Filter by:Ultrasound-guided femoral nerve block is a common regional anesthesia technique. The optimal method of needle guidance (in-plane versus out-of-plane) with regards to the block efficacy and avoidance of needle-nerve contact has not been established. In this study the investigators tests the hypothesis that the incidence of needle-nerve contact is higher with the needle insertion in an out-of-plane than with the in-plane approach.
This study is a registry of general use of Avance Nerve Graft and is intended to evaluate the uses, response rates, and safety of Avance Nerve Graft in the real-life clinical setting. Optional addendums 1 and 2 included in the protocol are intended to establish comparative groups and focused subgroups within the registry.
The Summary of product characteristics (SmPC) for QUTENZA advises that topical anaesthetic is applied prior to the application of QUTENZA. This is a multi-center, randomized, assessor-blinded study which will investigate the use of an oral analgesic as an alternative form of pre-treatment for QUTENZA.
The purpose of this trial is to determine if the effect of oxcarbazepine on chronic peripheral nerve pain depends on the supposed mechanism of the pain, ie. if oxcarbazepine mainly relieve pain in patients with irritable nerves.
Objectives: To develop a protocol for early treatment using sensory reeducation through the mirror after surgical reconstruction of the median nerve and / or ulnar hand, and its comparison with the evolution of the return of skin sensitivity after a not early rehabilitation which will be conducted by physiotherapists, with blinding of the evaluators.
The purpose of this study is to determine which surgical approach is better for clean transection injury in peripheral nerves in outcomes.
The primary purpose is to study the predictive value of preserved nociceptors and large afferent fibers and dynamic mechanical allodynia on the effect of lidocaine patch. The primary outcome measure is the predictive role for these three measures for obtaining a response to lidocaine. A responder is defined as a person with at least a 2-point pain reduction to lidocaine (change in median pain intensity (measured on a 10 point numeric rating scale) of pain from the baseline week to the last week of lidocaine treatment). Secondary effect variable will be efficacy of lidocaine on pain reduction (baseline week versus last week of each treatment) and pain relief (complete, good, moderate, slight, none, or worse) for spontaneous and evoked pain, and effect on ongoing pain, brush evoked allodynia, cold and warm allodynia, and pinprick hyperalgesia evaluated on each visit.
The purpose of the study is to determine the efficacy of etoricoxib on pain patients. The investigators assume that patients with neuropathic pain will have greater pain relief then patients on placebo.
This study will be a double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel group study. After enrolment and initial assessments, subjects will receive oral GW856553 7.5 milligram (mg) twice daily (BID) or matching placebo for 28 days in a 1:1 ratio. Sufficient numbers of subjects will be recruited to obtain 142 evaluable subjects. This is a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled, parallel group study. Subjects will undertake a screening period which may last up to approximately 3 weeks, followed by a baseline period of 1 week, a randomized treatment period of 4 weeks and a follow-up period of approximately 2 weeks. This is a multi-centre, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled study in subjects who have at least moderate intensity of neuropathic pain resulting from peripheral nerve injury due to trauma or surgery. It will investigate the efficacy, safety and tolerability of GW856553 over 28 days of treatment. Approximately 158 subjects will be randomized to ensure 142 evaluable subjects. Randomization ratio will be 1:1 for placebo or GW856553 respectively. The dose of GW856553 will be 7.5 mg BID.
The purpose of this study is to determine if it is technically feasable to repair nerves that are injured as part of a planned surgical removal of the prostate and the surrounding tissue in subjects with prostate cancer. The study will also examine the long term outcomes on erectile function, continence and overall quality of life in the enrolled subjects.
