Filter by:Cannabis use increased 10 fold among adults over the age of 65 between 2014 and 2016 but very little data exists on the extent of their harmful effects on health and behavior. The overarching goal of this project is to test a novel harm reduction strategy in which older individuals who seek to use cannabis for pain, anxiety or mood problems (depression/anxiety) will be randomly assigned to one of three conditions in an 8 week randomized controlled trial: hemp-derived CBD+THC, hemp-derived CBD-THC, or placebo. This work has the ability to directly inform individual choices regarding the use of cannabis products among older adults, and direct policy decisions regulating cannabis formulations on the legal market.
A multi-center clinical longitudinal study of neuropathic pain by collecting data on patients' brain physiology and cognitive function
A prospective, single blind, randomized, parallel controlled trial was conducted to evaluate the analgesic effect and safety of MR based "cognitive distraction focus relaxation therapy" in patients clinically diagnosed with chronic moderate to severe pain
Purpose: To evaluate the effectiveness and safety of virtual reality (VR) technology in alleviating pain during colonoscopy. Design and Methods: In the context of a single-centered, prospective, randomized controlled study, the pain levels experienced during colonoscopy are compared between the VR group and the control group.
Music has been proven to be beneficial in postoperative care by reducing pain. The effects of music listening to reduce pain postoperatively are well studied among cases undergoing elective orthopaedic surgery. No study has been conducted focusing on pain control among cases with fragility hip fractures in an acute ward setting with non-schedule non-elective orthopaedic operation. In Queen Elizabeth Hospital a standardized analgesic protocol is used for all fragility hip fracture cases unless contraindicated, a suboptimal post-operative pain control is not uncommonly seen. Stepping up analgesics is usually a concern in the elderly with a higher rate of side effects, a safe and simple non-pharmacological intervention for pain control is therefore needed. The aim of this study is to study the effectiveness of incorporating music on pain intensity and mobility with the standard postoperative rehabilitation care of fragility hip fracture in Queen Elizabeth Hospital.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of epidural oxycodone for pain management after lower limb amputation.
Opioid misuse and addiction among children and adolescents is an increasingly concerning problem. Post-surgical opioid prescriptions for commonly performed surgeries such as anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) increase opioid exposure in young athletes. The purpose of the current study is to determine if extended-release Bupivacaine Liposome Injectable Suspension (Exparel) is effective in decreasing at home narcotic consumption compared to standard Bupivacaine Adductor Canal Block for Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) reconstruction/reconstruction for the surgical treatment of adolescents with ACL tears and concomitant pathology i.e. meniscus / cartilage injury/tear.
Distal radius fractures are the most common fractures when looking at upper extremity fractures. The incidence of distal radius fractures is increasing day by day, and when looking at the databases of various countries, its annual prevalence reaches 70,000 in the UK and 640,000 in the USA. Most of these fractures are related to osteoporosis and require appropriate treatment. If not, it causes loss of work force, permanent disability, and limitation in daily activities. Fluidotherapy has also proven to be effective in reducing hand edema in patients with carpal tunnel syndrome and stroke, examining its effect on nerve conduction velocities, and warming hypothermic patients. Compared to these treatment methods, fluid therapy reduces both joint capsule and muscle temperature by 9°C and 5.7°C, respectively. has been reported to increase.
One of the main challenges facing the therapist in the treatment of adhesive capsulitis is to motivate the patient throughout conventional therapy. As noted in a recent review, individuals are more interested in leisure activities rather than performing repetitive tasks during therapy. Virtual reality (VR) is a three-dimensional computer-aided programme built with a system that creates virtual reality movements and generates a high amount of visual and sensory feedback during exercise. As a result, virtual reality (VR) has been used in many medical indications and has been shown to promote adherence to treatment by increasing patient motivation.
Suprascapular nerve block is an injection method that has been shown to be effective in shoulder rehabilitation in diseases such as adhesive capsulitis and stroke .. Applying the block under USG guidance instead of blinding increases the effectiveness and reduces complications.
