Filter by:As part of root canal treatment, canals should be sealed to prevent further contaminations. There are multiple accepted techniques to fill-obturate canals. In the past, different obturation techniques have been compared. The most current technique used, a single cone with bioceramic sealer, has not been compared. This clinical investigation will compare the postoperative pain of this technique to another common technique used in our clinic. Postoperative pain after one-visit root-canal treatment on teeth with vital pulps: Comparison of three different obturation techniques.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of different routes of local anaesthesia administration in laparoscopic procedures to reduce post-operative pain (intra-peritoneal infusion of Ropivacaine 0.75%, port site injection of Ropivacaine 0.75% or a combination of both techniques), through a randomized one-center double-blinded study.
This prospective, randomized, double-blinded study is designed to evaluate the postoperative analgesic effect of the continuous infusion of intravenous nefopam in patients undergoing video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS). We hypothesize that the continuous infusion of intravenous nefopam can significantly reduce postoperative opioid consumption and pain severity in patients with VATS.
The aim of this study is to assess the effectiveness of Sublingual Sufentanil Tablets System (SSTS, Zalviso ®) to control postoperative pain after total knee arthroplasty in the context of early rehabilitation program. SSTS is a novel patient controlled analgesia system wich does not require intravenous access, potentially improving pain control and promoting mobilization. SSTS will be randomly compared to nurse-driven oral Oxycodone.
Shoulder arthroscopy is associated with severe postoperative pain. Traditionally, the interscalene approach to the brachial plexus has been employed to manage postoperative pain following shoulder surgery.To provide more complete shoulder joint analgesia, suprascabular nerve block (SSNB) was combined with block of the circumflex nerve which comes from the posterior cord of the brachial plexus that usually gives also upper subscapular, thoracodorsal, lower subscapular and radial nerves.
Knee surgeries are associated with severe postoperative pain. Blocking the femoral nerve (or saphenous nerve) in the adductor canal is increasingly used for knee analgesia. It carries potential benefits that encourage anesthesiologists to do it. It has a motor sparing property. Injection of local anesthetics in this lengthy canal that contains a variable amount of connective or fibrous tissue might lead to a patchy distribution of local anesthetics. Thus, the possibility of incomplete block of the saphenous nerve (most important nerve in knee innervations) cannot be excluded.
The aim of this study is to investigate the impact of using lidocaine patches after cesarean section on pain control and opioid use in the immediate post-operative period. The hypothesis is the use of lidocaine patches in the immediate post-operative period will lead to a decrease in the use of opioids as pain control compared to patients that do not have a lidocaine patch in place. Additionally, the a decrease in the visual analog pain score compared to women who do not use a lidocaine patch in the immediate post-operative period following cesarean delivery is anticipated.
Thoracotomy is one of the most painful surgery. Acute postoperative pain increases postoperative morbidity and prolongs hospital stay and also may lead to developing a chronic pain syndrome. This study aimed to assess the efficacy of continuous rhomboid intercostal and subserratus plane (RISS) block by inserting a catheter under direct vision for controlling acute thoracotomy pain.
The prevalence of hip replacement surgery is increasing nowadays. Patients are usually older age and suffer from comorbidities may be an anesthetic and analgesic challenge. Erector spinae plane block (ESPB) is a newly described technique that is has been demonstrated in previous studies for chronic and acute pain treatment. The exact volume and concentration of local anesthetic (LA) to be used in ESPB is not well established.
Ventral hernia repair is associated with significant postoperative pain, and regional anesthetic techniques are of potential benefit. The postoperative mobility and training is of utmost importance in this patient group, and could be increased using local anesthetics instead of opioids. Inadequate post-operative pain control can lead to adverse consequences for patients, such as the development of chronic pain, immunosuppression, poorer healing of surgical wounds, as well as adrenergic activation and its consequences in the form of coronary incidents or gastrointestinal obstruction and postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV). Moreover, lack of mobility can result in thrombosis and embolism. These complications affect hospital functioning, which leads to decreased patient satisfaction, a worse reputation for the hospital, longer stays in the recovery room, prolonged hospitalizations, higher incidence of re-surgeries and re-admissions, and higher costs for care and treatment. Erector spinae plane block (ESPB) is the latest of the truncal blocks and was first described in 2016. The efficacy of bilateral ESPB at the T7 level has been described in a study of 4 cases, moreover effective analgesia with ESPB after bariatric surgery has been described in a study of 3 cases. When performed at the level of the T7 transverse process, studies show the potential to block both supra-umbilical and infra-umbilical dermatomes. So far there are mostly case studies done in this field of study, and internationally there is a call for research into the effect of this technique and randomized controlled trials. The objective of this study is to compare ESPB to multimodal analgesia in patients undergoing ventral hernia repair.
