Active clinical trials for "Pain, Postoperative"

Single-blinded, randomized preliminary study evaluating the effects of electroacupuncture for postoperative pain relief in patients with distal radius fracture. Distal radius fracture is extremely common, and it is about 10% of all fractures in the human body. Therefore, the distal radius is the most frequently fractured part of the upper limbs of the human body. Once the fracture occurs, internal fixation is the main surgical procedure. The postoperative analgesic method is generally oral or injection analgesic. In recent years, electroacupuncture(EA) has been widely used to relieve pain after surgery, and many studies have confirmed that it is effective. However, there is no evaluation of analgesic efficacy after the surgery of distal radius fracture. Therefore, it is hoped that the efficacy of EA for analgesia after the surgery of distal radius fracture is demonstrated by this study. And, the investigators also hope the investigators can reduce the use of painkillers through EA. Methods: It is expected that 30 patients will be randomly assigned to the following groups: EA group,EA at points; non-point group, EA at non-points, control group without EA EA group:EA at points after surgery non-point group: EA at non-points after surgery Control group: no EA

A prospective, double blinded, single center, randomized controlled study to evaluate the efficacy of caffeine in combination with acetyl salicylic acid (ASA) in the management of postoperative pain in patients undergoing total joint arthroplasty.

Controlling pain after hip replacement surgery improves comfort and partient satisfaction. Pain after hip replacement has traditionally been managed using systemic pain medications including acetaminophen and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. A recent Cochrane review demonstrated that compared to systemic analgesia alone, peripheral nerve blocks reduce postoperative pain with moderate-quality evidence. Pericapsular Nerve Group block is a new technique allowing local anesthetic diffusion to femoral, obturator and accessory obturator nerves and providing a good analgesic effect for hip fracture surgery. Investigators hypothesized that the PENG block could be an interesting alternative to systemic analgesiscs for pain control after total hip replacement.

This study investigates the effectiveness of the erector spinae plane block (ESPB) in pain management of patients undergoing PNL.

The purpose of this study is to assess efficacy of erector spinae plane block (ESP) for postoperative pain management in cardiac surgery patients.

This is a randomized, double-blinded study to evaluate the analgosedative effect of ketamine in a surgical intensive care unit. The patients who will receive continuous fentanyl infusion for either pain control or sedation will be recruited in this trial. Fentanyl will be titrated with initial loading doses of 20 mcg until the numeral rating scale(NRS) less than 4 or critical care pain observation tool (CPOT) less than 3 or Richmond agitation sedation score (RASS) -2-0. Then the patients will be randomised in to receive saline infusion in control group (Group C) or ketamine infusion in ketamine group (Group K). Ketamine will be administered with an initial bolus of 0.3 mg/kg followed by a perfusion of1.5 mcg/kg/min during the first 48 h. The dose of fentanyl will be protocolized adjusted according to NRS or CPOT or RASS.

Pectoral nerve block provides a good alternative to epidural or paravertebral block with a lower risk for the patient and that is shown as an optimal anesthetic option with reduction in postoperative pain, anesthetic and opioid consumption. The main objective of this study is to evaluate the quality of the perioperative analgesia of the PECS block in patients electively escalated for the accomplishment of mastectomy under general anesthesia.

This study is designed to investigate the effect of magnesium sulfate added to levobupivacaine in continuous femoral nerve block following total knee arthroplasty.

This project proposes to compare epidural versus spinal anesthesia in patients having liver resection surgery. The investigators hypothesize that spinal anesthesia will result in improved blood pressure control postoperatively and reduce the amount of intravenous fluids required after surgery. Spinal anesthesia is expected to provide the same pain control benefits as epidurals, with faster recovery of function. Spinal anesthesia may be a simple and effective way to improve and enhance the recovery in the increasing number of patients requiring liver resection.
