This study will assess the efficacy of two local anesthetics (2% lidocaine 1:100,000 epinephrine and 0.5% bupivicaine 1:200,000 epinephrine) in reducing post-operative pain in patients receiving endodontic treatment.
It was proven that intrathecal opioids are considered as an effective means of pain control in several major surgical interventions including spine surgeries. Intrathecal morphine added to a spinal anesthesia reduces acute pain after spine surgeries but has side effects, including dose dependent respiratory depression, nausea, vomiting, pruritus, and sedation. Ultrasound guided Erector Spinae Plane Block (ESPB) was first described in 2016.Recent case reports suggest a positive effect of ultrasound guided ESPB on pain for multiple indications including lumbar spine fusion and scoliosis surgery, with a very low risk of complications as there are no structures in close proximity at risk of needle injury.
Different modalities ranging from patient controlled analgesia (PCA) to different regional blocks have been used to control postoperative pain after thoracic surgeries. Thoracic epidural analgesia and paravertebral blocks are effective modes of pain relief but have the risks of severe complications and side effects which include severe hypotension, nerve injury or spinal cord injury, vascular injury and pleural injury etc. Erector spinae plane block (ESPB) is relatively new regional technique which was described by Forero et al in 2016. Several studies have demonstrated an effective role of ESPB in controlling pain for thoraco-abdominal surgeries which include breast surgery, thoracic surgery and upper GI laparoscopy. Shim et al in their study showed that ESPB significantly reduced pain score in first 6 hours postoperatively in patients who underwent VATS. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of ESPB using catheter on postoperative 24 hours opioid consumption in video-assisted thoracoscopy (VATS)
This study evaluated the anti-inflammatory effect of platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) applied to the extraction socket after impacted mandibular third molar surgery with subjective and objective parameters. A total of 48 patients who had fully impacted wisdom teeth in bilateral and similar positions were included in the study. The control group was formed with the standard extraction of the lower third molars, and the PRF group was formed with local PRF application in addition to standard impacted tooth surgery (n=96). The anti-inflammatory activity of PRF on postoperative 2nd and 7th days was evaluated subjectively by clinical parameters and objectively by biochemical parameters. Subjective parameters were pain assesment, swelling measurements on the face and limitation of mouth opening. Objective data is the analysis of serum values and anti-inflammatory markers in the blood.
This interventional double-blind randomized controlled study was carried out on 60 cases underwent elective caesarean section delivery, they were divided into 2 groups; patients were randomly allocated into two equal groups; Group M: received intrathecal 150 microgram morphine in a 0.5 ml volume, mixed with 10 mg of hyperbaric bupivacaine 0.5 % in a 2 ml volume (total volume 2.5 ml). Group B: received intrathecal 10 mg hyperbaric bupivacaine 0.5% 2ml volume + 0.5 saline (Total volume 3ml) and at the end of surgery patient received bilateral TAP block with 20 ml volume of 0.25% bupivacaine on each side.
Adenoidectomy and tonsillectomy are generally performed during childhood to help reduce snoring and improve sleep or caused by recurrent infection.And insufficient analgesia may result in postoperative sore throat, difficulty swallowing, aspiration, delayed discharge, spasm, and agitation. Remedial analgesic drugs such as morphine and opioids may lead to postoperative respiration depression, desaturation and vomiting.Transcutaneous electrical acupoint stimulation (TEAS) is a peripheral stimulation, which is a modern therapy derived from traditional acupuncture. Relevant clinical trials show that it can effectively relieve pain, and has slight side-effects.However, most of these clinical trials are conducted in adults, and there have been few clinical trials involving children. For this reason, in line with good tolerance and less side effects of TEAS, ,this study is designed to enhance the therapeutic effect of adenoidectomy and tonsillectomy pain by means of taking advantage of the skin-sticking electro-acupuncture.It is also hoped that this study can certify if TEAS can reduce the amount and side effects of analgesic drugs, such as morphine, and improve the postoperative safety of children, and moreover, explore the possible mechanisms by which TEAS relieve pain in children.
Background and purpose : This study aims to analyze the effects of listening to music during deep breathing and coughing exercises on vital sings and pulmonary functions in patients, who underwent video assisted thoracoscopic surgery with wedge resection. Materials and methods: This randomized and single-blinded study was conducted on 30 patients, including 15 patients in the music and the control groups. The patients were randomized into the music group, which listened to music during deep breathing and coughing exercises and the control group that only performed the exercises. Data were collected preoperatively and postoperatively. Patient information form, observation form and the visual analog scale were used for data collection.
This research aim to improve postoperative outcome in total hip arthroplasty(THA) by using local mixture infiltration as bupivacaine + NSAID + epinephrine + tranxemic acid. In the present time these mixture components has shown to improve THA outcome by aspect of postoperative pain control, postoperative opioid consumption, postoperative bleeding, LOS and postoperative rehabilitation without increasing complication but the accuracy of infiltration technique which gives the best outcome has not been yet discovered.Recently study by Hashimoto et al has risen that these technique can be administrated by both periarticular and intra-articular approach.By considering the complexity of human anatomy around the hip tissue we assume that the intra-articular(transarticular) may given equivalence (may be better) outcome with lowering procedural related complication comparing to periarticular infiltration approach.
This study is a randomized-clinical-trial on 146 patients candidate for total knee arthroplasty (TKA) who were randomly allocated to three treatment groups, including 1) a cocktail consisting of bupivacaine, morphine, epinephrine, and ketorolac (n=48), 2) only epinephrine (placebo group) (n=49), and 3) 400mg celecoxib orally (control group) (n=49) using Random Allocation software. The injections and oral therapy were performed within 15 minutes before the surgical procedure. The study's primary outcome was the Knee Society Score (KSS) calculated at baseline, within six weeks and six months postoperatively. Range of motion (ROM) and Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) to assess pain intensity as the other primary outcomes were evaluated before the procedure, within 24 hours, 48 hours, and six weeks postoperatively.
