Filter by:This study aims to compare PENG block and LV-ISBP block in the incidence of phrenic nerve block, duration of postoperative analgesia, time to first analgesic request (VAS > 30 mm), pain scores, and side effects.
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.
The purpose of this study is to translate Quick Disabilities of Arm, Shoulder & Hand (QuickDASH) into Urdu and determine the validity and reliability of the Urdu version of QuickDASH.
Shoulder pain is one of the most common musculoskeletal conditions among athletes and sports enthusiasts who engage in overhead sports, and it can be highly disabling. Since the shoulder is one of the joints with the greatest range of motion in the human body, it is important to seek strategies that address trunk stability comprehensively to achieve full and effective joint mobility. The central role of the diaphragm in trunk stabilization has been the subject of research for over 50 years, although the exact mechanisms are still not fully understood. The objective of this study is to assess the effects of inspiratory muscle training on diaphragm thickness, inspiratory muscle strength, and shoulder pain in adult tennis players with non-specific shoulder pain. This is a single-blind, randomized controlled clinical trial. The intervention will last for 8 weeks. Patients with non-specific shoulder pain will be randomly assigned to one of two groups. The experimental group will undergo specific inspiratory muscle training, while the control group will receive no specific training intervention. Measurements of diaphragm thickness, inspiratory muscle strength, and shoulder pain will be taken before and after the intervention.
Precision medicine is defined as "an emerging approach for disease treatment and prevention that takes into account individual variability in genes, environment, and lifestyle for each person" by the Precision Medicine Initiative. Patients have different response to different treatment modalities, and sore/pain medicine is no exception. In our experience, low-level laser (LLL), ultrasound, and prolotherapy can reduce sore /pain through different genetic pathway. Whether the therapeutic effect is controlled by the genetic variants of those sore /pain related genes or not, is still in debate. The aims of this study are (1) To set up next generation sequencing (NGS)-based approach to find genetic variants which can determine the response of sng/pain treatment modalities and the phenotype of idiopathic scoliosis. (2) To find possible metabolomics and proteomic markers of sng/pain. (3) To determine the algorithm of precision medicine for sng/pain control via the genetic markers. Investigators will recruit 80 myofascial pain participant and 80 idiopathic scoliosis participant from Department of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, National Taiwan University Hospital Bei-Hu Branch in 2023 and 2025. The myofascial pain participant participants will receive LLL, ultrasound, and prolotherapy, and the therapeutic effect will be recorded. The clinical trial will evaluate the Sng / pain (VAS) and muscle tone of the idiopathic scoliosis participant. The blood and urine samples from the first, the second, and the third visits will be analyzed by next generation sequencing, and mass spectrometry to find the possible biomarker in 2024 and 2025. Investigators expect to develop the individualized treatment plan by means of these biomarkers. Hopefully, the results will be widely applied in the field of sore /pain medicine.
The purpose of this research study is to determine if the effectiveness of a single injection of CTM Boost in the treatment of patients with rotator cuff tendinopathy (RCT) is as effective as a single injection of platelet rich plasma (PRP) in reducing the symptoms of RCT.
Based on the available literature, application of percutaneous electrical nerve stimulation interventions targeting peripheral nerves (also called percutaneous neuromodulation) has shown positive effects for improving pain-related and functional outcomes in musculoskeletal chronic pain. Studies investigating the use of this intervention for the shoulder are lacking.
Background: Chronic shoulder pain (CSP) is a musculoskeletal disease characterized by pain lasting more than 3 months. Purpose: This study aimed to determine whether pre-treatment injection in CSP treatment contributes to pain, functionality and quality of life. Methods: A total of 110 patients who met the inclusion criteria of the study were divided into 2 groups (55 patients in each group). A standard 15-session physical therapy program (hot pack, transcutaneous electric nerve stimulation(TENS), US and therapeutic exercises) was applied to all patients in both groups. Suprascapular Nerve Block was applied to Group I before treatment. Assessments were made using VAS-Pain, Shoulder Pain and Disability Index (SPADI) and The Nottingham Health Profile (NHP) before and at the end of the treatment and in the posttreatment 3th months.
High Induction Magnetic Field Therapy is a therapeutic method that uses high-intensity fields (up to 2.5 T) that produce high current density in exposed tissue. While there are studies in the literature on devices with 2.5 T, there is no research on the effect of 4 T. Magnetic field application contributes significantly to the healing process. It is an easier, cheaper, and more comfortable application. The magnetic field has been clinically proven to be safe. It is a practical, non-invasive method to induce cell and tissue modifications, correcting selected pathological conditions through magnetic application. The aim of the study is to investigate whether High Induction Magnetic Field therapy applied in addition to conservative treatment in patients with shoulder pain makes a difference compared to conservative treatment alone.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of adding pulsed radiofrequency (PRF) modality to suprascapular nerve injection with ultrasound glenohumeral steroid in chronic shoulder pain patients focusing on both changes in pain and function scores
