Filter by:This study seeks to examine the analgesic efficacy of genicular nerve blocks for pain after total knee replacement.
The aim of the study was to determine the effect of different auditorial methods of attention distraction on postoperative pain and anxiety in children. Three group pre and post-test randomized clinical trial.The data were collected using the Socio-demographic Data Form for Child and Parent, Visual Analogue Scale, Wong-Baker Faces Pain Scale and State-Trait Anxiety Inventory for Children. The investigators found that listening to classical music, Turkish music and audiobook methods played an effective role in decreasing postoperative pain and anxiety state in children in the three groups in the study. As a result, investigators showed that different auditorial attention distraction methods had a decreasing effect on postoperative pain and anxiety in children.
Some surgeries, such as tonsillectomies, are particularly painful postoperatively because they are not very accessible to a complementary technique of loco-regional anesthesia and require the use of opioids in the postoperative period. The use of opioids, in combination with usual analgesics, is common after this surgery. However, some risks are associated with the use of morphine in children, including more frequent respiratory distress, nausea and vomiting, and can cause hemorrhagic complications and lengthen the duration of hospitalization. Decreasing the consumption of morphine drugs is therefore a real challenge. Although there is no randomized controlled study on the use of standard analgesics with or without morphine to date, a number of studies suggest that the use of morphine should not be systematic after a surgery. The need for opioids after tonsillectomy as well as the level of pain vary between patients. Some teams use morphine at the end of general anesthesia to prevent pain on waking and others use it only if needed, once the child is awake. Pain assessment scales are used in the Post-interventional Monitoring Room (PIMR) to adapt these analgesic therapies according to the intensity of pain. One of the validated and frequently used scales in pediatric PIMR is FLACC (Face Legs Activity Cry Consolability). Monitoring tools are also available to evaluate the quality of intraoperative analgesia in unconscious children : - the analysis of the pupillary variation in response to a painful stimulus by videopupillometry, - and the ANI (Analgesia Nociception Index) which consists of estimating the sympathetic-parasympathetic balance by a complex analysis of cardiac rhythm variability. These two types of monitoring could predict which children will require post-operative morphine treatment. To date, no study has demonstrated the relationship between videopupillometry and postoperative morphine consumption. The average ANI has already been evaluated in children as correlated with FLACC but both monitoring devices have never been compared for a predictive purpose. The investigators hypothesize that the use of the PPI® (Pain Pupillary Index) scale of Algiscan® and the average ANI measured by the PhysioDoloris® monitor in children still sedated at the end of the intervention could have a prognostic value on post-operative morphine prescription.
Comparison of the efficiency of oral Etoricoxib versus intravenous Fentanyl on post operative Pain in curettage under TIVA: A randomized controlled trial
This study evaluates the impact of local anesthetic administration regiment through peri-neural femoral nerve catheter on pain and motor block frequency, after total knee arthroplasty.
This is a Phase 2, open-label study in subjects undergoing unilateral open inguinal herniorrhaphy.
Quadratus lumborum block (QLB) is a newly-defined trunk block performed with local anesthetic injection by imaging the abdominal muscles with ultrasonography (US) guidance; thus, analgesia is expected to be ensured from the T7-L1 dermatomal segment level. In the study, the aim was to compare the postoperative analgesic effect of quadratus lumborum block in pediatric patients undergoing lower abdominal surgery
The use of an interscalene block (ISB) is often associated with rebound pain that could be avoided through adjunctive therapy with longer duration. Administration of a liposomal bupivacaine (LB) field block in addition to ISB would overcome this rebound pain to provide greater pain relief and reduce opiate consumption when compared to ISB alone. 50 patients were recruited and randomized into groups that either received or did not receive an intraoperative LB field block in addition to standard ISB administration. Visual Analog Scale (VAS) pain scores and narcotic consumption were recorded over the five-day postoperative period to determine the effectiveness of LB pain relief.
To assess the Postoperative Pain after using Silver Nanoparticles with and without Calcium Hydroxide as an Intracanal Medication in Patients with necrotic pulp (RCT)
This study evaluates postoperative morbidity of patients that undergo free gingival graft harvesting from palate with or without use of autogenous PRF (Platelet Rich Fibrin) membranes to cover the donor site.In the Test Group venous blood sampling was done in order to prepare PRF membranes used to cover the donor site, whereas in Control Group hemostatic agents with oxidized and regenerated cellulosa were used.
