Filter by:Investigate the prevalence of PADIS in EICU, as well as the awareness and clinical implementation status of medical staff towards PADIS. The investigators conducted a multicenter cross-sectional survey in mainland China, including a one-day point prevalence investigation and a questionnaire survey. The inclusion criteria encompassed all adult patients admitted to the participating emergency department intensive care units (EDICUs) during the on-site screening, while exclusion criteria comprised patients aged less than 18 years, EDICU stays duration less than 24 hours before the screening, and participation in other concurrent trials. Hospital and nursing records from the 24 hours preceding enrollment were examined to document the assessment rate of pain, agitation-sedation, and delirium. Physicians and nurses on duty 24 hours before the patients' enrollment was invited to complete the questionnaire survey regarding the ICU profiles, professional expertise, assessment and treatment of PAD, early mobilization, and sleep improvement practices.
The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of adding omega 3 and dipeptiven to standard feeding in head and neck patients who will undergo oral cavity tumour resection or mandibular tumour resection (immunonutrrition mixture) on wound infection, fistula formation and length of hospital stay ,total dose of intraoperative and postoperative opioids (opioid consumption and pain incidence ,mortality and other postoperative complications as urinary tract infection (UTI) and pneumonia.
The aim of this study is to compare leukocyte and platelet-rich fibrin (L-PRF) and photobiomodulation (PBM) applications, which have been repeatedly reported to be superior to control groups, in terms of pain, soft tissue and bone healing in tooth extraction sockets.
The objective of this randomized, multicenter, open-label, parallel, controlled clinical trial is to evaluate pain reduction during the administration of two vaccines in children aged 3 and 6 years through virtual reality. The main question[s] it aims to answer are: 1. To evaluate the reduction in pain during the administration of two vaccines in children aged 3 and 6 years. 2. To evaluate the reduction in anxiety during and after the administration of two vaccines in children aged 3 and 6 years. 3. Improve the satisfaction of parents or legal guardians after the administration of two vaccines in children aged 3 and 6 years. 4. Evaluate the Safety of the use of virtual reality glasses in children aged 3 and 6 years during the administration of vaccines. The study population will include children aged 3 and 6 years who are included in the patient registry and are being seen in a primary care center of the Catalan Institute of Health in Central Catalonia. The clinical trial has two assigned groups: a control group and an intervention group. The intervention group will use the Pico G2 VR goggles (Pico Interactive Inc) during the administration of the two vaccines, together with an Android AOYODKG tablet, which will be connected to the goggles as a controller. The control group participants will receive traditional distractors, such as being held by the parent or guardian who accompanies them to the appointment, receiving stickers at the end of the appointment, or receiving rewards that the parent or guardian has prepared from home.

A variety of biomechanical gait modification interventions can elevate knee loading and improve knee symptoms in knee osteoarthritis patients. However, there was a lack of acceptability and adherence regarding modification interventions without any explanation. Thus, this study investigates the feasibility and acceptability of foot insoles as a gait modification tool among Saudi Arabian knee osteoarthritis patients and physiotherapists. This study aims to answer the following: - Which gait modification intervention is most likely to be implemented in Saudi Arabia (SA) clinical practice, taking context, patients' clinical and research evidence into consideration? - In Saudi Arabia, can this proposed foot-insole intervention be implemented? Is there sufficient experience among physiotherapists regarding gait modification to deliver it, and will patients engage with it? How can KOA rehabilitation outcomes be evaluated in the future? The participants will be conducted over three phases: 1. The patients' interview and therapists' focus group discussion will be used to examine KOA patients' and clinicians' perspectives on enabling and accepting gait modifications in phase 1. 2. The feasibility study will explore how a small number of KOA patients tolerate gait modifications and consider the most relevant outcome measures, such as pain and function, in phase (2). 3. A small group of knee osteoarthritis patients and their physiotherapists who participated in phase (2) will be asked to participate in a descriptive survey in phase (3). To examine the acceptability and feasibility of the study intervention in phase (2).
The study included women who were scheduled for an elective or had an emergency cesarean section. Age, body mass index (BMI), obstetric history, education status, smoking status and C-section indications of the patients were recorded. Patients with a previous suprapubic scar, medical conditions affecting wound healing (such as diabetes or chronic corticosteroid use), those needing a vertical incision (e.g., placenta previa), individuals with postoperative wound infection or under 18 years old were excluded. Data were collected in standardized data form by a research assistant. Pre- and post-surgery treatments and/or interventions were standardized. All patients received antimicrobial prophylaxis with cefazolin before the operation. The abdomen was entered via a transverse suprapubic skin incision and the surgical steps up to the point of facia closure were accomplished in a standard fashion. Technical differences such as blunt and sharp dissection, uterus exteriorization vs in situ, or parietal peritoneum closure were left to the surgeon's discretion. The procedures for facia closure are as follows; in Group I (Double knots group), the edge of the fascia was determined with a Kocher clamp. The fascia was closed starting from the opposite side with a synthetic absorbable multifilament suture in a continuous fashion up to the Kocher clamp and tied the knots with the same single suture (Figure 2; a-b). In Group II (Triple knots group), the edge of the fascia was fixed with the same suture material instead of the Kocher clamp, and the fascia was closed similarly, starting from the opposite corner via the second loop. Then the loops from the first suture were tied to the second suture (Figure 2; c-d). After the incision was irrigated with sterile saline solution, the subcutaneous space was closed if the thickness was 2 cm or more. Skin closure was accomplished with a subcuticular technique using a non-absorbable monofilament suture, which was removed on the 10th day postoperatively. A closed subcutaneous suction drain was not used in any of the patients. Postoperative pain at and around the incision line was measured on the 1st, and 10th days postoperatively on the NRS (Numeric Rating Scale), with "0" being "no pain" and "10" being "the worst pain imaginable." The 1st measurements were made face-to-face, and the 10th-day evaluation was made via telephone interviews by the same research assistant.
The goal of this split-mouth randomized clinical trial study was to investigate the effect of using a laser on pain and discomfort following flapless dental implant surgery. It was hypothesized that laser did not have any impact on post-op pain. Therefore, the study aimed to compare pain and discomfort following flapless dental implant surgeries with or without a laser.
This is a single-site, two-arm, parallel-group randomized clinical trial (RCT). The clinical effects of a 4-minute audio-recorded cyclical sighing intervention for orthopedic patients will be investigated relative to a 4-minute audio-recoding about pain psychoeducation.
Orthodontic treatment can cause pain. Research studies have shown that light therapy can help reduce pain that is caused by orthodontic treatment. In this study, data was collected from the medical charts of patients who had orthodontic treatment and recorded their pain levels for 1 week at the beginning of orthodontic treatment while they used a light therapy device or did not use at device. This collected information was used to see if the light therapy device could lessen orthodontic pain.
The goal of this study is to investigate a novel neuromodulatory approach utilizing visual stimulation to impact pain perception in healthy participants.
