The objective of this study is to identify the minimum effective dosage of a commonly used local anaesthetic drug "levobupivacaine" required to produce an effective ultrasound guided (USG) superior trunk block (STB) in at least 90% of patients for shoulder arthroscopic surgeries.
Sciatic nerve block at the popliteal fossa is indicated for foot or ankle surgery, and the introduction of ultrasound guidance (USG) has improved the ease and accuracy of the performance of this block. Recent studies proved that subparaneural injection is associated with faster block onset, higher block success rate, and …
Study Agent/ Intervention/ Procedure The educational tool consisted of 20 short (MSK) case simulations of 15 minutes duration reflecting conditions of the upper extremity; lower extremity; spine; trauma and MSK infections were developed, reviewed and integrated into links that also contained demographic questionnaires; pre and post simulation knowledge questions and …
Ultrasound guided supraclavicular brachial plexus block (BPB) has been extensively studied and recommended as a sole anesthetic for upper extremity surgeries. The efficacy of ultrasound-guided (USG) SeTB for surgical anesthesia of the entire upper extremity and cadaver anatomic study evaluating the spread of the injectate after a simulated SeTB is …
The objective of this observational study is to gain insight into a new approach to rehabilitation in Austria, with a particular focus on work-specific exercises that are dependent on the specific work-related needs of the patients. Two groups are being observed: one was referred to a three-week work-specific rehabilitation programme …
This study aims to evaluate the quality of recovery after video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) by comparing the efficacy of a single-level intertransverse process block (ITPB) against a three-level ITPB, with particular attention to the quality of recovery measured by the QoR15 score at 24 hours post-surgery.
This study evaluates an ergonomics intervention to reduce work-related musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) among dental healthcare workers in Dubai government hospitals, where up to 90% prevalence affects the lower back, neck, shoulders, and upper extremities due to repetitive tasks and postures. Using a cluster randomized controlled trial (RCT) across three hospitals …
The main objective of the investigators is to improve the quality of care in patients with orthopedic disorders followed in St Luc hospital (Brussels Belgium). To do this, the investigators want to assess the impact of Orthopedic treatments at the structural level (bone structure, muscle, etc.), at the functional level …
Today, surgery in an ambulatory setting is preferred for many reasons. Total hip and knee arthroplasty (THA and TKA) are now procedures where patients can be sent home on the same day of the surgical procedure. However, this requires substantial knowledge of factors affecting the length of hospital stay. In …
In this study, the investigators will evaluate the effect of a podcast on constipation on the number of patients with constipation. It is hypothesised that the podcast on constipation, will prevent constipation in the period leading up to and after surgery. This is a randomised controlled trial. The population of …
