Filter by:The incidence of femoral neck fracture in Europe is 330/10000 per year. It is increasing every year due to the aging of the population. In patients 55 years and older, hip fracture-related mortality is estimated to be between 4% and 16% at one month and between 11% and 43% at one year after surgery. The reduced risk of postoperative complications associated with the use of regional anesthesia, shorter mobilization times, and reduced morphine consumption in hip fractures have been reported, and have been incorporated into postoperative pain control as part of multimodal strategies. PENG has been described for postoperative pain control for surgery on the hip joint or for the treatment of post-traumatic pain associated with proximal femur/femoral head fractures. Lateral femoral cutaneous nerve block is used in combination with other peripheral block methods to provide analgesia in the lateral thigh. The investigators aimed to evaluate the effect of adding lateral femoral cutaneous nerve block to PENG block on pain scores and opioid consumption in femoral fracture procedures under spinal anesthesia.
Acute postoperative pain after breast cancer surgery is usually moderate to severe, and inadequate postoperative pain management can significantly increase perioperative analgesic consumption, prolong hospital stay, and even cause long-term persistent pain such as postmastectomy pain syndrome. A multimodal analgesic approach (NSAII, paracetamol, opioids, local infiltration, facial plane blocks and paravertebral and periparavertebral blocks) is recommended. Paravertebral block (PVB) is considered the gold standard analgesic method for breast surgery. However, PVB is an invasive block requiring advanced skills and deep injection in close proximity to the pleura, intercostal nerves, neuraxis, great vessels and intercostal neurovascular bundles. As a result, the ongoing risks of pneumothorax, neuraxial spread, hypotension and systemic toxicity preclude its routine use in the day surgery setting. Therefore, alternative blocks have been developed. Various regional techniques such as Serratus plan block (SPB), interpectoral/pectoroserratus blocks (PECS I/II), erector spina plan block (ESPB) and rhomboid intercostal plan block (RIB) have been used to relieve pain after breast surgery. However, local anesthetic distribution may be affected by the surgical incision in the chest muscles. ESPB can be performed from cervical to sacral vertebrae, but clinical, cadaveric and radiologic results are inconsistent. RIB provides hemithoracic analgesia; however, RIB does not cover the cranial aspect of the T2 dermatome. A meta-analysis reported that SPB effectively relieves acute postoperative pain, reduces nausea and vomiting, and improves perioperative anesthesia outcomes in breast surgery. In another study compared with placebo, it was reported that serratus plane block provided less pain at rest, but there was no significant difference in reducing postoperative opioid consumption. Serratus Posterior Superior Intercostal Plan Block is performed in the fascial plane between the serratus posterior superior muscle and intercostal muscles at the second and third costal level. SPSIB provides hemithoracic analgesia from the paraspinal region to the anteromedial region of the chest wall including the axillary region. In a case series of patients undergoing breast surgery, it was reported that the costal plane plays an important role in preventing pneumothorax, provides a natural barrier to the pleura, and may be a good choice for postoperative analgesia management as part of multimodal analgesia after breast surgery. In this study, the investigators aimed to observationally investigate the effect of serratus posterior superior intercostal plane block on postoperative opioid consumption in patients undergoing breast cancer surgery under general anesthesia.
The aim is to investigate the effect of early initiated and supervised mobilization continued after discharge as management of postoperative pain and recovery following obesity surgery, including patient experiences, pain coping, physical functionality and quality of life.
Purpose of the research: This research was planned to evaluate the effect of breast milk and dextrose application, which are pain relief methods, on the pain and comfort levels of preterm babies who will have an orogastric tube inserted in the 3rd and 4th levels of the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit. Hypotheses: H0: The methods used during orogastric tube insertion do not affect the pain and comfort levels of preterm babies. H1: Preterm babies who are breastfed feel less pain during orogastric tube insertion. H2: Preterm babies given dextrose during orogastric tube insertion feel less pain. H3: The comfort level of preterm babies who are breastfed during orogastric tube insertion is higher. H4: The comfort level of preterm babies given dextrose during orogastric tube insertion is higher. H5: There is a difference between the pain and comfort levels of preterm patients in terms of group, time, and group-time, depending on the intervention applied.

MR-107A-02 is being studied to investigate its efficacy and safety for treatment of acute pain after bunionectomy.
Spinal surgery patients generally have chronic pain in the preoperative period and are exposed to widespread and severe acute pain postoperatively. In spinal surgery patients, providing postoperative analgesia is important not only for the patient's comfort but also for preventing the negative effects of pain on the systems, allowing early mobilization, reducing hospital stay and especially reducing chronic pain syndrome. Although ESP block is routinely used in spinal analgesia, the answer to the question of whether investigators should perform the block after putting the patient to sleep or before waking the patient after completing the surgery is not clear. Preference varies among anesthesiologists.YOU investigators propose a randomized double-blind study comparing patients who underwent ESP block before surgery (Group 1) with patients who underwent ESP block after surgery (Group 2).
Kidney transplantation is the main option besides hemodialysis and continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) to prolong and improve the quality of life for patients with end-stage renal disease. The main option for obtaining organs from living donors is surgical action to remove the kidney (nephrectomy) using the laparoscopic method (laparoscopic live donor nephrectomy or LLDN). Postoperative management of LDNH in the form of intravenous paracetamol 1000 mg cannot overcome innovative pain and has drug-related risk effects. Non-pharmacological pain management is the first line of pain management. One non-pharmacological therapy that can be an option is acupuncture. Thread embedding acupuncture (TEA) is an acupuncture method that uses certain medical threads such as catgut or polydioxanone (PDO) which are inserted into subcutaneous tissue or muscle at certain acupuncture points. The working mechanism of TEA in treating pain is through local mechanisms in the form of releasing adenosine which binds to adenosine A1 receptors, releasing substance P, inhibiting the expression and activation of Nuclear Factor Kappa B; through a segmental mechanism in the form of a control gate mechanism; through extrasegmental mechanisms in the form of downward pain inhibition pathways; through a central mechanism in the form of release of endogenous opioids in the hypothalamus. ATB can provide a continuous stimulating effect of infiltration and acceleration of tissue regeneration, increasing anti-pain.
