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
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)
The aim is to create a Czech version of pain assessment tools in children, the Simplified Faces Pain Scale (S-FPS) and the Simplified Concrete Ordinal Scale (S-COS), including methodology for their use in practice, and to establish their validity and reliability in pre-school children. The S-FPS is composed of three faces representing three different levels of pain, and the S-COS shows three blocks that symbolize three levels of intensity of pain. The instrument translation and linguistic validation process will be based on the International Society for Pharmacoeconomics and Outcomes Research guidelines (Wild et al., 2005). Validity and reliability will be tested by comparing the children´s pain intensity using the S-FPS and S-COS, which will be completed by the children, and the instrument Face, Legs, Activity, Cry, Consolability (FLACC), which will be completed independently by the attending nurse and the researcher. A repeated measures design will be used as all assessments will be performed prior to a painful procedure (peripheral venepuncture) and will be repeated twice after the painful procedure, once immediately after the painful procedure and a second time 5-10 minutes after the painful procedure. A total of 180 children with will be recruited (aged 3-6 years) from whom complete data will be obtained.
The association between pressure pain threshold and different aspects of low back pain has garnered attention over the years. However, since most of such studies in the past employed cross sectional designs, a longitudinal study design with follow-up measurements is required to further investigate this relationship. Studying this relationship will not only offer insights into the phenomenon of pain but may also bring us one step closer to achieving the seemingly insurmountable goal of objectively measuring back pain and its different dimensions.
The main aim of this study is to identify factors that may be associated with a better or worse response to interventional pain management therapies for the treatment of chronic lumbar pain in adult patients. If several predictive factors are to be identified, a predictive model will be developed.
This is a concept elicitation study to identify important aspects of pain assessment, treatment, and response to treatment in children under than 3 years of age from a caregiver's perspective.
This is a concept elicitation study to identify important aspects of acute pain assessment, treatment, and response to treatment in infants and young children, age 0 to 3 years old, from a clinician's perspective.
This will be an observational cohort study to evaluate pain measurement after surgery using a new functional pain scale.
