Active clinical trials for "Nociceptive Pain"

A study to investigate the role of F-18 sodium fluoride in localizing the pain generator in participants with chronic nociceptive musculoskeletal low back ache and to study the use of PET/CT guided robotic arm assisted injection for targeted injection of a combination of corticosteroid and local anesthetic for pain palliation.

The aim of this study will be to investigate the effect of a continuous infusion of low dose esmolol on intraoperative and postoperative opioid consumption, as well as on postoperative recovery and chronic pain

The aim of this double blind randomized study will be to investigate the effect of an opioid-free anesthesia regimen with a mixture of lidocaine and ketamine in the same syringe versus remifentanyl analgesia in cervical spine surgery.

The aim of this double blind randomized study will be to investigate the effect of an opioid-free anesthesia regimen with a mixture of dexmedetomidine-lidocaine-ketamine in the same syringe versus remifentanil analgesia in lumbar spine surgery

The aim of this double-blind randomized study will be to evaluate the effect an intravenous infusion of magnesium has on recovery outcomes after elective laparoscopic cholecystectomy

The aim of this study will be to investigate the effect of an opioid-free anesthesia regimen with a mixture of dexmedetomidine-lidocaine-ketamine in the same syringe versus fentanyl analgesia in elective thyroidectomies. Recovery parameters and nociception levels throughout the operation will be evaluated

The purpose of this prospective randomized controlled study is to compare the analgesic properties of propofol and sevoflurane using variation of the NOL index and standard monitoring (Heart Rate and Mean Arterial Blood Pressure) when patients under general anaesthesia with either agents are subjected to a standardized painful stimulus (a tetanic stimulation over the ulnar nerve at 70 mA, 100 Hz for 30 seconds).

The aim of this study will be to investigate the effect of an opioid-free anesthesia regimen with a mixture of dexmedetomidine-lidocaine-ketamine in the same syringe versus fentanyl analgesia in elective laparoscopic gynecological surgery

This study evaluates the correlation between NoL index response to standardized stimulus under general anesthesia and the post-operative pain, assessed by opioid consumption and numerical pain scores after video-assisted thoracoscopy (VATS).

Several studies have implicated involvement of sigma-1 receptors (SR1s) in the generation of chronic pain, while others are investigating anti SR1 drugs for treatment of chronic pain. Using [18F]-FTC-146 and positron emission tomography/magnetic resonance imaging (PET/MRI), the investigators hope to identify the source of pain generation in patients with chronic pain. The purpose of this study is to compare the uptake of [18F]FTC-146 in healthy volunteers to that of individuals suffering from chronic pain.
