Filter by:In obese patients, adequate pain relief in the postoperative period is an important parameter that affects patient comfort and hospital stay. Increasing patient comfort and recovery quality can be achieved by avoiding undesirable effects such as nausea, vomiting, and analgesia. This study aimed to evaluate the impact of the external oblique intercostal block postoperative acute pain scores and opioid consumption in the first 24 hours after laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy surgery.
Shoulder surgery can be very painful surgery after which the use of opioids is often required. The well-known side-effects of opioids (e.g. respiratory depression, somnolence, nausea, vomiting, and pruritus) limit their use in so called 'fast track' surgery and anaesthesia programmes. the study aimed to compare the effect of sub omohyoid suprascapular nerve block versus interscalene nerve block in preventing postoperative pain and decreasing analgesic consumption in patients scheduled for shoulder surgery
When a patient is to undergo heart surgery with a sternotomy, a transthoracic block is performed. The thoracic block is an analgesic technique which consists of injecting anesthetic product into the nerves, in order to avoid significant pain. The common technique is to make injections in the sternum by the surgeon. A new, increasingly widespread method is performed by the anesthetist who performs the block under ultrasound. This research project aims to determine if performing this transthoracic block under ultrasound is more effective than injections performed by the surgeon without ultrasound.
The manipulations required during airway management and the different methods of establishing an airway (endotracheal intubation, supraglottic airway device etc) during anesthesia, as well as certain drugs used during anesthesia and sedation, may have an impact to the stomatognathic system. These effects can vary from a subtle temporomandibular joint disc displacement with reduction to the onset of temporomandibular disorders to previously healthy subjects.This observational prospective study aims at investigating the effect of different methods of airway management during anesthesia on the stomatognathic system (including temporomandibular joint, mastication muscles, occlusion etc).
the investigators aim in this study is to determine whether the block is successful in successful infraclavicular brachial plexus blocks performed with USG, according to the change in GSR value in the upper extremity blocked due to sympathetic nerve blockade. Block success will be evaluated by sensory and motor examination of the blocked arm.
Most hip fractures occur in the elderly population. Opioid-related respiratory depression is more common in the elderly population but can cause severe brain damage or death. Reducing the amount of opioids administered before, during and after surgery by adding a regional block may increase the postoperative quality of recovery, reduce chronic pain syndromes, and may potentially facilitate the participation of patients in rehabilitation. Despite their potential advantages, peripheral nerve blocks are still not widely used in people with hip fractures. The primary objective of this study is to compare patients' postoperative pain scores and opioid consumption.
Funnel chest deformation is a painful procedure, which requires high doses and long time used of opioids. It makes difficult introduction of ERAS protocol. Intraoperative cryolesia of intercostal nerves serves great relief of pain after this procedures. However ablation of the nerves needs 12-24 hours to achieve effects. During this time the high doses of opioids are needed. It causes side effects (sedation makes rehabilitation difficult). On the other hand, percutaneus cryoablation performed 12-24 hours before Nuss procedure needs repeated general anaesthesia. The investigators hypothesed that regional analgesia (erector spine plain block) performed just before intraopertive cryolesia may cover time to full cryolesia effect.
Intravenous regional anesthesia (Bier block) is widely used as an anesthetic technique for operations of short duration of the distal upper or lower extremities Today, IVRA is still popular in many countries being used in the emergency room, for outpatients and for high-risk patients with contraindications for general anesthesia.
It was aimed to evaluate the postoperative analgesic efficacy of the suprainguinal fascia iliaca block applied in the postoperative period in terms of 24-hour opioid consumption, pain score, additional analgesic need, and side effects and complications in the postoperative period, and to see the postoperative analgesic effectiveness of this block in patients who underwent knee arthroplasty.
Nowadays, hundreds of information about regional anesthesia are accessed from any internet search engine when a question is written about the methods of anesthesia that can be applied during C/S. This information may have positive or negative effects on the patient, as well as include uncontrolled, unsupervised comments, articles and images. Our aim is primarily to evaluate whether our patients are exchanging information via social media or the internet and the effects of these shares on their concerns.
