Filter by:Poststernotomy pain is a complication of cardiac surgery. Poorly controlled pain is associated with myocardial ischemia, cardiac arrhythmias, hypercoagulability, pulmonary complications, and increased rates of delirium and wound infection. The transverse thoracic muscle plane (TTMP) block is a novel plane block that provide pain for sternotomy. The aim of this study was to evaluate the analgesic effect of ultrasound guided TTMP block in patients undergoing open heart surgery.
The investigators are studying the ways that different music may change pain perception
This study will test the quality of opioid-related physician care decisions using a patient-simulation based measurement and feedback approach that combines multiple-choice care decisions with real-time, personalized scoring and feedback. The cases and feedback have been designed to align with the latest CDC opioid guidelines. The study will also measure the impact of gaming-inspired competition and motivation, including a weekly leaderboard, to improve evidence-based care decisions. The quality of care decisions will be measured in the simulations and in a multiple-choice assessment administered before and after the patient simulations.
Using a retrospective review of records, we will conduct a multivariate analysis to examine the relationship between exposure to ketamine, as an analgesic agent in combat related trauma care, the use of additional opioid pain medications, and patient reported pain levels.
The purpose of pilot study is to test the feasibility of nurse initiated post-operative bilateral auricular acupressure as an adjunct to medication for post-operative pain management.
It is a randomized controlled trial to determine the total tramadol consumption after major gynecological studies. Intervention groups include TAP block or local infiltration by the surgeon. These will be compared to a control group. Total tramadol consumption will be calculated and therefore pain control will be assessed.
The objective of this study is evaluate the breastmilk transfer and pharmacokinetics (Part 1) and effectiveness (Part 2) of a post-cesarean delivery intravenous ketamine bolus-and-infusion strategy, as a preventive analgesic modality to reduce pain and opioid requirements. In Part 1, physiochemical analysis of pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic (PK/PD) and breastmilk transfer of ketamine and its metabolites will be assessed. Additionally calculated estimations for neonatal and infant exposure will be assessed. In Part 2, PK/PD assessments will continue in a larger cohort; endpoints will also include postpartum pain, depression scores, central sensitization measures, patient-reported postpartum recovery scores, breastfeeding, and parent-infant bonding, assessed in the acute post-cesarean period and up to 12 weeks postpartum in a randomized controlled trial.
To compare between the intra muscular quadratous lamborum and the Trans muscular quadratous lamborum in pediatric population under going abdominal surgeries regards to first request of rescue analgesia, degree of pain relief, effect on hemo dynamic stability and incidence of complications.
This study aims to 1) observe the course of pain, 2) utilization of opioid pain medication, and 3) possible effect of a behavioral intervention delivered via an automated mobile phone messaging robot in patients undergoing surgical treatment of a traumatic orthopaedic injury.
A randomized controlled trial comparing esophageal manometry and ambulatory pH monitoring test tolerance in the presence versus in the absence of topical lidocaine.
