Filter by:This study aims to evaluate the safety and efficacy of virtual postoperative visits as compared to in-office postoperative visits for patients undergoing minimally invasive hysterectomy. The investigators hypothesize that virtual visits will be non-inferior to in-person visits in terms of patient satisfaction. The primary objective for this study is to evaluate patient satisfaction of the postoperative visit experience, as measured by the Press Ganey Medical Practice Survey and Medical Practice Telemedicine Survey. The secondary objectives include evaluating the incidence of a new diagnosis of a postoperative complication requiring medical treatment (e.g. calling in of a prescription), an office visit with CNP or MIGS surgeon, or an urgent care or ER visit. Post-operative complications include infection (urinary, pulmonary, wound, pelvic abscess, and bloodstream), thromboembolic events, bleeding; and issues with wound healing, such as dehiscence. The investigators will record no-show rates, visit times, and estimated travel distance as measured by distance of home to clinic site.
In the 1970s-1980s, Dr. Donald Lalonde (surgeon, Canada) developed an anesthetic technique for hand surgery called WALANT (Wide Awake Local Anesthesia No Tourniquet). This technique is based on the joint administration of a local anesthetic (lidocaine) and epinephrine (adrenaline), which limits bleeding and makes it possible to dispense with a tourniquet. In addition, and contrary to truncal anesthesia, this combination of drugs infiltrated opposite the surgical site preserves the mobility of the limb. However, this technique is not without risk and some adverses events have been reported: intoxication by local anesthetics due to overdose and digital necrosis with the use of procaine or cocaine. Currently in France, truncal anesthesia with a pneumatic tourniquet on the arm is often preferred for hand surgery (axillary block or BAx). In this case, the pneumatic tourniquet is used to minimize intraoperative blood loss and improve the visibility of the operating field. However, it can be a source of discomfort, pain, or transient neurological deficit. To date, few studies comparing WALANT and BAx are available and none have evaluated the perioperative experience of patients and the incidence of paresthesias in the short and long term. In order to measure the perioperative satisfaction of patients undergoing hand surgery with BAx or WALANT, we conduct a prospective observational non-randomized study evaluating the EVAN-LR satisfaction score at D0. The secondary objectives of the study are to evaluate postoperative adverse events (digital necrosis, paresthesias, local anesthetic intoxications, infection of the operated limb), consumption of postoperative analgesic treatments in both groups.
In intramuscular injection applications, which are among the responsibilities and basic skills of nurses, different methods are used to reduce the pain caused by injection and increase the individual's satisfaction. ShotBlocker and local vibration are among the methods used for this purpose. The aim of the study is to examine the effectiveness of ShotBlocker and local vibration, which are among the non-pharmacological methods, on the perceived pain and satisfaction during ventrogluteal intramuscular antibiotic injection. This randomized, controlled experimental study will be carried out in the adult emergency clinic of a training and research hospital in Istanbul between February and April 2021.
The study aimed to determine the effects of different birthing balls used at the first stage of childbirth on birth outcomes and maternal satisfaction. Randomized controlled, single-blind clinical study included a total of 180 pregnant women. The study included 3 groups (A: routine hospital care, B: spherical birthing ball, C: peanut ball). Especially spherical birthing ball, were effective in reducing labor pain and facilitating faster rate of descent of the fetal head, and they increased maternal satisfaction.
The evolving reports form recent studies are creating a promise on the potential use of dextrose injections for treating arthritis and replacing current method of treating early osteoarthritis by corticosteroids by giving long standing effect and improving patients' symptoms and function. Over the past 5 years, an increasing number of level I and level II studies have emerged, examining the effect of intra-articular prolotherapy for the treatment of both hip and knee osteoarthritis. On the contrary, there is limited data in small joints, such as the temporomandibular joint.
Compare the experience of patients receiving an "optimized" preoperative anesthesia consultation (PAC) performed by a Nurse Anesthetist (supervised by an anesthetist) to those receiving a "standard" CSA ( CSA by an anesthetist alone).
Surgical patients undergo preoperative counseling which varies in quality and duration. Proper communication during the preoperative consultation can deliver relevant health information and guide improvement of perioperative health status. The methods, however, are non-standardized and the explanation of the postoperative course is generally vague or varies from person to person. We hypothesize that high-risk patients who receive pre-operative counseling with the help of the NSQIP surgical risk calculator compared to the current standard of care will have higher satisfaction concerning information on the perioperative journey.
Our aim was to investigate whether remifentanil use in both infusion and bolus techniques could provide sufficient sedation and analgesia without serious adverse effects for central venous access device procedures under monitored anesthesia care.
The purpose of this research study is to examine the relationship between personal characteristics and satisfaction with care in those diagnosed with Parkinson's disease during the COVID-19 pandemic. Participants will take 4 different surveys regarding their satisfaction with care throughout the duration of the COVID-19 pandemic. The surveys in total should not take more than 30 minutes to complete
In this study, we aimed to compare three mechanical methods such as foley catheter, cook balloon catheter and modified double-balloon Foley catheter for cervical ripening in terms of patient satisfaction
