Filter by:The aim of this study was to explore the effect of neural therapy on postoperative pain and discomfort such as abdominal swelling; and gynecologic symptoms such as dysmenorrhea, dyspareunia, amount of menstrual bleeding and vaginitis. It also aimed to find out any possible links between the clinical changes and pathophysiologic mechanisms. One hundred and thirteen patients were randomly divided into two groups (neural therapy and control). Postoperative first day, neural therapy was applied to the T10 to S4 dermatomes and utero-vaginal ganglion in random with local anesthetic agent. All patients were recalled one year after the treatment. The visual analog scale (VAS) were noted in both groups, also discomfort and gynecologic symptoms are recorded.
The risk of acute and chronic pain after thoracic surgery is high. The multi-disciplinary postoperative pain management strategy is the best way to control postoperative pain in thoracic surgery. Through nearly one year of experience in implementation of the pMDT in the thoracic surgery department of Peking University People's Hospital, the investigators have summarized the experience in multidisciplinary pain management and promoted this study in multi-centers across the country, hoping that this study can improve the current situation of acute pain management in patients after thoracic surgery, and at the same time, the deficiencies of this clinical protocol can be found out and improved.
If the individual patient's pain is assessed and the amount of analgesic needed after surgery is predicted, appropriate injection of pain control and excessive injection of narcotic analgesic can be prevented. Therefore, investigators try to evaluate the relation intraoperative nociception response with postoperative pain score. In similar anesthetic depth(End tidal sevoflurane 3%) , changes of surgical pleth index values for stimulus of skin incision are thought to reflect the individual nociception characteristics.

The Pain Catastrophizing Scale (PCS) is a psychometric tool to identify PC. A positive correlation between PCS scores and various pain outcomes has been reported in acute and chronic pain settings. Preoperative catastrophizing is associated with an increased intensity of postoperative pain and more analgesic consumption. Likewise, a recent meta-analysis revealed that PC is a strong predictor of persistent postsurgical pain. The Nepali version of PCS has been validated recently in patients with chronic pain. However, it has not been used in patients with acute pain. Therefore, our aim is to assess the relationship between preoperative Nepali PCS (N-PCS) scores and postoperative pain intensity and total opioid consumption in patients with musculoskeletal trauma planned for surgery.
Video-Assisted Thoracoscopic Surgery (VATS) is a minimally invasive surgery. Despite reduced surgical trauma compared to the traditional thoracotomy approach, pain control after VATS remains challenging. Regional analgesia may be a crucial component of multimodal postoperative pain management. The use of nerve blocks, such as the recently described erector spinae plane block (ESPB) has been shown in case reports to reduce pain and thus has the potential to improve patient recovery. This study aims to test the hypothesis that ultrasound-guided SPB would improve the quality of recovery after VATS by reducing acute postsurgical pain.
Although remifentanil provides profound analgesia during operation, postoperative occurrence of hyperalgesia and tolerance after remifentanil administration could be a challenge to the postoperative pain control. Evaluation of analgesia and anti-nociception during anesthesia is still a challenging issue. Surgical Pleth Index (SPI) is a non-invasive and simple access tool used to monitor autonomous nervous system during anesthesia. This technique is based on photoplethysmographic wave and heart beat analysis. SPI values range between 0 (no stress) and 100 (high stress level). The purpose of this study was to determine the appropriate use of Remifentanil for pain control in patients with SPI.
the investigators use usually a plane block for postoperative analgesia; if it suitable. İn laparoscopic patients; investigators used oblique subcostal transversus abdominis plane block; formerly. But in the last few months, the investigators have performed serratus intercostal (BRILMA) block with bilateral rectus sheath block. in this retrospective evaluation, the aim of the retrospective evaluation is to determine the effects of two block on postoperative opioid consumption.
Percutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation (PENS) of the auricle for acute pain management post cardiac surgery
aim of this study is to assess and compare between the efficacy of the new U/S guided erector spinae plane block (ESP) and the conventional methods of systemic analgesics in adult patients scheduled for elective thoracotomy surgery.
