Rectus sheath block is effective in reducing pain in the peri-umbilical region, and the use of ultrasonography is recommended to perform the block at the precise location. Recently, intra-operative rectus sheath block has also been introduced without the aid of ultrasonography. However, no study has not yet compared the analgesic effects of these two different approaches (ultrasonography-guided vs direct surgical). Thus, the aim of our study is to compare the effect of ultrasonography-guided and direct-surgical rectus sheath block after single-port access laparoscopy in benign ovary cyst patients.
The purpose of this study is to test whether a dose of paracetamol given before surgical incision is more effective at reducing postoperative pain and analgesic consumption in cervical spine surgery versus a dose given at the end of surgery.
Persistent pain after breast cancer surgery (PPBCS) affects 25-60% of breast cancer survivors and nerve damage has been implicated as the cause of this neuropathic pain condition. Local anaesthetic blockade of tenderpoints and the intercostobrachial nerve (ICBN) could provide clues to pathophysiological mechanisms as well as aiding diagnosis and treatment of PPBCS but has never been attempted. The aims of this study is to examine clinical effect of ultrasound guided blockades of the ICBN and tenderpoints of pain.
Prolonged labour can lead to increased maternal and neonatal mortality and morbidity due to increased risks of maternal exhaustion, postpartum haemorrhage and sepsis, fetal distress and asphyxia and requires early detection and appropriate clinical response. The risks for complications of prolonged labour are much greater in poor resource settings. Active management of labour versus physiological, expectant management, has shown to decrease the occurrence of prolonged labour. Administering sedatives during labour could also lead to faster and more effective dilatation of the cervix. Interventions to shorten labour, such as sedatives, can be used as a preventative or a treatment strategy in order to decrease the incidence of prolonged labour. As the evidence to support this is still largely anecdotal around the world. (Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews 2013,CD009243.pub3.; Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews 2012, CD009223.pub2.) Hypothesis: Diazepam reduced the duration of labor and the severity of pain in labor.
To compare the cuff pressure in lateral position between barrel-shaped cuff and taper-shaped cuff
NMDA receptor is administered and postoperative remote hyperalgesia is investigated.
Although opioid rotation is well known treatment modality in reducing pain and opioid-induced neurotoxicity, it is not established whether opioid rotation is more appropriate or opioid escalation is more effective in controlling significant pain in cancer patients under opioid medication. - The purpose of this study is to determine effective therapy out of opioid rotation and opioid dose escalation in patients with moderate to severe cancer pain who have been already treated with strong opioid.
The main hypothesis is that performance of electroacupuncture before colonoscopy reduces pain during the exam.
To compare between the efficacy of Paracetamol IV vs. Lornoxicam IV in pain relief following surgical abortion. The medication will be given at the time of the procedure. Following the abortion, pain level will be evaluated.
