Active clinical trials for "Pain, Postoperative"

To assess the safety, tolerability, analgesic, efficacy and pharmacokinetics of high dose acetaminophen relative to placebo and low dose acetaminophen relative to placebo over a 24 hour period in patient experiencing moderate to severe pain following the surgical removal of third molar.

Magnesium sulfate has been shown to be useful in many situations in medicine, such as eclampsia prevention and treatment, pulmonary hypertension, arterial pressure, asthma, cardiac arrhythmias and pheochromocytoma. Recently there has been a growing a big interest in this drug as an useful adjuvant in anesthesia, with analgesic and anesthetic sparing effect, antihyperalgesic property and potentialization of the neuromuscular blocker agent effect. On the other hand there has been a growing concern related to opioid administration, such as hyperalgesia, delayed return of intestinal function and the (still controversial) possibility of facilitating effect on tumor growth and metastases in cancer patients. This project is based on a previous randomized, double blind prospective trial (conducted by one of these authors and not yet published) comparing two groups of patients who received general intravenous total anesthesia with propofol in controlled target infusion. The surgical stress index is obtained by the interaction between the interval between heart beats and the amplitude of the photoplethysmography wave, whose algorithm generates a number related to the hemodynamic result of the increase of the sympathetic tone, which has shown to be the most sensitive resource in detecting the imbalance between the stimulus nociceptive and anti-nociception.

The aim of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of pre-emptive analgesia using ibuprofen and paracetamol on reducing post-operative pain following the placement of stainless steel crowns on primary molars compared to placebo

To compare the impact of pericapsular nerve group (PENG) block to intrathecal morphine on postoperative analgesia, motor function and side effects in patients undergoing primary total hip arthroplasty under spinal anesthesia.

In this study, it was aimed to investigate the relationship between postoperative nausea and vomiting, anxiety levels and pain scores in the postoperative period according to dosing and choosing of intravenous fluid type that the patients received in the preoperative period.

Intravenous administration of lidocaine perioperatively after laparotomy for peritonitis could be an interesting alternative by reducing the duration of postoperative ileus, the intensity of pain and the patient's hospital stay, as well as the cost of management in our context of lack of financial, technical and human resources, hence the present study.

The search for new safe and effective methods of pain relief after surgery on large joints is still an urgent problem. The most optimal approach in the treatment of postoperative pain is the use of multimodal analgesia with a different mechanism of action that act on various mechanisms of pain and can include opioids, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), acetaminophen, anticonvulsants, NMDA antagonists, alpha-2-agonists, and sodium and calcium channel blocking agents, as well as local anesthetics. NSAIDs are the most popular and safe means for pain relief. Therefore, a lot of efforts are aimed at increasing the effectiveness of NSAIDs use. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of simultaneously administering two or three NSAIDs, compared to using only one NSAID, for pain relief after surgery on large joints such as hip or knee arthroplasty.

This study is a nationwide cross-sectional survey on pain and satisfaction after total hip arthroplasty (THA). Please find the full protocol uploaded on ClinicalTrials.gov

Inguinal hernia surgery is the most common practice of pediatric surgeons in their clinical practice. As these operations are usually day case procedures, maintaining adequate analgesia is an important component of perioperative care and ERAS protocols. Caudal block, which is one of the analgesic methods used for postoperative pain, is the most frequently used in inguinal hernia surgery and its effectiveness has been proven. Erector spina plane block, which is easy to apply and has a low risk of side effects, is another tool used in the treatment of postoperative pain after inguinal hernia surgery. These are the procedures that are routinely applied in our center with the aim of intraoperative and postoperative effective analgesia.

Postoperative analgesic treatment needs to be improved. Numerous studies suggest that a single dose of Methadone given during surgery significantly ameliorates postoperative pain and reduces postoperative opioid consumption. Perioperative methadone is already used in isolated cases such as patients with chronic pain or patients with high morphine tolerance. However, it is not routinely used in the elderly and fragile, and there is insufficient reliable evidence on this treatment and population. Further investigation is highly relevant and necessary.
