Active clinical trials for "Pain, Postoperative"

The investigators have recently reported a relationship between pain induced by peripheral venous cannulation and postoperative pain. The purpose of this study is to validate this method of postoperative pain prediction in a larger cohort subjected to different types of surgery.

The TTP block is a novel regional anesthetic technique that shows promise in providing analgesia for anterior chest wall incisions and median sternotomy. The investigators hope to show that by providing the TTP block, there will be reduced early postoperative pain, reduced sedation and shallow breathing, reduced time on breathing machine, leading to an increase in patient comfort and satisfaction. The investigators also hope the decreased need for pain medication and reduced time on the breathing machine will translate into decreased nursing workload.

High-quality analgesia during and following cardiac surgery is infrequently obtained, Sternotomy and thoracotomy is associated with significant pain that resulte in hypoventilation, atelectasis, and hypoxemia,Pain management is rarley a priority in the immediate postoperative care of these patients, who frequently require mechanical ventilation in an intensive care environment

To investigate pre-op peripheral nerve block in reducing peri-op IL-6 level and post-op pain

in this study we are investigating the role of instillation of Bupivacaine through surgical drains at the end of mastectomy surgeries in controlling post operative pain and decreasing their pain killers requirement in the early postoperative period

The trial will estimate post-operative pain management in elective surgical patients using the PMD-200 device. The device measures physiological parameters by placing a non-invasive sensor on a fingertip and displays an objective pain level in a 0-100 scale. The pain level will be estimated before surgery (baseline), after surgery and during administration of parenteral analgesia. Treatment and analgesia will be given according to clinical considerations and standard ward protocols. The device measurements won't influence the treatment.

The specific aims of this study are to compare patient experience with and without a proparacaine drop after povidone iodine.

Laparoscopic cholecystectomy is a common accepted surgical operation with lower morbidity all over the world for gallstone. Although it has low morbidity, postoperative pain is challenging situation like every other operation.

This study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of intravenously administered ibuprofen 400mg and 800 mg q6h for the management of moderate to severe postoperative pain in Chinese population.

Intrathecal morphine causes intense itching which is very bothersome. Nalbuphine antagonizes this effect when given intravenously. This trial is to find out if nalbuphine added to intrathecal morphine has an effect on morphine related pruritus while still maintaining adequate analgesia.
