Filter by:This study aims to compare the effect of ultrasound-guided erector spinae plane block and interthoracic intercostal nerve block in thoracic surgery. Interthoracic intercostal nerve block is a routine procedure during the surgery by the surgeon in our hospital, and ultrasound-guide erector spinae plane block is a relative new developed regional analgesia technique introduced since 2016 and mainly done by anesthesiologists. Both technique provide analgesic effect to some extent and reduce opiate consumption and side effects. However, no previous literature or research compare the effect of these two technique in thoracic surgery. The primary endpoint of our study is compare morphine consumption and pain score between patients undergo ESP block and patients undergo ICNB after thoracic surgery; the second endpoint is to compare the recovery condition evaluated by QoR-15 questionaire 24 hours after surgery.
Anxiety and apprehension are common among patients prior to surgery. This anxiety can lead to additional discomfort, increased pain sensation and increased stress symptoms. Virtual exposure has proven to be successful in exposure therapy for the treatment of the narrowest patients. Patients are not confronted with the real stimuli or situations that trigger the branches, but with virtual representations of them. Virtual reality (VR) makes it possible to create scenarios that would not be possible in reality because of the organisational, time or financial expenditure involved.The effectiveness of virtual stimulus exposure is well documented, especially in the case of object or situation-related fears in the context of specific phobias. It is therefore obvious that virtual stimulus exposure could also be suitable for minimising operation-associated fears.The research project described is designed to investigate the effect of virtual stimulus exposure on perioperative anxiety. For this purpose, a virtual tour of the operating setting has been created, which enables patients to explore the surroundings in detail by means of VR glasses.
THR (Total Hip Replacement) can be very painful and regional anesthesia is very effective in reducing postoperative pain. Fascia Iliaca Block (FIB) and Erector Spinae Plane Block (ESPB) are indirect approaches to the lumbar plexus that resulted to be very promising for THR. However, no studies investigated the analgesic superiority of either FIB or ESPB. In our study the investigators compare FIB and ESPB in terms of pain relief expressed as morphine consumption in the first 24 hours after primary THR.
MR-107A-01 is being studied to investigate its efficacy, safety, and dose-response after dental surgery.
To evaluate the efficacy of bilateral continuous erector spinae blocks (BESB) for postoperative analgesia in children and adolescents undergoing cardiac surgical procedures via sternotomy in the Early Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) program in a single arm, open label, interventional study.
The aim of this study is to clinically compare the incidence of post-operative pain after using rotary glide path file (Neoniti GPS), on post-operative pain when compared to manual glide path preparation in lower molars with asymptomatic non-vital pulp.
Despite many regional anesthetic techniques have been described for anesthesia of the brachial plexus which is responsible for the sensory and motor innervation of entire upper limb, still, supraclavicular block (SCB) is the regional anesthetic technique of choice. SCB has been described as the spinal anesthesia of the upper limb as it offers dense anesthesia of the brachial plexus for the surgical procedures below the arm from elbow to hand. Although the SCB has a high incidence of complications like pneumothorax, the use of ultrasound-guided block improved the safety for the patient. There are several adjuvants have been added to SCB aiming for prolongation of the duration of peripheral nerve block as fentanyl, alpha 2 adrenergic agonist (Dexmedetomidine, Clonidine), tramadol, ketorolac and Magnesium sulfate. Magnesium has anti-nociceptive effects in animal and human models, principally related to blocking the N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptors and regulation of calcium influx into cells. Calcium influx leads to a sequence of central sensitization such as windup phenomenon and long term potentiation which are crucial mechanisms that determine the duration and intensity of post-operative pain. Magnesium prevents central sensitization triggered by peripheral nociceptive stimulation in response to painful stimuli. Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory drugs (NSAID) inhibit synthesis of prostaglandins from arachnoid acid in phospholipid membranes resulting in decreased afferent nociceptive signals from the site of surgery. There are a lot of studies supported the analgesic effect when NSAIDs are concentrated at a peripheral site compared to the systemic administration therapy. Ketorolac is a parenteral NSAIDs. Studies have shown that ketorolac as an adjuvant to local anesthetics during peripheral nerve block enhanced duration and quality of analgesia.
The aim of the present study is to evaluate and compare the analgesic effect of ultrasound-guided Quadratus Lumborum Block with ultrasound-guided Transversus Abdominis plane block in pediatric Laparoscopic lower abdominal surgeries
In this prospective randomized trial, investigators compared the analgesic effect of subanesthetic dose of ketamine versus placebo in parturients undergoing cesarean section under spinal anesthesia.
The aim of this study is to Investigate the analgesic efficacy of adding ketamine compared to neostigmine to local anesthetic in Ultrasound guided Serratus anterior plane block for patients undergoing Modified Radical Mastectomy.
