Filter by:Research Title PATTERN OF CLINICAL PRESENTATION OF DIFFERENT BREAST DISEASE IN SURGICAL OPD AT BPKIHS Rationale: The Study will help us to know about pattern of presentation of different breast diseases Aims and Objectives: 1. To investigate the pattern of symptoms in patients with Breast diseases 2. To assess the burden of different Breast diseases. Research Hypothesis (if relevant): N/A 1. Material & Methods: 1. Whether study involves Human/animals or both : Human 2. Population/ participants: Files of patients presenting in Surgical OPD with Breast related complaints 3. Type of study design: : Descriptive Research Design 4. Human study : Inclusion Criteria: Patients presenting in Surgical OPD with Breast and related complaints Exclusion Criteria: Those who deny consent for participation. 5. Expected sample size : 823 Sample size calculation: Mentioned in methodology 6. Control groups : N/A 7. Probable duration of study: 365 days 8. Setting: Outpatient Department 9. Parameter/Variables to be applied/measured Independent Variables i. Socio-demographic characteristics such as age, gender, address. ii. Family History Dependent Variables: i. Clinical symptoms associated with breast disease ii. Type of breast disease (benign or malignant) Outcome measures: Primary (main outcome): All dependent variables (i) Rational for statistical methods to be employed : Retrospective Study Data will be entered in Microsoft Excel and converted it into SPSS for statistical analysis For descriptive studies, percentage, ratio, mean, SD, median will be calculated along with graphical and tabular presentations. For inferential statistics, bivariate analysis will be done using χ2 test and independent t test to find out the significant differences between dependent and independent variables at 95% confidence interval and p-value significant at <0.05. Multivariate logistic regression will be done to adjust for confounding. (ii) Ethical clearance : Ethical clearance will be obtained from Under Graduate Medical Research Protocol Review Board (UM-RPRB) of BPKIHS. (iii) Permission to use copyright questionnaire/Pro forma: Not applicable (j) Maintain the confidentiality of subject Confidentiality of the participants will be maintained. Whether available resources are adequate: Yes 1. Other resources needed: No 2. For Intervention trial: Not applicable A. Permission from Drug Controller of Nepal required/ Not required/Received/ Applied when_____ B. Safety measure C. Plan to withdraw
The goal of the current project is to assess performance of the Bounceless Control sports bra versus: (1) the Shefit Ultimate Sports bra, and (2) conventional bra as worn by participants in a variety of athletic activities.
The present study compares the Erector Spinae Plane (ESP) block, Pectoral (PECS II) block, and Serratus-Intercostal Fascial Plane (SIFP) block. This is the first article to compare these three locoregional nerve block techniques in acute and chronic postoperative pain in breast tumour surgery. From June 1, 2018, to June 30, 2019, 103 patients undergoing breast cancer surgery were randomised to undergo one of three locoregional techniques (35 for ESP block, 34 for PECS II block, 34 for SIFP block). Locoregional techniques were performed under light sedation and then, general anaesthesia was used for the breast cancer surgery. Outcomes measured included pain (visual analog scale [VAS] in immediate postoperatory and at 24 hours. It also was collected opioid use at 24 hours, adverse events, and length of stay (for acute postoperatory). Moreover, at 3 months, a telephone interview was conducted with the patient and VAS was questioned. A year later, the patient was questioned again and asked for VAS, location of her pain, and pharmacological treatment. It was collected if patients were assisted or not by a Pain Unit.
The aim of the present study is to investigate the incidence of chronic pain following breast cancer surgery in Cyprus, discover its associated risk factors and explore the impact of Pecs Blocks on the appearance of post mastectomy chronic pain symptoms
The proposed randomized study evaluates whether a controlled breathing intervention could be efficacious for reducing pain in the MRI-guided breast biopsy setting. Support for this intervention stems from experimental and clinical studies on the effects of controlled breathing on pain. Implementing a controlled breathing intervention during MRI-guided breast biopsy has the potential to provide effective pain management in this outpatient setting. The primary study objectives are to assess the feasibility, acceptability, and efficacy of a novel audio-recorded controlled breathing intervention for reducing breast and body pain in women undergoing MRI-guided breast biopsy. The secondary study objectives are to evaluate the effects of controlled breathing on measures of physiological reactivity (i.e., blood pressure and heart rate), pain catastrophizing, and self-efficacy for pain and anxiety.
This pilot project will provide an understanding of the contextual variables responsible for breast and nipple pain during breastfeeding initiation. These variables include, genetic variation, pain sensitivity, reactivity, pain catastrophizing and perceived stress. The purpose is to understand the efficacy of self-management (SM) strategies on each of these contextual variables, in an effort to inform a personalized approach to managing breastfeeding pain and its effect on improved health outcomes.
The main objective of this intervention study is to evaluate the efficacy of Lactobacillus fermentum CECT5716 to reduce the presence in the milk of genera Staphylococcus and Streptococcus as risk factors for mastitis in women with breast pain
The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of toremifene treatment to the MRI findings of the breast in women suffering from premenstrual mastalgia.
This study will explore the effect of pre-medication with acetaminophen, ibuprofen, and topical lidocaine gel (Topicaine) on the perception of discomfort and overall satisfaction with the mammography experience. The research questions are: 1. What is the relationship between the use of acetaminophen, ibuprofen, and Topicaine prior to screening mammography and the perception of discomfort during the procedure? 2. What is the relationship between perception of discomfort and overall satisfaction with the mammography experience? 3. What is the relationship between the perception of discomfort and plans for future mammograms? 4. What other factors are associated with the perception of discomfort and satisfaction?
Breast pain or mastalgia is a common and troublesome symptom for many women. Whereas cyclical breast pain related to hormonal fluctuations can frequently be treated, non-cyclical breast pain can go untreated due to its various etiologies and non-specific presentation. Acupuncture is an ancient form of Chinese medicine that has been used for centuries to treat a vast array of illnesses and conditions. Research has shown that acupuncture has a link to a release of endorphins and other chemicals in the central nervous system. Thus, it is thought to help relieve pain. To date, there has been minimal research using acupuncture for breast pain. This pilot of 30 women will seek to determine whether four acupuncture treatments over a period of two weeks will significantly lower the level of pain experienced by these participants. Additionally, we will evaluate quality of life measures.
