Filter by:A prospective study of 30 patients with severe postoperative pain following abdominal surgery, in which the dual TAP block technique has been used successfully to achieve pain relief. A description of ultrasound technique, effectiveness, duration and potential side effects of the pain treatment, with possible recommendations for future use.
Dexamethasone has been reported to reduce postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) after laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC). However, its effects on other surgical outcomes such as pain and fatigue have been unclear. We evaluated the efficacy of preoperative dexamethasone in ameliorating postoperative symptoms after LC. Methods: Prospective, double-blind, placebo-controlled study, 210 patients scheduled for elective LC were analyzed after randomization to intravenous dexamethasone (8 mg) or to a placebo. All patients underwent standardized procedures for general anesthesia and surgery. Episodes of PONV and pain and fatigue scores were recorded on a visual analogue scale. Analgesic and antiemetic requirements were also recorded.
The purpose of this study is to compare the effects and side effects of interscale block performed with Naropin 0.1% cum sufentanil or Naropin 0.1% in shoulder surgery.
The objective of the study is to examine the effect of the addition of intravenous dexamethasone 1.5 hours prior to induction of anesthesia on the post-operative opioid consumption, pain scores, fatigue, and recovery in patients undergoing gynecological surgery with laparotomy under general anesthesia. This is a dose finding study with two different doses (0.1 mg/kg vs. 0.2 mg/kg) of dexamethasone to find out the optimal efficacious dose of dexamethasone with minimal side effects. Dexamethasone has anti-inflammatory, immunomodulatory, and analgesic effects; and is superior to placebo in providing post-operative pain control, lower analgesic consumption, prevention of postoperative nausea and vomiting, lesser post-operative fatigue, and better recovery profile. No dose response study has been done. The investigators hypothesize that a higher dose of dexamethasone may have an incremental beneficial effect.
In a randomized, double-blind, cross-over trial, 48 patients scheduled for total knee arthroplasty with placement of an intracapsular catheter will be randomized to receive bolus injection of ropivacaine in high volume/low concentration (20 ml, 5 mg/mL) or low volume/high concentration (10 mL, 10 mg/mL) 6 and 24 hours postoperatively, and pain will be assessed at rest and with mobilization for 2 hours after injections.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of fentanyl in opioid-naive participants with post-herpetic neuralgia, complex regional pain syndrome or post-operative pain syndrome who cannot obtain a sufficient analgesic effect by the treatment of non-opioid analgesics (drug used to control pain).
The objective is to identify the optimal dose of SABER-Bupivacaine for postoperative pain control in patients undergoing elective arthroscopic shoulder surgery on the basis of pharmacokinetics, efficacy and safety evaluations. The study duration consists of a screening period up to 14 days and a treatment period 14 days with a long term follow up visit at 6 months. The study will provide further data on safety.
The objective is to identify the optimal dose of SABER-Bupivacaine for postoperative pain control in patients undergoing hysterectomy on the basis of pharmacokinetics, efficacy and safety evaluations. The study duration consists of a screening period up to 14 days and a treatment period 14 days with a long term follow up visit at 6 months. The study will provide further data on the efficacy and safety of the product.
The study will assess the analgesic efficacy and safety and tolerability of a single oral dose of SAF312 in postoperative dental pain patients after 3rd molar extraction.
To the investigators' knowledge, no study has looked at differences in postoperative pain when comparing maintenance of anesthesia with isoflurane, desflurane, sevoflurane, and propofol in laparoscopic cholecystectomy. The investigators' hypothesis is that total intravenous anesthesia with propofol will lead to less postoperative pain in the first 24 hours after laparoscopic cholecystectomy when compared to maintenance of anesthesia with isoflurane, desflurane or sevoflurane. PURPOSE To find out if maintenance of anesthesia with propofol leads to less postoperative pain after laparoscopic cholecystectomy when compared to maintenance of anesthesia with isoflurane, desflurane, or sevoflurane.
