Active clinical trials for "Pain, Postoperative"

This study was to evaluate the effect of intraoperative intravenous lidocaine on postoperative pain management after laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Half of patients will receive intravenous lidocaine during procedure, the rest half of patients will receive regular anesthesia care and placebo treatment.

This research will explore the question of whether preincisional skin infiltration with bupivacaine 0.25% decreases postoperative pain after Cesarean delivery.

To compare the effects of perioperative intravenous Dexamethasone with a placebo on the severity of persistent postsurgical pain after total knee arthroplasty.

Prospective, randomized, single-blind study, whether perioperative educational improves pain-related postoperative outcomes,

Double-blinded randomized control study investigating intrathecal morphine as an additive to spinal anesthesia in patients undergoing elective total knee arthroplasty. The investigators aim to include a total of 120 patients, randomized to two equal groups. Participants in the intervention group are administered intrathecal 0,2mg morphine and 12,5mg bupivacaine for spinal anaesthesia. Participants in the placebo group are administered 12.5mg bupivacaine and saline to match the volume of intervention goup. Primary end points are opioid consumption and possible adverse effects.

Effect of perineural dexamethasone on the duration of popliteal nerve block after ankle/foot surgery

This study evaluates the comparison between liposomal bupivacaine versus bupivacaine HCl in Transversus Abdominis Plane blocks for gynecologic surgery on the length of stay in the hospital, total narcotic use, and overall complications rates.

Ventral hernia repair leads to more than expected pain. This is thought to be secondary to nerve pain at the lateral transfixion sutures. Systemic lidocaine given pre-op has in other situations decreased neurogenic pain. This study will examine its effects on pain experienced after ventral hernia repair.

Randomized double blind placebo controlled trial to compare the post-operative pain control advantages of post-incisional wound infiltration with liposomal bupivacaine to plain bupivacaine in patients presenting for elective caesarean delivery.

The association between low level laser and auricular acupuncture can be an alternative when conventional drugs are contraindicated or to reduce the quantity of these postoperative medications. The objective of this study is to evaluate the efficiency of low level laser at auriculotherapy points in reducing postoperative pain in lower third molar surgery. Eighty third molars surgeries will be performed in 40 healthy patients by a split-mouth design. Immediately after surgery, each side of the patient's mouth will be randomly treated with different regimens in a double-blind design: low level laser in auricular acupuncture points or simulation of its use. This treatment will be performed at 24 and 48 hours after surgery. The primary variable is the post-operative pain. The secondary variables are trismus, edema and local temperature. They will be assessed at baseline, 24 hours, 48 hours and seven days after surgery.The blood samples for analysis of systemic inflammatory cytokines (TNF-α, interleukin 1, interleukin 6 and interleukin 8) will be assessed at baseline and 24 hours after surgery.
