Reconstruction of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) of the knee is a painful procedure, and effective postoperative analgesia is important for early return of patient activity.
Objective: The primary aim of this study was to investigate the effect of ketamine and lidocaine on postoperative opioid consumption in posterior spinal fusion surgery. Materials and Methods: Ethics committee approval was received from our faculty. Seventy-five cases between the ages of 18-65, who have an ASA (American Society of Anesthesiologists) risk classification I-II-III in the preanesthetic evaluation, planned to be operated by the Neurosurgery clinic for lumbar posterior spinal fusion surgery under elective conditions have been included in the study after the informed volunteer consent form was read and approved. The patients were randomly divided into 3 groups using the closed envelope method. The ketamine group (Group K) (n = 25), the lidocaine group (Group L) (n = 25) and the placebo group (Group P) (n = 25). Propofol, rocuronium and fentanyl i.v. done. In group K, 0.5 mg / kg i.v. ketamine bolus and 0.25 mg / kg / hr i.v. ketamine infusion was administered. In group L, 1.5 mg / kg i.v. lidocaine bolus and 1.5 mg / kg / hr i.v. lidocaine infusion was administered. In group P, i.v. saline (in the same volume and duration) was applied. Maintenance of anesthesia was provided by propofol and remifentanil infusion. The propofol and remifentanil doses were adjusted according to the BIS monitoring and the increase or decrease in basal blood pressure and heart rate values of 20% or more. The BIS value was kept between 40-60. At the end of surgery, infusions were closed. After extubation, the patients were taken to the recovery room. Patient controlled analgesia (PCA) prepared with fentanyl was applied to the patients for postoperative analgesia. The PCA device was attached for 24 hours postoperatively. Postoperative 0-4 hours, 4-8 hours, 8-24 hours and total fentanyl consumption of the patients were evaluated. Pain scores were measured at 1, 2, 4, 8, 12 and 24 hours in the postoperative recovery room. Intraoperative propofol and remifentanil consumption was recorded. Tramadol 1 mg / kg i.v. as rescue analgesia (in patients with VAS pain score of 4 and above) done. Possible side effects due to opioid, ketamine and lidocaine were followed.
The study is a randomized controlled trial investigating a multimodal postoperative pain management protocol which will include use of ice therapy and scheduled opioid-sparing medications for pain control after minimally invasive gynecologic surgery.
pills go unused, generating waste and leaving an opportunity for misuse and abuse. In a recent study, researchers let patients choose what medications to go home with after surgery. After their thyroid or parathyroid surgery, 96% of patients declined narcotic pain medication. They preferred to manage their pain with acetaminophen instead. Giving patients counseling and empowering them to choose significantly reduces the amount of opioids prescribed and wasted. The aim of our study is to compare a similar "opt-in" protocol for narcotics to usual care (where patients are routinely discharged with opioids). We would elaborate upon the aforementioned study by studying patient pain scores on a more granular level once they return home. Our study will be designed as a randomized, controlled trial. When adult patients consent for a thyroid or parathyroid surgery, they will be asked to participate in the study. Patients who are currently using narcotics would be excluded. We would then randomize participants to the "opt-in" protocol versus being provided with a standard opioid prescription after surgery. Patients in the opt-in protocol will be recommended a pain treatment regimen with over-the-counter medications, such as acetaminophen or ibuprofen. These patients will be reassured that if their pain is uncontrolled after discharge, a narcotic prescription will be called in to their pharmacy if requested. We will assess patient pain scores and medication use in the recovery area using the electronic medical record. We will collect data on patient pain scores and medication use after discharge on a daily basis via phone call or electronically transmitted survey. We will also evaluate patients at the time of their follow-up visits. Any patient phone calls will be routed to study personnel who will fill narcotic prescription requests if requested. Finally, among patients who do receive an opioid prescription, we will track their opioid consumption.
Patients undergoing total shoulder arthroscopic adhesiolysis may experience severe postoperative pain. Inadequate pain management can result in unfavourable hospital outcomes and the development of persistent neuropathic manifestation the aim of the study is to compare both ultrasound techniques (combined individual nerve block to interscalene nerve block) as regards the postoperative analgesic effect and shoulder range of movement.
Fractures of the femur are common orthopaedic emergency especially in the geriatric population and central neuraxial blocks are the preferred technique for providing anaesthesia. However, limb immobility and extreme pain are the deterrents for ideal positioning for these procedures. postoperative pain is a nightmare so adequate analgesia has been advocated to reduce the pain. in this study, Facia Iliaca compartment block will be compared to anterior Quadratus lumborum block, both will be done Ultrasound-guided using Bupivacain0.25% for postoperative analgesia at the end of the surgery.
This study aims to investigate if the combination of metamizole and paracetamol is superior in reducing post-operative pain on day 1 after ambulatory shoulder surgery where the use of NSAIDs is prohibited compared to paracetamol treatment. Therefore, a monocenter, prospective, double-blind, randomized controlled superiority trial will be designed to investigate the superiority of the combination of metamizole and paracetamol compared to paracetamol treatment in patients undergoing arthroscopic shoulder surgery with tendon repair.
To investigate the effect of Mozart music on postoperative pain and physiological parameters in patients after total thyroidectomy.
