Filter by:This study will investigate the effect of different durations of music interventions (1, 5 and 20 minutes of music) on pain tolerance.
In this study, continuous erector spinae plane block (ESPB) will be compared to continuous epidural analgesia in patients undergoing elective hip replacement surgery. Opioid consumption, pain severity, quadriceps femoris muscle strength, ability to walk, and quality of recovery will be evaluated. Moreover, chronic pain severity in months after the hospital discharge will be assessed.
It can cause physiological and behavioral changes in infants such as pain, tachycardia, hypoxemia, increased blood pressure, grimacing, prolonged crying, and irritability. Vaccination is an important part of neonatal nursing care. Newborns express their pain nonverbally and behaviorally. Therefore, any pain assessment is based on the ability of others to recognize pain symptoms. This randomized controlled trial was planned to evaluate the effect of heart sound and white noise on pain and physiological parameters during intramuscular injection of hepatitis B vaccine in newborns. This randomized controlled study used parallel trial design.
This study aims to assess if EMLA or ethyl chloride spray are effective in reducing the pain associated with local anaesthetic administration in cutaneous surgery of the head and neck compared to a placebo and control group through a randomized control trial study design.
Complications after mastectomy include chronic pain and depression.
In recent years, obesity has become one of the leading health problems worldwide. It is known that obesity can cause various diseases and negatively impact the quality of life. Therefore, many conditions believed to be affected by obesity and relevant to patients' quality of life have been scientifically investigated and continue to be researched. One of these conditions is postoperative pain, with studies in the literature indicating that postoperative pain levels increase in parallel with each unit increase in BMI. The incidence of lumbar disc herniation (LDH) is on the rise and adversely affecting the quality of life. The primary surgical intervention for LDH is discectomy. In recent years, various less invasive techniques, such as microdiscectomy, have been described to improve both surgical and analgesic outcomes. However, even with microdiscectomy surgery, postoperative pain may occur, and its control should be well-managed. Inadequate pain control can lead to unwanted effects of postoperative pain. Regional analgesia techniques may be preferred for effective analgesic treatment after spinal surgery. Methods such as paravertebral block, erector spinae plane block (ESPB), thoracolumbar interfascial plane block are widely used for analgesia in spinal surgery. The effectiveness of these regional techniques may vary depending on various factors, one of which is BMI. The hypothesis in this study is that as BMI increases, the level of pain in patients may also increase. As a result, this study aims to investigate the relationship between BMI and postoperative pain levels in patients undergoing standard LDH surgery, anesthesia, and analgesia.
The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of a vein imaging device and virtual reality distraction on the success of peripheral intravenous catheter (PIC) placement, intervention duration, emotional appearance, pain, fear, and anxiety related to PIC intervention in children aged 4-10 years in a pediatric emergency unit.
Hip fractures are morbid conditions, especially in elderly patients, and their treatment is usually surgical. Pericapsular nerve group block targets the hip capsule. The aim of this study is to investigate and compare the perioperative analgesic efficacy of PENG blocks applied investigation of the effect of perinuerally and systemic dexamethasone on pain scores in the first 24 hours of PENG block in patients undergoing hip fracture surgery under spinal anesthesia.
Subjects will be screened over the phone or in Tufts GYN clinic for participation in the study. If eligible and interested in participating, written informed consent (and assent if applicable) will be obtained. After informed consent/assent, the patient will be enrolled in the study. The patient will decide if they desire to use TENS unit during IUD insertion appointment and inform the study team. The clinic visit will proceed as normal, with additional study proceedings as follows. The study personnel will complete the 'Background Questionnaire' with the patient prior to IUD insertion. During the IUD insertion appointment, study personnel will assist in collection of the 'Study visit' data collection form. This includes recording the patient's pain score at various time points throughout the insertion procedure: - anticipated pain during IUD insertion - baseline pain prior to insertion - speculum insertion - tenaculum placement - paracervical block administration (if performed) - cervical dilation (if performed) - uterine sounding - IUD insertion - 5 minutes after IUD insertion Study personnel will also time the insertion procedure and collect additional data as outlined in the 'Study visit data collection form.' After IUD insertion, the participant will be asked to complete the 'Post-IUD Insertion Survey.' Once this survey is complete, this will conclude the study participation. Participation will last through the study visit only. As part of the standard of care, a urine pregnancy test will be obtained and confirmed negative prior to IUD insertion. Patients will receive routine pain management modalities per shared decision-making with their clinical provider which may include NSAID administration, paracervical block, and heating pad.
The study is exploring whether, and for how long, taVNS may modulate deep muscular pressure pain thresholds, heartbeat, and thermal perception (Ethics Region Nord Jylland Denmark, N-20230022). To achieve this, 20 healthy subjects will complete a randomized, active control, crossover study. The main intervention is left concha taVNS (NEMOS, CerboMed GmbH, Erlangen, Germany) for 20 minutes (200µs duration, 20Hz, at a personalized intensity). This will be compared to an active control of identical electrical stimulation to the left earlobe. A blinding assessment inquiring which stimulation is supposed to be therapeutic will be collected. Main outcomes are pressure pain thresholds and temporal summation of pain responses acquired via cuff-pressure algometer (Cortex Technology, Aalborg University, Denmark) placed at the calf. Heartbeat perception, assessed via the heartbeat counting task, and thermal perception, assessed using a QST thermal grid, are also primary outcomes. Secondary outcomes are conditioned pain modulation, resting state electroencephalography, electrocardiography, and pupillary light reflexes.
