Filter by:The aim of this prospective observational study is to detect rebound pain and related factors in postoperative patients with total knee arthroplasty.
The purpose of this study is to identify a tolerable dose for postpartum ketamine infusion using a maximum tolerated dose (MTD) 3+3 design. A loading dose over 1 hour will be the MTD variable to be tested, as our data suggest that ketamine side effects occur with the loading dose. The investigators hypothesize that subanesthetic ketamine dose will be well tolerated and any noted side effects will be rated acceptable by postpartum women following cesarean delivery.
A pilot randomized controlled trial comparing intercostal nerve blocks, cryo-ablation plus intercostal nerve blocks, and serratus plane catheter plus intercostal nerve blocks in patients undergoing esophagectomies with minimally invasive thoracic approaches.
The purpose of this trial is to compare the difference in the proportion of patients with tolerable pain scores, VAS pain scores, quality of recovery and opioid use in milligram equivalents (at 24, 48, 72, 96 and 120 hours postoperatively) in patients undergoing shoulder arthroplasty who receive interscalene blocks with or without Liposomal Bupivacaine. This is a prospective randomized, double-blinded, controlled trial that will enroll 130 subjects undergoing total shoulder arthroplasty or reverse total shoulder arthroplasty. Participants who meet all eligibility criteria will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to receive either 36 mL of 0.5% bupivacaine (PB group) or 10 mL of liposomal bupivacaine and 20 mL of 0.25 % bupivacaine and 6 mL of saline (LB group).
The goal of this randomized control trial is to in [describe participant population/health conditions]. The main question it aims to answer is: • Is the use of intraoperative subpectoral bupivacaine associated with decreased post-operative pain in adolescent patients who undergo bilateral reduction mammaplasty Participants will be randomized into the study group that intraoperatively receives 20cc of subpectoral bupivacaine injections or into the control group that intraoperatively receives 20cc of injectable saline subpectorally. All participants will keep a pain log and pain medication log at home for the first week following surgery. Researchers will compare to see if patients who receive subpectoral bupivacaine have lower pain scores in the PACU, and lower use of narcotics post-operatively when compared to the control group who receive injectable saline.
Aims: The purpose of this randomized clinical trial is to assess and compare the post operative pain, swelling and quality of life after endodontic microsurgery using either conventional osteotomy or piezoelectric osteotomy . The PICO question that will be used is Does endodontic microsurgery using piezoelectric osteotomy have similar clinical performance in terms of post operative pain and swelling to that of endodontic microsurgery using conventional hand-piece osteotomy. Material and methods: based on solid inclusion criteria , a total of 44 patients in need of endodontic microsurgery will be randomly distributed into two groups (n=22) according to the osteotomy technique: conventional and piezoelectric osteotomy. A standardized microsurgical technique will be employed. After the microsurgery procedure, a pain questionnaire that contain visual analogue scale will be given to each patient to evaluate the pain incidence and intensity at 5 time intervals, 24 hours, 48 hours, 72 hours, 96 hours and 120 hours. The patients will be recalled as well, at days 2 and 7 to evaluate the swelling. Statistical analysis will be performed using chi-square test and linear regression analysis.
The incidence of postoperative pain is highly prevalent among surgical patients. Inadequate postoperative pain control can slow the recovery and it increases the risk of postoperative complications, namely lung collapse and chronic pain. Although morphine is the one of the gold standard analgesia option for postoperative pain, it comes with many unwanted adverse effects, such as severe nausea and vomiting, low blood pressure and dizziness. Thus, multimodal analgesia regime, including local anaesthetic (lignocaine) is strongly advocated for postoperative analgesia. The normal route of lignocaine is injected into vein for the properties of analgesia and anti-inflammatory. It exerts its effect via the systemic absorption of drugs to block the central neuronal pain transmission. In recent years, studies have demonstrated that instillation of lignocaine inside abdominal cavity can reduce internal organ pain by blocking free nerve ending inside abdomen with minimal systemic absorption of drug and lower complications of systemic toxicity of local anaesthesia as compared to the intravenous route of lignocaine. Several RCTs showed the beneficial effect of intraperitoneal lignocaine for the reduction of postoperative visceral pain after laparoscopic surgery. However, gynaecological open surgery (cystectomy, hysterectomy) involves greater degree of manipulation and trauma on the internal organs with greater visceral pain, resulting in longer duration of hospitalisation and delayed functional mobility recovery. It is believed that the intraperitoneal lignocaine reduces inflammatory response after surgery and exert analgesia effect by blocking the neural signal transmission at site of tissue injury. Therefore, it is important to conduct this study to examine the analgesic effect of intraperitoneal lignocaine in women undergoing gynaecological open surgery.
Background: Multimodal analgesia for control of postoperative pain in cardiac surgical patients helps in early recovery and ambulation. Pectoral nerve (PECS) block with ropivacaine is novel, less invasive regional analgesic technique with an effect comparable to paravertebral, and thoracic epidural analgesia. Aim: The aim of this study is to assess the effect of dexmedetomidine as an adjuvant to ropivacaine on the quality and efficiency of the ultra-sound guided pectoralis nerve block in patients undergoing open heart surgery through midline sternotomy for fast-track anesthesia and postoperative analgesia.
Lower abdominal operations; especially inguinal hernia repairs are one of the most frequently performed operations in the daily practice of pediatric surgeries.Regional anesthesia techniques are frequently and effectively used methods in postoperative pain control. Main purpose of this study is to compare the analgesic effect of ultrasound-guided erector spinae plane block and caudal block in pediatric unilateral inguinal hernia operations
The goal of this clinical trial is to investigate the effects of ultrasound-guided pudendal nerve block on postoperative pain, opioid consumption, and quality of recovery in patients receiving Ferguson hemorrhoidectomy.
