Filter by:The aim of this study will be to investigate the effect of an opioid-free anesthesia regimen with a mixture of dexmedetomidine-lidocaine-ketamine in the same syringe versus fentanyl analgesia in elective laparoscopic cholecystectomies
This study aims to develop and validate the first set of patient-reported outcome measures for recurrent urinary tract infection (UTI): the Recurrent UTI Symptom Scale and the Recurrent UTI Impact Questionnaire. These tools could be used in clinical practice, clinical trials and research to gather an insight into a patient's perspective of their recurrent UTI symptom severity and its impact on their life, as well as determining any possible improvement or other change in their condition due to interventions (e.g. antibiotic treatment).
The objective of this study is to evaluate the feasibility and efficacy of an Augmented Reality (AR) biofeedback intervention to alleviate pain symptoms in individuals suffering from chronic pain of the hand and/or the forearm.
The primary aim of this study is to document the feasibility and acceptability of an intervention consisting of pain neuroscience education and reconsolidation therapy with propranolol in adults suffering from chronic pain (chronic low back pain or fibromyalgia). The secondary aim of the study is to estimate the effect size of the intervention on pain and function one month post-intervention, and to obtain data for sample-size calculation for a subsequent randomized controlled trial.
Pelvic cancer pain is a chronic condition related to the involvement of viscera, pelvic muscular structures or neural structures by tumor. The superior hypogastric plexus block is a sympathetic block used to treat pelvic visceral pain that is unresponsive to oral or parenteral opioids different approaches for superior hypogastric block as transdiscal approach, classic approach, Posteromedial approach, CT guided approach and ultrasound anterior approach The ultrasound-guided superior hypogastric plexus neurolysis technique (anterior approach) is simple to perform. We believe this block can be useful in cancer patients who are having difficulty in lying prone, because it is a procedure performed in the supine position and it is less time-consuming. It also avoids the radiation exposure involved with a computed tomography-guided and fluoroscopy posterior approach.
This study learns if depression, anxiety, and catastrophizing (thought patterns that prompt people to expect the worst) are associated with chronic pain after surgery among patients who are scheduled to have cytoreductive surgery with intraoperative hyperthermic chemotherapy. Information from this study may improve the understanding of persistent and chronic postsurgical pain integrating multiple layers of biological and behavioral sciences.
In society today, mental health problems, specifically stress-, anxiety- and depressive disorders, are a primary cause of long-term sick leave, leading to significant societal costs and suffering. One important issue hindering implementation of successful treatments is that there is a marked co-occurrence between these problems and somatic health problems, such as different types of pain. An important key to solving this problem is to develop a more integrated conceptualization of, and treatment model for, these patients' health problems. Specifically, one way to understand the co-occurrence between mental and somatic health problems is offered by the 'transdiagnostic' perspective. The aim of this project is to implement and evaluate the effectiveness of a transdiagnostic emotion-focused treatment protocol in clinical context. The treatment addresses comorbid mental (stress, anxiety- and depressive) and somatic health (pain) problems and targets core emotion regulation processes that are hypothesized to maintain and exacerbate these problems.
The purpose of this study is to test safety and efficacy of study drug LY3526318 in for the treatment of knee pain due to with osteoarthritis (OA). This trial is part of the chronic pain master protocol H0P-MC-CPMP (NCT05986292) which is a protocol to accelerate the development of new treatments for chronic pain.
Requirements and functional Schedule also calen Demand Ability Protocol (DAP) is an intervention that has been tested and found useful in occupational health service. The intervention aims to strengthen the collaboration between Health care, employers and employee. The intervention is based on a structured interview about the employers demands at work. This intervention (DAP) will in the present study be evaluated in pain rehabilitation both qualitatively and quantitatively.
This project proposes to systematically develop and evaluate the feasibility and preliminary effectiveness of a digitally delivered, graded exposure treatment for youth with chronic musculoskeletal pain, utilizing a sequential replicated and randomized single-case experimental design (SCED). SCED provides the opportunity to rigorously evaluate treatment effectiveness at the individual level. Development of iGET Living will be based on a series of short iterations, with alpha testing (Aim 1) on a small sample of adolescents with chronic pain (N = 15). For Aim 1, participants will participate in three, two hour focus groups (one per week over the course of three weeks), resulting in 6 total hours of participation per participant for Aim 1. Aim 2 will involve a sample (N = 20 youth) of naïve end-users. Participants will be enrolled in a baseline period ranging from 7-25 days (done to support SCED methodology) after which they will be enrolled in the online intervention program, lasting 6-weeks. Patients will be contacted 3-months post-discharge from treatment (week 22 of enrollment) and will complete self-report outcome measures at this time.
