Filter by:Combined spinal epidural (CSEA) and single shot spinal anesthesia (SSSA) are both well-established anesthetic methods for caesarean section. CSEA combines the advantages of spinal anesthesia for the surgery, and epidural anesthesia for postoperative pain management. The aim of this randomized trial was to compare analgesia and patient satisfaction with CSEA continuous epidural administration of local anesthetics versus SSSA with oral pain medication in the postoperative period.
Stimulation of acupoint LI4 has been shown to result in analgesic effects in patients experiencing acute pain. We aimed to determine whether LI4 acupuncture could reduce pain and distress in children receiving an injection of a local anaesthetic (LA). Children scheduled for dental treatment using local anesthesia as a standard treatment, received bilateral acupuncture at LI4 using indwelling fixed needles. During the treatment, the parents of the patients stimulated the needles by massage. Two different treatment regimes were compared: a standardized LA injection given 5 minutes after acupuncture, and an LA injection without acupuncture. The order of treatment was randomised, with the two treatments performed on different days. Pain intensity during LA injection, assessed by the patient with the Verbal Rating Scale or Faces Pain Scale (0-10), was used as the primary endpoint. Parent- and dentist-assessed pain intensity and agitation, heart rate, and the patients' satisfaction with the received therapy were also recorded.
Pelvic organ prolapse occurs with descent of one or more pelvic structures: the uterus and/or cervix, bowel, bladder, or rectum. Although options for treatment include expectant management, pelvic floor physical therapy, and pessary (intravaginal device) use, surgery is the only option which potentially offers a cure. It is well known that women with pelvic organ prolapse are at risk of developing new stress urinary incontinence symptoms after prolapse surgery. Stress urinary incontinence is defined as involuntary loss of urine with an increase in intra-abdominal pressure, such as sneezing, coughing, or laughing. Previous studies have demonstrated that the addition of a prophylactic anti-incontinence procedure at the time of prolapse surgery reduces this risk. One example of such a procedure is a mesh sling placed underneath the urethra (midurethral sling). Nevertheless, the decision to place a midurethral sling to prevent stress urinary incontinence after prolapse surgery remains controversial. A new risk calculator tool has been developed to provide patients' with their individualized risk of developing de novo stress urinary incontinence after prolapse surgery. The primary objective of this study is to determine whether use of this new personalized online risk calculator tool increases patient satisfaction with the decision whether or not to have a midurethral sling placed at the time of prolapse surgery to prevent development of stress urinary incontinence. The investigators hypothesize that use of this tool will increase patient satisfaction with their decision regarding midurethral sling placement.
Prospective explorative study for the investigation of short-term and medium-term outcomes regarding bone mineral density changes after revision hip arthroplasty making use of bone impaction grafting. Outcome measurements will include objective and subjective clinical data, complications and adverse events, radiographic data measurements recorded at several postoperative intervals.
The purposes of the ESPELMA project are twofold: 1) To increase acute spinal cord injury patients' satisfaction with treatment while hospitalization and 2) To increase mastery among rehabilitation professionals with regard to the clinical management of patients' psychological distress. For these purposes, a tailored training for professionals will be designed and offered. It is hypothesized that building capacity among professionals will serve to better management of patients' distress and a greater ability to commit them to the rehabilitation process. Thus, it is expected to lead to better and faster functional recovery and consequently to higher perceived satisfaction with treatment.
Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography(ERCP) and related procedures can cause abdominal pain and discomfort. Some clinical trials have indicated, using the visual analogue scale (VAS) score, that CO2 insufflation during ERCP ameliorates the suffering of patients without complications, compared with air insufflation. However, differences in patient suffering between CO2 and air insufflation after ERCP depending on sedation protocols have not been reported. We therefore planned prospective, double-blind, randomized, controlled study with CO2 and air insufflation during ERCP depending on sedation protocol.
The aim of this study is to determine if the insertion of the linear endobronchial ultrasound bronchoscope is more comfortable for patients when done through the nose compared to its insertion through the mouth. Our hypothesis is that nasal insertion is more comfortable.
Patients will be satisfied with the immediate loading protocol of two implants joined to a complete mandibular overdenture.
Previous studies have shown that paravertebral block (PVB) has the potential to reduce pain and side effects after breast surgery when used in addition to general anesthesia or sedation.The investigators would like to further discern the impact of GA or PVB on the postoperative QoR, pain and satisfaction.
The purpose of this study is to conduct a randomized clinical trial of a web-based contraceptive decision aid compared to routine contraceptive counseling to evaluate the effect of the contraceptive decision aid on the contraceptive method selected by the participant. The investigators primary hypothesis is that women utilizing a computerized Contraceptive Decision Aid (CDA) will be more likely to choose highly effective contraception than women who undergo standard clinical contraceptive counseling.
