Active clinical trials for "Pain, Postoperative"

Hip surgeries in pediatrics consider as one of the common nowadays surgeries with sever postoperative pain so pain management is essential to decrease postoperative complications, early mobilization and hospital discharge. Traditional use of opioids is associated with many adverse effects such as sedation, dizziness, nausea, vomiting, constipation and respiratory depression. Previous studies reported that Quadratus Lumborum (QL) Block and Pericapsular Nerve Group (PENG) Block are effective postoperative analgesia in hip surgeries. In this study we will compare between QL block and PENG Block for effective postoperative analgesia to reduce opioids consumption and subsequently avoid opioid-related adverse effects, early mobilization and early hospital discharge.

The purpose of this study is to compare quality of recovery as well as peri-operative systemic opiates use and pain scores in patients undergoing laparoscopic or robotic hysterectomy when local anesthetic versus Quadratus Lumborum nerve block (QL-2) is added to the standard pain management.

To test the hypothesis that preoperative injections along the levator ani muscles and pudendal nerve with bupivacaine and dexamethasone improve pain control after vaginal apical reconstructive surgery. A three-arm, double-blinded, randomized controlled trial of a total of 75 women will be performed. The study population will be adult women (>18 years of age) with uterovaginal or vaginal vault prolapse who have been scheduled for native tissue vaginal reconstructive surgery which includes an apical support procedure. Participants will be enrolled prior to surgery. The procedure will involved four injection sites: the bilateral levator ani muscles via a transobturator approach and bilateral pudendal nerves via a transvaginal approach. Random assignment will occur to one of three study arms: combined arm (20 milliliters bupivacaine/dexamethasone solution divided between the 4 injection sites), bupivacaine arm (20 milliliters bupivacaine divided between the 4 injection sites), or placebo arm (20 milliliters saline divided between the 4 injection sites).

The moderate-to-severe pain many patients experience following orthopedic surgery is often treated with opioids, which are associated with side effects such as nausea/vomiting, sedation, and respiratory depression (and a risk of abuse). Potent site-specific analgesia with fewer side effects may be provided with a "continuous peripheral nerve block," which involves the percutaneous insertion of a catheter adjacent to the peripheral nerve(s) supplying a surgical site. Local anesthetic is introduced via the catheter. However, there are major problems with continuous nerve blocks that have dramatically limited their use outside academic centers. Percutaneous peripheral nerve stimulation (PNS) or "nerve modulation" is an alternative method of pain control involving the insertion of an electrical lead through an introducing needle-obviating an open surgical incision for placement-followed by the introduction of electric current to produce analgesia. This modality has been used to treat chronic pain, but it has not been evaluated with a randomized, controlled study when applied to acute pain management (post-surgical analgesia). This temporary therapy has multiple theoretical benefits over existing analgesics, such as a lack of systemic side effects (e.g., nausea, respiratory depression), an absence of induced muscle weakness, and a reduced risk of adverse events (e.g. infection). The purpose of the proposed randomized, double-masked, placebo-controlled, crossover, feasibility study is to explore the possibility of treating postoperative pain with ultrasound-guided percutaneous PNS and, if so, to help power a subsequent definitive randomized, controlled trial.

This study evaluates the effect of larger or smaller opioid prescriptions following minor surgery on the amount of narcotic used, patient reported satisfaction, refill requests, and leftover narcotic.

Our primary aim is to determine whether licorice gargling provides meaningful analgesia after oral surgery. Specifically, we propose to test the primary hypothesis that gargling with licorice solution reduces pain after oral surgery more than gargling with sugar water. Because effective analgesia can reduce pain and/or opioid consumption, we will jointly evaluate verbal response pain scores and overall morphine consumption considering licorice to be beneficial only if it proves non-inferior on both measures and superior on at least one.

The purpose of this study is to determine how well two different methods of administrating Tylenol reduce pain and improve patient satisfaction after total hip replacement (THR) surgery. The methods of administration are orally, via a pill that is to be swallowed, and intravenously. Our aim is to determine whether oral or intravenous administration of Tylenol will reduce opioid consumption and opioid-related side effects after THR.

ECS is a very common procedure. A 1-year retrospective survey revealed a vast opioid consumption among the new mothers of approximately (mean±SD) 35±25 mg of oral morphine in the first 24 postoperative hours despite a multimodal analgesic regimen. The adverse effects of morphine are well known and include postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV), itching, fatigue, constipation, confusion, respiratory depression and delayed mobilization. These adverse effects are unsound for the new mothers as well as the breast-fed, newborn children. This study aims to evaluate the efficacy of bilateral Transmuscular Quadratus Lumborum (TQL) block in reducing postoperative morphine consumption and pain.

This is a Phase 2b, randomized, double-blind, saline placebo- and active-controlled, multicenter study in subjects undergoing primary unilateral total knee arthroplasty (TKA) to evaluate the analgesic efficacy, safety, and pharmacokinetics (PK) of HTX-011 administered via infiltration to the surgical site.

The study evaluates the efficacy of local anesthestic application through the catheter in the surgical wound for the postoperative pain relief after minimally invasive aortic valve surgery. The patients will be enrolled in two different groups according to the protocol of the local anesthetic and saline administration: group: continous infusion of the local anesthetic plus bolus on demand group: continous infusion of saline plus bolus on demand For all patients metamizol every 12 hours plus bolous of piritramid on demand.
