Filter by:The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the analgesic efficacy of DMTS, compared with placebo, in subjects following abdominoplasty.
The study aims to evaluate postoperative pain and masseter muscle activity in a group of Egyptian children with carious primary molars treated with Hall Vs modified Hall Technique (with proximal and occlusal reduction).
Chronic knee pain remains a disabling disease despite current treatment strategies. There is an increase in the prevalence of osteoarthritis (OA) of the knee in the general population, presently affecting approximately 450,000 individuals in Belgium. A total knee replacement is a viable alternative for severe knee OA that does not respond to conservative therapy. Unfortunately, up to 53% of patients who undergo a total knee replacement develop persistent post-surgical pain (PPSP). There is currently no effective therapy for PPSP. A radiofrequency (RF) treatment applies high frequency current on the nerve responsible for pain conduction, resulting in an interruption of the transmission of pain. This can be applied to the nerves innervating the knee joint - the superolateral, superomedial and inferomedial genicular nerves - and could be an alternative, minimally invasive treatment for patients with knee OA who fail conservative treatments and for patients with PPSP. Data from the recent literature indicates that this treatment leads to a reduction of pain intensity and could result in an improvement of knee function, of the psychological state of the individual, and finally in an increase in health-related quality of life. Furthermore, RF of the genicular nerves could help avoid or delay a total knee replacement therefore potentially contributing to cost reduction. Both cooled and conventional RF treatments are reported in the literature to improve pain. The use of water to cool the RF electrodes results in an increased lesion size by removing heat from adjacent tissue, allowing power delivery to be increased. As a consequence, cooled RF could result in a higher chance of success and longer duration of effect. Until now, the studies performed on cooled RF are industry initiated and a direct comparison between conventional, cooled and a sham procedure is lacking. The aim of the COGENIUS trial is to investigate the effect of the two types of RF treatment on individuals experiencing chronic knee pain that is resistant to conservative treatments. For this purpose, the efficacy and cost-effectiveness of cooled and conventional RF will be compared to a sham procedure in patients suffering from knee OA and PPSP after total knee replacement.
Investigators would like to test the effects of spinal anesthesia as an adjunct to general anesthesia in patients undergoing laparoscopic abdominoperineal rectal amputation. Investigators hypothesize that spinal anesthesia as an adjunct to general anesthesia will reduce postoperative pain and opioid requirements.
Living donor liver transplantation has become a common treatment option for patients with end-stage liver disease. Donor hepatectomy is associated with significant postoperative pain due to inverted L-shaped incision. Therefore adequate analgesia is important for recovery. Erector Spinae Plane Block (ESPB) is a safe anesthesia technique used to provide postoperative analgesia. This study aimed to compare the novel ultrasound-guided ESPB technique with controls in terms of postoperative opioid consumption and postoperative pain control on donor patients.
Lumbopelvic pain refers to self-reported pain in areas of lower region, anterior and posterior pelvic tilt or combination of these. Physical therapy interventions used are breathing exercises with and without core stability exercises. Tool used were Pain Pressure Algometer and Oswestry Disability Index.
This project aims to study various predictive factors of postoperative pain after oral surgery among different parameters accessible preoperatively, in order to build a predictive model. It also aims to validate the external consistency of the Pain Sensitivity Questionnaire in an odontological context.
This study aims to evaluate the effect of local administration of bupivacain in the cesarean section incision for postoperative pain control, using the visual analogue pain scale (VAS) and assessing the need for rescue analgesia after surgery.
In patients who undergoing lobectomy with thoracotomy incision, the effectiveness of erector spina plane block in post-operative analgesia management is at least as much as thoracic epidural anesthesia.
Primary aim of this prospective, randomized, double-blind clinical trial is to compare the analgesic effects of intravenous paracetamol and ibuprofen on postoperative pain, and secondary aim is the effects on tramadol consumption and side effects of tramadol in patients who underwent unilateral shoulder surgery.
