Filter by:TAPA is a new analgesic block technique that involves the injection of local anesthetics into the thoracoabdominal nerves using a perichondrial approach. Application to the undersurface of the rib cartilage is considered as Modified TAPA (M-TAPA). These techniques are commonly applied for postoperative analgesia in surgeries and are effective and safe when performed under ultrasound guidance.
To compare the effect of M-TAPA block and port-site local anesthetic infiltration on postoperative pain in pediatric laparoscopic appendectomies. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Is M-TAPA block more effective in reducing pain? - How M-TAPA block affects the use of rescue analgesics in the postoperative period? Participants will have the same anaesthetic agents during surgery, before extubation they will have same analgesic agent for postoperative pain. Participants in the M-TAPA group will undergo USG-guided M-TAPA block bilaterally with % 0.025 Bupivacaine max dose of 2 mg/kg by the same experienced anesthesiologist before extubation. Participants in the LAI group will be administered 0.025% Bupivacaine at a maximum dose of 2mg/kg divided equally and administered by the surgeon at 3 port entry sites before the patient is extubated.
Liposomal bupivacaine or Exparel (Pacira Biosciences) is a long-lasting nonopioid analgesic that was initially utilized as an infiltrative agent but has more recently become U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved for use in interscalene brachial plexus nerve blockade as well as infiltrative blockade. Delivery in this form is reported to provide up to 72 hours of extended-release bupivacaine. Exparel's use as a regional anesthetic has also become increasingly common and has shown promise when utilized in Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) reconstruction.
Biomedical research consists of two main parts. In the first part, the pilonidal cyst-specific quality of life questionnaire is compiled, adapted, validated, tested for suitability in assessing patients after pilonidal cyst operations. The second part will compare two pilonidal cyst operations. A prospective, comparative, randomized clinical study will be conducted.
The purpose of this study is to determine if patients age 15 to 30 years old being treated for shoulder labrum repair and SLAP lesions have significant differences in pain levels postoperatively when treated with a combination therapy of ibuprofen, and acetaminophen compared to oxycodone. Participants will be randomly placed into either the control arm and receive scripts for non-narcotic medications (Tylenol and Ibuprofen) and opioids, or the experimental arm of the study. receiving only a prescription for the non-narcotic medications. Every patient will receive a preoperative Exparel nerve block as is the standard of care for this procedure. Both groups will fill out a pain journal for 14 days following surgery and complete a pill count at the first postoperative visit to validate the amount of pain medication documented in the pain journal.
Patients who meet the enrollment criteria will be randomized 1:1 to the lidocaine group or placebo group.
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare pre-incision vs laparoscopic assisted Transversus abdominis plane and rectus sheath block in patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy. The main question it aims to answer is: • if the effectiveness of TAP and rectus sheath block varies according to whether it is performed pre-incisional (pre emptive) or intraoperatively under Laparoscopic vision for laparoscopic cholecystectomies. Participants will be assessed for pain at 3,6,12, and 24 hrs after surgery. Researchers will compare pain score between Laparoscopic-assisted TAP block(LATAP) and Rectus Sheath block vs Pre-incision TAP (PITAP ) .
To assess the safety, efficacy, and pharmacokinetics of oral SafeTynadol, Naldebain and Naldebain combine with SafeTynadol in the treatment of moderate to severe pain following knee replacement.
Pulsed shortwave (radiofrequency) therapy is a possible method of pain control involving the application of electromagnetic energy (also termed pulsed electromagnetic fields). Food and Drug Administration-cleared devices have been in clinical use for over 70 years. For decades, available devices consisted of a large signal generator and bulky coil applicator that were not portable and produced significant electromagnetic interference, making them impractical for common use. However, small, lightweight, relatively inexpensive, noninvasive, Food and Drug Administration-cleared devices that function for 8 days are now available to treat acute and chronic pain, decrease inflammation and edema, and hasten wound healing and bone regeneration. Therefore, it has the potential to concurrently improve analgesia and decrease or even negate opioid requirements, only without the limitations of opioids and peripheral nerve blocks. The purpose of this study is to explore the possibility of treating acute postoperative pain with nonthermal, pulsed shortwave (radiofrequency) therapy, optimize the study protocol, and estimate the treatment effect.
Modern postoperative pain management aims to optimizing pain relief while minimizing opiate usage. While opiates are effective for pain relief, they result in common adverse effects such as nausea, constipation, and urinary retention, and most importantly present a long-term risk of abuse and dependency. Commonly used approaches include non-opiate pain medications such as acetominophen and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory agents, as well as regional nerve blocks such as epidurals. The transversus abdominis plane (TAP) block is a fascial plane block performed by injecting local anesthetic into the plane superficial to the transversus abdominis muscle where the anterior rami of the spinal nerves course to provide sensory innervation to the abdominal wall. The injections are generally placed either subcostally or at the midaxillary line bilaterally. The TAP block has been shown to be effective in reducing pain scores and opiate usage in some randomized studies but not others in patients undergoing various abdominal surgeries. There is great variation in method of administration, sites injected, and local anesthetics used, which may in part account for the heterogeneity of trial results.
