Filter by:Hypothesis: Lidocaine-Prilocaine Combination is as effective as Vapocoolant in treating IV cannulation pain in the emergency department.
Virtual Reality (VR) is technology that simulates an immersive 3 dimensional environment for the user and is often used for immersive gaming experiences. The investigators will use VR in children who undergo painful procedures such as blood sampling and cannulation to investigate if VR reduces pain. The study will be carried out in 32 children admitted to the Royal Manchester Children in the UK and will assess feasbility of use VR, child and parent reported pain and therefore generate pilot data. This data will be used to design larger randomised control studies.
We aim to study the use of a virtual reality device (VRD) in addition to our standardized analgesic care protocol for abdominal bedside VAC dressing change and we hypothesize to decrease pain and anxiety and to increase patients' comfort by this intervention.
Investigating the use of a Virtual Reality (VR) pain neuroscience education (PNE) platform with middle school students. The investigators have previously studied the use of PNE with in person educational sessions with middle school kids and video recorded sessions. This study will be looking into utilizing the VR platform for delivery of the educational information.
Transrectal ultrasound (TRUS) guided prostate biopsy is a gold standard method widely used in the diagnosis of prostate cancer. This procedure can be very painful and anxious for men. Various pharmacological methods can be used to relieve patients' pain and discomfort during TRUS-guided prostate biopsy. Although there is still no consensus on the solution suggestions for pain and anxiety due to biopsy, it is known that music, which is a non-pharmacological method, is effective in this regard. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of music with structured verbal training on patients' pain, anxiety and satisfaction levels during transrectal ultrasound-guided prostate biopsy.
This is a post-market, open-label, prospective, multi-center, observational study evaluating upper limb pain relief with the DTM™ SCS programming approach. Data at follow-up visits will be compared to baseline assessments collected at the beginning of the study.
In patients under standardized steady-state general anesthesia, 6 tetanic stimulations of incremental intensities were applied to the patients. Pupillary dilation in response to these stimulations was recorded.
Aim: The aim of the study is to determine the effect of non-nutritive sucking on pain during examination for retinopathy of prematurity. Method: The study is conducted as a randomized controlled trial. The population of the study is premature newborn who treatment in a neonatal intensive unit. The premature newborns divided into two groups as an intervention and control group according to randomization. After the randomization, non-nutritive sucking is applied to the intervention group. No method is applied to the control group.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Outpatient surgery (day case surgery) is increasing. When the patients go home on the same day, this demands safe pain relief. A reduction of morphine (opioid) use is sought because of side effects and the dependency risk. An effective alternative to opioids is ketamine, which lacks the side effects of opioids but provides powerful analgesic effects. METHOD At the start of surgery, Ketamine or placebo will be given in a vein to evaluate if the acute pain decreases significantly. Inflammation is known to cause pain. By measuring different proteins in the blood, the investigators want to understand how inflammation links to the pain. Wisdom tooth surgery provides significant post-operative pain and is a widely accepted pain model in drug studies. Patients referred for wisdom tooth surgery are asked to participate in the study. For statistical certainty, in total 165 persons will be enrolled to three groups. Two with active drug (different dose) and one placebo. Everyone gets local anesthesia. The completion of the study will be done in four years. The Ethics Review Board has approved the study. CLINICAL RELEVANCE Effective pain relief after daily surgical procedures is important for patient´s safety and reducing the risk of long-term pain. It is also ethically necessary for the continued expansion of day case surgery. New knowledge of the mechanisms of pain increases the opportunities for individual and safe pain relief. Day case surgery is performed in all operating specialties, this might affects many patients nationally and internationally.
The aim of this study compares mirror therapy and visual feedback treatment with the control group in frozen shoulder patients.
