Filter by:Interstitial cystitis/painful bladder syndrome (IC/PBS) is characterized by a constellation of bladder symptoms, including urinary frequency, urgency, nocturia, and pelvic pain. Current intravesical IC/PBS treatment strategies include substances injected submucosally such as botulinum toxin A (BoNTA), or installed intravesically such as bacillus Calmette-Guerin (BCG), resiniferatoxin (RTX), lidocaine, chondroitin sulfate (CS), oxybutynin, and pentosan polysulfate (PPS). Plasma Rich Protein (PRP) is rich in growth factors, such as platelet-derived growth factor, epidermal growth factor, and transforming growth factor. With the help of these growth factors the defective epithelium can undergo proliferation, differentiation, and wound healing.
Nonspecific chronic neck pain (NCNP) is defined as non-specific neck pain lasting more than three months. It is a very common disease that causes a great obstacle in the daily life activities of individuals in the society. Many conservative treatment methods are used in the treatment of this disease. Among these treatment methods, Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation (TENS) is the most widely used modality due to its low cost and many advantages. There are 4 types of TENS: Conventional, Low frequency (Acupuncture), Short intensity, Combined or Burst TENS. Conventional TENS is generally used in the treatment of chronic pain. Tele-rehabilitation is defined as the delivery of rehabilitation services via online telecommunication technologies. Tele-rehabilitation overcomes many problems such as long distance, traffic, transportation difficulties, high cost, high demand in the public health system, etc. and its popularity is increasing with the developments in technology and telecommunications. The risks and difficulties of accessing physical treatment during the COVID-19 pandemic have demonstrated the necessity of Tele-rehabilitation. Therefore, Tele-rehabilitation is widely used in physiotherapy as well as in many other fields. Although TENS application is widely used in the treatment of nonspecific chronic neck pain in physiotherapy clinics, there are few studies on Tele-rehabilitation, there are no studies comparing their effectiveness compared to each other in this field. In our research, it is planned to investigate and compare the effectiveness of TENS, which is an easily applied electrotherapy method, and Tele-Rehabilitation, an online rehabilitation tool. In this study, the staff of Nezahat Keleşoğlu Faculty of Health Sciences and Seydişehir Vocational School of Health Services and patients with neck pain who come to the physiotherapy unit of Meram Medical Faculty Hospital will be included in the study. As a result of the power analysis, (48) patients are planned to be included. Patients will be divided into three as Tele-rehabilitation group and TENS group and Control group. Patients will be evaluated before and after treatment and training.
This randomized controlled trial, conducted at the Pakistan Sports Board in Lahore from March to August 2023, investigates the impact of neuromuscular training with K-Tape on pain, range of motion, and balance in footballers with grade I and II ankle sprains. A total of 30 male participants aged 18-30, engaged in sports for at least one year with weekly training durations of 15-20 hours, are included in the study through a non-probability convenient sampling technique. The participants are divided into two groups: Group A (Control) receiving closed-chain exercises and Group B (Experimental) undergoing neuromuscular training with K-Tape. Data collection utilizes the Numeric Pain Rating Scale (NPRS) for pain, the Star Excursion Balance Test for dynamic balance, Foot and Ankle Ability Measure (FAAM)-Sport Subscale, and a goniometer for range of motion. Participants undergo three sessions of treatment per week for four weeks. The collected data will be analyzed using SPSS version 25, aiming to provide insights into the efficacy of neuromuscular training with K-Tape as a rehabilitation strategy for ankle sprains in footballers.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the relationship between disease severity and subcutaneous tissue shearwave elastography findings with pain threshold and quality of life in patients diagnosed with lipedema.
Aim: The aim of this study is to evaluate the action of the homeopathic plant Arnica Montana on postoperative edema, pain and trismus after surgical extraction of impacted wisdom teeth. Materials and Methods: The study is a double-blinded clinical trial recruiting patients undergoing surgical extraction of symmetrically impacted maxillary or mandibular third molars (right and left side). Patients receive alternately and randomly the verum (Arnica Montana 12 CH) or the placebo, in the form of capsules, to be taken 1 day prior to surgery and for 7 days postoperatively. Clinical parameters are collected and include: pain score, maximum mouth opening and facial measurements to assess edema's intensity.
The purpose of this study was to determine whether adding Lidocaine to Corticosteroid injections reduce pain intensity in hand surgery.
To determine whether Mulligan mobilization with movement (MWM) and Conservative treatment CT give different results on pain, ROM, and functional activities in participants with shoulder problems.
Interappointment pain is a universal concern for clinician and patients alike which remain a significant challenge for dentalprofessional.The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of calcium hydroxide, and triple antibiotic paste as intra-canal medicaments in emergency pain reduction in patients undergoing endodontic treatment .
Study the effects of 60dB and 80dB white noise, 50-70dB and 70-90dB non harmonic tones on the basic pain threshold of subjects, including the threshold and tolerance of electrical stimulation pain,the threshold and tolerance of cold pain stimulation, and the threshold and tolerance of tenderness stimulation.
The goal of this interventional study is to assess the effectiveness of pre-injection use of topical ice application in decreasing pain perception when administering greater palatine nerve block injections as compared to that of topical 20 % benzocaine anesthetic gel using Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) for subjective pain assessment and Sound, Eye, Motor (SEM) scale for objective pain assessment in adult patients. The main question it aims to answer are: 1. Does topical cooling reduce pain as effectively as topical benzocaine during greater palatine nerve block injections? 2. Is there any adverse reactions during and after application of topical ice and 20 % benzocaine gel? 3. Is there any difference in patient acceptability to the use of either methods during the administration of greater palatine nerve block. A split mouth design was used where an anesthetic injection was administered in the left and right posterior palatal area. The same operator administered the injections so as to standardize the flow rate and delivery style. The method of intervention i.e topical ice or topical 20% benzocaine anesthetic gel was randomly allocated to the patient by lottery method. The participants received two palatal injections with an interval of two weeks between the appointments. The subjective pain response of the patients during greater palatine nerve block injection with pre-injection use of topical ice and topical anesthetic gel (20% benzocaine) was recorded using VAS scale. The objective pain response of the patients were recorded by a blinded single observer using SEM scale on the same day of the appointment. Technique of application of topical ice: A new pack of sterile cotton swabstick that was injected with 0.5ml commercially available bottled water and then freezed the day before the appointment. At the time of intervention the injection site was dried with gauge piece and the frozen cotton swab stick was held by its wooden part and the frozen cotton end was placed on the proposed anesthetic site (palatal mucosa just anterior to the greater palatine foramen) for 1 minute. With the frozen cotton swabstick in place, an injection of 0.5 mL of 2 percent Lidocaine with 1:200,000 epinephrine was administered into the injection site via a 27-gauge short needle. Technique of application of topical anesthetic gel: After the oral mucosa was dried with a gauze piece, application of 0.2 mL Benzocaine 20% gel was done with a sterile swab stick on the proposed anesthetic site (palatal mucosa just anterior to the greater palatine foramen) for a period of two minutes as shown in figure. With the cotton swabstick in place an injection of 0.5 mL of 2 percent Lidocaine with 1:200,000 epinephrine was administered into the injection site via a 27-gauge short needle.
