ABSTRACT BACKGROUND: Labor pain is one of the most excruciating pain experienced by women. It affects maternal psychology and the course of labor causing apprehension, anxiety, and stress. Therefore there is a need for a safe and effective analgesic with minimal maternal and fetal side effects like intravenous paracetamol which has been shown to have great analgesic effect in labour with minimal maternal and neonatal side effects. OBJECTIVE: To compare intravenous paracetamol versus intramuscular tramadol as labour analgesia and to evaluate the incidence of side effects on mother and baby of both drugs. METHOD: This would be a hospital based randomized controlled trial comparing intravenous paracetamol to intramuscular tramadol as labour analgesia in pregnant women in active phase of labour in the department of obstetrics and gynecology at Alex-Ekwueme Federal University Teaching Hospital and St. Patrick Mile 4 hospital, Abakaliki. A total of 194 pregnant women in active phase of labour will be included in study after fulfilling the inclusion criteria. These women will be divided into 2 groups of 97 each. Group A will receive a 100ml intravenous infusion containing 1000mg of paracetamol single dose over 15min. Group B: will receive intramuscular tramadol hydrochloride 100mg single dose. Pain intensity of women with both drugs will be noted before administration of drug, one hour, two hours and three hours after administration of drug using the visual analog scale. Perinatal outcome will also be recorded. 10 ANALYSIS AND RESULTS: Data will be collated, tabulated and then statistically analyzed using Statistical Package for Social Science (IBM SPSS) software (version 24, Chicago II, USA). Continuous variables will be presented as mean and standard deviation (Mean ± 2SD) or median and range as appropriate, while categorical variables will be presented as frequencies and percentages. Chi-square test( or Fisher's exact test where applicable) will be used for comparison between groups for categorical variables while student t test or Mann-Whitney U test will be used for comparison between groups for continuous variables KEYWORDS Labour analgesia, intravenous paracetamol, intramuscular tramadol, visual analog scale, neonate, side effects.
The research was conducted to evaluate the effects of three different non-pharmacological methods (playing a music video, buzzy application, listening to a music video + buzzy application) on the pain and anxiety levels of children in the 4-12 age group during vascular access. H0.1. Playing music (music video) during the vascular access procedure has no effect on children's pain and anxiety levels. H0.2. Applying buzzy during the vascular access procedure has no effect on children's pain and anxiety levels. H0.3. Listening to a music video + applying buzzy during the vascular access procedure has no effect on children's pain and anxiety levels.
This will be a double-blind randomized control trial in women with stress urinary incontinence who are undergoing an outpatient transurethral bulking procedure for stress urinary incontinence. Subjects will be identified by the University of Rochester urologists and urogynecologists participating in the study who currently oversee stress incontinence care. Subjects will be randomized into two groups. One group will be undergoing the cystoscopy with transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) for analgesia, and the second group will have the cystoscopy with placebo TENS.
This study aims to determine the effect of using Coolsense, which is created using the proven effect of cold application during insulin injection, and Buzzy, which is a combination of vibration and cold application, in reducing pain and anxiety in children diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes mellitus.This randomized controlled clinical study is planned to be conducted between 05.2024-12.2025 with 147 participants between the ages of 6-12. Participants will be divided into three groups according to the randomization method: buzzy group (n = 49), coolsense group (n = 49) and control group (n = 49). Participants in the Coolsense group will receive a cold application using the coolsense device for 5 seconds before the injection. Participants in the Buzzy group will be subjected to vibration and cold application 30-60 seconds before the procedure. Participants in the control group will continue the clinic's standard procedure. Changes in participants' pain score and fear level, heart rate, blood pressure, respiratory rate and oxygen saturation will be measured at three time points: immediately before and after the procedure. Data descriptive information form, application registration form, Facial Expressions Pain Scale (FPS-R) and Child Fear Scale (CFS) will be used. The collected data will be analyzed using SPSS 15 software. The main questions it aims to answer: - Does buzzy and coolsense application have an effect the pain score of children during the insülin injection? - Does buzzy and coolsense application have an effect the fear score of children during the insülin injection? - Does buzzy and coolsense application have an effect the heart rate of children during the insülin injection? - Does buzzy and coolsense application have an effect the oxygen saturation of children during the insülin injection? - Does buzzy and coolsense application have an effect the blood pressure of children during the insülin injection? - Does buzzy and coolsense application have an effect the respiratory rate of children during the insülin injection?
Low molecular weight heparin is a drug with anticoagulant and antithrombotic effects. This drug is frequently administered subcutaneously to patients by nurses. Complications such as pain, ecchymosis and hematoma may commonly occur at the injection site. This study investigated the effect of Hypericum Perforatum oil in preventing pain and ecchymosis after subcutaneous injection low molecular weight heparin. This quasi-experimental and single blinded study was conducted with 160 patients in a coronary intensive care unit. The researcher nurse applied 5-6 drops of Hypericum Perforatum oil to one arm of the patients 2 hours before the injection. The other arm of the patient was considered as the control arm. A total of 320 injections were administered. The evaluation of the injection sites was performed by two other researchers at 48th hours. The data were analyzed using Wilcoxon and McNemar test.

It is an experimental study conducted to evaluate the effectiveness of cold application to the LI4 point of the hand to reduce/eliminate pain, nausea and anxiety in postoperative patients. The population of the study consisted of 116 individuals who underwent abdominal surgery with the open surgery method in a state hospital between February 2022 and November 2022 and were followed up in the inpatient ward. The study was completed with 80 individuals constituting the experimental group (n=40) and the control group (n=40). Patient information form, Mcgill Melzack short pain form, Visual Analog Scale, STAI - TX and Cold Application Evaluation Form were used to collect data. Patients in the experimental group underwent cold application with ice cubes for a total of 20 minutes as 2 minutes of cold application and 15 seconds of waiting 4-6 hours after the patient was admitted to the clinic after surgical intervention. Follow-up was performed before cold application, immediately after cold application, 30 minutes after the end of cold application, 1 hour and 2 hours after the end of cold application.
Volunteers are invited to undergo 4 insertions of a peripheral intra-venous 18-gauge catheter (PIVC); 2 insertions at the the start of the study on the plantar side of the hand/vessel at the dorsum manus, 2 insertions after 2-10 hours into the forearm/cubita with and without application of a 10-% lidocaine spray (5 hubs of xylocaine 10%-pump spray; AstraZeneca BV, Zoetermeer, The Netherlands) prior to the insertion of the PIVC.
INTRODUCTION: Currently, there is no scientific evidence about pain in the anesthetic blockage of the first finger according to the application method. However, clinical evidence has valued the use of carpule, due to the low pain it generates in the patient to the application of anesthetic. Most studies on anesthesia and pain, especially with the use of carpule and distracting methods, belong to the field of dentistry. OBJECTIVES: It is intended to determine the pain after an anesthetic block in H of Frost in the first finger with different application methods, such as syringe and carpule. As secondary objectives, it is intended to establish the difference in pain according to the sex and age of the patients. METHODOLOGY: Experimental, transverse and random clinical trial type analytical study, in which a sample of 200 individuals will be selected, 100 per group, which would require digital anesthesia of the first finger and that would fulfill the inclusion criteria. Result: after the completion of the study CONCLUSIONS: After the completion of the study
