A Single-arm Study to Evaluate Safety and Effectiveness of VX-548 for Acute Pain
PainThe purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of VX-548 in treating acute pain.
The Effectiveness of Patient-tailored Treatment in Patients With (Sub)Acute Neck Pain
Neck PainAcute Pain2 moreThe purpose of the present study is to examine if a patient-tailored treatment program has a better effect on pain and disability than a non-patient tailored treatment or wait and see approach in patients with (sub)acute (recurrent) NSNP. A secondary goal is to evaluate the global perceived effect, treatment adherence, recurrence, work absenteeism and medication use. All interventional treatment arms will consist of a treatment part in a clinical practice setting, under supervision of a trained physiotherapist, and an educational intervention and will be compared to the control group.
Mindfulness Meditation Versus Clinical Hypnosis for Acute, Experimental Pain
Mindfulness MeditationClinical HypnosisThis trial aims to determine the effects and mechanisms (mediators and moderators) of brief training in mindfulness meditation versus clinical hypnosis on acute, experimental pain.
Mid-point Transverse Process to Pleura Block for Breast Cancer Surgery: A Randomized Controlled...
Breast CancerAcute Pain1 moreThis study will compare the analgesic effects of midpoint transverse process to pleura (MTP) block to control as well as thoracic paravertebral block.
A Pilot Trial of Disposable Nitrous Oxide Canisters in Providing Pain Control During Burn Dressing...
BurnsPain1 moreImprovements in burn care have resulted in increased survival. Despite these improved outcomes one of the leading challenges of burn care remains providing adequate analgesia during routine wound care and dressing changes. The traditional use of narcotics is challenging as the therapeutic window between analgesia and suppression of breathing becomes narrow with the intense pain and high doses of narcotics needed for dressing changes.
Intraoperative Clonidine for Postoperative Pain Management in Patients Undergoing Surgical Treatment...
EndometriosisPostoperative Pain4 moreThe role of a single dose of intraoperative clonidine on postoperative opioid requirements, pain intensity and opioid-related side effects in patients undergoing surgical treatment for endometriosis remains scarcely explored. A prospective double-blind, randomised controlled trial investigating the effect of a single-dose of intraoperative clonidine in patients undergoing surgical treatment for endometriosis is therefore conducted.
Effect of Fu's Subcutaneous Needling on Postoperative Acute Pain in Patients With Lumbar Spine Surgery....
PainPostoperativeThe goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate Fu's Subcutaneous Needling (FSN) in postoperative pain in patients with Lumbar Spine Surgery (LSS). The main questions it aims to answer are: Is FSN effective for postoperative pain? Dose FSN decrease the tissue hardness after LSS? Dose FSN have the effect of anti-inflammatory after LSS? Participants will receive routine analgesic and FSN after LSS. Researchers will compare Sham group to see if FSN being effective for postoperative pain.
Low Dose Ketamine Infusion for Analgesia in the Emergency Department to Reduce Side Effects
PainAcute1 moreThis will be an intent to treat prospective, double blind, double-dummy, randomized trial. Our primary objective is the reduction of side effects of sub dissociative dose ketamine given by slow intravenous (IV) infusion over 30 minutes vs. 15 minutes in the treatment of acute, severe pain in Emergency Department (ED) patients. The secondary objective will be to maintain adequate pain control (as defined by a Visual Analog Scale (VAS) score of ≤ 5cm) at 30 minutes for both groups.
Arnica and the Management of Pain in Acute Musculoskeletal Extremity Injuries
PainMuscle2 moreIn the Emergency Department, there is no standard of care for pain medication distribution for children with an acute musculoskeletal injury when there is no fracture present. Currently, ibuprofen is a favorable choice for the treatment, but studies have shown concern for delayed healing activity associated with NSAIDs like Ibuprofen. Homeopathic Arnica Montana is a well-established complimentary medicine and may provide a good alternative for managing acute pain from musculoskeletal injuries, especially in children, given the palatability and rarity of side effects. This study aims to compare usual care vs. usual care plus Arnica 1M* (oral) or the placebo for management of pain in acute musculoskeletal extremity injuries without fracture by utilizing a double-blind clinical trial design. The primary outcome is to determine if subjects use less ibuprofen when given Arnica 1M.
Mobilization With Movement in Distal Radial Fractures
PainAcute Pain1 moreDistal radius fractures (DRF) are the most common upper extremity disorders encountered in clinical practice. With an understanding of the mechanics of distal radius fractures, surgical intervention, and bone healing, the therapist can modify the therapy program according to the patient's individual needs. The therapeutic process is begun in the crucial stage of bone healing during fracture immobilization. By addressing edema reduction and early range of motion of the uninvolved joints, most problems can be avoided before cast or fixator removal. Rehabilitation following the immobilization period should focus on regaining wrist movements provided that earlier problems have been addressed properly. During the rehabilitative process, the therapist can incorporate scar management, modalities, joint mobilization, active and passive range of motion, splinting, and strengthening to maximize the patient's functional result. Massage and mobilization techniques are used in the treatment of DRF due to their analgesic effects. The painless mobilization with movement technique (MWM, developed by Brian Mulligan) is a manual therapy method applies to correct the limitation of movement in the joint and to relieve pain and functional disorders. Many studies have shown that MWM technique provides faster and momentary painless joint movement compared to other physical therapy modalities. The patient group with DRF has a large place in the general population and long treatment processes cause both labour loss and economic loss. Therefore, this study aimed to examine the effectiveness of MWM technique in cases with distal radius fractures.
