Active clinical trials for "Pain, Postoperative"

The LOLIPOP Trial is a large (n=4,300 patients) pragmatic, international, multicentre, prospective, randomised, double blind, placebo-controlled, parallel assessment, safety and effectiveness superiority study.

This study will trial the impact of teaching surgical patients a pain self-management approach to compliment medical post-surgical pain management.

This is a randomized control trial investigating the effects of a preoperative mindfulness intervention on postoperative pain, quality of recovery and stress scores in women undergoing minimally invasive hysterectomy. The mindfulness intervention will be delivered via the application Headspace™. The primary outcome will be pain scores measured on postoperative day one. Secondary outcomes will include quality of recovery scores and perceived stress scores measured on postoperative days 1 and 7, amount of opioid consumed, and dose response between number of sessions and/or numbers of minutes of meditation performed on pain and quality of recovery scores. The study team hypothesizes that mindfulness practiced in the form of meditation delivered via an internet application will lead to reduced pain scores on postoperative day 1.

Although bariatric surgery is mainly performed laparoscopically, analgesic optimization is still essential to reduce complications and to improve the patients' comfort. In laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy, the intraoperative peritoneal instillation of bupivacaine hydrochloride (30 ml, 0.25%) was known to be safe and effective in reducing postoperative pain, nausea, and vomiting. Furthermore, usage of ketamine both as a pre and post-operative pain management is well established. Ketamine can be used solely or in combination with other co-adjuvant drugs, increasing their efficacy. Many therapeutic properties of ketamine have been attributed to its antagonism mechanism to N-Methyl-D-aspartate receptors.

Phase III, international multicentre, parallel group, blinded, 1:1 randomized controlled trial to determine the effect of an intraoperative intravenous lidocaine infusion on reducing the development of persistent pain 3-months after breast cancer surgery.

The main objective study is to compare the use of the cryoSPHERE probe to the standard-of-care method for pain management of patients receiving robotic-assisted thoracoscopic surgery, including reductions in opioid pain medication use and the development of post-surgical morbidity.

To compare continuous infusions to bolus infusions and there affect on post-surgical pain.

This will be a prospective randomized study to evaluate novel, clinically feasible, easily deliverable, pragmatic ways of preemptively modifying known CPSP and behavioral risk factors for acute to chronic pain transitions in adolescents before surgery. In addition, it will provide mechanistic insights and build a strong foundation for future large scale interventional studies that can impact outcomes positively in children undergoing surgery.

The goal of this clinical trial is to compare pre-incision vs laparoscopic assisted Transversus abdominis plane and rectus sheath block in patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy. The main question it aims to answer is: • if the effectiveness of TAP and rectus sheath block varies according to whether it is performed pre-incisional (pre emptive) or intraoperatively under Laparoscopic vision for laparoscopic cholecystectomies. Participants will be assessed for pain at 3,6,12, and 24 hrs after surgery. Researchers will compare pain score between Laparoscopic-assisted TAP block(LATAP) and Rectus Sheath block vs Pre-incision TAP (PITAP ) .

Rhomboid intercostal block is used to block lateral cutaneous branches of intercostal nerves between T3 and T9 dermatomes. RIB has been reported to be successful in attenuating acute pain following breast surgeries. However, it's effect on chronic pain has not been evaluated yet. The primary hypothesis of the study is that the incidence of chronic pain of the patients who will receive Rhomboid intercostal block (RIB) following breast cancer surgery will be lower than the patients who will receive no block intervention at the postoperative 3rd month. The secondary hypothesis is that the incidence ofchronic pain of the patients who will receive Rhomboid intercostal block (RIB) following breast cancer surgery will be lower than the patients who will receive no block intervention at the postoperative 6th month. An other secondary hypothesis is that the total BPI-SF scores will be lower in the RIB group than control group at the postoperative 3rd and the 6th months.
