Active clinical trials for "Pain, Postoperative"

Although less invasive, postoperative analgesia remains challenging in patients undergoing uniportal video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS).

In 230 patients undergoing mastectomy, the investigators will compare opioid-free anesthesia (OFA) versus conventional opioid-based anesthesia in terms of chronic pain. The enrolled patients will be randomly assigned into two groups with 1:1 ratio. Chronic pain will be evaluated at 1 year after mastectomy based on the Breast Cancer Pain Questionnaire (BCPQ). Baseline pain sensitivity test and psychologic evaluation will be done before operation.

Erector spinae plane block (ESPB) is a novel regional block technique that was proven to have superior outcomes in relieving postoperative pain in colorectal surgeries.Ketamine enhances the impact of local anaesthetics by reducing the duration and extent of motor block while shortening the onset of sensory and motor block.Transdermal Fentanyl Patch (TFP) was better than transdermal buprenorphine in postoperative analgesia following abdominal surgeries.

To determine if different techniques used in the creation of suture anchor socket creation can influence post-op pain following rotator cuff repair.

The aim of this study is to investigate the role of 0.5 micrograms/kg of dexmedetomidine with 0.2 % ropivacaine in erector spinae block in reducing opioid consumption for patients undergoing lumbar spine surgeries. This study will help in understanding the role of adding dexmdetomidine to ropivacaine in erector spinae block in reducing opioid consumption after lumbar spine surgeries

Constipation is common in pregnant women. Surgery, anaesthesia and opioid analgesics may further impair bowel function. The aim of the present study was to evaluate if oxycodone-naloxone combination compared to oxycodone reduced bowel dysfunction in patients undergoing caesarean section.

The aim of this study was to compare the intraoperative and the postoperative analgesic effect of psoas compartment block (PCB) and supra-inguinal fascia iliaca compartment block (SFIB) in pediatric patients undergoing developmental dysplasia of the hip

Pharmacogenomics (PGx) is the study of how genes affect a person's response to drugs. PGx testing for certain genes can help predict the risk of side effects or therapeutic failure from analgesics. Testing is not regularly performed in clinical practice due to long wait times for results and challenges with integrating test results in the electronic health record. Investigators leading this study hope to find out if providing surgeons with the ability to order a PGx test and electronically receive results with dosing recommendations will increase the use of these tests to guide analgesic choice and improve patient outcomes. This is a prospective, two-arm randomized implementation study. Eligible participants will be randomly assigned to receive genotype-guided analgesic selection (intervention arm) or usual care (control arm). Both cohorts will undergo pharmacogenetic testing at the time of consenting. The investigators will primarily measure the feasibility of using this test to guide analgesic selection.

To compare the effect of M-TAPA block and port-site local anesthetic infiltration on postoperative pain in pediatric laparoscopic appendectomies. The main questions it aims to answer are: Is M-TAPA block more effective in reducing pain? How M-TAPA block affects the use of rescue analgesics in the postoperative period? Participants will have the same anaesthetic agents during surgery, before extubation they will have same analgesic agent for postoperative pain. Participants in the M-TAPA group will undergo USG-guided M-TAPA block bilaterally with % 0.025 Bupivacaine max dose of 2 mg/kg by the same experienced anesthesiologist before extubation. Participants in the LAI group will be administered 0.025% Bupivacaine at a maximum dose of 2mg/kg divided equally and administered by the surgeon at 3 port entry sites before the patient is extubated.

Determine the impact of a laparoscopic-guided transversus abdominis plane (TAP) block timing (at initiation or conclusion of procedure) on the postoperative pain experience in patients following robot assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy (RALP).
