Filter by:Total hip arthroplasty (THA) is a common surgical procedure aiming to improve mobility and quality of life in patients suffering from hip pain. Regional analgesia techniques are critical components of an optimal multimodal analgesia technique for THA, as they have been shown to improve pain relief as well as reduce opioid requirements. Ultrasound-guided suprainguinal fascia iliaca (SFI) block has been recommended as a reliable analgesic option for THA. However, SFI block may lead to decreased motor strength of the surgical limb thereby hindering postoperative mobilization. Recently, our group has developed a novel transmuscular quadratus lumborum and modified erector spinae plane (QLESP) block, which is characterized by simple operation, high efficiency, and wide dermatomal coverage of sensory block. In this randomized trial, we aimed to compare ultrasound-guided QLESP with SFI block as a component of non-opioid analgesic regimen in patients undergoing THA. The primary outcome of the study was postoperative sufentanil consumption within the initial 24-h postoperative period after THA. The secondary objectives were to compare pain scores, postoperative quadriceps strength, the time to first rescue analgesia, opioid-related adverse effects, time to ambulation, and the time to hospital discharge.
To compare patient pain perception and satisfaction as well as opioid-related side effects during inpatient and outpatient care when undergoing bariatric enhanced recovery after surgery protocols with and without methadone.
The purpose of this prospective randomized double-blinded and controlled study is to evaluate the quality of recovery after elective cesarean delivery using the Obstetric Quality-of-Recovery-11 (ObsQoR-11) score at 24 hours between patients receiving intrathecal morphine (ITM group) compared to patients receiving a ropivacaine continuous wound infusion (CWI group).
This double-blinded, placebo-control trial clinical trial aims to investigate the effect of IV oxytocin infusion on peri-operative opioid consumption following a minimally invasive hysterectomy under general anesthesia. The patient population will be women scheduled for an elective, minimally invasive hysterectomy at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center. The investigators hypothesize that, compared to a placebo, exposure to intravenous (IV) oxytocin will reduce the amount of opioid consumption for women after a minimally invasive hysterectomy procedure.
Tonsillectomy is commonly described as one of the most painful procedures that an adult can undergo. This study's aim is to evaluate if pre-operative oral hydration has an impact in reducing post-operative pain, nausea and vomiting, and opioid medication use after adult tonsillectomies. Participants will be randomized to a low, medium and high fluid intake groups and will record fluid intake on the day before surgery. After surgery, participants will record their pain and nausea at timepoints up to 7 days post-operative. Medication use will be recorded up to the first post-operative follow-up visit with their physician.
This will be a randomized comparison of pericapsular nerve group (PENG) blocks with bupivacaine and a placebo control (PENG blocks with normal saline). The overall objective of the proposed research is to determine the relative risks and benefits of a single-injection PENG block to provide postoperative analgesia following hip arthroscopy. Hypothesis 1: Following hip arthroscopy, participants with a PENG block will experience less pain in the recovery room compared with current standard-of-care as measured with the Numeric Rating Scale (NRS). Hypothesis 2: Following hip arthroscopy, participants with a PENG block will consume less opioid in the operating and recovery rooms compared with current standard-of-care as measured in oral morphine milligram equivalents. Primary end point: In order to claim that PENG blocks are superior to placebo overall, at least one of these two hypotheses must demonstrate PENG superiority while the other cannot demonstrate inferiority.
This study aims to determine if treatment with Carbidopa/Levodopa and Naproxen in females (biological sex) with acute pain after a bunionectomy or toe fusion (24hrs, 48hrs and 5 days) will reduce pain when compared with females receiving Placebo and Naproxen.
Open gynecologic surgery can be very painful. With the goal of minimizing the use of opioids (with undesired side effects and potential for abuse), the investigators often administer a type of peripheral nerve block in which the investigators put local anesthetic-or, numbing medicine-near the nerves that go to the surgical area which helps to numb the area and decrease pain following surgery. These blocks with a single-injection of local anesthetic are called erector spinae plane (ESP) blocks, and they are applied on each side of the body since each injection affects only that one side. However, the numbing medication typically lasts for only 16-20 hours. For other peripheral nerve blocks, this duration can be increased with the insertion of a catheter-a tiny tube smaller than a piece of spaghetti-followed by an infusion of additional local anesthetic. However, the effects of the various peripheral nerve blocks are determined by the anatomy and physiology of the specific peripheral nerve, with an infusion resulting in dramatic benefits for one nerve yet having no effect for another. The potential benefits and risks of adding a catheter and subsequent local anesthetic infusion to a single-injection ESP block remain unknown. The investigatorstherefore propose a randomized, triple-masked, placebo-controlled, split-body clinical trial to determine the potential benefits and risks of adding the infusion to single-injection ESP blocks.
Tonsillectomy is one of the most common surgeries performed in the United States, with over half a million performed annually in children younger than 15 years of age. Postoperative pain is one of the most common clinical problems and may lead to poor intake, dehydration, and weight loss. Management of postoperative pain is often challenging and results in additional medical costs due to unplanned emergency room visits. Opioids such as codeine are commonly prescribed for pain control, however in 2013 the Food & Drug Administration issued a black box warning for the use of codeine in post-tonsillectomy pediatric patients. The American Academy of Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery recommends the use of acetaminophen and ibuprofen to successfully manage postoperative pain. With an extended recovery period, often longer than 7 days, alternative measures to reduce postoperative pain are needed. Honey has been proven to possess antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties. This intervention will evaluate the effect of Tylenol, ibuprofen with honey on children's postoperative pain and nausea following tonsillectomy surgery.
The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of opioid-free anesthesia using dexmedetomidine and lidocaine instead of remifentanil infusion, on the acute postoperative pain after the gynecological laparoscopy
