Filter by:We conducted a randomized controlled trial in 120 patients undergoing an outpatient hysteroscopy (OH). 60 patients were randomly allocated to the control group and 60 patients were randomly allocated to the study group. The intervention in the study group was to use a virtual reality (VR) device (Meta Quest2) as a distraction technique during the OH. We wanted to study if the distraction generated by the VR could improve patients' perceived pain or satisfaction with the OH
This project will evaluate the feasibility of a new fully self-guided online Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) program entitled Advancing Online Psychology Tools for the Transitional Pain Service (ADOPT-TPS), developed on an online health application platform called Manage My Pain (MMP). The ACT program is designed to teach mindfulness skills and provide psychoeducation about post-surgical pain. The feasibility of the self-guided online program will be compared to a pre-existing psychologist-guided workshop that delivers the same program. It is anticipated that the self-guided online ACT program will be deemed feasible by participants.
This study will be conducted to determine the effect of mechanical vibration and Helfer Skin Tap technique applied during intramuscular Hepatitis B vaccination on procedural pain level, crying time and procedure time in healthy infants.
In this study, the effect of the therapeutic game applied before treatment on pain, fear, anxiety and physiological parameters and the satisfaction of the parents was investigated.
This interventional study aims to test gait biomechanics in healthy individuals with and without experimental muscle pain in the lower extremities. The study aims to: A) Examine how experimental muscle pain in different types of muscles (ankle plantar-flexion, knee extension, and flexion muscles) affects kinematics, kinetics, and muscle activation Participants will receive six muscle injections: a) Hypertonic saline (painful condition) and b) Isotonic saline (control condition) in 1) m. gastrocnemius, 2) m. semitendinosus, and 3) m. biceps femoris.
Objectives: To prospectively evaluate the potential of acu-TENS to reduce the pain experienced by women undergoing ultrasound-guided manual vacuum aspiration (USG-MVA) and evaluate its safety profile. Hypothesis to be tested: Does the use of acu-TENS reduce pain in women undergoing USG-MVA? Design and subjects: A prospective randomized control trial will be carried out at the Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology of the Prince of Wales Hospital. Women undergoing USG-MVA for the treatment of early pregnancy loss before 12 weeks of gestation will be randomized to receive acu-TENS (intervention group) or sham acu-TENS (control group) for pain control during USG-MVA. We will recruit 54 participants in each of the two arms, so a total of 108 patients will be recruited. Study instruments: USG-MVA will be performed using a 60ml charged syringe (MedGyn Aspiration Kit) with a flexible curette attached to it. Transabdominal ultrasound during the MVA procedure will be performed using Mindray DC-80A Diagnostic Ultrasound System. Acu-TENS will be performed using MTR+ Myolito Multifunctional Stimulator (MTRP-00003). Main outcome measures: Primary outcome includes pain scores before, during and after USG-MVA. Secondary outcomes include (1) stress levels measured by heart rate, heart rate variability, blood pressure, State Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI), and salivary cortisol; (2) anxiety level; (3) Surgeon's assessment on the patient co-operation score and patient intraoperative pain, (4) Client Satisfaction Questionnaire (CSQ8) and satisfaction score, and (5) any adverse events of acu-TENS. Data analysis: Data analysis will be performed using the Statistical Packages of Social Sciences for Windows (SPSS, Inc). Expected results: We expect that acu-TENS will result in at least a 35% reduction in pain experienced by women undergoing USG-MVA.
The aim of this study is to assess whether an intervention with open-label placebo (OLP) for non-specific pain in the emergency department is feasible.
This study is about a new pain relief medication called methoxyflurane. Pain from injuries, like broken bones, is a big reason people call ambulances. It's important to treat pain well because it can make people sick and slow down healing. But often, pain isn't treated enough, which can lead to more problems. Paramedics use different drugs to manage pain, but some are hard to give and need special training and equipment. Methoxyflurane is a new option. It's a gas you breathe in through a special inhaler. It's been used in Australia and New Zealand for a long time and has shown to work quickly and safely for different kinds of pain. This study wants to see if methoxyflurane works well for people with moderate to severe pain from injuries compared to other medicines like Advil, Tylenol and opioids. It's testing if methoxyflurane can give fast pain relief and if paramedics find it easy to use. The study will help understand if methoxyflurane could be a good option for treating pain in ambulances.
This study will be investigated the effects of facilitated tucking, ShotBlocker and combined facilitated tucking and ShotBlocker methods on procedural pain, crying time and duration of the procedure during Hepatitis B vaccine administration in healthy term infants.
This will be a double-blind randomized control trial in women with stress urinary incontinence who are undergoing an outpatient transurethral bulking procedure for stress urinary incontinence. Subjects will be identified by the University of Rochester urologists and urogynecologists participating in the study who currently oversee stress incontinence care. Subjects will be randomized into two groups. One group will be undergoing the cystoscopy with transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) for analgesia, and the second group will have the cystoscopy with placebo TENS.
