View clinical trials related to Postoperative Pain.
Filter by:Laparoscopic surgery is frequently used today for abdominal region operations. Laparoscopy has become the preferred treatment for cholecystectomy. Patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy suffer from acute postoperative pain despite the multimodal analgesic regimen. For this type of surgery, many different field blocks have been used for postoperative analgesia.
The aim of this prospective randomized trial is to compare the efficacy ultrasound guided thoracolumbar interfascial plane block versus bilateral ultrasound guided erector spinae plane block for post-operative pain management after lumbar laminectomy
One hundred and twenty patients at age range from 18 to 60 undergoing laparotomy was enrolled in this study. Patients were randomly assigned to two groups 60 in epidural group and the other 60 patients in rectus catheter group. epidural catheter inserted pre induction but rectus sheath catheter inserted by the surgeon at the end of surgery.
The objective of this study is to investigate whether the addition of immersive virtual reality (VR) in the immediate postoperative period to an enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) protocol could improve postoperative recovery from bariatric surgery.
A single blinded randomized controlled trial. 212 subjects (teeth), 106 in each of the 2 groups will be recruited from the patients referred to Kuwait Board of Endodontics for primary root canal treatment. The aim is to compare the outcome of sealer-based obturation (SBO) with calcium silicate sealer versus warm vertical compaction (WVC) and resin based sealer. Preoperative PA radiograph and CBCT will be taken. A 1 year follow up period will be arranged and another PA radiograph and CBCT will be taken. The preoperative, postoperative and review clinical and radiographic data will be analyzed
Pain after laparoscopy differs considerably from that seen after laparotomy. Laparotomy results mainly in parietal pain (abdominal wall), where as Pain in laparoscopy results from stretching of the intra-abdominal cavity, peritoneal inflammation, and diaphragmatic irritation caused by residual carbon-dioxide in the peritoneal cavity. The transverse abdominis plane (TAP) block is a peripheral nerve block designed to anesthetize the nerves supplying the anterior abdominal wall (T6 to L1). While esmolol is an ultra-short acting intravenous β-blocker having a rapid onset and offset effect. It provides an unprecedented level of tolerability and safety in the perioperative setting. When used as an adjunct, it has been shown to improve the postoperative recovery by reducing postoperative pain intensity and intraoperative anesthetic and opioid requirements and preventing opioid-induced hyperalgesia . The mechanism of this synergistic effect is uncertain, but both pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamics interactions with anesthetic drugs have been proposed.
This randomized clinical trial compares the effects of the erector spinae plane block with levobupivacaine and 0,9% saline on postoperative pain intensity, and opioid consumptions following thoracoscopic pulmonary surgery.
Prospective, randomized, controlled single-blinded trial comparing liposomal bupivacaine with bupivacaine HCl for postoperative management. Upon completion of the forefoot procedure in the operative room the subject will be entered into the randomization system which will specify whether to inject 10cc (5mg/mL) of bupivacaine HCl or 8cc (13.3 mg/mL) liposomal bupivacaine, both considered routine care procedure. Thereafter, postoperative pain will be assessed and measured using a Visual Analog Scale (VAS) scoring scale post-operatively at 2 hours, 24 hours, 48 hours and 72 hours. In addition, the amount of oral morphine equivalents (OME) required postoperatively and time to first use of OME will be measured. Our hypothesis is that patients who received liposomal bupivacaine will have less post-operative pain and require less OMEs.
The Erectore Spinae Plane Block (ESP Block) is a recently described technique for regional anesthesia that has shown promising results in the treatment of pain after thoracic surgery. It involves the injection of local anesthetic behind the musculature of the back. The investigators intend to compare this technique with a more standardized one, the TAP Block, which involves injection of anesthetic behind the musculature of the abdomen. 50 patients undergoing robotic inguinal hernia repair under general anesthesia will be randomly selected to receive, in addition to general anesthesia, either the ESP block or the TAP block. Patients receiving an ESP Block will also receive an injection of saline solution in the TAP injection site, and the other way around. This will prevent preconceived ideas on either technique to influence the evaluationso of the effect. Pain scores and consumption of pain medication will be recorded during the 24 hours following the operation to compare the effect of the two techniques.
Recommendation is strong on physical activity (PA) in the prehabilitation of Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) for various types of surgeries. The evidence is however weak regarding ERAS protocols. Many studies have showed that physical exercise and PA have hypoalgesic effects on healthy individuals and they have better pain tolerance too. Here the investigators study changes in postoperative pain and postoperative nausea and vomiting for various types of surgical patients after performing preoperative PA at moderate or vigorous intensity Vs non-preoperative PA patients.
