Filter by:This study is a randomized-clinical-trial on 146 patients candidate for total knee arthroplasty (TKA) who were randomly allocated to three treatment groups, including 1) a cocktail consisting of bupivacaine, morphine, epinephrine, and ketorolac (n=48), 2) only epinephrine (placebo group) (n=49), and 3) 400mg celecoxib orally (control group) (n=49) using Random Allocation software. The injections and oral therapy were performed within 15 minutes before the surgical procedure. The study's primary outcome was the Knee Society Score (KSS) calculated at baseline, within six weeks and six months postoperatively. Range of motion (ROM) and Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) to assess pain intensity as the other primary outcomes were evaluated before the procedure, within 24 hours, 48 hours, and six weeks postoperatively.
Newborn infants experience pain after surgical procedures,prevention and management of pain in neonates is important due to its deleterious consequences. Fentanyl is a widely used analgesic which promotes rapid analgesia,however, is not free of adverse effects including chest wall rigidity, hypothermia, hypotension, respiratory depression and tolerance.Dexmedetomidine is a selective α 2-adrenergic agonist can cause sedation, anxiolysis, analgesia and minimal respiratory depression.Therefore, the objective of the study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of dexmedetomidine compared to fentanyl in postoperative mechanically ventilated neonates.
Introduction: Opioid-based pharmacological treatment is frequently used in the treatment of pain after coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery. If adequate postoperative analgesia is not provided in such surgeries, pulmonary and cardiovascular complications may develop. This study aimed to provide effective analgesia and reduce postoperative opioid consumption by applying preemptive erector spinae plane (ESP) block. Methods: A total of 50 patients who underwent CABG surgery were included in this prospective randomized controlled study. Patients were randomly divided into two groups: the ESP group and the control group. The intervention to the ESP group was applied bilaterally at the T5 level before the surgery. The primary outcome was postoperative opioid consumption; the other outcomes included visual analog scale scores, intraoperative opioid consumption, and duration of hospital stay.
Even though Erector Spinae Plane (ESP) Block is shown to be efficient in cardiac surgery, the Combine Serratus Anterior Plane (CSAP) Block is still controversial if it has an efficient analgesic effect for sternotomy and drain tube pain relief. This study aims to compare ESP block and CSAP block for postoperative analgesia in coronary bypass surgery patients.
To compare the impact of pericapsular nerve group (PENG) block to intrathecal morphine on postoperative analgesia, motor function and side effects in patients undergoing primary total hip arthroplasty under spinal anesthesia.
Management of indirect hernial sac in inguinal hernia repairs has long been a subject of debate among general surgeons. Although hernial sac high ligation (HL) is a time-honored concept in groin hernia surgery, non-ligation/invagination is gaining more popularity. The aim of this study is to compare the effects of hernia sac ligation and invagination in patients with Lichtenstein mesh hernioplasty (LMH). Also, investigators aimed to investigate the possible association between the hernial defect size and postoperative early pain in both groups.
Nowadays, the incidence of breast cancer is the first number of malignant tumors, and the primary treatment method is surgery. As is known to all, less postoperative complications and enhanced recovery are closely related to effective analgesia. However, postoperative patients often experience moderate pain, while associated with axillary discomfort. Serratus Anterior Plane Block (SAPB) relieves postoperative pain, but traditional single point block method has no effect on axillary discomfort. Therefore, it is necessary to try double point blocks to explore their impact on postoperative analgesia and axillary comfort. This RCT will recruit patients proposed to undergo Modified Radical Mastectomy (MRM) and be randomized to single point or double point groups to evaluate their postoperative pain score and axillary comfort in order to provide clinical guidance.
Background Pain after cardiac surgery is both multifocal and multifactorial. Sternotomy, sternal retraction, internal mammary dissection, posterior rib dislocation or fracture, possible brachial plexus injury, and mediastinal and pleural drains contribute to pain experienced in the immediate postoperative period. Ineffective pain management can cause systemic and pulmonary complications and significant cardiac consequences. Methods This study was conducted to compare the effectiveness of regional anesthesia techniques for perioperative pain management in cardiac surgery patients at our clinic. The effects of analgesic methods, in terms of contributing to recovery, have been examined.
Ultrasound-guided thoracolumbar interfascial plane block (TLIP)was first described in 2015 by Hand et al which also target the dorsal rami of the thoracolumbar nerves as they pass through the paraspinal musculature(between the multifidus muscle (MF) and the longissimus muscle (LG)). The block was performed bilaterally at the level of L3 and they reported a reproducible area of anesthesia to pinprick in a mean (SD) area covering 137.4 (71.0) cm2 of the lower back (including the midline) after 20 minutes of the block. This procedure has subsequently been modified by Ueshima H et al in 2016 by targeting the injection in the plane between the longissimus and iliocostalis muscles (mTLIP) which helps avoiding the spread of local anesthetics to the ventral ramus and neuraxial space, thus, the modified TLIP block is considered to be a more refined version of the original TLIP block and safer and easier to perform. There are limited number of studies investigating the analgesic efficacy of mTLIP block however, no previous study has demonstrated the ideal local anesthetic volume for this block in lumber spine surgery. Moreover, this technique is considered new regional anesthetic techniques and so both of them should be involved in further studies, on the other hand the comparison between both of them at the same study wasn't discussed before, and so we will proceed at this study.
Patients of breast surgery dated between April 2016 and March 2021 will be scanned in three groups; solely induced general anesthesia, general anesthesia induced with Erector Spinae Plane Block, and general anesthesia induced with Rhomboid Block. The investigators aimed to retrospectively compare the effectiveness of regional anesthesia techniques used in the clinic for postoperative recovery and opioid consumption in patients who underwent breast surgery.
