Filter by:Perioperative pain is one of the most significant complaints and problems for patients undergoing major open surgery. Pain after surgery carry an abundance of consequences such as reduced mobilization, reduced nutrition intake, reduced pulmonary capacity and increased risk of complications and length of hospitalization. The literature does not supply much information on short- or longer-term outcomes of pain treatment for emergency surgery. The investigators know that for planned surgery in general around 10-50 percentage suffer from persistent postoperative pain. It is therefore important to follow-up on the longer-term outcomes after the standardized analgesic pain treatment. Based on a predefined patient group called OMEGA (Optimizing Major EMergency Abdominal surgery) the investigators hypothesize that OMEGA patients will present a significant incidence rate of patients with persistent postoperative pain and/or continued opioid/non-opioid usage. Therefore this study is to investigate the incidence of prolonged postoperative pain and opioid/non-opioid consumption in OMEGA patients at 3 month after major emergency abdominal surgery.
Pediatric spinal fusion (PSF) surgery is a painful procedure that can treat adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS). One technique that can potentially reduce patients' pain levels and need for opioid medication is the ultrasound-guided Erector Spinae Plane Block (ESPB). The ESP block is a technique that involves injecting an anesthetic medication into the muscles of the lower back on both sides of the spine. Previous studies have shown that ESPB application led to a reduction in opioid use, and there is one pediatric case report of ESPB use in two patients undergoing PSF. However, there is still lack of evidence that the ESPB technique is feasible and effective in the pediatric patient population. The present study is designed to be the first randomized controlled trial to evaluate the role of ESPB in pediatric spinal fusion surgery and the role of ESPB within an enhanced recovery pathway.
This study will assess the control of inflammation at days 1, 7, 14, and 21 days following the vitreoretinal surgical procedure analyzing two randomized study arms: Intracanalicular dexamethasone insert group or topical steroid drop group. Patients must be 18 years of age and older, of any race and either sex, requiring surgery with the procedure type of pars plana vitrectomy for either the indication of macular hole, epiretinal membrane removal, or vitreomacular traction.
Impact of 2.5mg of oral Dronabinol daily versus placebo on post-operative opioid consumption on patients aged 18 to 65 years old undergoing 1 to 3 level posterolateral fusion
A prospective, double blinded, single center, randomized controlled study to evaluate the efficacy of caffeine in combination with acetyl salicylic acid (ASA) in the management of postoperative pain in patients undergoing total joint arthroplasty.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of a post-operative opioid pain 18 management protocol for anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR).
The purpose of this study is to determine if the addition of bupivacaine HCl injections will improve pain control after skin surgery. This is a randomized clinical trial. Approximately 100 participants will be randomized to receive either bupivacaine HCl or saline injections to help with the postsurgical pain. Patients will be provided with a take-home journal to complete indicating when and how much pain medication they required for the 3 days immediately following surgery. Participants will return the journal in-person at a follow up visit 7-21 days post-op. This study was a pilot study designed to determine the feasibility of this procedure. Subjects currently living in the Chicago metropolitan area and meet inclusion/exclusion criteria will be invited and considered for enrollment.
Purpose of this study is to clinically evaluate and compare various patient centered outcomes using diode LASER in Continuous mode (CW) and Pulsed Mode (PM) using 300µm and 400µm fiber for depigmentation procedure.
Aim to compare acute pain rate after single-visit ortwo-visits treatment of teeth with necrotic pulp and apical periodontitis .90 teeth with a diagnosis of pulp necrosis and apical radiolucency at the apex.Working length was established with EAL and confirmed radiographically. Flex-R files were used to complete canal preparation. Level ofdiscomfort were recorded and cases with acute postoperative pain.
Auricular pressure is effective for postoperative analgesia after hemorrhoidectomy, but the evidence is not sufficient.
