Active clinical trials for "Pain, Postoperative"

Aim to study the efficacy of co-administered Dexmedetomidine Or Clonidine with Bupivacaine and that of bupivacaine 0.25% alone for Transversus Abdominis Plane (TAP) Block for Postoperative Analgesia in Patients Undergoing Elective Caesarean Section. Group 1: bupivacaine 0.25% + Dexmedetomidine 0.5 mcg/kg (a total volume of 40 ml (20 ml each side) was used for the TAP block.) Group 2: 20 ml bupivacaine+1ug/kg clonidine bilaterally (a total volume of 40 ml (20 ml each side) was used for the TAP Group3: bupivacaine 0.25% + placebo (a total volume of 40 ml (20 ml each side) was used for the TAP A prospective Randomized Interventional double-blind study.

The aim of this work is to compare the hemodynamic and analgesic properties of Dexmedetomidine and Magnesium sulphate infusion in lower abdominal surgery.

Subepithelial connective tissue graft (SCTG) has greater predictability for root coverage and causes minimal discomfort to patient. Although donor site heals with primary intention causing less scar tissue, in some different harvesting procedures primary flap closure may not be achieved due to nature of thick palatal tissues. Some potential complications may occur at donor site such as: necrosis of graft and palatal site, pain, excessive hemorrhage, protracted discomfort, donor site infection and in some cases donor site paresthesia. Platelet rich fibrin (PRF) is a platelet concentrate obtained by a simple procedure that does not require biochemical blood involvement.Based on the known biological effects of PRF, the aim of this study is to evaluate the PRF in the management of soft tissue donor sites in term of bleeding and pain sensation, and to observe the changes in tissue healing after a subepithelial connective tissue graft procedure at palatal donor site.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate and reduce pain and improve quality of life in patients being treated for head and neck cancer with primary tumor resection and bilateral neck dissections. Patients will be randomly assigned to receive either pre-operative pregabalin (Lyrica) or a placebo. Patients and investigators will be blinded to which medication patients receive, and all patients will receive the same postoperative pain medication regimen with appropriate pain treatment as needed. Patients will be asked to fill out surveys prior to surgery, while in the hospital after surgery, and at each follow-up appointment for up to 24 months.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of a common pain medication (gabapentin) on chronic postsurgical pain in pediatric patients who require surgery for idiopathic scoliosis.

Laminoplasty and laminectomy have been used for decades for the treatment of intraspinal space occupying lesions, spinal stenosis, disc herniation, injuries, etc. After these procedures, patients often experience severe postoperative pain at the surgical site. However, current methods of pain control are mostly insufficient. At present, several pain controlling methods are available, to reduce postoperative pain after laminoplasty or laminectomy. Methods for systemic administration include: oral analgesics, intermittent intravenous, intramuscular injections, patient- controlled intravenous analgesia, etc. However, the aforementioned methods may have a lot of side effects, and are usually used after the occurrence of pain and the analgesic effects are sometimes inadequate. Topical administration options use a lower dose of drugs and therefore have less systemic side effects. Pre-emptive injection of local anesthetics can significantly reduce postoperative pain during rest and movement, however, the analgesic effect is maintained for a relatively short period of time. It is necessary to use more cases to explore the other compatibility of drugs with longer duration of action and stronger analgesic effect. Betamethasone as the stereoisomer of dexamethasone is a long-acting corticosteroid, which has long lasting anti-inflammatory properties. Whether betamethasone combined with local anesthetic for laminoplasty or laminectomy has better short-term and long-term effects than the local anesthetic alone has not been reported yet. Therefore, a prospective, randomized, controlled, blinded-endpoint study is needed to compare the postoperative analgesic efficacy of preemptive wound infilteration of ropivacaine alone and betamethasone plus ropivacaine for laminectomy or laminoplasty.

Evaluating the safety and efficacy of EXPAREL (Liposomal Bupivacaine ) for pain control in patients undergoing scheduled cesarean section by giving it either as infiltration in Transversus Abdominis Plane after finishing the procedure or through wound infiltration into the fascia prior to closure of skin

Postoperative pain management in children is still standing as a problem to solve. Effect of quadratus lumborum block has been shown to be a promising technique to overcome postoperative pain in children undergoing low abdominal surgeries. Erector spinae plane block is a new defined relatively safer and easier regional anesthesia technique which could be used for this purpose. Primary aim of this double blinded randomized controlled trial is to compare the analgesic efficacy of this two block techniques in this group of pediatric patients.

In this study the effect of different engine-driven nickel titanium (Ni-Ti) instrumentation systems (OneShape, Revo S and WaveOne) on postoperative dental pain in patients with asymptomatic teeth after a single-appointment root canal retreatment was evaluated.

To determine the clinical effectiveness of combined use of pre-emptive analgesia and long acting anesthesia for pain suppression following dental implant surgery as measured by a validated numerical rating scale and the information related to consumption of post-operative medications.
