Filter by:In our clinic, routine suprainguinal fascia iliaca block (SIFIB) has been administered for postoperative analgesia in patients undergoing knee arthroplasty. Recently, we have introduced the IPACK (Infiltration between the Popliteal Artery and Capsule of the Knee) block to this regimen, and the aim of this retrospective study is to determine whether the addition of the IPACK block enhances the quality of analgesia. Knee arthroplasty, also known as knee joint replacement surgery, is a common procedure performed to alleviate pain and improve joint function in patients with knee osteoarthritis or other knee-related conditions. Postoperative pain management is crucial for patient comfort and overall recovery. In this study, we aimed to compare the two techniques mentioned earlier, namely the SIFIB (Suprainguinal Fascia Iliaca Block) and the SIFIB+IPACK, by examining the data of patients who underwent knee arthroplasty under spinal anesthesia at our clinic between January 1, 2023, and September 1, 2023.
Fentanyl and esketamine are both standard of care for treatment of acute severe traumatic pain in the prehospital setting in the Netherlands. However, it is not known whether they are equally effective and safe. It is also not known whether intranasal (IN) administration of fentanyl or esketamine is equally effective and safe as intravenous (IV) administration. The FORE-PAIN trial is a double-blind multi-arm randomized non-inferiority trial comparing Fentanyl IN, esketamine IV and esketamine IN (intervention arms) to fentanyl IV (comparator arm) for prehospital management of traumatic pain. The investigators hypothesize that all intervention arms provide analgesia that is non-inferior to the comparator arm, and that all study arms are equally safe.
This study aims to figure out how small-bore pigtail catheter or large-bore chest tube for postoperative drainage impact on analgesic efficacy and actually enhance recovery postoperatively.
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the analgesic efficacy of adding dexmedetomidine versus ibuprofen to bupivacaine for intraperitoneal instillation after laparoscopic gynecological procedures. The main questions to answer are: - Which is more effective for controlling postoperative pain within the first 24 hours after the procedure? - Which is more convenient for the patients with fewer side effects and opioid consumption? Participants will be asked to assess - The postoperative pain severity by VAS score - The onset of the first analgesic request - The incidence of side effects like nausea and vomiting Researchers will compare the dexmedetomidine group, the ibuprofen group, and the bupivacaine (control) group to see which one will be superior to the others.
This is a retrospective study looking at patients who received a nerve block for surgery and assessing pain after the nerve block resolves, with or without an educational intervention, over two periods of time.
The goal of this observational study is to develop methods that could provide continual monitoring of comfort levels for preterm neonates in hospitals.
Over 60 million persons in the United States (US) identify themselves as Latinx and 25.6% are children under the age of 16. Surgical disparities for adults and children have been identified as a major problem in the US and can be experienced at multiple points along a patient's health care trajectory. Data from the investigator's center indicates that a substantial portion of Latinx children who undergo surgery experience high anxiety and postoperative pain as well as postoperative impairments in psychological and physical functioning as compared to White non-Latin children who undergo surgery. Recent growth in use of mobile devices provides us an opportunity to create low-cost mobile health (mHealth) behavioral interventions to reduce this disparity in surgical outcomes. In a previous National Institutes of Health (NIH) award, the principal investigator (PI) developed and tested an evidence based mHealth tailored intervention (WebTIPS) that aims to prepare and be a companion of a child and their family during a surgical event. WebTIPS aims to enhance the recovery of the child in several ways such as reducing anxiety and pain and is based on information provision, modeling, and teaching of coping skills. WebTIPS, however, was developed and validated with a population of primarily White non-Latinx English-speaking children and their parents. Unfortunately, it is well established that mHealth interventions are significantly less effective when used with specific ethnic minorities unless they underwent a process of cultural adaptation. Over the past 4-years, the investigators have established multiple academic and community collaborations, conducted extensive participatory research with Latinx stakeholders and used the heuristic framework and a modified ecological validity model to culturally adapt WebTIPS. The culturally adapted intervention is called L-WebTIPS. The overall aim of this application is to reduce surgical disparities in a population of Latinx children undergoing surgery. The first phase of this application (R61) includes web programming of L-WebTIPS, conduct formative evaluation and conduct feasibly randomized control trial (RCT) to test this intervention. The second phase (R33) includes a multi-center RCT which aims to determine the effectiveness of L-WebTIPS compared to attention control intervention in decreasing postoperative pain, opioids consumption and lowering anxiety in Latinx children undergoing outpatient surgery. Secondary aims of the R33 include examining the impact of L-WebTIPS on home-based clinical recovery parameters such as pain, analgesic requirements, new onset behavioral changes and return to normal daily activity in Latinx children undergoing outpatient surgery. The investigators also plan to determine if the use of L-WebTIPS reduces anxiety and improve experience among the parents of Latinx children undergoing surgery. Finally, the investigators plan to determine if the use of L-WebTIPS reduces anxiety and enhance experience among the parents of Latinx children undergoing surgery. The investigators submit that using a cultural adaption process for an existing validated intervention will accelerate the process of reducing surgical disparities and bringing an effective intervention to clinical settings and routine use.
Data intelligence platform was widely used to facilitate the process of clinical research. However, a platform that integrates natural language processing (NLP) and machine learning (ML) algorithms has not been reported in perioperative medical management.
Rhomboid intercostal block is used to block lateral cutaneous branches of intercostal nerves between T3 and T9 dermatomes. RIB has been reported to be successful in attenuating acute pain following breast surgeries. However, it's effect on chronic pain has not been evaluated yet. The primary hypothesis of the study is that the incidence of chronic pain of the patients who will receive Rhomboid intercostal block (RIB) following breast cancer surgery will be lower than the patients who will receive no block intervention at the postoperative 3rd month. The secondary hypothesis is that the incidence ofchronic pain of the patients who will receive Rhomboid intercostal block (RIB) following breast cancer surgery will be lower than the patients who will receive no block intervention at the postoperative 6th month. An other secondary hypothesis is that the total BPI-SF scores will be lower in the RIB group than control group at the postoperative 3rd and the 6th months.
This study will evaluate the safety, efficacy, and PK of low dose (750 mg) and high-dose (1250 mg) XG005 oral tablets compared with placebo in subjects undergoing bunionectomy. Subjects will be confined in the clinic from check-in through 72 hours post-surgery to monitor subject safety.
