Filter by:The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the efficacy and safety of Intravenous (IV) acetaminophen plus rescue opioids for the relief of moderate to severe acute pain in neonates and infants (age < 2 years) compared to placebo plus standard of care rescue opioids as well as characterize the concentration-effect relationship (PK/PD) of the intravenous acetaminophen as compared to the control group.
This is a clinical study that aims to investigate and compare the efficacy of transbuccal paracetamol 125 mg with that of paracetamol 1g administered intravenously in patients with acute pain of moderate intensity accepted to emergency room following a minor trauma of the lower limbs and/or superiors. To this end, several pain scoring will be performed using a visual analogue scale (VAS) at various times after drug administration.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether sublingual Buprenorphine is as effective as Iv Morphine sulfate on pain control of the patients with acute renal colic in the emergency department.
Patients undergoing cardiac surgery experience significant postoperative pain, which may impact postoperative outcomes. The aim of this single center, double-blind, randomized, placebo controlled trial is to determine if intravenous (IV) acetaminophen will significantly decrease 24 hour postoperative opioid consumption.
The purpose of this study is to compare the safety and effectiveness of intravenous low dose ketamine (LDK) to the industry standard of morphine (MOR) in regards to controlling acute pain in the emergency department. Both LDK and morphine have side effects. The amount and character of these side effects will be compared. Additionally, the degree of sedation or agitation will be specifically measured. The aim of this current study is to make this comparison and shift the evidence for LDK use from the anecdotal to the scientific.
This is an open-label (both the physician and healthy volunteer know which medication will be administered), single-dose, 5-dosing period study to characterize the pharmacokinetics (process by which oxycodone is absorbed, distributed, metabolized, and eliminated by the body) and the effects of food on the pharmacokinetics of oxycodone. The study will take place over approximately two and a half months and will consist of three phases: a screening visit to determine eligibility for the study, a 5-dosing period treatment phase, and an end-of-study visit.
The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the efficacy of at least 1 dose of tapentadol IR 50 mg and/or 75 mg versus placebo using the sum of pain intensity difference at 48 hours (SPID48) to measure analgesic effect in Korean patients with acute pain following bunionectomy.
The surgical placement of dental implants is presently a common procedure performed by oral surgeons, periodontists, and general dentists. The surgery can be performed under local anesthesia and involves the incision of soft tissue to expose the underlying bone, preparation of the implant site using a specialized surgical drill, and.screwing the implant into bone using a specialized headpiece. Dental implant patients experience postoperative pain yet there are no studies in the literature which have evaluated the efficacy of analgesics in this patient population. The current pilot study will evaluate the analgesic effects and tolerability of a recently FDA-approved analgesic formulation of intranasal ketorolac (SPRIX®) in 25 patients who have 1 - 3 dental implants surgically placed. Patients will self administer the ketorolac nasal spray (one spray in each nostril, 31.5 mg total dose) when their postoperative pain reaches at least a moderate severity. Pain intensity and pain relief scores will then be recorded every 20 minutes for the first hour, at 1.5 and 2 hours and then hourly through 6 hours on a validated analgesic diary. Side effects will be recorded when and if they occur. Patients will then transition to a multi-dose phase where they will be allowed to dose with ketorolac as indicated in the package insert (up to 4 times per day for 5 days). Patients will record the time of each dose, a daily assessment of overall efficacy and side effects, and the use of any rescue medication (acetaminophen 650 mg) on a take home diary.
The purpose of this study is to determine the effectiveness, the safety, and the tolerability of intranasal ketorolac (Sprix) in relieving acute pain in adults ages 18-64 who come to the ED seeking care. Considering all ED visits, pain is the most common chief complaint. Giving intranasal ketorolac (Sprix) after stomach and dental surgeries has been shown to be safe and effective, but no studies have investigated the use of intranasal ketorolac (Sprix) for the treatment of acute pain in the ED. Ketorolac (Sprix) has several advantages over other drugs commonly given for pain, including opioids. Ketorolac (Sprix) is non-addicting and has fewer side effects than opioids. The administration of ketorolac (Sprix) by other methods, such as IV, intramuscular shot, and oral pill form, has been shown to be safe and effective in treating acute pain. This study is being done to find out if giving ketorolac (Sprix) as a single dose nasal spray will have the same benefit in decreasing patient's pain.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether Iv paracetamol is as effective as Iv Morphine sulfate on control of the acute pain in Patient with limb trauma.
