Filter by:To develop and refine a technology based treatment protocol for preoperative education and training and postoperative care in children and adolescents undergoing surgery.
The purpose of this study is to compare the analgesic effect of ultrasound-guided quadratus lumborum block and iliohypogastric/ilioinguinal nerve block for postoperative pain management in patients undergoing cesarean section.
Chronic postsurgical pain had number of prevalence on 20%. Its derivates from risk factors, but recent research provide new potential risk factors to develop chronic postsurgical pediatric pain. To increase the body of knowledge, an observational study is proposed in pediatric patients undergoing surgical intervention.
To compare the analgesic efficacy of dexmedetomidine and magnesium sulphate as adjuvants to levobupivacaine in erector spinae plane block in modified radical mastectomy surgery for acute and chronic pain management.
Various methods are used to control post-operative pain among children. Amongst these methods, caudal block is one of the most favoured, prominent and dependable methods for providing reliable analgesia in surgeries below umbilicus. This study is to compare two doses of Dexmedetomidine added as adjunct to local anaesthesia using reduced dose in caudal block for prolonging the duration of analgesia. Our secondary outcomes will include blood pressure, heart rate, urinary retention, nausea and vomiting in the paediatric population.
As the opioid epidemic continues on, more research is needed on multi-modal approaches to decrease opioid exposure after common procedures. The aim of this study is to investigate the role of a transverses abdominis block using liposome bupivacaine suspension in reducing use of opioid medications through post-operative day 7. The study is a proposed double-blind, randomized controlled trial.
Tranexamic acid has seen an increase in use over the past decade in hip and knee arthroplasty as well as spine surgery with more recent use seen in total shoulder arthroplasty (TSA). The mechanism of action of TXA is as a lysine analogue that competitively inhibits the conversion of plasminogen to plasmin thus resulting in its antifibrinolytic activity. Investigators have showed that compared with placebo TXA had a statistically significant effect on blood and postoperative hemoglobin levels in TSA. To date there are no studies investigating the effect of TXA in arthroscopy of any kind or studies examining the ability of TXA to aid in surgeon visualization in arthroscopic procedures. The investigators of this study will use change in pump pressure as a surrogate objective measure for surgeon visualization. The hypothesis is that participants who receive TXA will have a lower change in pump pressure compared to participants who do not receive TXA.
This is a prospective, randomized controlled trial of all patients undergoing femoral revision at Thomas Jefferson University Hospital and Rothman Institute undergoing femoral revision surgery with the use of a modern titanium, fluted, tapered stem. At the time of surgery, patients will be randomized to six weeks of toe-touch weight bearing or immediate weight bearing as tolerated
Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is one the most common surgical treatments performed for end stage degenerative arthritis of the knee. More than 700,000 procedures are currently performed yearly in the United States. This procedure usually results in moderate-to-severe pain in the immediate post-operative period. Optimal pain control may allow early mobilization, accelerate rehabilitation, improve patient satisfaction, decrease length-of-stay, and optimize functional outcomes. The challenge, however, is to manage pain with alternative methods, reducing the role of opiate medications, which are highly addictive with myriad side effects. In this prospective randomized double-blinded controlled study, the investigators aim to evaluate the benefits of an over-the-counter (OTC) transdermal CBD preparation in patients undergoing primary total knee arthroplasty as a novel adjunct to the standard multi-modal analgesic regimen, to reduce postoperative pain and reduce the need for opiates after total knee arthroplasty.
This is a prospective, cluster-randomized, two-arm, comparative study aimed at determining whether addition of tizanidine ( an oral muscle relaxant) to a multimodal pain regimen following primary TKA reduces opioid consumption.
