Filter by:Postoperative pain after cesarean delivery is common and affects on both mothers and children. The goals of this retrospective observational study aim to predict pain score and opioid consumption of index cesarean delivery from pain score and opioid consumption of previous cesarean delivery.
This study was performed on 42 patients, who underwent arthroscopic meniscus repair surgery in the Orthopedics and Traumatology Department of Acıbadem Maslak Hospital. 42 patients randomly assigned to 14 synchronized telerehabilitation, 14 asynchronous telerehabilitation, 14 conventional physiotherapy groups and included in the study. The evaluation form created for the provision of demographic information are used. Primary outcome measures are muscle strength, range of motion (ROM) and pain intensity. Secondary outcome measures are general health profile and functional status assessment of the knee joint . Evaluation methods: All evaluations were performed in the preoperative period, 10. day, 6. week and 6. month postoperatively. ROM and pain measurements repeated every week during the 6-week rehabilitation process. Pain, general health profile and functional status assessment of the knee joint were assessed via a telerehabilitation application, Albert Health Assistant. Postoperative first day, the 14-day exercise program was taught to all patients practically and was given as a brochure. Patients in the synchronized telerehabilitation group started physiotherapy postoperative 14. day, met with the physiotherapist in real time via the Albert Health Assistant application and they were treated 2 days a week until 6. week. In the remaining days, they asked to follow the exercise videos uploaded to the Albert system, it was checked whether they are doing daily exercises, and a daily reminder message was sent via the system. The exercise program for the asynchronous telerehabilitation group was uploaded to the Albert Health Assistant as a video from the 14th day in the form of 2-week programs. It was checked over the system whether the patients apply these videos on a daily basis, and a message reminding the daily routine exercise program was sent through the system. Patients in the supervised physiotherapy group started to take supervized rehabilitation after 10-14 days postoperatively, 2 times a week until 6th week postoperatively in Maslak Acıbadem Hospital Orthopedics and Traumatology Department. ROM, Pain, functional and general health evaluations of the patients in this group were performed on the online platform. In addition, daily routine exercises will be followed over the Albert system on the days they do not come for treatment.
Robotic assisted laparoscopic surgery has become an alternative to open or laparoscopic technique in various surgical fields. Robot assisted laparoscopic surgery is preferred by surgeons and patients due to easy accessibility, lower blood loss and lower transfusion rates. However, robotic assisted laparoscopic surgery can cause significant changes in cardiovascular, respiratory, metabolic and cerebral physiology because it requires a deep trendy position. When long -lasting deep trendelenburg position is applied, the cerebral autoregulation is impaired. In the literature, the presence of cases with brain edema is shown. In recent years, many biomarkers have been used in the evaluation of brain damage. S100 Calcium Binding Protein (S100β), N Ron specific enolase (NSE), Glial Fibrils are among the biomarkers used to show acidic protein (GFAP) brain damage. The S100β is specific and is mainly produced by astrocytes and enters the bloodstream after neuron damage. Glial fibrils is an acidic protein (GFAP), a protein encoded by the GFAP gene in humans, an intermediate filament protein produced in the central nervous system. Neuron specific enolase (NSE) is one of the enzymes that increase brain damage encoded by Enolase 2 (ENO2) gene. Mini Mental State Examination and Montreal Cognitive Assessment will be performed to determine neurological changes developing in patients. The purpose of this study; Robotic assisted laparoscopic surgery is to examine the brain damage that may develop in patients due to deep trendelenburg position in patients with the said biomarkers and to evaluate the anesthesia methods applied in these surgery in line with the study results.
The objective of this study is to compare the effects of TTPB vs PIFB on postoperative opioid consumption in patients undergoing open cardiac surgery.
Following laparoscopic bariatric surgery, multimodal analgesia is recommended to avoid the adverse effects of opioids by reducing their use. Although lidocaine, ketamine, and dexmedetomidine have been used as adjuvant analgesics, no studies have evaluated the superiority of their intra- and postoperative infusions as components of multimodal analgesia in bariatric surgery. The present study is aimed to compare lidocaine, dexmedetomidine, and ketamine in multimodal analgesia management following Sleeve Gastrectomy Surgery. Postoperative pain scores, the requirement for additional postoperative analgesia, retching, nausea and vomiting, time to mobilization, and hospital length of stay will be evaluated.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate safety and 2-year local control rate for postoperative concurrent chemoradiotherapy for esophageal squamous cell carcinoma.
TRICS-IV is an international, multi-centre, open-label randomized controlled trial of two commonly used transfusion strategies in moderate to high risk patients who are 65 years of age or younger undergoing cardiac surgery on cardiopulmonary bypass, using a superiority trial design.
Patients undergoing spine surgery frequently experience significant pain after surgery. This can limit patient activity and hinder rehabilitation. If inadequately treated, severe pain can result in emotional and psychological distress and ultimately impact long-term function, and increase the risk of developing pain that lasts longer than six months associated with depression, anxiety and disability. More specifically, Erector Spinae Plane (ESP) block is a recently described plane block designed to block the dorsal and ventral rami of the thoracic spinal nerves. It has shown to be an effective modality for postoperative pain management as a part of multimodal analgesia in spinal surgery.
During patient follow up the investigators noticed the occasional occurence of a lung herniation after uniportal Video assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS). Most of These patients were asymptomatic and didn't require any kind of treatment. To analyse the incidence of postoperative lung herniation after uniportal and the presence of symptoms the investigators decided to review every postoperative CT scan from January 2016 until March 2019 to radiologically identify postoperative lung herniations. Afterwards the investigators will contact the respective patient to ask for a follow-up physical examination and symptom evaluation (after consent was signed).
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Outpatient surgery (day case surgery) is increasing. When the patients go home on the same day, this demands safe pain relief. A reduction of morphine (opioid) use is sought because of side effects and the dependency risk. An effective alternative to opioids is ketamine, which lacks the side effects of opioids but provides powerful analgesic effects. METHOD At the start of surgery, Ketamine or placebo will be given in a vein to evaluate if the acute pain decreases significantly. Inflammation is known to cause pain. By measuring different proteins in the blood, the investigators want to understand how inflammation links to the pain. Wisdom tooth surgery provides significant post-operative pain and is a widely accepted pain model in drug studies. Patients referred for wisdom tooth surgery are asked to participate in the study. For statistical certainty, in total 165 persons will be enrolled to three groups. Two with active drug (different dose) and one placebo. Everyone gets local anesthesia. The completion of the study will be done in four years. The Ethics Review Board has approved the study. CLINICAL RELEVANCE Effective pain relief after daily surgical procedures is important for patient´s safety and reducing the risk of long-term pain. It is also ethically necessary for the continued expansion of day case surgery. New knowledge of the mechanisms of pain increases the opportunities for individual and safe pain relief. Day case surgery is performed in all operating specialties, this might affects many patients nationally and internationally.
