Filter by:Chronic postsurgical pain (CPSP) refers to pain that occurs or increases after surgery and lasts longer than 3 months. Severe postoperative acute pain is one of the major risk factors of CPSP. Spine surgery brings severe postoperative pain due to large trauma and long duration. Ketamine and esketamine are N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor antagonists; they have anti-hyperalgesic effects and may reduce CPSP. Dexmedetomidine is an alpha 2-adrenoceptor agonist with sedative, anxiolytic, and analgesic effect; it is frequently used as an adjuvant to postoperative analgesia. In a previous trial of the investigators, 200 patients following scoliosis correction surgery were randomzied to receive opioid analgsia supplemented with either mini-dose esketamine-dexmedetomidine combination or placebo. The results showed that esketamine-dexmedetomidine supplement analgesia significantly improved analgesia and sleep quality after surgery. This study is designed to test the hypothesis that mini-dose esketamine-dexmedetomidine supplemented analgesia may reduce CPSP at 2 years after scoliosis correction surgery.
Thoracotomy is one of the most painful operations known. Therefore, it causes severe acute pain. If pain is not controlled, it increases the frequency of postoperative pulmonary complications and postoperative morbidity. It can even cause chronic pain in the future. Thoracic epidural analgesia (TEA) is the gold standard method in the treatment of pain after thoracotomy. Thoracic paravertebral block (TPVB) is known as the most effective method after TEA. The fact that TPVB has fewer side effects than TEA increases the use of TPVB. There is no consensus on the dose of analgesia in studies. In the literature, volumes between 20 ml and 30 ml are frequently used for TPVB in recent years. This study, it was aimed to compare the efficacy of 20 ml, 25 ml, and 30 ml volumes of TPVB with local anesthetic at the same concentration (0.25% bupivacaine) on postoperative analgesia in patients undergoing thoracotomy.
This prospective parallel group randomized study will be conducted over 52 adult participants between 20 and 60 years ASA (American Association of Anesthesiologists) I and II undergoing lumbar spine surgery. The participants will be randomly allocated into 2 groups. Group BM (Bupivacaine + magnesium sulfate) will receive bilateral erector spinae block using bupivacaine and magnesium sulfate after induction of general anesthesia, while group BD (Bupivacaine + dexmedetomidine) will receive bilateral erector spinae block using bupivacaine and dexmedetomidine after induction of general anesthesia. Hemodynamic changes will be monitored intraoperatively, and postoperative pain will be assessed using the visual analogue scale in order to assess the need for postoperative analgesia.
To investigate the clinical application of ultrasound-guided continuous low serratus anterior plane block in open surgery for hepatocellular carcinoma.
Comparing efficacy of Ultrasound-guided Erector Spinae Plane Block versus Retrolaminar Block for Postoperative Analgesia in Patients Undergoing Thoracotomy
Comparison Between the Effect of Infiltration Between the Popliteal Artery and Capsule of the Knee Block Versus Selective Tibial Nerve Block for Postoperative Analgesia in Patient Undergoing Total Knee Arthroplasty.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the role of duloxetine in controlling pain after radical mastectomy.
This is a multi-center, randomized, double-blind, placebo/active-controlled study. About 387 subjects undergoing elective abdominal operation under general anesthesia are planned to be enrolled and randomized into the HSK21542 group (129 subjects), tramadol group (129 subjects), and placebo group (129 subjects).
In our study, It was aimed to determine the dose of morphine that provides the most effective analgesia with the least incidence of side effects in the postoperative period.
Cesarean section is the one of the most common surgical procedures. Inadequate pain management is associated with increased morbidity, costs, and maternal dissatisfaction. Furthermore, effective postoperative pain management enables mothers to care for their newborn infants. Systemic and neuraxial opioids are the cornerstone of postoperative pain management; however, opioids are associated with significant side effect such as respiratory depression, urine retention, constipation, and itching. To reduce the postoperative opioids requirement and subsequently their side effects, multimodal regimen is advice including neuraxial anesthesia, neuraxial morphine, regular administration of non-opioids analgesia (non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs and acetaminophen) and planned use of opioid for breakthrough pain. The addition of peripheral nerve blocks to the multimodal analgesic plan was found to reduced postoperative opioids requirement in non-obstetric procedures. Quadratus lumborum (QLB) and erector spinae plane (ESPB) blocks are relatively new techniques for peripheral nerve block and showed promising results in managing pain after Cesarean delivery. There are several types of QLB that had been described. Lateral (QLB1), posterior (QLB2), and anterior (QLB3) quadratus lumborum blocks been studied in cesarean delivery and were found to reduce opioids requirement when compared against placebo. Cadaver studies suggest that local anesthetic deposition at QLB1 diffuses mainly to the transversus abdominis muscle plane while, at QLB2, and at QLB3 spread may occur into the thoracic paravertebral space providing additional visceral pain control. ESPB can provide both visceral and somatic analgesia due to anterior spread to the paravertebral space. ESPB was found to reduce postoperative opioids requirement in comparison to transversus abdominis plane block and intrathecal morphine. To the best of our knowledge, there is no published data comparing the analgesic effect of QLB3 (anterior QL) and ESPB after elective cesarean delivery.
