Filter by:The aim of this study is to compare the traditional dorsal double injection digital block with the palmar single injection technique in the suturing of acute traumatic hand finger lacerations in terms of injection pain score (NRS), anesthesia onset time, and success of anesthesia. It is understood that single injection digital block and double injection digital block techniques do not have significant advantages over each other in terms of pain levels and procedure times. However, the need for rescue anesthesia was evaluated to be lower in the single injection digital block technique. This difference is especially due to measurements in the volar region incisions. According to the results of this study, we think that choosing the single injection digital block technique for volar region incisions is a more rational approach, especially in terms of the data of the need for rescue anesthesia.
Pain in young children has been universally under-recognized due to their inability to describe or localize pain. Improvements in pharmacological interventions are necessary to optimize patient and family experience and allow for successful and efficient procedure completion. This is the first study that will compare three intranasal medications (Intranasal Midazolam, Dexmedetomidine, and Ketamine) to evaluate the length of stay after medication administration along with patient and provider satisfaction. The objective of this study is to demonstrate superior intranasal anxiolysis for pediatric laceration repairs with the shortest emergency department stay and highest patient and provider satisfaction. Based on previous studies and medication pharmacokinetics, we hypothesize that Intranasal Ketamine will have the shortest Emergency Department (ED) stay followed by Midazolam and then Dexmedetomidine with the longest stay; however, Dexmedetomidine will have the highest patient and provider satisfaction followed by Ketamine and then Midazolam.
This is a 3-arm adaptive clinical trial to the optimal light sedative for reducing distress during laceration repair in children. The investigators will compare intranasal (IN) dexmedetomidine, IN midazolam, and nitrous oxide (N20). The primary outcome is the Observational Scale of Behavioral Distress - Revised (OSBD-R).
In this non-interventional study (NIS) a polyamide non-absorbable suture (Dafilon®) will be evaluated for skin closure in adult and pediatric patients. The aim of the study is to collect clinical data on the performance of Dafilon® for skin closure. The results of this study will generate further clinical evidence for the use and the benefit of a non-absorbable surgical suture material produced from polyamide. Furthermore, the proactive collection of clinical data for Dafilon® suture will support the maintenance of the suture material on the market, so that in the future other patients can receive the suture material for skin closure.
To compare pain scores during laceration repair with first suture placement using standardized visual analog scale (VAS) between 2 different topical local anesthetic application techniques for using LET gel. Specifically, the investigators are studying if applying LET gel 3 times, spaced 10 minutes apart (triple LET) provides superior anesthesia to one 30 minute application (single LET). Single LET is the current standard method of application.
A prospective, randomized, controlled post-market clinical investigation that will enroll pediatric subjects requiring laceration repair. The investigation population will consist of 30 subjects fulfilling the eligibility criteria for the clinical investigation. The subjects will be randomly assigned at a 1:1 ratio to either the Zip 4 Surgical Skin Closure Device group or the Standard of Care sutures group.
A prospective randomized within-subject controlled study to compare the clinical performance of conventional autografting with and without the RECELL system on acute non-burn full-thickness skin defects.
an unbalanced (2:1) randomized study comparing two methods of traumatic skin closure in an ER setting: BandGrip vs suture
Often, repair of the cuts (laceration repair) proves to be traumatic for the children and the parents. Nasal spray (Intranasal/IN) approaches for procedural pain reduction, such as during dental work, have been demonstrated to make drug administration painless and well tolerated. We are comparing IN ketamine to IN midazolam and fentanyl for pain and reducing anxiety during repair of cuts in children.
The investigators propose a pilot study to examine the feasibility of utilizing immersive virtual reality to reduce procedural anxiety in children undergoing non-facial laceration repair in the Pediatric Emergency Department. The investigators hypothesize that virtual reality will be well-received by patients and their caregivers, and that the anxiety provoked by laceration repair will be mitigated by the immersive virtual reality experience.
