Filter by:The purpose of this study is to see if the Calmer is more effective at managing acute pain in preterm infants in the neonatal intensive care than the current standard of care in the unit. Hypothesis: While receiving treatment with Calmer, infants will show lower behavioral pain scores and lower heart rates, and more stable autonomic regulation as measured by heart rate variability indices, than infants given a soother plus facilitated tucking (standard of care) during routine blood collection.
This study investigates the treatment of acute pain, an unpleasant feeling caused by an injury. The overall purpose of the study is to gain more information that the pain relief medicine Penthrox(Methoxyflurane) administered using the Penthrox Inhaler(a distinctive green, whistle like object that you breathe through) is safe and works at relieving pain in patients aged 12 years and older who are admitted to a hospital Emergency Department with a minor injury (known as trauma).
There will be 3 randomized, double-blinded clinical trials to help determine which of commonly prescribed oral opioid combination is most effective in managing acute extremity pain after discharge from the adult emergency department. The first trial compares hydrocodone 5mg / acetaminophen 500mg to codeine 30mg/acetaminophen 300mg. The second trial compares oxycodone 5mg/acetaminophen 325mg to codeine 30mg/acetaminophen 300mg. The third trial compares oxycodone 5mg/acetaminophen 325 mg to hydrocodone 5mg/acetaminophen 325 mg.
A single center trial to evaluate the efficacy, tolerance, and acceptability of Oxygenated Glycerol Triesters (OGT) mentholated cream on acute musculoskeletal pain in normal healthy adult volunteers suffering from a recent inflammation of muscles and joints. Patient who met eligibility requirements were instructed to identify one area on their body where they were experiencing the most acute musculoskeletal pain/discomfort. Patients were provided with visual analog scales in order to quantify their pain. Patients either received mentholated cream with or without OGT and instructed to rub on the identified site 3 times a day for 7 days. Pain and other observations were written in a diary for each day.
Less than 10% of patients with a traumatic pain have been managed by a physician before to be admitted in an emergency service. 50 % of those patients have been carried by paramedics. Premixed nitrous oxide and oxygen is often used by paramedics, but no scientific studies have demonstrated its efficacy. The aim of the study is to demonstrate the efficacy of premixed nitrous oxide and oxygen in patients with out-of-hospital moderate acute pain.
The primary purpose of this study was to evaluate analgesic efficacy and safety of hydrocodone/acetaminophen extended release compared to placebo in the treatment of moderate to severe pain following bunionectomy.
In this study we evaluate if there is a correlation between acute pain and systemic inflammatory markers after total Knee Arthroplasty (TKA).
The purpose of this study is to compare two opioid protocols ("H2O" and "1+1") for the treatment of acute severe pain in the emergency department. The investigators primary hypothesis is that the "H2O" protocol will be more efficacious than the "1+1" protocol in Emergency Department patients aged 21-64 years. The primary outcome is the proportion of patients in each arm who choose to forgo additional pain medication at 60 minutes.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether sublingual buprenorphine is effective in the treatment of acute pain in adult patients with extremity bone fractures
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the use of ultrasound scanning of the thoracic spine to define the point of insertion and the depth of the epidural space compared to the blind technique. The study hypothesis is the use of Ultrasound will improve the success rate of epidural placement and may also decrease the rate of complications.
