Filter by:This study investigate the effect of pre-operative ultrasound guided stellate ganglion block with local anesthetic on the frequency of neuropathic pain syndromes in the first 6-month post cancer breast surgeries with axillary dissection.
Patient who will be presented to Tanta University Hospitals complaining of acute herpes zoster with onset of vesicular eruption less than 7 days will be included in this clinical study. Patients will be excluded if they refused participation, had allergy to local anesthetics, coagulopathy, local infection, glaucoma, or neurological deficit. All the patients will receive acyclovir (antiviral therapy) and pregablin (analgesic) and the patients will be classified into two groups:- Group I (control group): Patients will receive sham block weekly for three times Group III (SGB group): Patients will receive stellate ganglion block weekly for three times The time of first block after the onset of vesicular eruption, the incidence of PHN, NPRS at visit, duration of acute HZ , duration of PHN (if occurred), and the incidence of complication will be measured.
This study aims to compare the outcomes of patients with long segment Hirschsprung disease or total colonic aganglionosis who had negative calretinin staining and positive ganglion cells on the proximal resection margins to those who had both positive findings.
A study to examine the safety and potential effectiveness of human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (hUMSCs) in adults who have suffered spontaneous cerebral hemorrhage in basal ganglia. The hypothesis is that hUMSCs will be safe and can improve neurological function after intracerebral hemorrhage so that improve the prognosis of patients.
This is a clinical trial to assess the efficacy of botox treatment of the sphenopalatine ganglion as an add-on treatment in drug resistant migraine. An injection targeting the ganglion is made possible by an image-guided device developed specifically for this purpose (MultiGuide) Study participants will be randomized to either placebo or botox after a 4 week run-in period. First, one injection will be given towards both the right and the left ganglion. After that there will be a follow-up of 12 weeks for efficacy and safety evaluation. The main efficacy measure is change in number of moderate to severe headache days before and after injection.
In recent years, a number of randomized controlled trials have confirmed the efficacy and safety of acupuncture in the treatment of allergic rhinitis (AR). Indeed, the latest American clinical guidelines recommended acupuncture treatment for AR patients who are interested in non-pharmacological treatment. In conventional acupuncture treatment for AR, needles are inserted at specific acupoints in the body; with several studies demonstrating acupuncture of sphenopalatine ganglion (SPG) to improve nasal symptoms and quality of life in nasal inflammatory diseases. The investigators hypothesize that, compared with sham acupuncture and rescue medication (RM), active SPG acupuncture combined with RM would lead to greater improvements in symptoms score and reduction in overall need for antihistamines. To test this hypothesis the investigators design a randomized, double blind, controlled trial to evaluate the efficacy of SPG acupuncture in pollen-induced seasonal AR patients and to explore the potential underlying mechanisms.
Spontaneous cerebral hemorrhage is one of the main causes of death and disability all over the world, accounting for 20%-30% of all cerebrovascular diseases. Minimally invasive surgery of cerebral hemorrhage, especially puncture aspiration, can improve early and long-term neurological recovery in patients with cerebral hemorrhage. Until now, no standardized practice for minimally invasive surgery of spontaneous cerebral hemorrhage has been established. Hematoma puncture and drainage based on CT scans without precise localization and personalized approach design, which may lead to poor efficacy and high risk of complications. Our hospital has much experience in treating cerebral hemorrhage with stereotactic puncture and aspiration. So we conduct a prospective multicenter randomized controlled clinical trial to determine the therapeutic effects of puncture aspiration plus thrombolysis treatment for the perioperative and long-term recovery of patients with small to moderate hematoma in deep basal ganglia via computerized precision coordinates and personalized approach design.
Cluster headache is a primary headache condition characterized by clusters of one-sided, high-intensity pain attacks. The headache may be episodic or chronic. Treatment options are limited and their effects unsatisfactory. An important nerve pathway involved in the pain attacks has a switching station at the sphenopalatine ganglion (SPG) located in the depth of the facial bones. SPG is a known therapy target for cluster headache. The area can be identified on CT images, but is difficult to access due to its location. Thus, the Multiguide navigation system has been developed to enable precise delivery of the drugs that target SPG activity. In Trondheim, two phase 1 / Phase 2 study have been carried out using botulinum toxin A (Botox®) against SPG in patient with chronic cluster headache and chronic migraine. The results indicate that such a treatment strategy is safe and beneficial. The current study is a randomized, placebo-controlled, triple-blinded study to investigate whether precise single-injection of botulinum toxin A reduces the frequency of attacks in chronic cluster headache .
To investigate the influence of stellate ganglion block on tourniquet response during surgery in patients undergoing elective lower limb Department of orthopedics.
To evaluate the value of US-guided Stellate ganglion block for improving radial arterial blood flow and peripheral perfusion in Septic shock patients on vasopressor support with an indwelling radial arterial cannula, which can result in reduced incidence premature failure of the catheter (due to vasospasm or thrombosis) and incidence of ischemic complications in the cannulated arm.
