Filter by:Irrigation with sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) during chemo-mechanic preparation for effective root canal disinfection is a standard protocol in root canal treatment. NaOCl is an alkali irrigant with pH 11.0 -12.0. Nearby its high antimicrobial efficacy, cytotoxic features make it questionable when it comes contact with periradicular tissues. Several irrigation materials were investigated less cytotoxic, more or equal antimicrobial to avoid such adverse effects. Calcium hypochlorite, chlorhexidine, chitosan and antibiotics are some of the chemicals tested. Laser is not a chemical but its action may show antibacterial effect. Studies showed that Er,Cr:YSGG laser is strongly antibacterial against Enterococcus faecalis biofilm. This antibacterial effect were frequently obtained with laser activated irrigation (LAI) or photon-induced photoacoustic streaming (PIPS) in the literature. The aim of this study was to evaluate whether disinfection procedure with laser provides more or less benefit in terms of postoperative pain when compared with the conventional NaOCl irrigation method.
The primary aim this prospective, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial is to compare the analgesic effects of preemptive intravenous paracetamol and ibuprofen on headache and myalgia, and secondary aim is to evaluate the effects on hemodynamics, duration of seizure and postoperative side effects in patients who underwent electroconvulsive therapy .
The importance of multimodal analgesia for postoperative pain management is well known and regional anesthesia techniques are commonly prefferred to provide better analgesia. Erector spinae plane block (ESB) is a new defined and effective regional anesthesia technique. But two injections can be unconfortable for some patients. With this study, we aimed to compare the analgesia effect of bilateral and unilateral ESP block for laparoscopic cholecystectomy.
This study aims to evaluate the efficacy of IV Ibuprofen versus IV Acetaminophen in the reduction of pain following orthopedic low extremity procedures
Quadratus lumborum block as an alternative for postoperative analgesia compared with epidural block
Aim to study the efficacy of co-administered Dexmedetomidine Or Clonidine with Bupivacaine and that of bupivacaine 0.25% alone for Transversus Abdominis Plane (TAP) Block for Postoperative Analgesia in Patients Undergoing Elective Caesarean Section. - Group 1: bupivacaine 0.25% + Dexmedetomidine 0.5 mcg/kg (a total volume of 40 ml (20 ml each side) was used for the TAP block.) - Group 2: 20 ml bupivacaine+1ug/kg clonidine bilaterally (a total volume of 40 ml (20 ml each side) was used for the TAP - Group3: bupivacaine 0.25% + placebo (a total volume of 40 ml (20 ml each side) was used for the TAP A prospective Randomized Interventional double-blind study.
The aim to study the efficacy of bupivacaine 0.25% with dexamethasone and that of bupivacaine 0.25% alone for erector spinae plane block for postoperative analgesia in patients undergoing total abdominal hysterectomy Group 1: bupivacaine 0.25% + dexamethasone 8 mg - Group 2: bupivacaine 0.25% - Group3: control group A prospective Randomized Interventional double-blind study.
In the postanesthetic care unit(PACU), patients who are recovering from anesthesia are not easy to communicate with. Accordingly, accurate evaluation of acute surgical pain is difficult for PACU patients in spite of severe postoperative pain. Therefore, pain evaluation is clinically important and challenging in PACU. The pain evaluation tool should be simple and easy to understand for accurate assessment. Among the most commonly used pain assessment methods are numerical rating scale(NRS), visual analogue scale(VAS) and verbal rating scale(VRS). These three methods have proved valid for clinical situations in many studies. VRS appears to be easier to understand than the other two methods for patients in PACU. The purpose of this study is to compare NRS and VRS in PACU patients.
Patients will be randomized into 2 groups: - Vit E group: Vitamin E ointment will be applied over staple lines and anastomoses - Control group: Vitamin E will not be applied Postoperative pain will be assessed 24 hours after surgery.
The numeric rating scale (NRS), one of the most widely used pain scales in clinical practice, although convenient, is often subject to bias because it requires abstract thinking from both the patient and the evaluator. Compared to numbers, traumatic pain, when visualized appropriately, has potential advantage as a means to indicate and communicate the severity of pain. Given that they are standardized in terms of body parts, wound size, and bleeding volume, illustrations of traumatic pain along with external somatic stimuli that caused it can be used to serve as effective visual anchors to supplement a pain scale by giving more concrete information to the patient. The purpose of this study is to develop Seoul National University Illustrated Pain Scale(SNUIPS) using pictures of traumatic pain, and verify the validity and effectiveness of this scale in comparison with those of NRS.
