NCT ID: NCT01132209 Completed - Pain Clinical Trials

Suture Techniques to Reduce the Incidence of The inCisional Hernia

STITCH
Start date: October 2009
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The objective of the study is reduction of the incidence of the most frequent complication of abdominal surgery, incisional hernia. In this multi center double-blinded prospective randomized controlled trial, in which a new suture technique using small bites is compared with the traditionally applied large bites (mass closure) technique for midline incisions.

NCT ID: NCT01126359 Completed - Pain Clinical Trials

Lidocaine Analgesia For Removal Of Wound Vac Dressings

Start date: August 2008
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this prospective study is to compare pain levels and pain medication dose requirements in patients with topical negative pressure (TNP) dressings removed in a standard manner (i.v. or p.o. pain meds) compared to dressings removed with lidocaine analgesia, via injection retrograde up the suction tube into the foam prior to removal. Our null hypothesis is that there will be no difference in overall pain scores or medication requirements when patients receive a saline, control injection and pain medications, compared to when their dressings are changed with a lidocaine injection into the sponge, with pain medications. Our objective is to disprove this null hypothesis with statistical significance.

NCT ID: NCT01124617 Completed - Pain Clinical Trials

A Phase 2 Study of Tapentadol Extended-Release (JNS024ER) ) in Japanese Participants With Chronic Pain Due to Diabetic Neuropathic Pain or Postherpetic Neuralgia

Start date: June 2010
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to investigate the efficacy and safety of tapentadol extended-release (ER) tablets in Japanese participants with moderate to severe chronic (lasting a long time) pain due to painful diabetic peripheral neuropathy (pain in the extremities related to diabetes-induced nerve damage) or postherpetic neuralgia (pain lasting after condition has healed).

NCT ID: NCT01124604 Completed - Pain Clinical Trials

An Efficacy and Safety Study for Tapentadol Extended Release (JNS024ER) in Chronic Pain Participants

Start date: April 2010
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy, safety and to explore the pharmacokinetics (how drugs are absorbed in the body, how they are distributed within the body and how they are removed from the body over time) of tapentadol hydrochloride extended release (ER) tablets in Japanese participants with moderate to severe chronic pain due to osteoarthritis (disorder in which the joints become painful and stiff) of knee or low back pain.

NCT ID: NCT01122745 Completed - Pain Clinical Trials

Single Shot vs Continuous Interscalene Block for Rotator Cuff Repair

Start date: August 2010
Phase: N/A
Study type: Observational

1. Rotator cuff have painful post surgery recovery. 2. Single shot interscalene with oral analgesics may or may not be enough 3. Continuous nerve block may be too much for the surgery 4. The idea is to compare two techniques to see if the two techniques can improve patient pain control and satisfaction.

NCT ID: NCT01122732 Completed - Pain Clinical Trials

Comparison of Pain Relief After Non Stimulating Interscalene Catheter Placement vs Stimulating Catheter Placement in Total Shoulder Arthroplasty.

Start date: August 2010
Phase: N/A
Study type: Observational

1. Interscalene continuous catheter is a very effective way of controlling pain in total shoulder arthroplasty. To ensure proper placement, nerve stimulating catheter is quite often used. 2. Ultrasound can help proper placement of catheter without relying on nerve stimulation. 3. The plan of the study is to compare two techniques head to head to see if they are equally effective or one is better than others.

NCT ID: NCT01119924 Completed - Depression Clinical Trials

A Clinical Study for Assessment of the Efficacy and Safety of Mirtazapine (Smilon) in Depression Patients With Pain

Start date: December 2009
Phase: Phase 4
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Smilon® in the Depression Patients with pain. Eligible patients will be randomly assigned to 1 of 2 arms, either Smilon® or placebo, and will receive the treatment for 8 weeks in this study.

NCT ID: NCT01119885 Completed - Pain Clinical Trials

Observational Study Investigating the Effectiveness of Fentanyl Matrix in Relieving Pain and Improving Function in Patients With Osteoarthritis of the Knee or Hip

Start date: August 2008
Phase: Phase 4
Study type: Observational

The purpose of this study is to investigate the utility of fentanyl matrix for the treatment of pain due to osteoarthritis (OA) of knee or hip, which was not adequately controlled by non-opioid analgesic (e.g. NSAIDs or COX-II inhibitors) or weak opioids [tramadol HClacetaminophen, tramadol or codeine (or combinations with acetaminophen/ibuprofen)].

NCT ID: NCT01115673 Completed - Pain Clinical Trials

To Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of Acetaminophen 650 mg and 1000mg in Dental Pain After Surgery

Start date: June 2010
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

The objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of acetaminophen 650 mg and acetaminophen 1000 mg in dental surgery.

NCT ID: NCT01115101 Completed - Pain Clinical Trials

Superiority Study for Pain Treatment After Cesarean

Start date: July 2009
Phase: Phase 4
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to investigate adequate pain treatment for patients after cesarean. In this study oral opioids were compared to intravenous opioids as they are supposed to provide superior pain control.
