Filter by:The goal of this observational study is to learn about how regional anesthesia (numbing medication) affects pain in patients with different psychosocial phenotypes such as different levels of concern about pain, sleep issues, and anxiety, who are having surgery. The main questions are: 1. Do psychosocial factors such as concerns about pain, sleep, anxiety affect the effectiveness of regional anesthesia? 2. Do psychosocial factors and regional anesthesia affect the amount of opioids used after surgery? 3. Do psychosocial factors and regional anesthesia affect development of chronic postsurgical pain?
We conducted a randomized controlled trial in 120 patients undergoing an outpatient hysteroscopy (OH). 60 patients were randomly allocated to the control group and 60 patients were randomly allocated to the study group. The intervention in the study group was to use a virtual reality (VR) device (Meta Quest2) as a distraction technique during the OH. We wanted to study if the distraction generated by the VR could improve patients' perceived pain or satisfaction with the OH
The objective of this study is to evaluate the results of different anesthesia methods (general anesthesia with epidural catheter application and spinal anesthesia with epidural catheter application) applied in elective hysterectomy surgeries performed in our hospital. The aim is to compare the advantages of both methods.
Performing out patient diagnostic and operative gynecological procedures is becoming more popular having the benefits of reducing risks of general anaesthetia, decreasing healthcare burden and increasing satisfaction for both patient and provider. Virtual reality (VR), a new technology, has been studied as a distraction technique for non-pharmacological method of pain relief. It is a computer-generated representation of an immersive videos viewed through a headset.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Cebranopadol for acute pain after a bunionectomy.
Objectives: To prospectively evaluate the potential of acu-TENS to reduce the pain experienced by women undergoing ultrasound-guided manual vacuum aspiration (USG-MVA) and evaluate its safety profile. Hypothesis to be tested: Does the use of acu-TENS reduce pain in women undergoing USG-MVA? Design and subjects: A prospective randomized control trial will be carried out at the Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology of the Prince of Wales Hospital. Women undergoing USG-MVA for the treatment of early pregnancy loss before 12 weeks of gestation will be randomized to receive acu-TENS (intervention group) or sham acu-TENS (control group) for pain control during USG-MVA. We will recruit 54 participants in each of the two arms, so a total of 108 patients will be recruited. Study instruments: USG-MVA will be performed using a 60ml charged syringe (MedGyn Aspiration Kit) with a flexible curette attached to it. Transabdominal ultrasound during the MVA procedure will be performed using Mindray DC-80A Diagnostic Ultrasound System. Acu-TENS will be performed using MTR+ Myolito Multifunctional Stimulator (MTRP-00003). Main outcome measures: Primary outcome includes pain scores before, during and after USG-MVA. Secondary outcomes include (1) stress levels measured by heart rate, heart rate variability, blood pressure, State Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI), and salivary cortisol; (2) anxiety level; (3) Surgeon's assessment on the patient co-operation score and patient intraoperative pain, (4) Client Satisfaction Questionnaire (CSQ8) and satisfaction score, and (5) any adverse events of acu-TENS. Data analysis: Data analysis will be performed using the Statistical Packages of Social Sciences for Windows (SPSS, Inc). Expected results: We expect that acu-TENS will result in at least a 35% reduction in pain experienced by women undergoing USG-MVA.
The aim of this study is to assess whether an intervention with open-label placebo (OLP) for non-specific pain in the emergency department is feasible.
Breast cancer is the most common malignancy in women. Modified radical mastectomy, a surgical procedure in the treatment of breast cancer, is one of the standard treatments. Postoperative pain can seriously reduce the quality of life in patients, and inadequately treated acute pain can trigger chronic pain syndrome. Therefore, thoracic paravertebral block and thoracic epidural block are effective in postoperative analgesia. However, the use of these blocks is limited due to complications. In recent years, less invasive blocks, such as pectoral nerve block (PECS I-II), Serratus anterior plane block (SAPB), Erector spinae plane block (ESPB), and Serratus Posterior Superior intercostal Plane Block (SPSİPB) have been applied. In this study, it was aimed to compare the analgesic effectiveness of ESPB and SPSİPB applications in patients undergoing breast surgery.
The purpose of this study is to determine which method is more effective in postoperative pain control in children undergoing iliac bone grafting for alveoloplasty under general anesthesia: ultrasound-guided transverse abdominal blockade or transversalis fascia plane block
This study is about a new pain relief medication called methoxyflurane. Pain from injuries, like broken bones, is a big reason people call ambulances. It's important to treat pain well because it can make people sick and slow down healing. But often, pain isn't treated enough, which can lead to more problems. Paramedics use different drugs to manage pain, but some are hard to give and need special training and equipment. Methoxyflurane is a new option. It's a gas you breathe in through a special inhaler. It's been used in Australia and New Zealand for a long time and has shown to work quickly and safely for different kinds of pain. This study wants to see if methoxyflurane works well for people with moderate to severe pain from injuries compared to other medicines like Advil, Tylenol and opioids. It's testing if methoxyflurane can give fast pain relief and if paramedics find it easy to use. The study will help understand if methoxyflurane could be a good option for treating pain in ambulances.
