Filter by:This research was planned as a randomized controlled experimental study in order to evaluate the effect of virtual reality application on pain and anxiety caused by the procedure during stone crushing process (ESWL) with shock waves.
The objective of this study is to explore the perception of pain during intravitreal injection related to the distance of the entry site from the limbus.
Pain in physically disabled athletes affects the sporting career directly or indirectly through psychological consequences. Numerous studies address psychological skills in able-bodied athletes and in able-bodied athletes they are scarce.This information is part of a research project aimed at finding resources to help athletes in their pain management.
PROMs questionnaires seem to be an effective tool to obtain a greater knowledge of the physical and emotional state of patients. Despite this, few studies have been performed using patient reported outcomes in Head & Neck (H&N) cancer patients during and after treatment. The use of a novel topical mucosa composition (Saliactive®) is studied along the use of questionnaires.
In recent years, the use of regional anesthesia techniques as part of multimodal analgesia strategies to maximize pain control in patients has reduced opioid requirements and promoted early mobility and rehabilitation in the perioperative period. Regional anesthesia has benefits, mainly peripheral nerve blocks (PNB), muscle relaxation, and postoperative analgesia, thus allowing for control of postoperative pain and early discharge from the hospital. In addition, using PNB techniques provides: Hemodynamic stability. Reduced need for a post-anesthetic care unit (PACU). Reduced unplanned hospitalization for pain control. Less airway management. Reduced incidence of opioid-related adverse events. Greater patient satisfaction The main feature of rebound pain is that it is severe pain, within 8-24 hours after PNB. It usually remains severe for 2-6 hours, but the subsequent pain trajectory is consistent with the recovery process expected at surgical intervention. Therefore, rebound pain is temporary and different from persistent post-surgical pain (PPSP). Rebound pain often occurs at night. However, this is probably related to the 8 to 12-hour duration of most single-injection PNBs and the completion of most elective surgeries during daylight hours.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the pharmacokinetics and safety of VX-548 and its metabolite in the absence and presence of omeprazole or rifampin, in healthy participants.
This project a single-site 3-arm parallel group randomized clinical trial conducted at a tertiary level 1 trauma center among patients undergoing operative fixation of a lower extremity fracture.
Anxiety feeds the avoidance of dental treatments, leading to the neglect of general oral health. This avoidance is often amplified by the fear of potential pain and dissatisfaction after a dental appointment. A music listening intervention could be beneficial to reduce anxiety, pain and dissatisfaction. This intervention has the advantage to be non-invasive, cheap, and easy to implement in clinical settings. The objective of this study is to explore the effects of a personalised musical intervention on anxiety, pain and dissatisfaction associated with an autogenous gingival graft in comparison to the use of an audiobook (control). In this regard, three groups of patients will receive the gingival graft along with the personalized music intervention (n=20), an audiobook (n=20) or standard care (n=20). Participants will be distributed randomly between conditions in a single blind design (surgeons will be unaware of the condition). However, since the third standard care control group was added as of 07-01-2023, all recruited participants will be enrolled in the standard care control group (non-randomized). Self-reported measures of anxiety, pain, and dissatisfaction will be taken at different times (baseline, preoperative, postoperative, and follow-up).
The main purposes of this study are to (1) measure the effect of CBD on pain symptoms, pain intensity, pain unpleasantness, and skin sensitivity to hot and cold temperature; and (2) measure the effect of CBD on brain electrical activity with electroencephalography (EEG).
The goal of this clinical trial is to study the effects of Immersive Virtual Reality in patients with cancer undergoing chemotherapy. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Could the immersive virtual reality application prevents or reduces anxiety, prevents or reduces fatigue, prevents or reduces pain, improves therapeutic adherence, prevents or reduces adverse events, then cancer patients treated with narrative medicine, and then cancer patients in standard care only? - Could the immersive virtual reality application show symptoms of cybersickness? Participants will be randomly allocated with balanced allocation ratio 1: 1: 1 into three groups: 1) Virtual Reality group; 2) Narrative medicine group; 3) Standard care group. In the virtual reality arm, patients will use a Virtual Reality headset. The multimedia contents in VR, will have a video quality from 4K to 8K, 360 degrees, and High Definition audio stereo. In control arm, patients will be free to choose different activities during the infusion of chemotherapy, such as conversation with nurses, doctors, trainees, reading, writing, watching television, listening to music or videos on their smartphone. In narrative medicine arm, patients will express their subjective experience regarding to the chemotherapy through writing. The experience will be written in free form by the patient and will cover both the cognitive, emotional and perceptual aspects. A nurse will always be available to guide the patient in the activity of expressing cognitive, emotional and perceptual contents. Researchers will compare the Virtual Reality group, Narrative Medicine group, Standard care group, to see the effects regarding to anxiety, fatigue, pain, improves therapeutic adherence and adverse events.
