Filter by:Protective analgesia in caesarean section using intravenous paracetamol: A prospective randomised controlled trial. Cesarean section a common surgical procedure in women. The parturients undergoing CS experience severe to moderate postoperative pain. Pain relief is very important to the patient as it causes discomfort which affects hemodynamic intraoperative and increases the risk of postoperative complications. Analgesia is crucial to postoperative recovery. Aims: To investigate the efficacy of combined administration of paracetamol, as protective multimodal analgesia, and standard spinal anesthesia in the reduction of postoperative pain following cesarean section. Sixty adult Parturients undergoing CS will participate in a single-centered, randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled trial divided into 2 groups 30 each. The intervention group will receive 1 gr of intravenous paracetamol in 100 ml normal saline only 15 minutes prior to spinal anesthesia induction. The control group will receive 100 ml normal saline IV identical in size and shape and manner to the experimental group, 15 minutes prior to induction of spinal anesthesia. We will measure postoperative Visual Analog Scale (VAS) pain score, postoperative time to analgesia in PACU and number of postoperative analgesic doses within 24 hours.
A randomised prospective trial comparing the efficacy of pethidine, Ketorolac, and Xylocaine gel as analgesics for pain control in shockwave lithotripsy.
The investigators aimed to evaluate tramadol-sparing effect of intravenous (IV) ibuprofen in patients undergoing percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL).
Delirium is a frequently occurred cerebral complication in elderly patients after surgery, and its occurrence is associated with worse outcomes. Sleep disturbances is considered to be one of the most important risk factors of postoperative delirium. Previous studies showed that, for elderly patients admitted to the ICU after surgery, low-dose dexmedetomidine infusion improved the quality of sleep and decreased the incidence of delirium. The investigators hypothesize that, for elderly patients after cancer surgery, dexmedetomidine supplemented analgesia can also decrease the incidence of delirium, possibly by improving sleep quality. The purpose of this multicenter, randomized controlled trial is to investigate the impact of dexmedetomidine supplemented analgesia on the incidence of delirium in elderly patients after cancer surgery.
A majority of the elderly patients undergo surgery for malignant tumors. For these patients, postoperative tumor recurrence and metastasis are main factors that worsen long-term outcomes. The investigators hypothesize that dexmedetomidine supplemented analgesia in elderly patients after cancer surgery may help to maintain immune function and improve long-term outcomes, possibly by relieving stress and inflammatory response, improving analgesic efficacy and sleep quality, and reducing delirium incidence.
A high incidence of respiratory morbidity after adenotonsillectomy is reported in children with obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS). So we designed a prospective, double-blind, randomized controlled study to determine the effects of individualized opioid analgesia compared with conventional opioid analgesia on respiratory morbidity after adenotonsillectomy in Children with OSAS.
Circumcision is a commonly performed procedure on newborn males. Clear recommendations and/or guidelines for pain control during the procedure do not exist. The purpose of this research is to compare various forms of analgesia to evaluate which is the more effective for pain reduction. The investigators hope that this study can provide definitive guidelines on the best form of analgesia to use during circumcision. It is important that we perform this study to ensure that in the future newborns' pain during circumcision is effectively managed.
Investigators aimed to evaluate the impact of bupivacaine administration into the surgical field after total thyroidectomy on post-operative pain and analgesic requirement with a double-blind, prospective, clinical, randomized study. Pain assessment was performed with the visual analog score (VAS). Participants were pre-operatively, divided into two groups randomly to receive either bupivacaine or not. One group received a 10 ml of bupivacaine solution while the other group was treated with the same volume of 0.9% sodium chloride (NaCl) through the drain after completion of total thyroidectomy procedure. All participants were anesthetized and operated with the same anesthesia and surgical team.
The purpose of this retrospective study is to analyze quality and adverse events of analgesia by telemedically supported paramedics in comparison to conventional treatment by on-scene emergency medical service (EMS) physicians in the EMS of the city of Aachen, Germany.
Unilateral mastectomy is associated with moderate to severe postoperative pain. A new regional anaesthetic technique has been recently described, call the PEC block. This technique consists of injecting local anaesthetic between different muscles of the chest in order to relieve postoperative pain. The investigators aim to verify that this technique has a clinical relevant postoperative analgesic effect. For that purpose, the investigators will randomise 50 patients scheduled to undergo unilateral mastectomy into two groups: one group will receive a PEC block after the induction of the general anaesthesia under ultrasound guidance, while the other group will not have this regional procedure.
