Filter by:One of main risk of controlled hypotension during nasal surgeries is impaired perfusion. Peripheral perfusion of non-vital organs usually impaired earlier than vital organs. So, evaluation of perfusion of non-vital organ is considered to be adequate measure of patient safety during surgery. Many hypotensive agents such as dexmedetomidine, B blockers, magnesium sulfate and nitroglycerine had been used but we are in need to investigate its effects on peripheral perfusion. Postoperative pain related to nasal surgeries due to surgical trauma itself which induces the release of inflammatory mediators from neuronal and immune cells resulting in peripheral and central sensitization significantly affects recovery of patients. Magnesium sulfate and labetalol have analgesic actions besides their hypotensive effects but with different mechanisms.
The deficiency of vitamin D is common in patients with gastrointestinal system disorders. Vitamin D has been associated with chronic non-specific musculoskeletal pain and migraines due to anti-inflammatory effects. This prospective observational study will undergo elective laparoscopic cholecystectomy surgery between 18 and 65 years, is planned to participate in ASA (American Society of Anesthesiologists) 1-3, 90 volunteer patients. In preoperative evaluation, the remaining 3 ml of blood was centrifuged from the routine received blood to determine the level of vitamin D will be kept. Postoperative will be applied to patient controlled analgesia to all patients for 24 hours. To determine the level of postoperative pain, the visual analog scale (VAS) will be used in the clock unit and at the service 6, 12 and 24 hours. In this study, the investigators aimed to test the hypothesis of relation to pain and opioid consumption in acute postoperative (24 hours) of perioperative low-vitamin D.
Total knee arthroplasty (TKA); It is frequently applied to adults, especially those over the age of 55. Total knee arthroplasty surgery is among the surgeries with a high satisfaction rate for the patient, although complications can develop and this rate varies between 1.65-11.3%. It has a privileged place in the prevention, early diagnosis and treatment of the problems and complications that may occur. In this way, patients' anxiety will be reduced, self-care competence will be provided, recovery process will be accelerated, quality of life and care satisfaction will increase. In this context, the training, information, skill-building, counseling and care practice that the nurse will provide to the patient; With the results to be obtained from this study, patients with TKA can be given pre-operative and post-operative nursing care using a nurse coaching strategy, and patients' anxiety level, pain control, patient satisfaction It is predicted to have a positive effect on self-care ability and re-hospitalization rates. Thus, it is thought that both quality healthcare services will be provided and will contribute to the creation of evidence-based data. It is thought that the study will also contribute to the dissemination of the pre-operative and postoperative nurse coaching strategy in patients undergoing TKA, and will guide the planning of nursing education. This study is an experimental study to determine the effect of continuous nursing care given with a coaching strategy to patients scheduled for TKA surgery on anxiety, pain, self-care ability, satisfaction, and re-hospitalization. The study will be carried out in Konya Private Hospital. Data collection time is set as September-December 2020. Data will be collected by the researcher using the Diagnostic questionnaire form, State Anxiety Scale, Visual Analog Scale, Newcastle Nursing Care Satisfaction Scale, Modified Barthel index and Self-Care Ability Scale. In this context, the training, information, skill-building, counseling and care practice that the nurse will provide to the patient; It will contribute to achieving the desired results by positively affecting both the success of the surgery and the healing process of the patient.
The ultrasound-guided approach for the blockade of articular branches of femoral and obturator nerves, pericapsular nerve group (PENG) block, is an effective method for postoperative analgesia in hip surgeries.
Background: Thyroid diseases are one of the most common health problems all over the world. After thyroidectomy, patients often experience discomfort such as neck pain, shoulder stiffness, shoulder movement difficulty, choking or pressing feeling. Head-neck stretching exercises provide neuromuscular coordination and flexibility in patients by reducing pain and muscle weakness. Methods: This research was carried out as a pre-test / post-test control group experimental design study in 82 patients in the general surgery clinic of a university hospital in Istanbul
A randomized clinical trial will be performed in parallel, placebo controlled, triple-blind to evaluate the effectiveness of the association Bromelina and Horse-chestnut (titrated in escin) (Noflogo®, Mavenpharma s.r.l., Rome, Italy) in the management of post trauma-surgery following surgery periodontal and implant surgery.
This prospective double-blinded randomized study will be conducted to compare ultrasound-guided intra-articular injection and ultrasound-guided genicular nerve block for postoperative analgesia after knee arthroscopy.
The intra- and peri-articular infiltration of local anaesthetics realized at the end of total hip arthroplasty surgeries is an effective analgesic technique, but it can be insufficient to manage the possibly intense postoperative pain. Regional anaesthesia (RA) like the recently described pericapsular nerve group (PENG) block could provide additional analgesic benefit in this setting. Investigators main objective is to demonstrate the analgesic benefits (postoperative pain score and morphine consumption) of the PENG block when added to intra- and peri-articular infiltration of local anaesthetic following total hip arthroplasty. Investigators make the assumption that i) the PENG bloc could reduce the postoperative 24 first hours morphine consumption by 30%, ii) the PENG block could spare the motor function of the quadriceps and adductor muscles, and iii) the PENG bloc could be well tolerated allowing a high level of patient satisfaction.
Pain is common in the first 2 days after major craniotomy. Inadequate analgesia may lead to an increased risk of postoperative complications. Most pain following craniotomy arises from the pericranial muscles and soft tissues of the scalp. Scalp nerve blocks with local anesthesia seem to provide effective, safe, however transient postoperative analgesia which does not seem to meet the requirements of craniotomy. Currently, peripheral dexamethasone has been observed to significantly prolong the duration of analgesia of nerve blocks (e.g., saphenous nerve block, adductor canal block, thoracic paravertebral block, brachial plexus nerve block). On the contrary, a study reported that perineural dexamethasone did not appear to prolong the analgesic time after supratentorial craniotomy. However, all patients in this study were given 24 mg of oral or intravenous dexamethasone regularly at least 7 days during the perioperative period, which possibly masked the role of single local low doses of perineural dexamethasone. Therefore, the analgesic effect of single dexamethasone for scalp nerve blocks without the backdrop of perioperative glucocorticoid deserves further clarification.
Postoperative pain remains an important challenge for both patients and clinicians. Despite advances in pain management techniques, many patients continue to describe their pain as moderate to severe immediately after surgery. Poor postoperative pain control is associated with increased morbidity, functional impairment, and higher health care costs. While opioids currently represent the mainstay of treating surgical pain, their use is associated with significant side effects including respiratory depression, delayed recovery of bowel function as well as the potential for long-term use. Therefore, there is an urgent need to find new pain relievers with a safer side effect profiles. One such drug that has been receiving increasing attention is ketamine. Previous studies have focused on using intravenous ketamine postoperatively which requires a monitored setting but have ignored the oral form. By using the oral route of administration, ketamine could potentially be used by patients in a less resource-intensive manner with similar efficacy. Therefore, Investigators propose to conduct the Ketamine for Acute Postoperative Analgesia (KAPA) pilot study to examine the role of oral ketamine in improving recovery after spine surgery.
