incisions and organization damages are different,too. Will patients also have different response to pain control after these two surgery? The retrospective study is to compared the differences of postoperative pain management between VATS lobectomy and wedge resection.
The aim of the present study is to test that adding dexamethasone or epinephrine significantly prolongs the duration of sciatic nerve blocks with ropivacaine and that the magnitude of the effect differs among dexamethasone and epinehrine.
the aim of this study was to investigate compare the effect of peroperative intravenous single dose dexamethasone and the addition of dexamethasone to femoral nerve block on postoperative analgesic consumption and patient comfort in unilateral total knee arthroplasty patients
PAIN OUT is a multi-national, non-interventional registry and benchmark project, assessing and analysing clinical and patient-reported outcome data of postoperative pain.
Dexmedetomidine has been often used for procedural sedation. It has also has been shown to have a pain sparing effect. Therefore the investigators propose that if Dexmedetomidine is used for sedation in total knee replacements done under spinal anesthetic, the patients will have less pain up to 24 hours after the procedure.
Postoperative pain after Video-assisted Thoracoscopic Surgery (VAT) is still debating. Therefore the investigators conduct a study comparing 0.15 mg spinal morphine and control group in term of analgesia.
The study will investigate whether the placement of silver plated dressings beginning in the OR will improve wound healing in patients undergoing cesarean delivery compared to traditional Telfa pads. This study will also explore the presumed improvement in scar integrity when silver plated dressings are used compared to Telfa pads. The study will examine post-operative pain by review of anesthesia and analgesic use during hospitalization and scar-related pain scores at the post-operative visits. The study will compare the percentage of patients who develop a surgical site infection after application of silver plated dressings versus standard Telfa dressings. Investigators will also assess the cosmetic appearance of the cesarean section scar at the patient's one week and 6 wekk post-operative visits.
Extensive clinical studies have shown that intraoperative infusion high dose of remifentanil (0.2ug/kg/min) induced postoperative hyperalgesia. Recent experimental study however suggests that higher dose of remifentanil may attenuate postoperative hyperalgesia. Thus, the present study is designed as a "proof of principle" study and hypothesizes that higher dose of remifentanil may reduce postoperative pain in patients.
The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy of the hydrolocalization technique for placement of femoral perineural catheters in comparison with stimulating catheters. A non inferiority trial.
Pain following laparoscopic surgery continues to be a clinically important problem with 80% or more patients requiring opioid analgesia post-operatively to control their pain. By reducing this surgical complication patients can experience less discomfort and be discharged from the recovery room more rapidly leading to reduced resource utilization and expense. HYPOTHESIS: Post-operative pain after laparoscopic procedures could be treated by topical anesthetics sprayed directly into the abdomen (inside the abdominal cavity, on the nerve endings of the visceral peritoneal lining and diaphragm surface) via the surgical incision METHODS: Randomized controlled trial on use of topical anesthetic (namely 0.25% ropivacaine) delivered directly onto the target sites both at the beginning and the end of surgery in patients undergoing laparoscopic gynecologic procedure for uterine or adnexal benign pathology. The drug will be delivered using a CE approved delivery system that will direct a fine mist of drug directly to the areas of the peritoneal cavity that are theoretically the cause of post-op pain (diaphragms, peritoneal abdominal surface, surgical dissection site). GOAL: to assess the efficacy of intraperitoneal topical anesthesia in reducing postoperative pain, opioid requirements in patients undergoing laparoscopic gynecologic procedure for uterine or adnexal benign pathology
