Filter by:Fractures in and around the hip are quite common irrespective of both the young and elderly population groups and are associated with extreme pain.The anterior hip capsule is innervated by articular branches of femoral nerve, obturator nerve and accessory obturator nerve (AON) as reported by previous anatomic studies, suggesting that these nerves should be the main targets for hip analgesia, which can be blocked by Peri-capsular nerve group (PENG).
This explorative post hoc analysis included patients randomized in the DEX-2-TKA trial (NCT03506789) who were operated under general anesthesia with remifentanil and propofol. Patients having general anesthesia with sevoflurane were excluded. As the two groups receiving preoperative dexamethasone were identical at the time of outcome assessment, they were merged to one and were compared with placebo.
Postoperative abdominal and shoulder pain that are experienced in patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) is significant. Although it is generally less sever than post open cholecystectomy pain, it still causes an avoidable distress in the first 24 hours postoperatively
Surgical procedures on the spine and spinal cord are common and are performed for a wide variety of diseases. They range from minimally invasive, single-level decompression to highly complex, multi-stage extensive reconstruction. Operative procedures for degenerative spine diseases and herniated discs are most common in those under 60 years of age. While those over 60 years of age most commonly undergo spine surgery for spinal stenosis Patients undergoing spine surgery experience severe pain in the postoperative period. Recent studies show that the incidence of acute postoperative pain following spine surgery vary from 30 to 64%. Postoperative pain may also increase morbidity and incidence of complications and prolong postoperative rehabilitation. In addition, it is a risk factor for development of chronic pain syndromes Postoperative pain is usually treated with oral or intravenous opioids in combination with non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. However, they often results in insufficient pain control and side effects such as respiratory depression, nausea, and vomiting. Epidural anaesthesia and analgesia have been shown to be superior to intravenous analgesia. The former is better with respect to pain quality, incidence of side effects, pulmonary, cardiac, and gastrointestinal dysfunction. However, it may be associated with hemodynamic instability. Migration of the epidural catheter with unpredictable absorption of the local anaesthetics remains a challenge to the anaesthetists. The Erector Spinae block proved to be efficient in controlling post-operative pain. It is a simple interfascial plane block, published in 2016. It provides effective analgesia for 24 hours in patients undergoing lumbar spine surgery. Therefore, a prospective, randomized study was designed to compare the analgesic and side effects of the epidural analgesia with the Erector Spinae block in patients undergoing lumbar spine surgery. To our knowledge, this is the first clinical trial that compares the Erector Spinae block with the epidural analgesia in a variety of lumbar spine surgeries.
Acupuncture has been shown in several meta-analyses and clinical studies, in different surgical settings and chronic back pain, to be a safe adjuvant option for postoperative pain treatment. In this study, the investigator hypothesize that acupuncture can decrease postoperative pain intensity and amount of given analgesics, and accelerate recovery of bowel motility, in patients after open radical prostatectomy. The investigator will also investigate whether or not acupuncture with needle skin penetration is more efficacious than acupressure.
Adenosine A1 and A2 receptors are widely distributed in the brain and spinal cord and represent a non-opiate target for pain management. Activated spinal A1 receptors inhibit sensory transmission by inhibiting the slow ventral root potential, which is the C-fiber-evoked excitatory response associated with nociception. Adenosine may inhibit intrinsic neurons through an increase in K+ conductance and presynaptic inhibition of sensory nerve terminals to inhibit the release of substance P and perhaps glutamate. Although adenosine A3 receptors are not found in the nervous system, adenosine is also known to have anti-inflammatory properties that may contribute to pain relief in the peripheral setting of inflammation.
