Filter by:Chronic post-operative pain is generally defined by persistent pain more than 2 months after surgery. General reviews on chronic post-operative pain describe an overall incidence of 30%, of which 5 to 10% are described as severe. Different risk factors have been identified: pain and preoperative opioid use, anxiety - depression, catastrophism, type of surgery, intensity and duration of postoperative pain, genetic factors. If postoperative pain is essentially pain caused by excess nociceptive stimulation, investigators realize that a neuropathic component is far from being exceptional and that this can be demonstrated quickly after surgery. In addition, these neuropathic pains respond little or no to the usual analgesics and in particular to opioids, which can be the cause of misuse or death from overdose. Early detection of pain of a neuropathic nature would allow appropriate therapy to be put in place and may therefore reduce the risk of chronic postoperative pain. The concept of ambulatory surgery assumes that postoperative pain will be minimal and can be controlled at home by the administration of oral pain relievers. However, following the development of surgical techniques and the improvement in the quality of care, the number and complexity of procedures that can be performed in ambulatory surgery have increased considerably. Consequently, a significant number of patients will probably develop chronic post-operative pain without the possibility of early detection. The prevalence of chronic post-operative pain in ambulatory surgery has been studied by a single team. The authors conclude that it is underestimated and variable depending on the surgery between 15 and 32%. For the past few years, the GHPSJ has been using an ambulatory surgery algorithm that sends SMS messages to warn and follow up on patients. The principle is simple: patients scheduled for outpatient surgery receive text messages the day before their intervention to remind them of the instructions to be followed and the meeting times and, the day after the operation, the algorithm sends SMS to ask patients if all is well or if they have pain, nausea or vomiting, discharge from the scar. In postoperative monitoring, this technology has shown promising results. This technology has not been used in the screening of persistent pain. The objective of this work is to assess the effectiveness of an SMS algorithm in the early detection of postoperative neuropathic pain after surgery performed on an outpatient basis.
The purpose of this prospective study was to assess chronic pain 3, and 12 months after cesarean delivery in a cohort of women in University hospital La Paz. We also aim to study the possible contribution of anesthetic and surgical risk factors for the development of Chronic post-surgical pain after cesarean (PCSCP)
Oxycodone consumption and postoperative pain intensity in patients undergoing nephrectomy procedures. Of all study participants, 50% will obtain quadratus lumborum block (QLB).
Chronic post-thoracotomy pain is a significant adverse outcome of thoracic surgery. transcollation technology evaluated with a prospective randomized trial the effect of a multimodal no-compression suture technique of the intercostal space on postoperative pain occurrence in patients undergoing mini-thoracotomy. Patients undergoing a muscle-sparing lateral mini-thoracotomy for different thoracic diseases were randomly divided into two groups:one group received intercostal muscle flap harvesting and pericostal no-compression "edge" suture (IMF group), and the second group received a standard suture technique associated with an intrapleural intercostal nerve block (IINB group). The aim of the study was to demonstrate that the multimodal no-compression suture technique is a rapid and feasible procedure reducing early and chronic post‐thoracotomy pain intensity.
Postoperative Persistent Pain (PPP) is reported with a high incidence in adults 11.5-47%. This high incidence effects quality of life of patients causes social-economical problems and arises medico-legal issues. This study will be undertaken for producing a database by the evaluation of surgeries in 4 hospitals located in Istanbul. This database will be used in establishing a software by using data mining technology in the prediction of PPP
Fluctuations of female sex hormones during the menstrual cycle influence pain perception. Endogenous pain is pronounced in the follicular phase of the menstrual cycle. The investigators tested the primary hypothesis that the women having surgery during their follicular phase have more acute pain and require more opioids than those in the luteal phase, and secondarily the investigators tested that women who have surgery during their follicular phase have more incisional pain at 3 month postoperatively.
Total knee prosthetic replacement causes severe postoperative pain. Various analgesic techniques have been used in pain control. Comparison of epidural and femoral nerve block is lacking, furthermore effect on chronic pain is unclear. The investigators aimed to compare the effects of epidural and femoral block on acute and chronic postoperative pain.
The treatment of postoperative pain continues to be inadequate in the investigators practice setting. Inadequate pain treatment not only contributes to postoperative complications in the short term but can also be a factor that favors the development of chronic postoperative pain and diminishes long-term quality of life. Risk factors that can lead to a transition to chronic pain need to be analyzed.
This project a European observational study on the incidence and characteristics of chronic post surgical pain (CPSP). Research Questions - What is the incidence of chronic post surgical pain (CPSP) in Europe? - What are the risk factors of chronic post surgical pain (CPSP) related to surgery, patient and anaesthesia management? - What are the difference in incidence and risk factors in different European countries?
The investigators hypothesis is that perioperative infusion of 0.75 ropivacaine in patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy may modify the intensity of postoperative pain or the analgesic consumption during the first 24 hours.
