Filter by:Osteoarthritis of the knee joint is common and total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is performed in patients with advanced joint degeneration, no response to conservative treatments, severe pain and joint instability. Severe pain levels between 4 and 8 in visual analog pain scale (VAS) scores have been reported in the postoperative period. Multimodal analgesia is considered to be the best option for pain control after total knee arthroplasty. Multimodal analgesia is defined as the combined use of different analgesia techniques such as neuraxial analgesia, peripheral nerve blocks, patient-controlled analgesia and different analgesic drugs. For this purpose, peripheral nerve blocks are effectively applied as a component of multimodal analgesia. Thus, side effects such as nausea, vomiting, pruritus and sedation that may occur due to opioid use are reduced. At the same time, in addition to providing effective analgesia, peripheral blocks contribute to early initiation of rehabilitation of the knee joint, early ambulation, reduction of pulmonary complications and early discharge from the hospital. Recently, objective methods such as skin vasomotor reflex analysis, pupilometry, pulse plethysmographic signals and analgesia nociceptive index (ANI) have been used to standardize the need for intraoperative analgesia in patients under general anesthesia. Among these methods, ANI is a non-invasive method that provides continuous measurement of parasympathetic tone, which is a part of the autonomic nervous system. Electrodes are placed on the chest wall on both sides of the heart and the patient is monitored. The investigators aimed to compare the analgesia nociception index (ANI) and the conventional method to determine perioperative analgesic needs in patients undergoing total knee arthroplasty under general anesthesia with femoral nerve block.
The investigators aimed to compare the effects of ultrasound guided erector spina plan block and posterior quadratus lumborum block on intraoperative and postoperative opioid consumption in patients who will undergo short segment lumbar stabilization surgery.
The aim of this study is to compare ultrasound-guided ESBP and Rhomboid block in terms of postoperative pain management, postoperative opioid consumption and complications in patients undergoing lobectomy with VATS.Patients aged 18-75 years, ASA 1-2-3, who gave informed consent to lobectomy with video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS) method will be included in this study. Patients with contraindications for the application of either method, known chronic pain, local anesthetic allergy, spinal deformity or mental or psychiatric problems that prevent cooperation, taking anticoagulants, and infection at the injection site will not be included in the study. Patients who agree to participate in the study will be randomly assigned to one of the anesthesia groups of the study, which include ESPB (elector spina plane block) (Group 1) or Rhomboid block (Group 2). Randomization will be at a ratio of 1:1 and will be done by the closed-envelope method. Beforehand, a piece of paper with the name of one of the two groups will be placed inside the envelopes and the envelopes will be closed and mixed. A closed envelope will be drawn randomly for each patient before the procedure, and procedures will be carried out according to the group specified on the paper.
Intravenous lidocaine - a potent local anesthetic with analgesic and anti- inflammatory properties has been shown to be an effective adjunct that reduces intra and postoperative opioid consumption and facilitates pain management in adults. In children population promising but limited evidence is available. The study has been planned to evaluate the efficacy of continuous intravenous infusion of lidocaine in alleviation of hemodynamic reaction to tracheal intubation, as well as metabolic and hormonal response to laparoscopic procedure in children.
Background/objective: Bariatric surgery is often associated with moderate to severe pain. In obese individuals, opioids have the potential to induce ventilatory impairment; thus, opioid use needs to be limited. This study aimed to compare the novel ultrasound-guided erector spinalis plane block (ESPB) technique with controls in terms of intraoperative opioid consumption and postoperative pain control. Methods: A total of 63 patients with morbid obesity who underwent laparoscopic bariatric surgery were included in this randomized study. Patients were randomly assigned to the bilateral erector spina plane block (ESPB) group or the control group. To evaluate perioperative pain and to adjust opioid dose, analgesia nociception index (ANI) was monitored during surgery. Total opioid dose was recorded for each patient. In addition, pain was evaluated using visual analogue scale (VAS) scores for 24 hours following the operation.
The management and prediction of pain is one of the most crucial jobs for anesthetists. It has been shown that a patient's ability to remain calm during stressful situations is related to their post-surgical pain scores. The MetroDoloris Analgesia Nociception Index (ANI) monitor is a heart-rate monitor that provides us with a number which reflects a patient's state of relaxation (or parasympathetic tone). For this reason, the investigators are testing whether ANI can be used as a metric for perioperative anxiety, and a predictive tool for pain after c-sections.
General anesthesia combined subcostal transversus abdominis plane (TAP)or rectus sheath block (RSB)can significantly reduce the use of opiates in minimally invasive surgery.However, similar reduction was not observed in open abdominal surgery during perioperative period.Therefore, the investigators should try to improve the blocking methods to reduce the side effects of a large number of opiates. Based on the range and its analgesic effect of various nerve block is obviously related to the injection site of local anesthetics, this randomized controlled study hypothesized that modified RSB under the guidance of surgical incision may be more effective in inhibiting the harmful stimulation of surgery.
Patients presenting for normal spontaneous vaginal delivery who have a neuraxial anesthestic will be randomized to receive preservative free morphine or saline placebo after delivery.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate how effective is the intraoperative use of lidocaine to attenuate postoperative pain and opioids consumption after laparoscopic cholecystectomy
Breast cancer is the most common type of cancer in women. Mastectomy and axillary lymph node disection are commonly performed as part of the cancer management. This surgery can cause significant postoperative pain. The serratus plane block (SPB) has been described for analgesia of the hemithorax and reported for many cases such as thoracoscopy, shoulder arthroscopy, breast surgery and axillary lymph node dissections. Serratus plane block may be a viable alternative to current regional anaesthetic techniques such as thoracic paravertebral and central neuraxial blockade. The aim of this study is to determine effectiveness of ultrasound guided superficial serratus plane block in patients undergoing modified radical mastectomy and axillary lymph node dissection surgery.
