Active clinical trials for "Pain, Postoperative"

Adenotonsillectomy is one of the most common ambulatory surgical procedures performed to children. Tonsillectomy or adenotonsillectomy have a high incidence of postoperative pain. There is still debate about the optimal analgesia for this common surgical procedure. Different methods have been described and used to reduce pain including; improved intraoperative anesthetic pain regimens, use of corticosteroids, adjustment of surgical technique, and intraoperative local anesthetic injection. Intraoperative local anesthetic is a preventive or preemptive analgesia which is the analgesia given before painful stimuli to prevent the subsequent pain. The main goal of the preventive analgesia is the pain relief with minimum side effects. The role of local anesthetic infiltration in the reduction of postadenotonsillectomy pain is still controversial. The objective of this study is to investigate and compare the effectiveness of preincisional peritonsillar infiltration of ketamine and tramadol for post-operative pain on children following adenotonsillectomy. This is prospective, double-blinded randomized study.

compare the analgesic efficacy of the combination of bupivacaine and morphine, bupivacaine and fentanyl and bupivacaine and ketamine in alleviating post operative pain following laparoscopic cholecystectomy.

NALDEBAIN ER injection, invented by Taiwanese, launched in 2017, is a nalbuphine synthetic prodrug with oil-based solution to extend the release in human body by intramuscular injection. It was approved for the premedication use for moderate to severe pain relief, expected after surgery. There was limited experience with the combination of medication and different type of surgeries. Only the effect of operative analgesia on the hemorrhoidectomy patients have been well studied. Through reviewing the past medical cases, the pain intensity after receiving take down of anastomosis was about 4 to 7 points (moderate pain), lasing about 1 to 3 days. It was a suitable population with multi-day analgesic unmet need. At present, the standard treatment after take down of anastomosis in the CMUH was morphine as needed. This treatment might not provide for well-controlled postoperative pain management. Patients might receive more painkillers when they needed than before pain occurred. Plus, it also cost more postoperative medical care. Therefore, this study intended to compare the standard treatment and NALDEBAIN for postoperative outcomes, safety and satisfaction. The study will enroll patients scheduled to electively undergo take down of anastomosis. Eligible subjects were randomly divided into two groups, one receiving NALDEBAIN and the other receiving standard treatment. The study will evaluate pain intensity, dosage of supplement analgesics, incidence of adverse reactions, patient satisfaction, time of the first fart after surgery, and duration of postoperative hospital stay.

Randomized, double-blind, controlled trial: a comparison of Levobupivacaine and Ropivacaine for postoperative analgesia using TAP-block Objectives: VAS score during the first 12 hours Determine which drug is more effective for postoperative analgesia in the first 12 hours after surgery Side effects

to compare the analgesia and side effect of nalbuphine and morphine for elective Laparoscopic myomectomy.

This is a prospective, randomized control trial to compare SPANK block combined with adductor canal block to adductor canal block alone in treatment of post-operative pain after total knee arthroplasty. The primary outcome is pain control, which will be measured throughout the post-operative course using morphine equivalents of opioid analgesics used during the first 24 hours after surgery. Secondary outcomes include pain scores recorded at 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, and 24 hours post-operatively, cumulative pain score, incidence of post-operative nausea and vomiting, and extent of motor blockade. The study will aid in answering the question of whether SPANK block is an effective adjunct in preventing pain and decreasing opioid requirement after TKA.

To investigate whether midazolam has any effect on postoperative pain in outpatient surgery, the investigators will assess the impact of different midazolam doses on pain scores 24h, 7 days and 3 months after ambulatory surgery. The investigators hypothesize that patients being administered higher midazolam doses will refer more pain.

The aim of the study is to investigate the effect of preoperative epidural dexmedetomidine compared to dexamethasone on postoperative pain control, analgesic consumption and oxydative stress response in patients undergoing thoracic surgery

Midline laparotomy is commonly used in emergency and elective cancer surgery and patients need effective and safe pain treatment after this type of surgery. Nowadays modern anticoagulant therapy may prevent use of central regional blocks in pain management. Therefore in the present study the efficacy and safety of rectus sheath analgesia is studied using different administration techniques. The primary aim is the efficacy of the rectus sheath analgesia measured with pain ratings and the amount rescue opioid used. Secondary aims were concentrations of local anesthetic, rescue opioid and satisfaction to analgesia method used.

Major abdominal surgeries are associated with severe abdominal pain, which can affect respiratory and cardiac functions, if insufficiently managed. This increases the incidence of post-operative morbidity. The objective of this study was to detect the efficacy and safety of magnesium sulphate as an adjuvant to the analgesia offered by local anesthetic in ultrasound guided TAP block in patients undergoing total abdominal hysterectomy.
