Filter by:This is a randomized-controlled prospective study to be conducted at Danbury Hospital and Norwalk Hospital to compare postoperative opioid consumption and pain scores of patients with suspected or known gynecologic malignancies undergoing midline laparotomy who received TAP block with liposomal bupivacaine versus surgical site infiltration of liposomal bupivacaine. Primary outcome: Total postoperative opioid consumption as measured by morphine equivalents over 48 hour period. Secondary outcomes include: Pain scores (based on visual analog scale 1-10) at 2 hours, 6 hours, 12 hours, 24 hours and 48 hours postoperatively at rest and upon exertion (Valsalva maneuver), Severity of nausea, Episodes of vomiting, Total antiemetics consumption over 48 hour period.
The purpose of the study is to determine if providing coffee to patients who self-identify as coffee drinkers postoperatively will decrease the length of stay in the post-anesthesia care unit (PACU).
Approximately 20% women who undergo cesarean delivery would suffer from severe post-operative pain, which may further increase their risks from developing postpartum depression. Predictive factors such as pre-operative pain, age and anxiety could significantly contribute to post-operative nausea and vomiting (PONV) and pain in general surgery, however little information is available with regards to cesarean delivery. The investigators would investigate the risk factors of causing post-operative emesis after cesarean delivery, and to reaffirm that there is a positive correlation between pain on local anesthetic injection, presence of mechanical temporal summation (MTS) and post-Cesarean pain scores.
this work is looking for the effect of tDCS of the motor cortex on the chemotherapy induced nausea and vomiting in cancer breast patients
Ultra-thin bonded posterior occlusal veneers represent a conservative alternative to traditional onlays and complete coverage crowns for the treatment of severe erosive lesions. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to determine whether ceramic and composite resin ultrathin occlusal veneers (0.6 - 1.0 mm thick) are effective in the rehabilitation of patients affected by moderate and severe dental erosion.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of additional aprepitant to standard antiemetic regimen in Autologous Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation.
This study is to evaluate the effect of preoperative acupressure application on Postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) in patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy in terms of being in high risk group for PONV.
The goal of this clinical research study is to learn if light electrical stimulation to the wrist area during surgery is feasible in women having breast surgery.
RATIONALE: Polymerized (cross-linked) sucralfate malate paste (ProThelial) may be an effective single therapy approach for the management of chemoradiation mucositis, treating and preventing its occurrence in the oral cavity, esophagus, stomach, small and large intestine. PURPOSE: This observational multi-phase trial is studying how well polymerized (cross-linked) sucralfate malate paste (ProThelial) works to prevent and treat mucositis in adult patients who are to receive or have received chemo/radiation therapy that have caused or is anticipated to cause mucositis in the oral cavity, esophagus, stomach, small or large intestine. The Phase IV study addresses prevention and treatment in the oral cavity. The Phase I study addresses prevention and treatment in the esophagus, stomach, small and large intestine.
For breast cancer patients receiving chemotherapy regimens, the use of a validated emesis (nausea and vomiting) risk calculator will provide superior anti-emetic (nausea and vomiting) control compared with "standard" anti-emetic regimen. The risk calculator has the potential to provide more individualized anti-emetic regimen by decreasing the use of toxic/costly anti-emetics in patients at low risk and possibly more importantly enhancing the appropriate anti-emetic regimen in patients at high risk.
