Filter by:This study is designed to test the efficacy of adding Depomedrol a long-acting steroid to bupivacaine for relieving postoperative pain and reducing opioid requirements following total knee replacement surgery. For this purpose, Depomedrol will be added to bupivacaine for ultrasound-guided Genicular nerve block combined with spinal anesthesia.
Postoperative pain management is one of the important factors to improve rehabilitation and enhance recovery. External oblique intercostal plane block may be used for abdominal wall analgesia to provide effective analgesia for abdominal surgery. The aim of this study is to investigate the postoperative analgesic efficacy of external oblique intercostal plane block and subcostal transversus abdominis plane block in living liver donors. Researchers will compare the external oblique intercostal plane block group with subcostal transversus abdominis plane block to see if the external oblique intercostal plane block is effective for postoperative analgesia in living liver donors.
Breast cancer is the most diagnosed type of cancer in women in Turkey and in the world. According to the World Health Organization data, the rate of newly diagnosed breast cancer was reported as 11.6% in 20181. Acute postoperative pain occurs in 40% of patients undergoing surgery for breast cancer2. In the early postoperative period, opioids are commonly used analgesics in the treatment of pain, but they have various side effects such as gastrointestinal, urinary and respiratory symptoms3. Non-opioid analgesics can be used to reduce opioid use and thus limit its side effects. Magnesium sulfate (MgSO4) is an N-Methyl D-Aspartate (NMDA) receptor antagonist that has been used for postoperative analgesia and reducing both the duration and intensity of pain by preventing central sensitization in response to peripheral painful stimulus4-9. The primary aim of this study is to investigate the postoperative analgesic efficacy of MgSO4 in patients who were scheduled for mastectomy with the diagnosis of breast cancer. The secondary aim of our study is to evaluate the changes in perioperative vital signs that may occur due to MgSO4.
Patients will be divided into 2 groups, 30 each. Group A will receive sphenopalatine ganglion block via a gauze soaked in local anesthetic introduced in the 2 nostrils then by local anesthetic injected by a cannula into both nostrils. Group B will undergo the same procedure, but normal saline will be used instead of the local anesthetic.
Radical prostatectomy is performed with a median incision below the umbilicus. Although the position is supine, the waist extension movement is created in order to facilitate access to the surgical site. The investigator think that this may be a factor affecting the postoperative comfort, not only in the pain in the surgical field, but especially in patients with low back pain (facet joint pain, etc.). Techniques that provide quality postoperative recovery with reduced morbidity and rapid return to daily activities are important for anesthesiologists. In this study, the investigator aimed to evaluate the postoperative recovery quality (Quality of Recovery score (QoR-40)) of patients who underwent open radical prostatectomy and underwent erector spina plan block and wound infiltration for postoperative analgesia.
The establishment of the Enhanced Recovery After Cesarean protocols resulted in to the production of specific care pathways with the aim of optimizing recovery after cesarean delivery (CD) and to reduce the costs to the health care system. Carbohydrate rich fluids are offered in this aspect to enhance postoperative quality of recovery. The primary aim of this randomised control trial is to assess the impact of pre-operative carbohydrate loading on obstetric quality of recovery after elective cesarean section.
The AirSeal System Valve-less Trocar is known to decrease postoperative pain, consumption of analgesics, operating time, and length of stay in adults during robotic and laparoscopic procedures. The investigators would like to know if these allegations also apply to children.
In this study, the investigators will compare two different anesthetic solutions in the infraclavicular block in patients having forearm, wrist, and hand surgery. The solutions will be bupivacaine 0.5% versus bupivacaine 0.25% plus lidocaine 1%, both associated with epinephrine 5 mcg/ml and dexamethasone 4 mg. The main objective of this investigation is to demonstrate that using higher concentrations of bupivacaine alone results in a significant block duration increase compared with the mixture of bupivacaine and lidocaine.
Comparison of different postoperative analgesia after laparoscopic colorectal surgery
Patients planned for elective laparoscopic cholecystectomy received a peroperative ultrasound-guided subcostal transversus abdominis plane block (USTAP) at the beginning of the procedure. At T90 minutes after the end of anaesthesia the cutaneous sensory block area (CSBA) was measured using cold sensation and mapped with a sterile marker. The CSBA was photodocumented and the area calculated.
