Active clinical trials for "Pain, Postoperative"

This study will propose and evaluate a standardized LeFort osteotomy anesthetic protocol for pediatric patients at Johns Hopkins Hospital via a randomized controlled trial. The investigators hope this will help to minimize unnecessary postoperative pain management, inpatient stay, and long-term morbidity and mortality in these patients.

The purpose of this study is to learn whether patient-controlled epidural analgesia (PCEA) is a better method for managing pain after liver resection compared to patient-controlled analgesia (IV PCA). Currently, the standard pain control method for liver resection patients is IV PCA. There is not enough data on how epidural (PCEA) relieves pain and movement on a day to day basis after liver resection.

Chronic postoperative pain (CPP) remains a disturbing and obscure clinical problem. The hypothesis of this trial is that a peripheral block of the serratus anterior plane block type preoperatively after a modified radical mastectomy makes it possible to reduce the intensity and incidence of chronic post-surgical pain in breast cancer.

This project aims to study various predictive factors of postoperative pain after oral surgery among different parameters accessible preoperatively, in order to build a predictive model. It also aims to validate the external consistency of the Pain Sensitivity Questionnaire in an odontological context.

The purpose of the study is to assess if melatonin given for three nights before wisdom tooth surgery decreases post-operative pain and pain medication consumption. Patients will receive either melatonin or a placebo for three nights prior to surgery and we will measure pre-operative anxiety, preoperative sleep quality, post op pain medication consumption, post op pain scores, and blood values.

The purpose of the study is to evaluate the impact of social support and pain coping strategies in the development and evolution of post-surgical pain.

A single blinded randomized controlled trial. 212 subjects (teeth), 106 in each of the 2 groups will be recruited from the patients referred to Kuwait Board of Endodontics for primary root canal treatment. The aim is to compare the outcome of sealer-based obturation (SBO) with calcium silicate sealer versus warm vertical compaction (WVC) and resin based sealer. Preoperative PA radiograph and CBCT will be taken. A 1 year follow up period will be arranged and another PA radiograph and CBCT will be taken. The preoperative, postoperative and review clinical and radiographic data will be analyzed

While studies have shown improved postoperative pain control with TAP blocks after inguinal and ventral hernia repair, data comparing Liposomal bupivacaine (Exparel) to bupivacaine alone in formulation of the TAP block is particularly scarce. Therefore, we designed a prospective, randomized trial comparing the postoperative pain control in minimally invasive ventral and inguinal hernia repair patients who receive an Exaparel-based TAP block compared to the traditional bupivacaine (Marcaine) TAP block.

Shoulder surgery is the second orthopedic operation cause post operative pain Interscalene block is the standard block for shoulder surgery but it cause phrenic nerve block and diaphragmatic hemipareses Iso block is the block used to block the brachial plexuses cord and suprascapular nerve And paracoracoid subscapularis block supra scapular nerve in supra scapular fosa and axillary nerve as it curves around humeral head

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