Active clinical trials for "Acute Pain"

This study aims to assess the pharmacokinetic profile of a new paracetamol formulation (paracetamol Uniflash 125mg/1.25mL) for buccal use after single dose.

The purpose of this study is to assess whether listening to music during surgery has an effect on pain or anxiety after surgery.

All patients with acute lesions that attend the orthopedic and trauma center of the ABC medical center are invited to participate in the study. Those that meet the inclusion criteria and later sign an informed consent are randomized to receive 10 ml of a solution with ropivacaine at 7.5% and 2.0% intraarticular for the first 5 minutes after the end of surgery (closing of surgical wounds). Both the patient, the physician who applies it and the evaluator of outcomes remain blinded to the dose of ropivacaine the patient receives. Two hours after the end of the surgery, while the patient is in his room, the presence of pain is evaluated by a visual analog scale (VAS), while the patient is asked to flex and extend his knee. The result is quantified continuously, to later categorize the pain in none to slight pain (0-3 points) and moderate-severe pain (4-10 points). All the information is recorded on established forms in the clinical file (general data), that includes the variables of interest for the study, and is reported by the physicians after standardization of all those in charge with collecting information to comply with the conceptual and operative operationalization of the variables described in the research protocol. In addition to the evaluation of pain, the administration of opioids to patients for necessary reasons (presence of pain) by the physicians in charge is recorded. It is hoped that, in patients with knee arthroscopy for acute lesion, there is a difference in the frequency of moderate-severe pain of 30% in the post-operative (frequency of 37.5% in patients with ropivacaine at 2% and frequency of 7.5% in patients with ropivacaine at 7.5%).

Obesity has become one of the world's leading health problems. It is known that obesity causes many diseases and negatively affects the quality of life. For this reason, many conditions that are thought to be effective in obesity and concern the quality of life of patients have been scientifically researched and continue to be investigated. One of them is postoperative pain. Although there are studies stating that there is no relationship between body mass index (BMI) and postoperative pain, when the literature data is examined, it is thought that obesity is a risk factor for postoperative pain and changes pain sensitivity and analgesic needs of patients. There are also studies in the literature stating that the level of postoperative pain increases in parallel with each unit increase in BMI. After thoracic surgery, many analgesic methods have been suggested, including thoracic epidural analgesia (TEA), thoracic paravertebral block (TPVB), intercostal nerve blocks (ICSB), erector spina plane block (ESPB), serratus anterior plane block (SAPB). This study will compare the effects of BMI on postoperative pain in patients undergoing TPVB for postoperative analgesia and thoracoscopic surgery.

This will be a double blind randomized control trial in men and women with urinary urge incontinence that are undergoing outpatient operative cystoscopy for Onabotulinumtoxin A chemo denervation as third line therapy for overactive bladder (OAB) or urinary urge incontinence (UUI). Subjects will be identified by the University of Rochester Urologists and Urogynecologists participating in the study who currently oversee urinary urge incontinence care. Subjects will be randomized into two groups. One group will be undergoing the cystoscopy with transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) for analgesia and the second group will have cystoscopy with placebo TENS.

The primary aims of total knee replacement are improvement in functional activities and reduce pain due to degenerated knee joints. However, there are around 20-30% of patients would develop significant pain problem despite uncomplicated total knee replacement. It accounts for major post-operative problems and burdens. Dexamethasone is glucocorticoid which is associated with anti-inflammatory response. It is well known to have prophylaxis effect for post-operative nausea and vomiting. Perioperative single dose of systemic dexamethasone have shown to be useful for reduction in pain and cumulative opioid consumption. Meta-analysis from De Oliveira et al supports that dexamethasone (up to 0.2 mg/kg) is a safe and effective multimodal pain strategy after surgical procedures. However, this dose recommendation is not surgery specific. It is essential to have more RCTs evaluating the optimal dose of steroid for pain management after hip and knee surgery.

The study is aimed to evaluate the analgesic efficacy of TRAM.HCl/DKP.TRIS 75mg/25mg oral fixed drug combination in comparison with TRAM.HCl /paracetamol 75mg/650mg in the treatment of moderate to severe acute pain.

The repetitive motions associated with active life and many sports can increase the wear and tear to the joints that leads to decrease in flexibility and joint pain finally heading its way to osteoarthritis. Activities such as jumping, running can wear away the cartilage that supports and cushions the joints of hands and knees, causing bones to rub against each other. Injuries stemming from repetitive motions can also cause and worsen the joint pain. Joint pain is discomfort that arises from any joint . Irrespective of the underlying mechanisms, joint pain usually originates in activation of nociceptors, or free nerve endings. Complex neuronal activation occurs, which involves not only local sensitization of joint nociceptors but also modifications in central pain pathways. Even though, the numerous pharmacological interventions are available for joint pain, there is much debate amongst clinicians about the best approach to the treatment of joint pain. NSAIDs which is frequently used for treatment in such cases, carries concerns related to gastro-intestinal system, cardiovascular system as well as central nervous system . Hence there is a need of a safer alternative treatment option for relieving acute joint pain which is comparable to the modern medicines, without posing concerns to the subject's general well being. Herbs are known to be used since ages in traditional literature and do not pose any potential health concern. Inspite of such positive attributes herbs are not employed in treatment of acute pains as there is lack of evidence proving the same. In order to address the need of the hour Enovate Biolife has invented a novel poly herbal formulation E-OA-07 (Lanconone). Lanconone has been studied previously in patients with osteoarthritis has been proven efficacious . It has a good history of marketing and is sold in the United States, with no reported adverse event related to the product. However there is no concrete evidence proving the product's acute pain relieving dynamics, hence the current study has been employed to comprehend the effect of lanconone in joint acute pain.

Randomized clinical trial, controlled, double-blind, parallel two-arm.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the safe of 40% Dextrose oral administration on blood glucose concentration and to reducing of pain before painful procedures on healthy term neonate 72 hours aged.
