There is a considerable lack of knowledge in everyday surgical practice concerning treatment with a corset after laparotomy, in surgery for incisional hernia or as conservative treatment. The aims are to elucidate effects of corset treatment on patient experience and pain, physiology and abdominal wall strength. Effects of corset treatment after laparotomy will be studied in a randomised trial with the hypothesis that postoperative corset-use improves respiratory physiology and reduce pain. The primary end-point is PeakCoughFlow change, secondary end-points are vital capacity, residual volumes and patient perception as measured by the ventral hernia pain questionnaire (VHPQ) developed by our group. This study is powered for 50 patients. Conclusions from the study are of such a nature that they can be immediately transferred to clinical practice.

Pre- Versus Post-incisional Pregabalin for Postoperative Pain Attenuation and Analgesics Spare in...

Postoperative Pain

Hypothesis No studies considered the comparison of preemptive vs. post-surgery Pregabalin (PGL) only administration. The investigators believe that the administration of PGL preemptively would diminish pain sensation and therefore the need for opioids administration in orthopedic-oncologic patients more effectively than if administered starting postoperatively.

Efficacy of Transdermal Fentanyl Patches in Relief of Acute Postoperative Pain After Mastectomy...

to determine the safety, efficacy and tolerability of transdermal fentanyl in patients undergoing mastectomy, as well as the postoperative consumption of analgesic.

Pudendal Block Versus Penian Block For Circumcision In Children

Regional AnesthesiaPostoperative Pain1 more

The authors study the efficacy of the pudendal versus penile block for the relief of postoperative pain in children receiving ambulatory circumcision. In this prospective, double-blind, randomized, parallel-arm trial, 60 children recruited during the anesthesia consultation will be allocated a general anesthesia with a pudendal block (PUD group) or a penile block (PEN group). Each block will be made with equal parts lidocaine 1% and ropivacaine 0.75% (0.3 ml/kg).

Intravenous Lignocaine Infusion in Laparoscopic Donor Nephrectomy

Postoperative PainRenal Transplantation1 more

Background: Administration of morphine as boluses or via a patient controlled analgesic device (PCA) has been the standard practice for donors after nephrectomy. However, administration of morphine is far from being ideal analgesic as it does not provide optimal dynamic pain relief after major surgery, consistently demonstrate little effect on surgical stress response and organ dysfunction with high incidences of postoperative nausea/vomiting, respiratory depression and sedation. Several studies demonstrated perioperative intravenous lignocaine infusion can improve post-operative pain scores and morphine consumption in abdominal surgery. The aim of this study is to identify the effectiveness of intra-operative lignocaine infusion in lowering postoperative pain and reduce postoperative morphine consumption in patients who undergo laparoscopic donor nephrectomy.

TAP Block With Two Different Doses of Levobupivacaine

PainPostoperative

The aim of the current study is to investigate the effects of two different doses of levobupivacaine in TAP (transversus abdominus plane) block for postoperative management. For this purpose we planned to include 50 children aged between 2 and 12 that will undergo unilateral inguinal surgery. The doses that will be used in the study were within usual dose limits which is stated in prospectus of the study drug.

PECI/SPB vs Intercostal Nerve Block for the Management of Postoperative Pain in Latissimus Dorsi...

Breast Cancer

Regional Anesthesia is a procedure in which numbing medication is injected around nerves that transmit pain from areas involved in a surgery. The objective is to block the nerves so a patient does not feel pain after surgery. Regional nerve blocks offer many advantages over traditional anesthetic techniques, including faster recovery time, fewer side effects and a dramatic reduction in post-surgical pain. The use of regional anesthesia in breast reconstructive surgery, such as the latissimus dorsi flap, has led to major improvements in patient care. Today, the most common regional anesthetic used in latissimus dorsi flap reconstruction is the intercostal nerve block, where numbing medication is injected around the nerves supplying the chest wall. While intercostal nerve blocks have been used successfully in breast surgery, they do not provide a complete nerve block to the chest wall, as there are some nerves that are unaccounted for in the block which can contribute to a patients pain after surgery. The mixed pectoral one / serratus plane block (PECI/SPB) block is another regional nerve block that has been successfully used by anesthesiologists at The Ottawa Hospital and offers a more complete pain blockade than the intercostal nerve block, as it includes more nerves that supply the breast. In addition to this, the intercostal nerve block is a so-called "blind-technique" compared to the PECI/SPB block, which is more accurately guided by ultrasound. Blind techniques are associated with higher failure rates. Both the intercostal nerve block and the PECI/SPB nerve block have been used successfully at the Ottawa Hospital. In this study, the investigators propose a prospective, double blinded, randomized controlled, head to head comparison of the PECI/SPB and intercostal nerve block to determine which block is associated with the best pain blockade and patient satisfaction in lattissimus dorsi flap surgery.

A Comparison of Epidural Block With Adding Sciatic Block to Continuous Femoral Block in Total Knee...

Postoperative Pain

The investigators compared continuous epidural infusion with combined continuous femoral and single-shot sciatic nerve blocks. The primary outcome was the incidence of side effects, and secondary outcomes were pain relief, motor blockade,morphine consumption, and rehabilitation indices.

General Anesthesia vs Paravertebral Block With General Anesthesia For Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy...

PainPostoperative

The incidence of obesity is steadily rising. Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) is an innovative approach to the surgical management of morbid obesity. We will be discussing the effect of adding paravertebral block (PVB) in addition to general anesthesia (GA) vs. GA alone for post operative pain after laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy.
