Coronary Artery DiseasePostoperative Pain1 more

The purpose of this study is to determine if ultrasound-guided bilateral pectointercostal fascial plane blocks with bilateral rectus sheath blocks block decrease pain scores, decrease opioid consumption, improve respiratory function, and improve quality of recovery in patients recovering from elective cardiac surgery involving primary median sternotomy and mediastinal chest tubes in comparison to pectointercostal fascial plane blocks alone.

Lidocaine as an Anesthetic Adjuvant in Liver and Gastric Laparoscopic Surgery

PainPostoperative

The aim is to analyze the effect of intravenous lidocaine administration on postoperative opioid use in patients undergoing upper abdominal cancer surgery. Specifically, those patients undergoing gastric cancer surgery and liver cancer surgery using a laparoscopic approach

Study to Evaluate the Efficacy of a Polyamine-deficient Diet for Treating Postoperative Pain After...

Digestive System Surgical Procedures

The aim of this study is to evaluate if a polyamine deficient diet started 7 days prior to a major abdominal surgery (eventration cure and digestive continuity) and followed 7 days post-surgery reduces the area under the curve of the numerical pain rating scale in the 72 hours post-surgery.

Well-Being After Breast Cancer Surgery

Coping Skills Training for Persistent Post-Surgical PainGeneral Health Education

The purpose of this study is to compare the benefits of skills training and health education interventions designed specifically to increase the well-being of people with persistent pain after breast surgery for lobular carcinoma in situ (LCIS), ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS), or invasive breast cancer, and to examine the roles of psychological and physiological variables as modifiable contributors to the continuing burden of persistent pain.

Identification of Best Postoperative Analgesia Method Following a Minimally Invasive Repair of Pectus...

Pectus ExcavatumPain1 more

Pectus excavatum is the most common chest wall deformity in children, accounting for 90% of all congenital chest wall deformities. It occurs in one to eight per 1000 live births. The severity of the pectus deformity may become more noticeable during pubertal growth spurs and repair is therefore usually performed in the teenage years. A common operative procedure to repair a pectus deformity is the minimally invasive repair of pectus excavatum (MIRPE). The MIRPE involves the substernal placement of a contoured metal bar secured to the lateral aspect of the ribs. This metal bar allows for correction of the concave deformity by applying constant outward pressure to the underside of the sternum. Although the cosmetic results are excellent, patients do report significant pain from the constant pressure exerted on the chest wall from the metal bar. Pain management approaches tend to differ on both the provider and institutional level. There is a lack of evidence regarding which postoperative analgesia method is best. To address this research gap, this proposal aims to conduct a randomized controlled trail using the three most commonly used methods; 1) patient controlled analgesia (PCA); 2) erector spinae blocks (ESB) with continuous infusion pumps; and 3) video-assisted intercostal nerve cryoablation (INC).

Dexamethasone and Robotic-assisted Hysterectomy

Inflammatory ResponsePain5 more

Robotic-assisted hysterectomy is an alternative to laparoscopic surgery as part of a minimal invasive regimen. Several treatment strategies are followed to improve the overall outcome and minimize surgical stress. Glucocorticoids provide significant analgesic and antiemetic effects but its role in a fast-track, multi-modal setting is not settled when discharge is planned within 24-36 hours. This study will evaluate in a randomized trial the effect of a single dose of 24 mg dexamethasone on women undergoing robotic-assisted hysterectomy with regard to surgical stress measured by c-reactive protein as primary outcome and, further, other stress markers like white blood cells, Il-6, cortisol, and creatinine kinase. The postoperative recovery will be registered in validated charts and questionnaires for pain and analgesic use, quality of recovery, incontinence, sexual and work life. Furthermore, in a sub-analysis, transcriptional profiling will be applied to explore, which parts of the innate and cellular immune system is activated to explore the mechanisms of surgical stress response. The hypothesis is that women undergoing robotic hysterectomy would benefit from peroperative glucocorticoid treatment on important life qualities like pain, fatigue, freedom of medications and resuming work and sexual activities. Further, future adjuvant peroperative regimens may be able to target the stress response in a more appropriate way

Breaststroke Swimming After Breast Cancer Treatment/Surgery as a Means of Treatment for Seroma,...

LymphedemaSeroma4 more

Following surgery and treatment for breast cancer, many patients experience swelling of lymph nodes (lymphedema) or accumulation of fluid (seroma) that can cause pain, restrict movement, and reduce quality of life. Current treatments include massage, pressure dressings, and drainage, but these are often ineffective and do not last. Physical activity, in particular swimming, has been linked to improvement in lymphedema/seroma symptoms, but more research is required to determine whether or not this type of treatment is effective.

Effective Postoperative Pain Relief After Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy With TENS

PainPostoperative

The study evaluates the effect of TENS (transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation) treatment for first line of treatment compared with conventional treatment with opioids on pain relief and time spent time in the post-anesthesia care unit after laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Half of the patients are randomized to TENS as first line of treatment and the second half is randomized to conventional opioid treatment. Patients who does not report postoperative pain which requires treatment are used as controls.

This study aims to investigate the effect of transversus thoracis muscle plane block (TTP), using repeated boluses of ropivacaine via catheter, on postoperative pain and oxycodone consumption after elective cardiac surgery with sternotomy.
