Filter by:Breast cancer is one of the most common types of cancer among women worldwide. (1) Breast-conserving surgery or mastectomy is indicated for the majority of patients with this type of cancer. (2) Postoperative pain is frequent in this population, with almost 50 % experiencing acute pain and 25-60 % subsequently live with chronic pain. (3-5) Today no golden standard for postoperative pain management regarding breast cancer surgeries exists, and there is definitely room for improvement. Especially considering the large population of women with breast cancer and consequences of acute and chronic pain, such as prolonged recovery and affected quality of life. (6,7) With the present study, we aim to optimise postoperative pain treatment and investigate the effect of a standardised multimodal postoperative analgesic regimen based on previous recommendations.

Anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) is a surgical tissue graft replacement of the anterior cruciate ligament, located in the knee, to restore its function after an injury. ACLR is used as the gold standard in coping with pain, deformity, and instability for the patients. The most important factors affecting the success of both surgery and postoperative rehabilitation programs are edema, joint movement limitation and pain around the knee in the early postoperative period. If these parameters are managed well in the postoperative period, the quality of life of the patient increases much earlier. In this respect, kinesio taping treatment, which is practical, comfortable, and safe for the patient, is one of the complementary treatment modalities with positive clinical results. No researchers have studied the effects of Sterile Kinesio Tape applied during ACL reconstruction on edema, pain and range of motion in immediate care postoperatively. The purpose of our study İS to assess effects of Sterile Kinesio Tape application on postoperative edema, pain and range of motion after ACLR within 72 hours. Thirty-seven patients who have undergone ACLR will be recruited to our study. Patients will be randomized into 2 groups; Group 1: Sterile Kinesio tape application, Group 2: Control group. All patients will be assessed for pain intensity (with Visual Analog Scale-VAS), edema (with tape measurement) and range of motion (with goniometric measurement-knee flexion/extension). Assessments will be done every day for 3 days (a total of 3 measurements). Group 1 will receive Sterile Kinesio Taping application within 72 hours applied with Sterile Web Cut Kinesio Tape without tension additional to standard during ACLR postoperative care. Group 2 will receive only standard postoperative care.
Patients were randomly allocated to either Tansversus group (T group) and general anesthesia (N group).Patient demographic data, preoperative medical status, left ventricular function, and operative data (total ischemic time, number of grafts) were recorded. The primary outcome of the study was Percentage of patients needed additional doses of morphine . The secondary outcomes included postoperative visual analogue pain scores performed after patient extubation for pain assessment at rest (0 = no pain, 10 = maximum unbearable pain) at time of extubation, 8h, 12 h,18 h and 24 hours postoperatively were recorded, when pain score >4, patients were given morphine 0.05 mg/kg administered by a physician who was blinded to the nature of the study, time needed for first rescue analgesic, postoperative blood pressure and heart rate were recorded immediately on admission then 2 hours, 4 hours, 6 hours, 12 and 24 hours postoperatively, in addition to extubation time, length of ICU stay, the incidence of complications related to the technique such as hemothorax or pneumothorax, arrhythmias, and local anesthetic toxicity were recorded. The end-point was difficult weaning from cardiopulmonary bypass, major postoperative bleeding which required re-exploration or allergy to any agents needed for anesthesia. All complications were managed according to surgical and medical guidelines.
The study analysed direct levobupivacaine instillation in surgical wound and its effectiveness in postoperative pain control. Half participants received 0,5 % levobupivacaine and the other half received 0,9% saline solution
The Lichtenstein technique for hernia repair is safe and simple, but the underlying mesh prosthesis has its setbacks, as it acts as a mechanical barrier5. The mesh does not provide mobile and the physiologically dynamic posterior wall. The most dangerous complication associated with the mesh prosthesis is its migration from the abdominal cavity's primary implantation site. The relatively knew technique developed by Dr. Desarda does not utilize the synthetic mesh rather it uses a strip of external oblique aponeurosis to strengthen the posterior wall. Our study has compared the two methods regarding various aspects.
The study attempts to quantify the relative risks for chronic postoperative inguinal pain (CPIP) after Lichtenstein repair of groin hernia, depending on mesh type and fixation suture material. For this purpose the investigators will analyze data from the Swedish Hernia Registry (SHR).
The study attempts to quantify the relative risks for chronic postoperative inguinal pain (CPIP) depending on different combinations of mesh and mesh fixation. For this purpose the investigators will analyze data from the Swedish Hernia Registry (SHR).
The rationale of this study was to compare the efficacy of peri-tract bupivacaine infiltration with intravenous post-operative analgesia following PCNL in reference to the context with the previous studies so that we can adopt the better technique to curtail the post-operative pain.
This is a randomized, single blinded, placebo-controlled trial to study the effectiveness of a subanesthetic dose (0.6mg/kg) of ketamine versus placebo (saline) on postoperative pain on adult women undergoing mastectomy. The objective of the study is to examine the effect of a subanesthetic dose (0.6mg/kg) of ketamine vs. saline control on postoperative pain in subjects who have undergone mastectomy.
This study was conducted to determine the effect of progressive relaxation exercises with music therapy on sleep quality and pain severity of patients hospitalized in the surgical departments of a university hospital.This single-blind, pre-test-post-test with control group design quasi-experimental study was carried out between March-July 2019. 31 patients who were hospitalized in surgical departments for at least one week and regularly performed relaxation exercises consisted of experimental group, and 31 patients who were hospitalized for at least one week but did not do relaxation exercises consisted of control group. The study data were collected by using "Descriptive Characteristics Form", pain severity of patients was measured using "Visual Analogue Scale", and sleep quality of patients was measured using "Visual Analogue Sleep Scale". The patients were asked to perform the exercises with music an average of 30 min before sleeping every day for a week. The observation of the nurse working in department and the patient's statement were used for control. The ethical permission and the approval of hospital management were obtained for the study. In the statistical analysis of the data, independent sample t test, one-way anova and paired sample t test were used. Statistical significance level was taken as p<.05.
