Filter by:The goal of this clinical trial is to compare analhesia effects of adductor canal blockade versus distal adductur canal blockade added anterior cutaneus nerve block in total knee arthroplasty. The main questions it aims to answer are: - question 1: does distal adductor canal blockade + anterior cutaneus nerve blokade superior analgesia then adductor canal block for undergoing TKP? - question 2: does distal adductor canal blockade + anterior cutaneus nerve blokade decrease drain place pain on anterolateral face of knee?
The emotion Egg, or "eEgg" for short, is a sample series of a device for testing a new pain measurement method that is not yet on the market. The aim is to investigate whether the trial device and the eEgg method (eEgg plus software) are suitable for supporting, improving or even replacing the communication between doctor and patient, which still takes place via the numerical rating scale (NRS) and the pain diary. Issues of acceptability in comparison to the pain diary and the NRS are to be considered. Measurements should be recorded in real time; no orientation to the previous value is possible for the patient.
This study was a single-group crossover clinical trial, where each participant acted as their own control. The study aimed to describe the relationship between perceived pain and the duration of intramuscular injections
Little is known about pain-related outcomes experienced by patients in the first few weeks after surgery, once they are discharged from hospital. This study aims to characterize pain, pain-related interference, and early neuropathic pain in the sub-acute phase after surgery.
The Newborn Infant Parasympathetic Evaluation (NIPE) was developed as a method of analysis of the heart rate variability. The monitor gives a value between 0 (low value of the parasympathetic component) and 100 (high value of the parasympathetic component). So far, the measure of the heart failure variability by using the NIPE in infant born very premature ventilated and sedated in neonatal reanimation has not been realised and validated as an evaluation method of the pain and discomfort related to neonatal care.
Ankle fractures are one of the main causes of hospitalization due to injuries in Chile, which also have a discharge and partial load time of approximately 12 weeks in the recovery process. This generates disuse and atrophy of the posterior musculature of the leg called the triceps sural, which makes it difficult to restart and perform the gait. We conducted this research because practically all patients with this type of diagnosis have trigger points in these muscles, and dry needling technique is one of the best for its treatment, but has the disadvantage that it produces post dry needling pain of 48 hours and there is not enough information, or consensus on which method is better to reduce post dry needling pain. This study aims to prove wich technique is most useful in reducing pain post dry needling for the treatment of trigger points in the triceps sural muscle in ankle post fracture patients.
The objective of this research study is to show whether data given by Oura ring could be used to objectively measure patients pain and well-being before and after disc surgery.
The randomized controlled trial study aims to validate a new pain monitor during general anesthesia by comparing the new ANSPEC-PRO monitor (non-CE marked) with already CE-marked pain monitors (Medstorm and Medasense). One hundred and eighty patients will be randomized into six groups, wherein each group has 30 patients. Patients preparing for a surgical operation under general anesthesia will be included to be monitored for pain during surgery procedure, while the standard monitoring, medication, and standard care will not be disturbed. Pain monitoring is done with the ANSPEC-PRO, MEDASENSE, or MEDSTORM in the operation room, before and during general anesthesia: the pain monitor will record data continuously, while the following will be recorded in parallel: blood pressure, heart rate, saturation, CO2, O2 end-tidal concentrations, electromyogram, signal quality, the given amount of analgesics and hypnotics, and TOF (train-of-four).
Pain can currently be quantified using quantitative sensory tests (QSTs). However, we lack knowledge concerning how relational and contextual factors impact these quantitative tests. We will examine how a standard QST battery is affected by "removing" the social and human interaction from the test session compared to usual QST testing where the participant is guided through the assessment by a research assistant. Our objectives are: 1. How is the QST affected when guided by a research assistant compared to guided by a computer 2. Does the level of the assessor's empathy affect the QST outcome 3. How do psychological factors affect the QST testing 4. are these outcomes affected by the patient profile (low back pain patients vs healthy controls)
- Introduction and objectives: Non-pharmacological interventions in patients with musculoskeletal chronic non-cancer pain (mCNCP) are positioning themselves as an essential pillar in treatment along with pharmacological and interventional treatment. Training the patient in psycho-educational interventions focused on the neuroscience of pain and accompanying them towards a better coping of their disease can decrease the perception of pain and improve their quality of life. A previous pilot study, developed by the researchers about this type of interventions, identified as relevant data an improvement in the quality of life (QoL) of patients with mCNCP with a significant decrease in pharmacological consumption, and a high degree of satisfaction on the part of the user through the analysis of PROMs (patient-reported outcome measures). The main objective of this study is to know the effectiveness in the perception of pain through the Verbal Numerical Rating Scale (VNRS) and in the quality of life through the EuroQol-5D (EQ-5D) questionnaire of a psychoeducational intervention focused on emotional coping strategies, in patients with mCNCP in the Primary Care Centres of Public Health System of Aljarafe-Sevilla Norte Area (Spain). Secondarily, the consumption of health resources associated with mCNCP, the adherence to treatment, the influence of social, emotional, and family variables will be studied by the researchers in the two groups of patients on each telephone assessment. - Methodology: Prospective, randomized, triple-blind (patient, investigator, and analysis) and controlled clinical trial. Participants with mCNCP in follow-up in Primary Care without clinical control with the treatment scheduled and who agree to participate in the study will be randomized by blocks permuted to receive treatments and standard care (control group) or these same care plus a psychoeducational intervention (experimental group). This intervention consists of an emotional self-regulation training program of four face-to-face sessions of 3 hours each, over a four-week period. The study will include 144 participants (72 for each arm). Patient follow-up will be telephone at the time of inclusion, at month, three, and six months. A descriptive and multivariate analysis will be done with the patients' research data associated with pain or QoL, post-intervention. - Ethics and dissemination: The study will be carried out following the Helsinki Declaration and is approved by the Committee on Ethics of Research of Virgen Macarena- Virgen del Rocío university hospitals in Seville, Spain (code 1589-N-19). The results of the trial will be published under CONSORT regulations and SPIRIT guideline.
