Filter by:This study compares the analgesic effect of intranasal sub-dissociative dosing of ketamine and intranasal fentanyl in children presenting to the Emergency Department with acute extremity injuries.
Oral medications like gabapentin and acetaminophen are commonly given to patients prior to surgery to provide balanced anaesthesia. Intravenous methadone has been shown to decrease postoperative pain as well as postoperative nausea and vomiting, which are known barriers to discharge. Oral methadone would be a convenient alternative to give as a preoperative medication with its bioavailability approaching 80%. No clinical trials to date have explored the utility of oral methadone as a preoperative analgesic to improve postoperative outcomes. Current literature shows preoperative IV methadone reduces opioid consumption in the perioperative period for cardiac surgeries; therefore, investigators hypothesize that preoperative oral methadone will also reduce postoperative pain and opioid consumption in patients undergoing sternotomy for cardiac surgery.
This is a multicentre, randomised, single blinded, parallel-group design clinical trial to assess the effect of moxa smoke in the treatment using moxibustion for Knee Osteoarthritis.
While propofol is widely used an anesthetic induction medication, it causes the mild to moderate pain. Investigators will investigate the effect of ethyl chloride spray on propofol injection pain.
This study aims to establish clinical evidence for the use of scoop stretchers in the sports setting for spinal immobilisation and transport compared to the traditionally used long back boards through measuring tissue interface pressures over forty five minutes. All participants will be placed on both the scoop stretcher and the long back board for forty five minutes each, with at least 45 minutes between the two tests. A special mat that measures the pressure of the body against the board will be used to determine the pressure forces at certain points of the body touching the board (in mmHg). The participants will also be asked every five minutes during the experiment to rate the comfort of the device. Pressure measures from each participant on each board will be collated and assessed along with each participant's reported pain scores and comfort rating. The measurements from the tissue pressures will be analysed in real-time from the software connected to the pressure-mat and therefore show if pressures increase over time. A comparison between boards will be made.
To compare the efficacy of intrauterine lidocaine and oral naproxen sodium on discomfort and pain of patients undergoing intrauterine device insertion.
This study is designed to look at two different programs that may help people who are HIV+ and have pain and depression. The investigators are trying to understand how to help people learn to live better lives even with these chronic illnesses.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether the Intelligent Pain Management System (IPMS) could make recording and interfering pain timely among cancer patients with pain. The system's usability, feasibility, compliance, and satisfaction will also be assessed.
Cystoscopy is a pain procedure and patients may experience anxiety and dissatisfaction before and during the procedure. Especially male patients feel more pain than females during cystoscopy. The aim of this study is to compare effectiveness of three different distraction methods on pain, anxiety and satisfaction of the male patients during cystoscopy.
Cesarean section will performed via intraperitoneally and extraperitoneally. During postoperative period pain, need for analgesia, respiratory function tests, ileus, bowel movement, discharged time will be compared.
