Filter by:This is a randomized double-blinded placebo controlled trial to examine the use of rectal diazepam suppositories after major vaginal pelvic organ prolapse surgery will decrease postoperative pain in the interval between 3.5 and 6 hours postoperative compared to placebo.
comparison of continuous epidural analgesia and ultrasound guided continuous supra-inguinal fascia iliaca compartment block after total hip replacement surgery
A prospective randomized controlled study was undertaken to compare the postoperative analgesic effect between ultrasound-guided serratus anterior plane block and intercostal nerve block after single port video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery with primary spontaneous pneumothorax.
The study aimed to compare Erector Spinae Plane (ESP) block versus infraclavicular subomohyoid (ISO) block in the provision of efficacy of either technique in postoperative analgesia in shoulder surgery, aiming to testing the safety of each block in terms of incidence of complications. Patients will be randomly divided into two groups, Group E will receive Erector spinae block and group I will receive infraclavicular subomohyioid block. The local anesthetic solution that will be used in both blocks will be a total volume of 30 mls 0.25%bupivacaine plus 3mg preservative free Dexamethasone. The time between recovery from anesthesia and first pain experienced, as verified by NRS ≥ 3 and first need of a rescue analgesic, will be defined as the duration of analgesia. The total dose of intravenous morphine (the rescue analgesic) used over 24 h postoperatively will be recorded.
It has been hypothesized that because music has the ability to motivate, promote relaxation, alleviate pain and anxiety levels, to distract, and facilitate positive emotional states; thus it will enable healing by reducing anxiety levels which are associated with expected pain, hence patients are more unperturbed. In addition, several studies in the past have also identified that music listening can reduce the need for analgesics before surgery and after surgery to alleviate pain, reduce the period of post-operative pain and aid in the recovery period. While most studies which had administered music listening in the post-anaesthesia care unit (PACU), had found significant findings compared to patients that did not listen to music; there are few others which found otherwise. Over decades, time and again, researchers have tried to understand how non-pharmacological interventions have been utilized in a spectrum of rehabilitation settings in populations to stimulate convalesces. This is because non-pharmacological interventions have been recognised as valuable, simple, safe, and inexpensive adjuvants to pharmacological approaches in pain management and therefore is valuable during post-operative rehabilitation especially. This research is necessary because it hopes to address the gap of knowledge concerning the effects of music in post-operative pain, anxiety objectively in a specific population, and during an explicit time frame in a public hospital setting in Malaysia and whether by listening to music, the patients will require lesser amount of opioids analgesics. The purpose of this study is to examine the effects of music on pain and anxiety during post-operative period in patients with closed shaft femur fracture at University of Malaya Medical Centre.
BACKGROUND: Postoperative pain after cardiac surgery has high incidence and is associated with worse morbidity. Pregabalin is a new antiepileptic drug used in patients with chronic pain and has been studied even more in postoperative. OBJECTIVE: Evaluate whether preemptive pregabalin use compared with placebo decreases pain perception in patients undergoing cardiac surgery in the first 24 hours and 2 months after hospital discharge; evaluate analgesic consumption in the immediate postoperative period; evaluate differences in blood gas parameters between groups; evaluate anesthetic recovery by QoR-40; assess incidence of serious adverse events (reintubation and mental confusion); incidence of delirium through the CAM-ICU questionnaire; assess adverse drug events (nausea, vomiting, pharmacodermia, allergic reactions). METHOD: Randomized, triple-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial. EXPECTED RESULTS: Postoperative pain control with a drug that could cause fewer side effects, may lead to faster clinical improvement, fewer medications and fewer procedures, and lower healthcare costs with a decrease in intensive care unit (ICU) stay.
Postcraniotomy pain remains a common phenomenon in the neurosurgery field. Managements for postcraniotomy pain are to be standardised and optimized. In the proposed study, the investigators aim to provide a novel regional non-invasive prophylactic strategy for postcraniotomy pain by utilizing Lidocaine 5% plaster.
Tonsillectomy is one of the most performed procedures in childhood, which carries with it certain postoperative problems, such as the pain of the operated area. Sickness greatly impairs the quality of life in the postoperative period and further reduces food and fluid intake in children, which in turn causes prolonged recovery after surgery. The impact of cooling oropharynx in the form of ice cream consumption as a form of cryotherapy could help reduce the pain, reduce the use of oral analgesic therapy and help in faster recovery after surgery. Research goal: The aim of the study is to determine whether the consumption of ice cream, as a form of cryotherapy, influences the rate of postoperative recovery after tonsillectomy and the consumption of oral analgesics in children. The study was designed as a prospective, randomized, parallel-group, unmasked, and longitudinal study enroling 100 children undergoing tonsillectomy in a tertiary referral center. Of those children, 60 will consume the same ice cream (a combination of vanilla and chocolate as universally acceptable flavors) twice daily, morning and evening, for two weeks after surgery. 40 children will not consume ice cream during the stated period. Parents will be given a questionnaire with a validated VAS Wong-Baker FACES scale (Visual - Analogue - Scale) used by the Zagreb Pediatric Disease Clinic to be completed at home based on communication with the child and containing information on a visual-analogue subjective pain experience in children every morning after eating ice cream and the amount of analgesics the children received during the first two weeks after surgery. There will also be a record of the days when children began to consume food and drink in the same range and quality as before surgery.
Pain is a global public health issue and represents the most common reason for both physician consultation and hospital admissions. Dexketoprofen is a new NSAID treating acute postoperative pain. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the analgesic effect when it is given intravenously or as part of the local infiltration analgesia in patients under spinal anesthesia undergoing unilateral total knee arthroplasty.
Total hip replacement is one of major orthopedic surgery which result in severe postoperative pain especially at first 24 hours. Ultrasound guided regional anesthesia has become a part of multimodal analgesia.Ultrasound guided supra-inguinal fascia iliaca block is a new technique which can consistently cover femoral and lateral femoral cutaneous nerve. And with large volume (40ml), it may cover obturator nerve. This technique already proved to be useful for acute pain control in hip fracture or postoperative control in dynamic hip screw or nail insertion operation. However, it has not been compared with intrathecal morphine for total hip replacement yet.
