Filter by:Here, we retrospectively analyzed the proportion of intravenous patient controlled analgesia (PCA) used in a large tertiary hospital in central China, and then further analyzed the proportion of patients with postoperative pain after standardized pain treatment and the incidence of adverse effects. It aims to answer are: 1. The incidence of poor postoperative analgesia and adverse effects of patients with different types of surgery after standardized postoperative pain management of TJ-APS team; 2. It would provide reference for improving the quality of postoperative acute pain management. In addition, it supplements the Chinese data on the incidence of poor postoperative analgesia and adverse effects of patients under the APS standardized postoperative analgesia process.
Chronic pain is an undesirable condition that impacts predominantly quality of life at all levels. Chronic pain might occur in healthy young patients when acute postoperative pain is undertreated and persists in time. There are some indexes in the market to evaluate pain, but they assess mainly parasympathetic activity. Hence, it´s a measure of the physiological response to pain, which is still a not well-defined concept. Patients under General Anesthesia might be experimenting unnoticed pain as there is no direct standard method to measure it in clinical practice. This study aims to detect brain oscillatory activity in the intraoperative setting in four situations; awake-no pain, awake-pain, sleep-no pain, and sleep-pain. Pain can be assessed by studying the local and global dynamics of brain activity. A promising upcoming measure of pain could be implemented in clinical practice to detect and treat pain.
Traumatic rib fractures (i.e., broken ribs caused by a physical injury) are common and very painful. They also often lead to serious complications, more time spent in hospital, and can even lead to death. Even after rib fractures have healed, they can lead to long-term pain and a lower quality of life. A technology called cryoneurolysis, which acts to freeze nerves causing pain using a small tool which can turn very cold, is a promising new way to manage rib fracture pain. This study is a test with a small number of people to see if it is feasible to use this technology for patients with rib fractures. If this is successful, we will recruit more people for a larger study to see if cryoneurolysis, along with standard pain control techniques, is better at stopping pain, compared to just the normal techniques alone. Participants in our study will be asked to rate their pain, and record pain medications that they take for 3 months after their pain procedure.
Approximately 120 subjects will be randomized into 1 of the following 2 treatment groups in a 1:1 ratio: Group 1: ZYNRELEF® up to 200 mg/ 6mg ( 7ml vial) via instillation at all incision sites in addition to 30 ml of 0.5% Ropivacaine + 10mg dexamethasone. Postoperatively, intermittent IV acetaminophen will be administered as per need till discharge. Group 2: 30 ml of 0.5% Ropivacaine and 10mg dexamethasone into all surgical sites and intermittent IV acetaminophen as per need till discharge. Primary Objective: To compare the efficacy and duration of analgesia achieved following the instillation of ZYNRELEF® all incision sites in addition to Ropivacaine with dexamethasone + postoperative IV acetaminophen, to the standard treatment of Ropivacaine with dexamethasone + postoperative IV acetaminophen in subjects undergoing laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy. Secondary Objectives: 1. To evaluate additional efficacy parameters, including opioid load, in this study population. 2. To determine the impact of ZYNRELEF® on the cost of pain management. 3. To assess the time taken to resume exercise after discharge. 4. To assess the adverse events reported following the use of ZYNRELEF®.
Patients who undergoing total knee arthroplasty under spinal analgesia will be recruited and randomly assigned to the following two groups according to the regimen of PCA: (A) opioid group who receive only fentanyl citrate 1200mcg for continuous infusion drug, (B) non-opioid group who receive ketorolac tromethamine 150mg with nefopam hydrochloride 100mg for continuous infusion drug. All the patients will receive additional fentanyl citrate as bolus injection drug if they need more analgesics postoperatively.
This prospective randomized controlled study is aimed to determine the advantages of post-admission fascia iliaca compartment block (FICB) in geriatric hip fracture surgery combination with multimodal analgesia compared with no post-admission FICB. The primary outcome is incidence of delirium during hospital admission. Secondary outcomes are incidence of delirium at hospital discharge, pre- and post-operative pain intensity, peri-operative complications, opioid-related side effects, post-operative complications and length of hospital stay, and morbidities and mortality (in-hospital and 30 days).
Purpose: It is one of the important nursing interventions for patients in intensive care units with strict glycemic protocol to determine whether glucose values are different for a bedside glucose meter compared to the main clinical laboratory and whether the blood sampling site has a significant effect on glucose values. In this study, it is aimed to compare whether there is a difference between blood samples from venous, arterial, capillary and thumb base region, which is defined as an alternative region to the fingertip, in blood glucose level measurement, and to compare the consistency between the thumb base region and fingertip region and pain and results of the different methods used. Methods: The universe of the research consists of Bursa Uludağ University Health Practice and Patients will be hospitalized in the General Surgery Intensive Care Unit of the Research Center between April and September 2023. 125 patients who meet the sample selection criteria will form the sample of the study. The sample size of the study was determined statistically with the G*Power (3.1.7) program. Comparison of blood glucose measurement taken with different methods in the power analysis to determine the sample size. When the effect size of blood glucose was determined as 0.9, it was calculated that a total of 125 patients should be included for a significance level of 0.05 and a power of 80%.

The aim of this study will be to compare the effects of morphine versus dexmedetomidine when used as adjuvants to local anesthetic (Ropivacaine) in Erector Spinae Plane Block under ultrasound guidance. A group without an adjuvant will also be compared to the groups.
Pain relief interventions in invasive interventions are divided into two pharmacologic methods and non-pharmacologic methods. Nonpharmacologic interventions are an area where nurses can easily demonstrate their independent roles. Especially today, when the use of complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) methods is increasing, nurses are also turning to these methods. Non-pharmacological methods include listening to white noise, non-nutritive sucking, aromatherapy applications, placing the baby on the mother's lap, changing position, rocking, touching, distracting, listening to music, watching cartoons, singing, breastfeeding and giving sucrose solution with breast milk, giving toys and smelling mother odour. This study was planned to determine the effect of the therapeutic toy used during IV catheter placement, which is the most common invasive intervention in the Neonatal Care Unit where a newborn baby is hospitalized, on the comfort level, crying time and physiological parameters of the newborn.
In this study, the investigators will compare two different anesthetic solutions in the infraclavicular block in patients having forearm, wrist, and hand surgery. The solutions will be bupivacaine 0.5% versus bupivacaine 0.25% plus lidocaine 1%, both associated with epinephrine 5 mcg/ml and dexamethasone 4 mg. The main objective of this investigation is to demonstrate that using higher concentrations of bupivacaine alone results in a significant block duration increase compared with the mixture of bupivacaine and lidocaine.
