Filter by:The German Network for acute pain management and Regional Anesthesia (NRA) is a multi-center, non-interventional registry and benchmark project, assessing and analysing clinical and patient-reported procedural and outcome data of systemic analgesia and regional anesthesia hosted by the German Society of Anesthesia and Intensive Care Medicine (DGAI) and professional Society German Anesthetists (BDA)
The purpose of this study is to realize a cartography of the allodynic and hypoasthetic territories associated with a neuropathic pain appearing in patients who underwent a Total Knee Arthroplasty (TKA)
This trial is a part of the project: 'A novel technique for reliable, precise and safe postoperative pain management' (project no. 65-2014-3). The purpose of the trial is to investigate the effects of changing peri-neural infusion rates of ropivacaine 0.2% on the duration of nerve block. Intervention: Two intervention-days. Each day a peri-neural infusion of a fixed volume of ropivacaine 0.2% is to be infused in one of five infusion rates, using a peri-neural catheter. Intervention day 1: Focus on the common peroneal nerve. Intervention day 2: Focus on the sciatic nerve.
This is a randomized noninferiority interventional study to determine the equivalence of two adductor canal block (ACB) methods: mid-thigh and distal thigh in patients undergoing medial foot, medial ankle, or medial leg surgery. Sixty eight patients will be identified during their orthopedic presurgical clinic visit, anesthesia preoperative clinic visit or Day Surgery Unit (Zale Lipshy Hospital, Clements University Hospital, and University of Texas Southwestern Outpatient Surgery Center) for eligibility. Eligible individuals may be introduced to the study in the orthopedic presurgical clinic or the anesthesia preoperative clinic by staff. After consent patients will be randomized (break-seal method) to receive either a mid-thigh or distal thigh block using ropivacaine prior to foot, ankle, or leg surgery. The following measurements will be obtained to determine the change in sensory distribution: pinprick test with Neuropen, maximum voluntary isometric contraction before and after block, postoperative pain scores (24 hrs and at discharge) and postoperative opiate consumption.
Total shoulder replacement is associated with considerable postoperative pain. A common method to treat and prevent this post operative pain is to place a catheter in the neck and leave it in place for up to 48 hours. The catheter delivers a medication called ropivacaine directly to a major nerve near your shoulder. It is very effective at stopping pain. In addition to preventing pain, it also prevents movement of the arm because it blocks the nerve completely. A newer method of treating post operative pain uses only a series of small injections into the joint, skin, and muscles of the shoulder near the end of the surgery. This medication, liposomal bupivacaine (Exparel), potentially provides analgesia for greater than 48 hrs but does not require a catheter to remain in place and does not prevent patients from moving their arm after surgery because it only blocks the pain portion of the nerve. Both methods also frequently include the addition of oral and injected pain medicines like narcotics to effectively control the pain. Ropivacaine and Exparel both work well for postoperative pain after total shoulder replacement. It is not known, however, if one method is superior in its ability to treat/prevent pain or which method may have fewer side effects. The purpose of this study is to randomly assign patients to receive either a catheter with ropivicaine or Exparel injections to help determine if one method is superior in pain relief and if either method has fewer side effects.
The patients scheduled for laparoscopic cholecystectomy will be allocated to 3 groups. Group A and B patients will listen to a positive message under general anesthesia. Group C patients will not listen to the message. The postoperative pain, analgesic consumption and frequency of nausea, vomiting and emergence agitation episodes will be documented and compared between the 3 groups.
The purpose of this study is to determine if methadone improves postoperative pain control in pediatric patient's undergoing cardiac surgery.
The purpose of this study is to compare intravenous (IV) and oral acetaminophen for the treatment of acute moderate to severe pain in combination with standard patient-controlled analgesia (PCA) in adult subjects following total knee replacement.
The purpose of this study is to compare infraclavicular brachial plexus shot single shot block to continuous catheter nerve block done in adult patients who have under gone surgery to repair distal radius fractures. Visual analogue scores, opioid consumption, quality of recovery and quality of sleep up to 72 hours post operatively will be used for comparison.
In many countries, caesarean section (CS) rates have been increasing. The international literature is unclear regarding the analgesic efficacy of the transversus abdominis plane block (TAPB) after a CS. In particular, no clinical trials exist in which the correct method of performing this block has been matched with the obtained analgesic effect after a CS. The primary goal of the study was to determine whether a correctly performed ultrasound-guided TAPB (USG-TAPB) could provide patients who underwent a CS with better control of acute postoperative pain during the first 72 hours after surgery
