Filter by:Background: Although Inguinal herniotomy in children is taken as a day care procedure, post-operative pain management still remain controversial in these cases and superiority of wound infiltration, caudal block or regional block over each isn't known. Objective: The objective of the study was compare regional block, caudal block and wound infiltration for post-operative pain management in children undergoing inguinal herniotomy
This study aims to analyze the effect of laparoscopic guided transversus abdominis plane (LG-TAP) block compared to placebo for postoperative analgesia following laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy. One group of participants received a (LG-TAP) block with local anesthetic while the other group received (LG-TAP) block with saline solution (placebo).
Postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) affects all age groups and can lead to increased morbidity and more extended hospital stays. Dexmedetomidine reduces POCD by inhibiting the increase in proinflammatory cytokines IL-6 and TNF-α, and its anti-inflammatory activity contributes to its protective effect. Previous studies found that dexmedetomidine reduced POCD incidence in non-cardiac and cardiac surgery. Therefore, the goal of this study was to specifically investigate if using TCI dexmedetomidine to maintain anaesthesia in laparotomy surgeries reduces the incidence of POCD compared to inhalation anaesthesia by sevoflurane.
This study aims to assess the effectiveness and safety of a hydrogen carbamide/peroxide gel, called UNISEPT® ORAL GEL, in promoting oral wound healing, alleviating postoperative symptoms, and enhancing oral hygiene. Study participants will include individuals with any suspicious lesion in their gums or the roof of their mouth. They will undergo a procedure to remove a small piece of tissue for testing (biopsy) in order to confirm the diagnosis.This is a standardized diagnostic procedure that involves the use of a punch, which is a plastic handpiece with a cylindrical cutting blade. Subsequently, the wound heals naturally without the need for sutures. Researchers are comparing this gel with a placebo (a look-and-taste-alike substance that contains no active ingredients) to see if it is helpful with healing of wounds in the mouth and associated symptoms, improving oral hygiene. Participants randomly get the hydrogen carbamide/peroxide gel or the placebo one to use for 14 days after the biopsy. The researchers will not know which one they are providing as the gel tubes will be identical. Oral wound healing, postoperative symptoms (such as pain, eating and speech difficulties), oral hygiene (dental plaque and gingival inflammation) and quality of life are assessed during a 14-day period after the biopsy. Participants are required to visit the clinic three times, one for the initial biopsy, one at 7 days and one at 14 days after the biopsy. They are asked to fill in some questionnaires, while certain procedures (taking a photo the site of the biopsy) and assessments (like evaluating the dental plaque and gingival inflammation) take place. During the first week they, also, keep a diary of their symptoms, as instructed.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of a hydrogen carbamide/peroxide mouthwash, named UNISEPT® MOUTHWASH, regarding oral wound healing, postoperative symptoms, xerostomia (dry mouth) and oral hygiene improvement. Study participants have reported dry mouth and are scheduled for a diagnostic biopsy of minor labial salivary glands to investigate Sjögren's Syndrome, following consultation with their rheumatologist. This is a standardized diagnostic procedure that leads to healing by primary intention (i.e. wound edges are closely re-approximated with sutures). Researchers are comparing this mouthwash with a placebo (a look-and-taste-alike substance that contains no active ingredients) to see if it is helpful with healing of wounds in the mouth and associated symptoms, improving dry mouth and/or oral hygiene. Participants randomly get the hydrogen carbamide/peroxide mouthwash or the placebo one to use for 14 days after the biopsy. The investigators will not know which one they are providing as the bottles will be identical. Oral wound healing, postoperative symptoms (such as pain, eating and speech difficulties), oral hygiene (dental plaque and gingival inflammation), improvement of dry mouth and quality of life are assessed during a 14-day period after the biopsy. Participants are required to visit the clinic three times, one for the initial consultation and the biopsy, one at 7 days and one at 14 days after the biopsy. They are asked to fill in some questionnaires, while certain procedures (such as measuring saliva) and assessments (like evaluating the dental plaque and gingival inflammation) take place. During the first week they, also, keep a diary of their symptoms, as instructed.
The aim of this prospective randomized study was to compare the effectiveness of subcostal transversus abdominis plane block or rectus sheath block applied in addition to posterior transversus abdominis plane block for postoperative analgesia in major gynecological cancer surgeries. The main question(s) it aims to answer are: [Is subcostal transversus abdominis plane block more effective in postoperative analgesia? ] [Is there a difference in pain scores at 24 hours after surgery? ] Since pain scores within the first 24 hours after surgery will be evaluated, participants will be asked to give a value between 0 and 10 at certain time periods.
Prospective Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial to Compare Intrathecal Dexmedetomidine Versus Midazolame in Orthopedic Cancer Surgeries
Background: Percutaneous A1 pulley release is a cost-effective and straightforward procedure with outcomes comparable to open A1 pulley release. Postoperative pain is a prevalent concern. Corticosteroid injection is a common nonoperative treatment for trigger finger, providing favorable outcomes but associated with a notable risk of recurrence. Numerous studies have explored the combined approach of percutaneous trigger finger release with corticosteroid injection. However, to date, there is no report on early postoperative results. Objective: To conduct a comparative analysis of early postoperative outcomes between percutaneous A1 pulley release with steroid injection and percutaneous A1 pulley release alone. Study Design & Methods: This study constitutes a randomized controlled trial involving patients with trigger finger who underwent percutaneous release surgery from October 2023 to January 2024. A total of 38 patients were enrolled, with 18 assigned to the percutaneous A1 pulley release with steroid injection group and 20 to the percutaneous A1 pulley release alone group. Postoperative assessments included pain scores using the Visual Analog Scale (VAS), evaluation of quality of life through the QuickDASH score (qDASH), patient satisfaction, and complications.
The goal of this observational study is to to evaluate the effects of a throat pack soaked with saline at +4 ºC on postoperative throat pain (POTP) and postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) in dental surgical procedures performed under general anesthesia. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. How long can we keep the pharyngeal mucosa cold using tampons and cold wash solutions? 2. Does cooling the pharyngeal mucosa reduce the incidence of postoperative sore throat and nausea and vomiting?
Clavicular fractures represent a common occurrence often necessitating effective pain management strategies, particularly following surgical interventions. This study involved a cohort of five patients who underwent clavicular fracture surgery under general anesthesia. A novel analgesic approach combining two distinct nerve block techniques-Serratus Posterior Superior Intercostal Plane Block (SPSIPB) and Clavipectoral Plane Block (CPB)-was employed for postoperative pain control. The procedural methodology encompassed the administration of SPSIPB preceding anesthesia induction, followed by CPB subsequent to induction. SPSIPB targeted specific neural regions responsible for sensory blockade within the innervation of the clavicular skin, whereas CPB focused on the clavipectoral fascia. Standard anesthesia protocols were utilized, and postoperative pain levels were evaluated using Numeric Rating Scores (NRS).
