Filter by:Objective: The aim of the study is to determine the effects of nasopharyngeal suction with negative and positive pressure on the pain level, respiratory parameters, and mucosal irritation in infants. Materials and Methods: This study was conducted as a posttest randomised controlled experimental research. The data were collected at XX Training and Research Hospital between January and November 2020. While the positive pressure suction method was applied to the experimental group, the negative pressure suction method was applied to the control group.
To investigate the extent to which pain, functionality, and quality of life change over the progression of osteoarthritis grades.
Pain after a cesarean section is of moderate to severe intensity. A Danish multicenter study from 2021 used an obstetric Quality of Recovery score 24 hours after the cesarean section and found that 45% of 861 patients had experienced very severe pain during recovery. This result was surprisingly high but also unspecific. Therefore, the investigators aim to investigate the intensity of pain experienced by patients at specific time intervals after the cesarean section e.g., every 6th hour. Additionally, the investigators will examine whether the pain has an impact on important functions for both the patients and the newborns, as well as assess the overall morphine consumption. All Danish regions have approved the REDCap database as a secure way to collect and store data. REDCap can also send encrypted links that can be converted into SMS messages sent to the participants' mobile phones at fixed intervals, allowing participants to enter data directly into the secure system. The investigators also aim to feasibility test the system. When a child is delivered by cesarean section, it is an expectation that the mother can take care of herself and the baby a few hours after the surgery. However, severe pain can hinder this. Therefore, it is important to investigate whether pain relief for our patients is sufficient. Based on response rates and the frequency of outcomes, data from this observational study can support the design of a future national multicenter randomized controlled trial (RCT) with a focus on postoperative pain intervention. The incidences of binary outcome measures and standard deviations of continuous outcome measures will support the sample size calculations for our RCT.
The aim of this study is to determine the effect of perineal massage and warm compress application at first and second stage of labor on perineal trauma, pain and delivery comfort.
Non-randomized study with control group (CG) with the objective of analyzing the non-pharmacological analgesic efficacy of the "Painless Vaccine" protocol for the reduction of pain during vaccination in the population aged 2 months to 14 years participating in the experimental group (EG) versus traditional vaccination (CG).
Acute postoperative pain is defined as sudden onset pain that develops after stimulation due to surgical intervention. It is most severe in the first 24 hours after surgery and gradually decreases in severity and creates dissatisfaction in the patient. Postoperative pain that cannot be treated properly can cause various systemic effects, prolongation of hospital stay, decrease in patients' quality of life, and development of chronic pain. An increase in blood pressure, heart rate, cardiac irritability and systemic vascular resistance is observed with the sympathetic response due to pain. Increased myocardial workload and oxygen consumption may increase or trigger myocardial ischemia. Pulmonary dysfunction has an important place in the determination of mortality and morbidity after surgery and anesthesia.Especially in patients who have undergone thoracic surgery, pain limits the movements of the thoracic muscles, reducing functional residual capacity and vital capacity.This causes the development of atelectasis in the patient and the development of hypoxia and pneumonia due to the deterioration of the ventilation/perfusion ratio. Effective analgesia can be achieved in the postoperative period by administering a certain volume of local anesthetic between any two muscle planes using USG. In SAPB, a local anesthetic is injected between the serratus anterior muscle and the latissimus dorsi muscle to create sensory paresthesia in the thoracic wall. It is known to reduce pain scores in the postoperative period. Serratus anterior plane block is a safe facial plane block performed under USG guidance.Depending on the application site of the block and the amount of local anesthetic administered, different numbers of intercostal nerves, long thoracic nerves and thoracodorsal nerves may be affected. The fact that Serratus anterior plane block (SAPB) is effective between T2-T9 dermatomes enables it to be used effectively in lateral thoracic wall surgeries.
End-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients are coming for Brachial vein transposition surgery. Patients were randomly allocated using sealed opaque envelope bearing A- (Injection bupivacaine (0.25%) 28 ml plus 2 ml. normal saline) and B-Injection bupivacaine (0.25%) 28 mL plus dexmedetomidine I ug/kg diluted to 2 ml). Supraclavicular block under ultrasound and nerve stimulator guidance was performed.
A randomized controlled trial (RCT) in healthy subjects will be conducted with the following aims: (1) Explore the effect of low pulmonary volume dynamic apnoea bouts on Pressure Pain Threshold (PPT) and conditioned pain modulation (CPM); (2) analyse whether CPM response correlates with apnoea induced hypoalgesia; (3) examine the association between apnoea bouts, Rate of Perceived Exertion, hypoxemia and Heart Rate changes in PPT.
Erector spinae plane (ESP) block is an interfacial plane block with visceral and somatic analgesic activity at paraspinal muscles. This study aims to examine the postoperative analgesic efficacy of ESP block in patients undergoing posterior spinal instrumentation
Distal radius fractures (DRF) are the most common upper extremity disorders encountered in clinical practice. With an understanding of the mechanics of distal radius fractures, surgical intervention, and bone healing, the therapist can modify the therapy program according to the patient's individual needs. The therapeutic process is begun in the crucial stage of bone healing during fracture immobilization. By addressing edema reduction and early range of motion of the uninvolved joints, most problems can be avoided before cast or fixator removal. Rehabilitation following the immobilization period should focus on regaining wrist movements provided that earlier problems have been addressed properly. During the rehabilitative process, the therapist can incorporate scar management, modalities, joint mobilization, active and passive range of motion, splinting, and strengthening to maximize the patient's functional result. Massage and mobilization techniques are used in the treatment of DRF due to their analgesic effects. The painless mobilization with movement technique (MWM, developed by Brian Mulligan) is a manual therapy method applies to correct the limitation of movement in the joint and to relieve pain and functional disorders. Many studies have shown that MWM technique provides faster and momentary painless joint movement compared to other physical therapy modalities. The patient group with DRF has a large place in the general population and long treatment processes cause both labour loss and economic loss. Therefore, this study aimed to examine the effectiveness of MWM technique in cases with distal radius fractures.
