The goal of this study is to determine the effects of a corticosteroid administered to the psoas muscle following a transpsoas lateral lumbar interbody fusion (LLIF) on postoperative hip flexor weakness and thigh pain and numbness.
Early mobilization and rehabilitation can be difficult after total knee arthroplasty (TKA) due to a high incidence of moderate to severe postoperative pain. Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are important to multimodal analgesic protocols. Parecoxib is an NSAID that selectively inhibits the enzyme cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2). Clinical trials have shown that it does not alter platelet function or gastric mucosa. A recent study, after comparing ketorolac and parecoxib used at the same time in infiltration and systemically, found no differences in perioperative analgesia with a tendency to less bleeding in the parecoxib group. This randomized study will compare the effectiveness of adding a COX-2 inhibitor in the pain management of patients undergoing TKA as part of a multimodal analgesia regimen. The morphine consumption was selected as the primary outcome. The study hypothesis is that patients receiving parecoxib would have a lower opioid consumption.
The aim of this study is to compare the possible efficacy of baclofen and gabapentin on postoperative pain in patient with morbid obesity who will undergo laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy.
The use of regional anaesthesia techniques as part of multimodal analgesia in hip surgeries improves postoperative analgesia. PENG (Pericapsular nerve group) block is an effective motor sparing analgesia technique used in hip surgeries. The purpose of this study was to assess the efficacy of PENG block in terms of analgesic requirements and pain density in patients undergoing hip surgery, using two different concentrations of local anaesthetic.
The goal of this single-center, prospective, double-blind randomized controlled clinical trial is to explore preventive interventions for chronic postoperative pain (CPSP) in patients undergoing minimally invasive cardiac surgery. The main questions it aims to answer is: the incidence of CPSP is high and severe, and there is no safe and effective method for prevention and treatment. The participants in the dexamethasone palmitate (DXP) group will receive a single paravertebral space infusion of 21 ml of the first dose of analgesia, consisting of 0.5 percentage ropivacaine 20 ml and dexamethasone palmitate 1ml. The participants in dexamethasone sodium phosphate (DXM) group will receive a single infusion of a paravertebral space first dose of 21 ml of analgesic containing 0.5 percentage ropivacaine 20 ml and dexamethasone sodium phosphate 1ml. Then both groups use a continuous paravertebral nerve block pump for postoperative analgesia. The liquid of the pump is 250 ml 0.2 percentage ropivacaine. The background of the pump is set to 5 ml/h and PCA is set to 5 ml at an interval of 30 min.
Knee osteoarthritis pain is one of the conditions commonly seen in general and specialized medicine. Knee arthroplasty is one of the most successful orthopedic surgeries for the treatment of this disease, significantly improving pain, disability, and the overall quality of life for patients who undergo it. However, there is a subgroup of individuals in whom the pain persists or even worsens. Radiofrequency has been introduced over 10 years ago as a neuroablative technique targeting the genicular nerves, which innervate the sensory terminals of the knee joint, for the treatment of chronic pain in that region before or after arthroplasty. However, the results have not been entirely consistent. Recent anatomical studies have demonstrated the presence of other sensory terminal branches of the femoral nerve, such as the infrapatellar branch of the saphenous nerve, medial vastus nerve, intermediate vastus nerve, and lateral vastus nerve, which could be useful targets for the treatment of post-knee arthroplasty pain. To date, no studies have been conducted to address post-knee arthroplasty pain through the application of thermal radiofrequency on the sensory branches of the knee from the femoral nerve (infrapatellar branch of the saphenous nerve, medial vastus nerve, intermediate vastus nerve, lateral vastus nerve). Therefore, The investigators aim to conduct a randomized double-blind clinical trial where The investigators will apply thermal radiofrequency on the sensory terminal branches of the femoral nerve in the knee, based on recent anatomical studies. The objective of the study is to determine if radiofrequency ablation of sensory nerves in the knee improves pain and disability in patients with post-knee arthroplasty chronic pain at the L'Alt Penedés-Garraf Health Consortium. Method: This is a randomized double-blind clinical trial with two arms. Two groups will be used, where one group will receive thermal radiofrequency of sensory nerves in the knee, and the other group will receive a placebo treatment. The hypothesis The investigators propose is that radiofrequency ablation will alleviate at least 50% of baseline pain and disability in at least 50% of the patients.
The study attempts to quantify the relative risks for acute postoperative pain, complications rate, chronic postoperative pain (CPIP) and recurrence rate after different methods of repair of groin, umbilical and incisional hernia depending on surgical technique, mesh type and fixation suture material. For this purpose the investigators will analyze data from the Kalinigrad Hernia Registry (KHR).
Although shoulder surgeries can effectively relieve pain intensity and restore shoulder function, some patients reported persistent post-operative pain at the 6-month post-surgery follow-up visit. This randomized study aims to determine the effectiveness of three different types of bio-psychosocial support to pre-operative shoulder surgery patients. This study will examine the differential effects of brief mindfulness-based breathing, heart rate variability biofeedback (HRV-BF), and cognitive behavioral pain psychoeducation for pre-operative patients.
Despite modern day improvements in pain treatment and availability of different analgesic modalities, suboptimal postoperative pain control remains an issue in cardiac surgical patients. Poorly controlled acute postoperative pain is associated with adverse physiological outcomes that impair the recovery of cardiac surgical patients. It is associated with decreased patient satisfaction, delayed postoperative ambulation, and the development of chronic postsurgical pain (CPSP). Intravenous opioids such as fentanyl and morphine have been the mainstay of perioperative analgesia for cardiac surgery, either by intermittent boluses by healthcare staff or through a patient-controlled device (PCA). The primary problem with this mechanism of delivery is that significant fluctuations in serum opioid concentrations can occur, resulting in effects which range from inadequate analgesia to overdose and respiratory depression. In contrast to intermittent administration of short-acting opioids such as morphine and fentanyl, a single dose administration of methadone can be considered.
