Active clinical trials for "Pain, Postoperative"

the objective of the present study was to compare the efficacy of TENS and parasternal block with local anesthetic infiltration in relieving pain during the first 24 h period following median sternotomy.

The investigators' main hypothesis is that in breast reduction surgery, the use of tumescent solution containing both dilute lidocaine and epinephrine will lead to better control of postoperative pain, nausea, vomiting, shorter time through postoperative phases of care, quicker discharge from the hospital and lower numbers of hospital readmissions than the use of tumescent solution containing only dilute epinephrine.

Importance of effective postoperative pain management is well known. The undesired effects of pain can be prevented with multimodal analgesia for the patient. Overall, for cesarean delivery, interaction between the mother and her newborn baby can be provided earlier. Many regional anesthesia techniques can be prefferred after cesarean delivery. Aim of the study is to compare the postoperative analgesia effects of transversus abdominis plane block and rectus sheath block after elective cesarean delivery.

The aim of this prospective, randomized, clinical trial was to evaluate the effect of 1.3% sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) concentration versus 5.25% NaOCl concentration on post-operative pain and medication intake in adult patients with pulp necrosis in mandibular molars.

Randomized, double-blinded, three arm study in adult patients undergoing first time coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) surgery with median sternotomy. The investigators will examine the effects of three fentanyl dosing schemes (high-dose bolus, low-dose bolus, continuous dose) on the area of hyperalgesia and allodynia at 24 and 48h as well as on persisting pain at 3, 6, and 12 months. Additionally, the investigators will measure fentanyl concentrations throughout anesthesia.

Traditionally, pain control methods based on narcotic analgesics have been used to control severe pain after surgery, but this has resulted in side effects such as vomiting, constipation, dizziness, mental confusion due to drugs, and respiratory depression. This slowed the recovery of the patient after surgery and increased the duration of hospitalization, which had a negative impact on the patient 's prognosis. In addition, research has been conducted on the use of various painkillers in a variety of ways over the past decade to reduce the dose of narcotic analgesics and to increase the effectiveness of pain control, since studies of anesthetics and narcotic analgesics have shown immunosuppressive effects. This study investigate the effect of multimodal analgesics for postoperative pain control on immune function amd prognosis in patients undergoing laparoscopic colorectal cancer resection.

The purpose of this study is to assess the effectiveness of pre-operative administration of gabapentin 900 mg in management of acute post-operative pain in patients undergoing oral and maxillofacial surgical procedures.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of preemptive effect of rectus sheath block (RSB) and intercostal nerve block (ICNB) on postoperative visceral pain in laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LLC). After induction of general anesthesia, group of patient is decided randomly. In Group pre, RSB and ICNB are performed with 0.25% Ropivacaine 40ml before the operation. In Group post, RSB and ICNB are performed with 0.25% Ropivacaine 40ml after the operation. Measure the NRS and compare the rescue analgesic dose used at 0, 0.5, 1, 2, 6, 9, 18, and 24 hours after arrival at the recovery room.

Postoperative analgesia in breast surgery is a difficult and overworked issue due to extensive surgery and complex innervation of the breast. Erector spinae plane block (ESB) is a new defined regional anesthesia technique for thoracic analgesia.Main purpose of this study was to evaluate the analgesic effect of ultrasound guided double injection ESB in breast surgery.

The proposed study will be a pilot randomized controlled trial comparing treatment as usual (TAU) to treatment as usual plus a brief Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) intervention (TAU + ACT) with mastectomy and lumpectomy patients identified as at-risk for developing persistent post-operative pain. The ACT intervention is a single individual therapy session scheduled two weeks following surgery. Potential participants will be recruited from the University of Iowa Breast Cancer Clinic. A sample size of n = 30 for each arm will be recruited. An attrition rate of 20% is anticipated so the total N to be recruited for the study is 72 participants. Study measures will consist of self-report questionnaires and medical record data. Data will be collected prior to surgery, one-week after surgery, and 3 months after surgery.
