Ketamine as a Supplement to Local Anesthesia for Minor Procedures
This trial is a double-blind randomized controlled clinical trial of adults and children (ages 7 to less than 70 years). Patients who present to the ED and who undergo minor bedside procedures that require local anesthesia will be divided into two groups: The first group will be treated with 0.7 …
Low Concentration Local Anesthesia Fascia Iliaca Block for Total Hip Arthroplasty
Fascia iliaca compartment block (FICB) is a documented option for postoperative analgesia for total hip arthroplasty (THA) surgery. FICB is demonstrated to be effective in terms of analgesia and opioid requirements decrease, however it causes quadriceps motor weakness. Current available motor sparing techniques are not as effective as FICB for …
Study Comparing Local/ MAC Anesthesia in Lumbar Decompression
Explore efficacy, complications, and other factors associated with anaesthetic choice- To evaluate the efficacy of local + MAC as an alternative anesthetic to general anesthesia and to analyze patients' outcomes and experiences.
Virtual Reality During Conization of Cervix Uterus Under Local Anesthesia
To evaluate the effectiveness of virtual reality glasses as a distraction technique in the management of acute pain and anxiety during conization of cervix uterus under local anesthesia
Vibratory Anesthesia in Trigger Finger Injections
This study aims to compare the effectiveness of the use of no topical anesthesia, topical coolant, and the use of vibration in the reduction of pain during trigger finger injections. This will be done by randomizing patients who are diagnosed with trigger finger, warrant and choose to continue with a …
Regional Anesthesia in Pediatric Orthopaedic Patients
To identify the benefits from regional anesthesia use as pain management in the pediatric population by delineating the differences in efficacy of continuous nerve blockade versus single-shot techniques after pediatric orthopaedic limb procedures. By doing this, the investigators can determine if specific anesthetic techniques should become a standard of care …
Effect of Local Warming for Arterial Catheterization in Pediatric Anesthesia
The increase in internal diameter (ID) and cross-sectional area (CSA) may facilitate better arterial catheterization. Since an increase in body temperature can cause peripheral vasodilation, we aimed to determine if local warming of the radial artery (RA) catheterization site could improve the success rate of catheterization in pediatric patients.
A Pilot Study of Local Anesthesia for Inguinal Hernia Surgery in Older Adults
Inguinal hernia repair-the most common general surgery operation in the U.S.-provides a unique opportunity to improve outcomes for older patients by changing surgical practice. Nearly 80% of inguinal hernia operations are performed under general anesthesia versus 15-20% using local anesthesia, despite the absence of evidence for superiority. The choice of …
Combining Lidocaine and Ropivacaine for an Infraclavicular Brachial Plexus Nerve Block
The aim of the study is to investigate how the combination of ropivacaine (a slow onset, long duration local anesthetic) with lidocaine (a rapid onset, shorter duration local anesthetic) affects the onset and duration of a lateral infraclavicular plexus brachialis (LIC) block in patients undergoing non-acute hand surgery.
TAP Block Versus Local Anesthesia Wound Infiltration for Postoperative Pain Relief After Appendicectomy in Children
When performing laparoscopic appendectomy in children, regional anesthetic techniques are rou-tinely used concomitantly with general anesthesia. These techniques include local infiltration of the trocar wounds or transverse abdominal plane block (TAP block). In 2018, a position paper of the European Society of Pediatric Anaesthesiology advised for TAP block over local …
