Comparison of Analgesic Efficacy of ESP Block and Caudal Block in Patients Undergoing Hypospadias...
Post Operative PainHypospadiasThe goal of clinical trial is to compare in of analgesic efficacy of sacrale erector spinae plane block and caudal block in patients undergoing hypospadias surgery.We will include children between the ages of 6 months and 7 years in the 1st and 2nd categories in the ASA. In our study, we seek answers to the following questions: Which of the sacral erector spinae plane block and caudal block applied to patients undergoing hypospadias surgery has higher postoperative analgesic efficiency than the other? Which of the sacral erector spinae plane block and caudal block applied to patients undergoing hypospadias surgery is superior in duration of analgesia? After general anesthesia is administered to the participants, one of the 2 blocks will be administered in a randomized manner and the relevant data will be recorded.Our research will be conducted in a single center as a prospective randomized controlled study. It was planned to include 60 patients from the ASA I-II pediatric patient group aged between 6 months and 7 years, who will undergo hypospadias surgery in our hospital between October 2022 and October 2023, and randomization will be done by closed envelope method. Two groups with sacral ESP and caudal block will be formed, each with 30 patients.
Efficacy of Acetaminophen-ibuprofen Combination on the Postoperative Pain After Thyroidectomy
Thyroid DiseaseAcetaminophen and ibuprofen has been safely used for a long time and reduces postoperative pain and opioid dosages. Investigators are planning to compare the efficacy of 1) acetaminophen only and 2) acetaminophen and ibuprofen combination at postoperative pain after thyroidectomy.
Does ESP Block Reduce Pain and Opiates Consumption After Surgery
Post Operative PainRegional Anesthesia Morbidity2 moreThe patients will be randomly assigned to standard therapy or standard therapy+ESP nerve block. After surgery pain level and narcotic consumption will be measured, and vital signs and side effects will bo monitored for up to 72 hours. 6 months after surgery a phone interview will be conducted to asses chronic pain
3D Evaluation of Postoperative Edema After Third Molar Surgery
MolarThird5 moreSurgical removal of third molars is recognized as one of the most frequent procedures performed in oral surgery. Literature is rich in studies attempting to demonstrate the benefit of corticosteroids in third molar surgery, however the variety of methods, doses, routes and timing of administration has hampered the standardization of their use in light of best evidence. Also the use of 3D facial superimposition methodology to measure and analyze facial swelling after third molar surgery is a relatively new and promising technology.
Optimal Effective Local Anesthetic Volume for Pain Relief Using Brachial Plexus Block
Post Operative PainProspective, patient-blinded study utilizing a novel Continuous Reassessment Method that concomitantly considers both block success and block side effects (lung dysfunction) for brachial plexus nerve blocks.
Efficacy of Bupivacain Local Infiltration for the Management of Pain During Cesarean Section
PainPostoperativeThis study aims to evaluate the effect of local administration of bupivacain in the cesarean section incision for postoperative pain control, using the visual analogue pain scale (VAS) and assessing the need for rescue analgesia after surgery.
Intraoperative Methadone for Postoperative Pain in Patients Undergoing Tonsillectomy
Postoperative PainA randomized controlled trial evaluating the efficacy and safety of single-shot intraoperative methadone for postoperative pain in patients undergoing tonsillectomy. Fentanyl is used as an active comparator
Comparison of Conventional and Cooled Radiofrequency of the Genicular Nerves in Patients With Chronic...
Knee OsteoarthritisPersistent Postsurgical Pain1 moreChronic knee pain remains a disabling disease despite current treatment strategies. There is an increase in the prevalence of osteoarthritis (OA) of the knee in the general population, presently affecting approximately 450,000 individuals in Belgium. A total knee replacement is a viable alternative for severe knee OA that does not respond to conservative therapy. Unfortunately, up to 53% of patients who undergo a total knee replacement develop persistent post-surgical pain (PPSP). There is currently no effective therapy for PPSP. A radiofrequency (RF) treatment applies high frequency current on the nerve responsible for pain conduction, resulting in an interruption of the transmission of pain. This can be applied to the nerves innervating the knee joint - the superolateral, superomedial and inferomedial genicular nerves - and could be an alternative, minimally invasive treatment for patients with knee OA who fail conservative treatments and for patients with PPSP. Data from the recent literature indicates that this treatment leads to a reduction of pain intensity and could result in an improvement of knee function, of the psychological state of the individual, and finally in an increase in health-related quality of life. Furthermore, RF of the genicular nerves could help avoid or delay a total knee replacement therefore potentially contributing to cost reduction. Both cooled and conventional RF treatments are reported in the literature to improve pain. The use of water to cool the RF electrodes results in an increased lesion size by removing heat from adjacent tissue, allowing power delivery to be increased. As a consequence, cooled RF could result in a higher chance of success and longer duration of effect. Until now, the studies performed on cooled RF are industry initiated and a direct comparison between conventional, cooled and a sham procedure is lacking. The aim of the COGENIUS trial is to investigate the effect of the two types of RF treatment on individuals experiencing chronic knee pain that is resistant to conservative treatments. For this purpose, the efficacy and cost-effectiveness of cooled and conventional RF will be compared to a sham procedure in patients suffering from knee OA and PPSP after total knee replacement.
Application of Celiac Plexus Block in Postoperative Analgesia of Upper Abdominal Surgery
PainPostoperative1 moreThis subject intends to explore the value of intraoperative celiac plexus block in postoperative acute pain management and its promoting effect on patients' rapid recovery during epigastric laparotomy through a randomized controlled trial.
Efficiency And Quality In Post-Surgical Pain Therapy After Discharge
Opioid UseOpioid Dependence2 moreFollowing inpatient surgery, more than 80% of patients are prescribed opioids for use after discharge, yet up to 90% of patients report leftover opioids, and only 16% maximize non-opioid therapy. The proposed research seeks to test a provider-facing decision support tool and a patient-facing smartphone app to reduce the amounts of opioids prescribed and taken following discharge, while ensuring effective treatment of pain after surgery.
