Active clinical trials for "Pain, Postoperative"

The aim of this study is to evaluate postoperative pain after endodontic instrumentation using rotation, reciprocation and adaptive motion.

The use of non-narcotic multi-modal analgesia to be used in the pre-operative, peri-operative and post-operative period to reduce or potentially eliminate narcotic usage following scrotal surgery. Research study results have shown that the use of anti-inflammatories in the peri-operative period reduces both pain and narcotic use. The hypothesis is that adding another agent in the multi-modal pathway will further reduce pain and potentially reduce narcotic usage.

The investigators aim to examine the use of IV and oral ketorolac as an adjunctive agent to the standard of care pain protocol for postoperative pain control following ACL reconstruction surgery. The investigators hypothesize that the use of IV and oral ketorolac in addition to the standard of care pain protocol will reduce postoperative opioid consumption following ACL reconstruction surgery.

The goal of this research was to relate the occurrence of post-endodontic pain after single-visit RCT using Balanced Force technique and two reciprocating system when cryotherapy is used. Methodology: All 216 patients had upper or lower molar, premolar or anterior teeth selected for conventional RCT for prosthetic reasons detected with only vital pulps. Of the sample of 216 teeth, were selected to the 3 instrumentation methods. For hand instrumentation, Balanced Force were used. All canals were clean and shaped with hand Flex-R files (fMoyco/Union Broach, York PA, USA). For mechanical shaping, all instruments were used with a micro motor (VDW, Munich Germany). WaveOne and Reciproc instruments. Final irrigation with cold (6oC) 17% EDTA served as a lubricant.

The purpose of this study is to determine if pre-warming of arthroscopic fluid reduces immediate post-surgical pain in hip arthroscopy patients. The investigators hypothesize there will be a significant decrease in the Visual Analog Score (VAS) measured 30 minutes post-operatively in the warmed fluid group compared to the control group. Secondary outcome measures to be collected will include VAS scores 60 minutes after surgery and on post-operative day (POD) one. Additionally, the investigators will collect post-operative temperature measured 30 and 60 minutes post-operatively as well as morphine equivalent dosing in PACU and at the two-week follow up visit.

This study is intends to compare mean postoperative pain scores for 48-hours in patients undergoing Inguinal hernioplasty with and without hernia sac ligation in Department of Surgery, Dow University of Health Sciences & Dr. Ruth K. M. Pfau Civil Hospital Karachi.Half of the patients undergoing inguinal hernioplasty will have their indirect inguinal sacs ligated whereas other half will have non-ligation and inversion of sac.

Patients were randomly allocated to either Tansversus group (T group) and general anesthesia (N group).Patient demographic data, preoperative medical status, left ventricular function, and operative data (total ischemic time, number of grafts) were recorded. The primary outcome of the study was Percentage of patients needed additional doses of morphine . The secondary outcomes included postoperative visual analogue pain scores performed after patient extubation for pain assessment at rest (0 = no pain, 10 = maximum unbearable pain) at time of extubation, 8h, 12 h,18 h and 24 hours postoperatively were recorded, when pain score >4, patients were given morphine 0.05 mg/kg administered by a physician who was blinded to the nature of the study, time needed for first rescue analgesic, postoperative blood pressure and heart rate were recorded immediately on admission then 2 hours, 4 hours, 6 hours, 12 and 24 hours postoperatively, in addition to extubation time, length of ICU stay, the incidence of complications related to the technique such as hemothorax or pneumothorax, arrhythmias, and local anesthetic toxicity were recorded. The end-point was difficult weaning from cardiopulmonary bypass, major postoperative bleeding which required re-exploration or allergy to any agents needed for anesthesia. All complications were managed according to surgical and medical guidelines.

The aim of this study is to clinically compare the incidence of post-operative pain after using rotary glide path file (Neoniti GPS), on post-operative pain when compared to manual glide path preparation in lower molars with asymptomatic non-vital pulp.

The aim of the study is to evaluate whether loco-regional analgesia reduces post operative pain compared to intravenous analgesia, in patients undergoing cardiac surgery in minithoracotomy. All patients will be randomized to receive locoregional analgesia (treatment group) or intravenous analgesia (control group), at the end of the cardiac intervention.

The previous studies have shown that recovery after laparoscopic or vaginal hysterectomy is faster than after abdominal approach. The aim of this study is to evaluate postoperative pain after vaginal or laparoscopic hysterectomy. The primary outcome measurement is opioid consumption.
