Filter by:The goal of this randomized double blind study is to evaluate the analgesic efficacy of Transversus Thoracis Muscle Plane Block in patients undergoing cardiac surgery with median sternotomy. one group of participants will receive multimodal analgesia plus ultrasound-guided Transversus Thoracis Muscle Plane Block with ropivacaine 0.5 % after induction of general anesthesia, the other group will receive multimodal analgesia without a bloc. The investigators want to know if participants who receive the Transversus Thoracis Muscle Plane Block with ropivacaine have less pain than participants who do not receive a block.
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare different strategies for normothermia prevention in patients undergoing body contouring and other Aesthetic Plastic Surgery procedures. The main question(s) it aims to answer are: - Do active measures have an impact on preventing hypothermia in patients undergoing cosmetic procedures? - Does an active normothermia prevention protocol have any impact in the clinical setting? Four different protocols will be used for patient peroperative preparation for normothermia.
It is known that non-pharmacological methods are effective in reducing pain in children and that they increase the effectiveness of drugs when used together with analgesics. Non-pharmacological methods are preferred because they are easy to apply and cheap, and they reduce the need for drug administration and thus the risk of side effects. Knowing the impact of pain and associated fear on children, developing appropriate pain control strategies is both a medical and ethical responsibility. Reviewing the literature, there is little scientific evidence that multisensory stimulation is an effective intervention in reducing pain and fear after surgery in children. When the studies on the effect of multisensory stimulation on pain and fear in childhood are examined, it is seen that the studies mostly aim to reduce pain and fear in the neonatal period or before surgery. It is thought that it is an important limitation that multisensory stimulation, which is an effective method for reducing pain and fear in childhood, does not examine its direct effects on postoperative pain, physiological parameters and fear after surgical procedures in children. In this context, the aim of the study is to examine the effect of multisensory stimulation on postoperative pain, physiological parameters and fear in children after the surgical procedure.
The results of ketamine, ketamine and midazolom and placebo can be copied after birth in cesareans subjected to spinal anesthesia.
Aim: Evaluation of the effect of different obturation techniques on postoperative pain level and radiographic healing on non-surgical endodontic retreatment (NSER) applied in a single visit in teeth with single root canal and apical periodontitis (AP). Materials and Methods: 63 teeth with single-root canal and AP from 50 systemically healthy patients (mean age 34.19±9.75 years; 27 women, 23 men) were included in the study. Residual root canal filling materials were removed with retreatment files. All teeth were prepared using rotary files . The teeth were randomly divided into three groups according to the obturation technique; cold lateral compaction (CLC), continuous wave compaction (CWC), and gutta-core (TGC). Restorations are completed using direct composite resin in the same visit. In all cases, pain status were evaluated using the Numerical Pain Rating Scale (NRS) at preoperative, postoperative, 3rd hour, 24th hour, 48th hour, and 7th day. Periapical index (PAI) scores were recorded on preoperative and postoperative 6-month on the periapical radiographs for cases. Data were analyzed as statistically. Significance level was determined as p < 0.05.
Total hip arthroplasty (THA) is a surgery that relieves hip joint pain and improves its functions and is widely performed in the elderly population. New analgesic methods need to be developed to protect these patients from the pain and side effects of opioids used for treatment. Many scales are available to indicate postoperative patient recovery. One of these is the quality of recovery-15 (QoR-15) recovery test, which was first applied by Stark et al. in 2013. We think that an ESPB applied from the sacral region will spread to the lumbar region by diffusion, affect the lumbar plexus, and provide complete analgesia in the ventral and dorsal regions of the hip by affecting the sacral plexus in the sacral region. The investigator's primary aim in this study is to evaluate the effect of sacral erector spinae plane block (S-ESPB) on the quality of recovery and healing after TKA through the QoR-15 score and to evaluate its effect on postoperative pain.
At the end of your cesarean section surgery, which is started by applying medication to the spinal cavity from your waist, pain medication will be applied between the relevant muscle and its covering from your lower abdomen or back with the help of ultrasonography and a special block needle. Then, a patient-controlled pain device with a serum containing painkillers will be connected to your vascular access, and its use and purpose will be explained to you. You will be asked about your pain condition and the severity score of your pain, if any, at certain hourly intervals. At the end of 24 hours, a pain device will be removed, your satisfaction will be questioned and your complaints, if any, will be recorded. Immediately before surgery and 4-6 days after your surgery. An evaluation survey consisting of 10 questions will be asked to you within a 5-minute period during the weeks, at a time when you are free, and your answers will be recorded.
This study aims to determine whether goal-directed analgesia using ANI(Analgesia/Nociception Index) can improve the quality of postoperative recovery in patients undergoing maxillofacial surgery.
Background: Pain after breast plastic surgery affects quality of life. Physical therapy offers effective interventions for this condition, such as transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS). Although this resource has been used for more than 20 years, no studies have been published that support its use following this type of surgery. Therefore, the aim of the proposed study is to evaluate the effect of TENS on pain intensity in patients undergoing mastopexy with implants, given the existing evidence on the success of TENS for other conditions. Methods: A two-arm, randomized, sham-controlled trial will be conducted with blinded assessors. The study will be carried out at the Exercise Physiology and Metabolism Lab of Finis Terrae University. Eligible participants will be women undergoing mastopexy with implants invited by a board-certified plastic surgeon. The participants will be randomly assigned to one of two study groups: Group 1 (surgery + TENS) and Group 2 (surgery + sham TENS). TENS will be administered only one hour after surgery and will remain for one hour. Four assessments will be performed: before treatment (T0), immediately after treatment (T1), one hour (T2) and four hours after TENS (T3). The primary outcome will be pain intensity at rest, pain intensity during movement (standardized movements of both arms: anterior flexion, abduction, and external rotation), and during respiratory function tests. Secondary outcome measures will be maximum inspiratory pressure (MIP), maximum expiratory pressure (MEP), and vital capacity (VC). Discussion In this study, the effects of TENS on patients with pain following mastopexy with implants will be compared to the effects of a sham TENS intervention. This RCT will offer novel evidence on the potential benefits of TENS in terms of pain intensity at rest as well as during movements and respiratory function tests.

This is a clinical trial aimed at understanding the impact of a shoulder exercise routine on postoperative shoulder pain in patients who have undergone laparoscopic hysterectomy. **Main Questions:** 1. Does implementing a shoulder exercise routine immediately after laparoscopic hysterectomy reduce postoperative shoulder pain? **Brief Explanation:** We want to see if doing shoulder exercises right after laparoscopic hysterectomy can help reduce the pain they might feel in their shoulders. This kind of pain can happen because of the gas used during the surgery. Using exercises could be a cost-effective and easy way to help patients recover better after the surgery. **Hypothesis:** We think that doing shoulder exercises right after laparoscopic hysterectomy will lower the amount of shoulder pain patients experience after the surgery. **Objective:** Our goal is to find out if a shoulder exercise routine can make a difference in how much shoulder pain patients have right after laparoscopic hysterectomy. **How We'll Do It:** This study aims to evaluate the impact of a shoulder exercise routine on reducing postoperative shoulder pain in women who have undergone total laparoscopic hysterectomy at the National Institute of Perinatology. Recognizing the high prevalence and intensity of post-laparoscopy shoulder pain, the study compares the effectiveness of shoulder exercises to hand exercises in managing this pain. Patients, selected based on specific inclusion and exclusion criteria, will be randomly assigned to either the shoulder or hand exercise group. The exercise regimen involves performing specific movements at regular intervals during the immediate postoperative period, except at night. Pain intensity will be measured using a Visual Analog Scale at various intervals postoperatively. The study controls for several variables, including visceral and incisional pain, duration of pneumoperitoneum, analgesic use, and patient characteristics like BMI and comorbidities, to ensure a comprehensive understanding of the exercises' effectiveness. The hypothesis tests whether shoulder exercises can reduce shoulder pain more effectively than hand exercises. This research could have significant implications for enhancing recovery and pain management strategies post-laparoscopy.
