Filter by:After surgery on his penis, your child will probably have some pain. The investigators will give you a prescription for acetaminophen (Tylenol) with codeine, given by mouth (orally), for pain. In this study, the investigators want to see if a local anesthetic cream applied to the base of the shaft of the penis can reduce the need for oral medicine .
Keyhole surgery for bowel disease has brought great benefits, enabling patients to recover quicker from surgery and so return to normal activities. Although keyhole surgery reduces pain following abdominal surgery, it still causes enough pain to require strong pain killing medications such as morphine-like drugs which, although good pain killers, can have a detrimental effect on the recovery of bowel function, leading to feelings of nausea and vomiting and ultimately delaying recovery. These side-effects can reduce the potential benefits from keyhole surgery and our "fast-track" recovery programmes. The aim of this project is to assess the effectiveness of a new method of pain control after keyhole bowel surgery. The study involves the injection of local anaesthetic into the abdominal muscles once the patient is anaesthetised. Although use of local anaesthetic is common practice, we are looking at a new technique of injecting it called a transversus abdominis plane (or TAP) block. This technique will attempt to block the pain nerves to the abdomen prior to the operation beginning. We plan to investigate whether this new technique will reduce the amount of pain following keyhole bowel surgery. If successful, it might be used to further enhance people's recovery from bowel surgery.
Comparative efficacy of 24 and 48 hours post operative pain control in single total knee replacement between intrathecal bupivacaine with 0.2 or 0.3 mg morphine together with 0.25 or 0.5 % bupivacaine for single femoral nerve block
To evaluate the safety and efficacy of self-titration to effective analgesia with inhaled AeroLEF in patients with moderate/severe acute pain in the post-surgical setting.
The purpose of this study is to compare, the safety, efficacy and level of parent and nurse satisfaction with three methods of opioid administration post-operatively in children (4-18 years of age) with developmental delay.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of multiple doses of Ibuprofen 600 mg Extended-Release Tablets in a study of dental pain following extraction of third molar teeth.
Objective: To determine a minimally effective initial local anesthetic bolus required to provide satisfactory analgesia using continuous brachial plexus infusion following arthroscopic shoulder surgery using a double-blind, randomized, study comparing 3 initial doses.
Thoracotomy for lung tumor or for minimally invasive direct coronary artery bypass (MIDCAB) surgery, may be associated with debilitating pain. Ketamine was shown to enhance opioid antinociception and prevent opioid resistance. We hypothesize that ketamine given with morphine would lower morphine consumption and narcotic related side effects after thoracotomy and provide superior analgesia to morphine given alone.
Gabapentin is a medicine that has been used in adults (but not yet in children) to treat pain after surgery. In children it has been used for many years to treat other conditions and has been shown to be very safe. Removal of tonsils is a common operation with each child experiencing a similar pattern of pain; this makes it good for looking at the effect of pain relieving medicines. In our study each child will get the same operation and medicines, as they would have normally. Before the operation and in a random way, half will get gabapentin and half will get the same syrup but with no gabapentin. Afterwards we will record how much pain the children have and how much of our standard medicine is needed to make them comfortable. We expect both of these results to be lower in the half who received gabapentin. We will also record the amount and type of unwanted effects, both from the gabapentin and from any other pain relief medicines.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate three different dosage strengths of sublingual ARX-F01 (Sufentanil NanoTab) versus a sublingual Placebo NanoTab for the treatment of post-operative pain in subjects following total knee replacement surgery. We hypothesize that subjects receiving placebo will have poor pain relief and will drop out of the study sooner and more often than the ARX-F01-treated subjects.
