Study of the effects of intranasal sufentanil on patients presenting to the emergency department with acute post-traumatic pain.
The goal of this study is to test the hypothesis that surgical site infiltration with liposomal bupivacaine (LB) is non-inferior to and more cost effective than thoracic epidural analgesia (TEA) for patients undergoing open gynecologic surgery on an established enhanced recovery program (ERP) using a non-inferiority randomized trial design. The impact of TEA and surgical site infiltration with LB on neuroendocrine and inflammatory mediators of surgical stress response (SSR) will also be investigated as a translational endpoint.
Continuous peripheral nerve blocks are considered as the gold standard for postoperative analgesia in orthopaedic surgery (shoulder, knee, foot). These techniques are also used in chronic pain. The main disadvantage of these techniques is that they can drive a more or less deep motor block that slows down the rehabilitation process. This disadvantage could be prevented (or minimized) by adapting the protocol for administering local anesthetics or by changing molecules (levobupivacaine 0.625 mg/ml instead of ropivacaine 2 mg/ml). There is no literature comparing the effectiveness of the sensory block and its impact on the motor block according to the administration protocol and/or the type of local anesthetics. The main judgement criterion of such a study could be a composite criterion crossing the quality of the sensory block and the depth of the motor blockades, the ideal being to have a perfect sensory block without any motor block.
Pleural drainage under local anesthesia is a frequent practice in resuscitation, experienced as an unpleasant and painful event for patients. Pain management is an important issue for early rehabilitation, decrease hospitalisation's cost and shortening the length of stay in intensive care unit (ICU). A new type of locoregional anesthesia called Serratus plane block described by Blanco in 2013 showed a benefit in per and postoperative analgesia in thoracic surgery and carcinologic breast surgery, allowing a decrease in morphine use and an improvement of the patient's general satisfaction. Serratus plane block is a very effective technique in chest wall analgesia, easy and safe to perform, with few complications. No studies to date have evaluated this anesthetic practice in intensive care for pleural drainage. This technique could be used outside the operating room to improve the intensive care patients, who often have heavier pathologies and greater pain, such as patients with chest trauma or patients with cardiac or respiratory disease. The investigators would like to conduct a preliminary study of superiority in the CHU Amiens intensive care unit, to study the interest of the Serratus plane block in comparison with local anesthesia on the management of acute pain during pleural drainage.
This study will attempt to objectively measure pain with an experimental device. The investigators will apply the device to measure patients "pain" due to uterine contractions during routine clinical care to correlate patients verbal pain ratings and analgesia requirements to that measured by the device. A brain oxygenation device, Edwards Foresight, will be used to concurrently to monitor brain oxygenation and hemodynamics, so the relationship between the CereVu ROPA device objective measure of pain and brain oxygenation/hemodynamic changes and patient-reported pain can be determined.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the analgesic efficacy of fascia iliaca compartment block using bupivacaine versus bupivacaine with dexamethasone or magnesium sulphate for dynamic hip screw surgery under spinal anesthesia. The primary outcome will be the duration of effective analgesia from FICB till the first analgesic dose is required,the secondary outcomes will be the severity of postoperative pain as will be assessed by the visual analogue scale and the total dose of pethidin for rescue analgesia.
Pain associated with rib movement cause inability to cough and breathe deeply that leads to reduction in the tidal volume and predisposes to significant atelectasis, sputum retention, pneumonia and a reduction in functional residual capacity .These factors in turn lead to decreased lung compliance, ventilation perfusion mismatch, hypoxemia and respiratory distress. Therefore, effective pain relief remains the cornerstone of management to prevent serious respiratory complications .
Prospective association study to analyse patients' outcome after bariatric surgery. Outcome comprises postoperative pain, analgesia, postoperative side-effects, long-lasting pain, patients' impairment in daily living.
Prospective observational study to analyse patients' pain related outcome after surgery and ist association to genetic variants and non-genetic variables.
