Filter by:The aim of the study is to investigate the effect of ski sport on physical performance, pain, and quality of life compared to sedentary individuals of similar age groups and to examine the existence of gender-specific differences.
The new competence of paramedics to administer opioid analgesics in acute trauma patients without presence or phone-call consult with an emergency medical doctor will be assessed in this study.
Primary dysmenorrhea (PD) is a pain that occurs in the menstrual period without pathological pelvic disorder. Excessive prostaglandin release causes uterine contraction and leads to uterine hypoxia and ischemia, which results in extreme abdominal cramps and pain. Music therapy is one of the complementary treatment methods in the management of pain for PD which is an intervention that is not expensive and has no side effects. Another complementary treatment method is for PD is chocolate. In the literature; there have a few studies about the effect of the music and dark chocolate on the primary dysmenorrhea but no studies have been conducted to evaluate the effects of the music and dark chocolate on PD. The following is the protocol for a randomized controlled clinical trial, where an experimental group 1 listened to a 30-minute song, an experimental group 2 ate dark chocolate and a control group had no intervention for the same time and conditions. The aim of this study is to determine the effect of dark chocolate and music on PD. This pain measured through a 10 cm Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) in nursing students from the Faculty of Health Sciences at the Manisa Celal Bayar University, Manisa, Turkey. Additionally, State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI) was used to assess the trait and state anxiety.
The aim of this randomized controlled study is to evaluate the effect of yoga practice on pain intensity, menstruation symptoms and quality of life in nursing students with primary dysmenorrhea. The hypothesis of this study is that yoga reduces pain and menstrual symptom severity and improves quality of life.
Pain is a sensation of discomfort, annoyance or distress, described as an unpleasant subjective sensory and emotional experience associated with actual or potential injury, and may associate vegetative, psychological, emotional, and behavioral responses. It is the main reason for medical consultation and in many cases it is assumed as inevitable. It is also a clinical symptom and generates negative consequences. As a result, people who suffer from "pain" may see their quality of life diminished. On many occasions, either due to the high healthcare burden, because pain is not the reason for consultation or because the main pathology suffered by the patient is not the cause of the pain, not attention is given to it. The objective of this study is to evaluate the prevalence of pain in the inpatient population, analyzing its presence and intensity in patients admitted to the Doctor Negrín University Hospital of Gran Canaria. Likewise, it is interesting to know what percentage of patients with pain have analgesics and the degree of relief with the treatment received. As a secondary objective, it is intended to establish whether there is a relationship between factors dependent on the patient and the presence of pain.
Skin breaking procedure through an automated heel lancet for blood draws is a common painful procedure in the Neonatal Intensive care unit (NICU). Recurrent pain in preterm neonates is associated with long-term complications. The primary objective of the study is to compare pain scores between two groups (24% sucrose and breast milk) during blood draw using an automated heel lancet in preterm neonates. The investigator conducted a prospective randomized controlled trial in preterm neonates, to compare the pain scores in infants receiving either breast milk or sucrose. Premature Infant pain profile- Revised pain profile is used to assign pain scores. The primary outcome measure is the comparison of pain scores between the two groups.
This study seeks to identify whether the addition of liposomal bupivacaine to regular bupivacaine and saline administered via surgical transversus abdominis plane (TAP) block will reduce the cumulative opioid dose in the first 48 hours after cesarean. 60 women scheduled for cesarean at Unity-Point Health Meriter Hospital in Madison, Wisconsin will be enrolled and can be expect to be on study for up to 6 weeks post-partum.
Opioids are morphine-type medicines which come from the opium poppy or are similar-to morphine. They are very effective for short-term pain, cancer pain, and pain at the end of life. Opioids are thought to be less useful for treating long-term non-cancer pain. Side effects are common and can be serious. People who take opioids for longer periods are at risk of tolerance (needing a higher dose to get the same effect), dependence (unable to cut down or stop without withdrawal effects), and addiction (uncontrollable use despite harmful consequences). In the UK, opioid prescribing has increased substantially over the last two decades. Doses are higher and opioids are taken for longer, suggesting many people are at risk of harmful effects without useful pain relief. Research into opioid dependence and addiction has found people do not always fully understand the risks of these medicines at the start of treatment. Local Community Pharmacists could be used to improve information and support for those prescribed opioids. This study aims to get a better understanding of the experiences of people prescribed opioids and their information and support needs, and to investigate whether information and support could be improved using Community Pharmacists. Findings may improve care for people prescribed opioids in the future. The study will involve questionnaires and interviews with adults prescribed an opioid medicine for pain, not caused by cancer, over a period of at least 3 months. Participants will be recruited from GP practices in England.
In this study the investigators aim to examine the effects of Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) on hippocampal network connectivity and pain levels in individuals with chronic low back pain.
The purpose of this randomised and controlled study is to investigate the effects of transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation combined with physiotherapy and rehabilitation program on pulmonary function and functional exercise capacity.
