Filter by:The purpose of this study, entitled "Delivering Transcutaneous Auricular Neurostimulation as an Adjunct Non-Opioid Pain Management Therapy for Patients Undergoing Lumbar Fusion Surgery", is to demonstrate whether transcutaneous auricular neurostimulation (tAN) can non-invasively reduce the perception of pain in patients undergoing lumbar fusion surgery. tAN is placed on and around the ear to non-invasively stimulate branches of the vagus and trigeminal nerves and modulate specific brain regions associated with pain.
Cryoneurolysis is a regional anaesthetic technique that works by freezing peripheral sensory nerves. This technique can potentially provide analgesia after total knee arthroplasty (TKA). However, the technique is expensive and comprehensive. Pain 24 hours after surgery is associated with high amounts of late acute pain. Therefore, the aim of the current study was to compare the effect of postoperative cryoanalgesia with a sham treatment on acute postoperative pain in TKA patients with moderate to severe pain on the first postoperative day. The cryoanalgesia treatment will be performed 24 hours after surgery. Afterward, the patients will be followed for 24 weeks to determine the level of pain among other outcomes.
Chronic postsurgical pain (CPSP) refers to pain that occurs or increases after surgery and lasts longer than 3 months. Severe acute postoperative pain is one of the major risk factors of CPSP. Spinal correction surgery is associated with severe pain due to large trauma and long duration. Ketamine and esketamine are N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor antagonists; they have antihyperalgesic effects and may reduce CPSP. Dexmedetomidine is an alpha 2-adrenoceptor agonist with sedative, anxiolytic, and analgesic effect; it is frequently used as an adjuvant to postoperative analgesia. In a previous trial of 200 patients after scoliosis correction surgery, mini-dose esketamine-dexmedetomidine in combination with opioids significantly improved analgesia and sleep quality but did not reduce CPSP. The authors speculate that increasing esketamine dose in the combination may further improve analgesia and, therefore, reduce the occurrence of CPSP.
This is a prospective randomized controlled trial that will assess preoperative, perioperative, and long-term oxidative stress (OS); pain; and functional outcomes over a 12 month period and test the hypothesis that a potent antioxidant intervention (glycine + N-acetyl-cysteine(GlyNAC)) reduces oxidative stress and chronic post surgical pain (CPSP) in patients undergoing total knee arthroplasty (TKA).
The aim of this study is to compare the postoperative analgesic effect of intrathecal dexmedetomidine combined with bupivacaine and midazolam combined with bupivacaine in high tibial osteotomy.
The goal of this study's clinical trial is to compare in post-operative analgesic effectiveness of wound infiltration using bupivacaine, tramadol, and tramadol plus bupivacaine in patients undergoing elective cesarean section under spinal anesthesia. The main question the study aimed to answer is "which approach is best among the 3" all participants need to respond to the pain severity for the data collectors and they will receive treatments accordingly There will be 3 groups in the study - group T: for tramadol - group B: for bupivacaine - group TB : tramadol + bupivacaine
Scoliosis correction surgery is associated with severe pain. Patients after scoliosis correction surgery usually require high dose opioids and long duration analgesia, which may increase side effects and drug tolerance. In a recent trial, mini-dose esketamine and dexmedetomidine combination as a supplement to sufentanil significantly improved analgesia and subjective sleep quality after spinal correction surgery without increasing adverse events; however, the proportion of patients with moderate-to-severe pain remained high. The authors speculate that increasing esketamine dose in the combination may further improve analgesic effects.
This is a prospective, observational cohort study that will examine how sleep quality impacts postoperative pain and opioid consumption for pediatric patients. The investigators will administer a questionnaire preoperatively to determine which patients have poor or good sleep quality. They will then compare postoperative pain and opioid use between groups for two weeks following surgery. For a secondary aim, investigators will use electronic medication vials (eCAP) to monitor participants' medication use at home and compare to self-reporting.
Intravenous administration of lidocaine perioperatively after laparotomy for peritonitis could be an interesting alternative by reducing the duration of postoperative ileus, the intensity of pain and the patient's hospital stay, as well as the cost of management in our context of lack of financial, technical and human resources, hence the present study.
The aim of this single-center prospective observational trial is to study the influence of physical and psychological factors on the intensity of pain syndrome after anorectal interventions and to determine the association between the physiological pain threshold before surgery and the level of pain syndrome after anorectal surgery. Participants undergoing surgical treatment for anorectal diseases will be asked to complete the questionnaires before and after surgery, all information will be collected to identify risk factors for severe pain syndrome after surgery. The pain threshold test will be conducted to determine the association with pain after surgery.
