Filter by:Bupivacaine is commonly used as a sole agent for spinal anesthesia unlike pethidine. Pethidine (meperidine) is a unique opioid. In addition to its analgesic activity, it also has significant local anesthetic activity. This property enables it to be used as the sole agent for spinal anesthesia
Nowadays, the incidence of breast cancer is the first number of malignant tumors, and the primary treatment method is surgery. As is known to all, less postoperative complications and enhanced recovery are closely related to effective analgesia. However, postoperative patients often experience moderate pain, while associated with axillary discomfort. Serratus Anterior Plane Block (SAPB) relieves postoperative pain, but traditional single point block method has no effect on axillary discomfort. Therefore, it is necessary to try double point blocks to explore their impact on postoperative analgesia and axillary comfort. This RCT will recruit patients proposed to undergo Modified Radical Mastectomy (MRM) and be randomized to single point or double point groups to evaluate their postoperative pain score and axillary comfort in order to provide clinical guidance.
Postoperative pain after laparoscopic abdominal surgeries can be severe. Despite multimodal analgesia protocols, administration of high doses of opioids is often required hindering early mobilization and discharge of the patient from the day surgery setting and is suboptimal in an Early Recovery after Surgery setting. Settings and design A prospective randomized double blinded study. Aim To evaluate and compare the analgesic effect of ultrasound-guided erector spinae plane (ESP) block with ultrasound-guided posterior Quadratus Lumborum Block in laparoscopic abdominal surgeries. Patients and methods This randomized prospective study will be carried for 6 months on adult patients with American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) Physical Status Class I and II, aged between 30 and 60 years.
In this study, it was aimed to compare the embryonic route, the umbilicus, and the sub-umbilicus incision in terms of postoperative pain scoring. For this purpose, in laparoscopic hysterectomies performed for benign reasons, it is planned to measure the pain score at the 8th hour and 1st day postoperatively in the umbilicus and subumbilical incision. Visual analog scoring system will be used for pain scoring.
In the domain of endocrine gland surgery, thyroidectomy is the most common procedure. Patients report moderate to severe discomfort postoperatively, which is induced by a variety of mechanisms, the most common of which are cervical incision and surgical maneuvers. The other two causes are endotracheal intubation and neck overextension. Incisional pain, odynophagia, dysphagia, neck and shoulder pain have all been reported as sources of discomfort.However, it seems that this discomfort has a time limit, with a considerable decrease in pain scores that will last 24 to 36 hours. Pain is felt more profoundly within the first few hours after surgery, peaking at 6 hours, with patients requesting further analgesic medication. Surgical wound infiltration can inhibit this procedure by preventing the alginate signal from reaching the incision site's receptors. According to the multimodal analgesia trends, magnesium sulfate can be added to the ropivacaine solution. Magnesium acts as an NMDA (N-methyl-D-aspartate) receptor antagonist, inhibiting cerebral sensitization to peripheral pain stimuli while reducing pre-existing hyperalgesia. It becomes evident that this combination could contribute to attain the maximum analgesic efficacy. So, if any superiority of ropivacaine plus magnesium sulphate over ropivacaine could be demonstrated this would be very helpful in providing sufficient analgesic effects with a low incidence of adverse effects, while enhancing the option of one day surgery.
Comparing the impact of bilateral erector spinae plane block and transverse abdominis plane block on improving quality of pain management after umbilical hernia repair.
To explore and compare Ultrasound-Guided Transversus Abdominis Plane Block on Postoperative nausea and vomiting and Early Outcome After Laparoscopic Bariatric Surgery To evaluate and examine TAPB can reduce the application of intraoperative and postoperative opioids and the duration of analgesia
Background Pain after cardiac surgery is both multifocal and multifactorial. Sternotomy, sternal retraction, internal mammary dissection, posterior rib dislocation or fracture, possible brachial plexus injury, and mediastinal and pleural drains contribute to pain experienced in the immediate postoperative period. Ineffective pain management can cause systemic and pulmonary complications and significant cardiac consequences. Methods This study was conducted to compare the effectiveness of regional anesthesia techniques for perioperative pain management in cardiac surgery patients at our clinic. The effects of analgesic methods, in terms of contributing to recovery, have been examined.
Ultrasound-guided thoracolumbar interfascial plane block (TLIP)was first described in 2015 by Hand et al which also target the dorsal rami of the thoracolumbar nerves as they pass through the paraspinal musculature(between the multifidus muscle (MF) and the longissimus muscle (LG)). The block was performed bilaterally at the level of L3 and they reported a reproducible area of anesthesia to pinprick in a mean (SD) area covering 137.4 (71.0) cm2 of the lower back (including the midline) after 20 minutes of the block. This procedure has subsequently been modified by Ueshima H et al in 2016 by targeting the injection in the plane between the longissimus and iliocostalis muscles (mTLIP) which helps avoiding the spread of local anesthetics to the ventral ramus and neuraxial space, thus, the modified TLIP block is considered to be a more refined version of the original TLIP block and safer and easier to perform. There are limited number of studies investigating the analgesic efficacy of mTLIP block however, no previous study has demonstrated the ideal local anesthetic volume for this block in lumber spine surgery. Moreover, this technique is considered new regional anesthetic techniques and so both of them should be involved in further studies, on the other hand the comparison between both of them at the same study wasn't discussed before, and so we will proceed at this study.
Patients of breast surgery dated between April 2016 and March 2021 will be scanned in three groups; solely induced general anesthesia, general anesthesia induced with Erector Spinae Plane Block, and general anesthesia induced with Rhomboid Block. The investigators aimed to retrospectively compare the effectiveness of regional anesthesia techniques used in the clinic for postoperative recovery and opioid consumption in patients who underwent breast surgery.
