Filter by:The goal of this study is to test two behavioral interventions for chronic insomnia in individuals with chronic pain and use prescribed opioid medication to treat their chronic pain.
Arthroscopic hip surgery is being increasingly performed to treat both intraarticular and extraarticular hip diseases. Despite the minimally invasive approach, patients undergoing arthroscopic hip surgery still suffer severe pain due to the complex nature of hip innervation. Postoperative pain reduces patient satisfaction and delay patient recovery and discharge. The efficacy of regional anesthesia techniques in postoperative pain management have been proved in various surgeries. However, it remains controversial whether or not peripheral nerve blocks can significantly improve postoperative analgesia after hip arthroscopy. Several studies have shown that the fascia iliac block cannot improve postoperative analgesia for hip arthroscopy because it blocks only some branches of the lumbar plexus but not the sacral plexus. Circum-Psoas Block (CPB) which has been defined in recent years is able to block the lumbar plexus nerves as well as sacral plexus such as the sciatic, superior gluteal, and inferior gluteal nerves. Therefore, the investigators predict that it can provide effective postoperative analgesia for hip arthroscopy. In this study, the researchers aim to investigate the effectiveness of CPB in hip arthroscopy.
The goal of this clinical trial is to test the effectiveness of the Serratus Anterior Plane Block in patients with rib fractures. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Determine if UG-SAPB results in an improved pain, incentive spirometry, and cough ability (PIC) score when compared to usual care over the first five hours. - Evaluate if UG-SAPB results in fewer opioid medications administered when compared to usual care over the first 24 hours. Participants will undergo the Serratus Anterior Plane. Researchers will compare this to usual care to see if this intervention improves pulmonary function and reduces opioid requirements for ED patients with rib fractures.
Loneliness, which is the perceived feeling of insufficient personal relationships, is related to higher risk for inappropriate opioid use and opioid use disorders in patients who are taking opioids long-term. The study seeks to pilot test the evidence-based loneliness interventions of psychological therapy and social navigation in patients on chronic opioids treated in primary care practices to determine if reducing loneliness can lower opioid misuse.
This clinical trial aims to determine the optimal timing for administering a Transversus Abdominis Plane (TAP) block in bariatric surgery, specifically investigating whether initiating TAP blocks at the beginning of surgery is more beneficial than at the end, which is the current practice. The study targets obese patients undergoing bariatric surgery, with a focus on reducing postoperative pain and opioid use. Key outcomes include recovery duration, pain levels, opioid consumption, and respiratory function. Successful results could establish early TAP block initiation as a standard practice, offering faster recovery, decreased opioid reliance, and reduced healthcare costs.
The aim of this study is to compare the efficacy of Opioid-free anesthesia (OFA) with opioid anaesthesia (OA) in patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC).
This study will aim to investigate the gut microbiota in Egyptian patients with opioid use disorders and correlate microbiota bacterial abundance with clinical data.
This will be a prospective, double-blind randomized controlled clinical trial. There will be two arms of treatment: intervention and control group. Preoperatively patients will be allocated at random to receive ultrasound guided bilateral ESP block either with the local anesthetic (intervention group) normal saline (control group). The aim of this study is to examine the effect of ESP block to increase the Quality of Recovery (measured via QoR-15 total score) and decrease opioid consumption.
This Clinical Trial will evaluate the Feasibility and Acceptability of Oxygen Saturation Monitoring using Masimo SafetyNet Alert (MSNA) in a Supportive Housing Program
The effective management of post-operative pain in the setting of bariatric surgery presents significant hurdles for both anesthesiologists and surgeons. The objective of this study was to assess the effects of opioid-free anesthesia (OFA) using the modified mulimix technique on the levels of plasma interleukin-2 (IL-2) and interleukin-6 (IL-6) as the primary outcome. Additionally, the study aimed to evaluate the duration of analgesia and the analgesic requirements within the first twenty-four hours after surgery.
