Active clinical trials for "Acute Pain"

To find out if a drug called tapentadol administered by mouth safely relieves pain in children. Look at the amount of tapentadol in the blood after a single oral dose. Tapentadol oral solution for children is still being tested and is not yet registered. Tapentadol tablets are effective in treating both acute and chronic pain in adults. This trial will help to understand how tapentadol oral solution works in children.

This is a dose-finding study to determine if the sublingual administration of the Sufentanil NanoTab is safe and effective in the treatment of post-operative pain.

The purpose of the study is to compare pain control after robotic hysterectomy surgery using either liposomal bupivacaine or Bupivacaine when injected during a transversus abdominis plane (TAP) block. Robotic hysterectomy is when a patient is electively having robotic assisted removal of one's uterus. Both medications liposomal bupivacaine and Bupivacaine are standard of care in these types of surgeries.

Inadequate pain management is a common problem encountered in ED settings. Pain relief medications use is often limited by their side effects. Evidence suggests that non pharmacologic pain relief techniques such as acupuncture can play a central role to treat pain in acute conditions, but their application is still scarce.

This study investigate the effect of addition morphine to locally instillation bupivacaine on developing chronic neuropathic pain acute postoperative pain after breast cancer surgery and on the probability of developing chronic neuropathic pain.

The MR308-3502 study is a multicenter double-blind, randomised, placebo- and active comparator-controlled study in female subjects to evaluate the efficacy and safety of MR308 with acute pain after TAH or STAH (total or subtotal abdominal hysterectomy).

Introduction: Ketamine has been well studied for its efficacy as an analgesic agent. However, intranasal (IN) administration of ketamine has only recently been studied in the emergency setting. Objective: To elucidate the efficacy and adverse effects of a sub-dissociative dose of IN Ketamine compared to IV and IM morphine. Methods: A single-center, randomized, prospective, parallel clinical trial of efficacy and safety of IN ketamine compared to IV and IM morphine for analgesia in the emergency department (ED). A convenience sample of 90 patients aged 18-70 experiencing moderate-severe acute traumatic pain (≥80mm on 100mm Visual Analog Scale [VAS]) were randomized to receive either 1.0mg/kg IN ketamine, 0.1mg/kg IV MO or 0.15mg/kg IM MO. Pain relief and adverse effects were recorded for 1 hour post-administration. Primary Outcomes: The primary outcome was efficacy of IN ketamine compared to IV and IM MO, measured by "time-to-onset" (defined as a ≥15mm pain decrease on VAS), as well as time to and degree of maximal pain reduction.

In this double blinded randomized controlled study, the pupillary dilation reflex is used for as a nociceptive indicator for opioid administration during elective surgery under general anesthesia.

Sparing the phrenic nerve by administering ultrasound-guided low volume superior trunk block (STB) and interscalene block (ISB) for arthroscopic shoulder surgery (labral repair, stabilization, rotator cuff repair).

The goal of this research is to investigate the impact of changing opioid analgesic prescribing defaults on the quantity of opioids prescribed for acute non-cancer pain in adult dentistry settings. We will change prescribing defaults for select short-acting opioid analgesics including immediate release oxycodone and hydrocodone as well as codeine and tramadol, including their co-formulations with acetaminophen. In a cluster-randomized trial of three Montefiore Medical Center dentistry sites, we will evaluate the impact of this intervention on patient-level outcomes using 18 months of data (6 months pre-intervention and 12 months post-intervention).
