Active clinical trials for "Pain, Postoperative"

This is a prospective, randomized control trial to compare SPANK block combined with adductor canal block to adductor canal block alone in treatment of post-operative pain after total knee arthroplasty. The primary outcome is pain control, which will be measured throughout the post-operative course using morphine equivalents of opioid analgesics used during the first 24 hours after surgery. Secondary outcomes include pain scores recorded at 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, and 24 hours post-operatively, cumulative pain score, incidence of post-operative nausea and vomiting, and extent of motor blockade. The study will aid in answering the question of whether SPANK block is an effective adjunct in preventing pain and decreasing opioid requirement after TKA.

The aim of the study is to investigate the effect of preoperative epidural dexmedetomidine compared to dexamethasone on postoperative pain control, analgesic consumption and oxydative stress response in patients undergoing thoracic surgery

Midline laparotomy is commonly used in emergency and elective cancer surgery and patients need effective and safe pain treatment after this type of surgery. Nowadays modern anticoagulant therapy may prevent use of central regional blocks in pain management. Therefore in the present study the efficacy and safety of rectus sheath analgesia is studied using different administration techniques. The primary aim is the efficacy of the rectus sheath analgesia measured with pain ratings and the amount rescue opioid used. Secondary aims were concentrations of local anesthetic, rescue opioid and satisfaction to analgesia method used.

Major abdominal surgeries are associated with severe abdominal pain, which can affect respiratory and cardiac functions, if insufficiently managed. This increases the incidence of post-operative morbidity. The objective of this study was to detect the efficacy and safety of magnesium sulphate as an adjuvant to the analgesia offered by local anesthetic in ultrasound guided TAP block in patients undergoing total abdominal hysterectomy.

In cases of laparoscopic hysterectomy , women were randomized to two groups: ropivacaine ( vaginal wound infiltration analgesia) vs. control group. Results regarding postoperative pain and need of oxycodone.

Video assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) is a type of minimally invasive thoracic surgery (MITS) procedure used for diagnosis or treatment of chest pathologies (pulmonary, mediastinal, chest wall). Most main procedures traditionally performed by open thoracotomy can be performed with smaller incisions using video support. While being less invasive in comparison to open surgery options, thoracoscopic surgery may damage the intercostal nerve and damages muscles. Also it provokes soft tissue edema at the incision area. Therefore, pain can be more intense than expected after thoracoscopic procedures. Post-operation pain is not just an acute problem; 20% of the patients develop chronic incision pain after a thoracic surgery. particiants hypothesis is that continue ESP block catheter application is non-inferior than epidural catheter application in the first post-operative 48 hours regarding post-operative pain relief. The purpose of this study is to invertigate the effects of TEA and ESPB on post-operative pain in patients undergoing VATS.

The aim of this randomized clinical trial was to compare the potential effects of resin-based and bio ceramic sealers on the occurrence and intensity of postoperative pain in patients with asymptomatic apical periodontitis (AAP) .

Knee surgeries are associated with severe postoperative pain. Blocking the femoral nerve (or saphenous nerve) in the adductor canal is increasingly used for knee analgesia. It carries potential benefits that encourage anesthesiologists to do it. It has a motor sparing property. Injection of local anesthetics in this lengthy canal that contains a variable amount of connective or fibrous tissue might lead to a patchy distribution of local anesthetics. Thus, the possibility of incomplete block of the saphenous nerve (most important nerve in knee innervations) cannot be excluded.

The aim of this study is to clinically compare the efficacy of intraoral cryotherapy versus intracanal cryotherapy after single visit root canal therapy in lower molars with irreversible pulpitis and symptomatic apical periodontitis

The objective of this study is to examine the effectiveness of mindfulness/meditation using the Headspace App on post-operative pain and opioid consumption in patients after arthroscopic rotator cuff repairs, biceps tenodesis, and Mumford procedures.
