Oral Acetaminophen for Post-Op Pain Management in Bariatric Surgery Patients
Adult patients with morbid obesity who have had Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) or laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) surgery have impaired drug metabolism. There is a paucity of information available on how these patients metabolize acetaminophen post operatively and if drug preparation has any effect on achieving adequate pain control. The …
Cryoablation Effects on Acute and Chronic Pain After Thoracotomy and Thoracoscopy
The researchers will compare the common methods of post-surgical pain control, such as epidural or intercostal nerve block with a newer method called cryoablation. The research team is conducting this study to determine if cryoablation provides more effective pain control when compared to an epidural or intercostal nerve block.
Expressive Art Therapy for Elder Adults With Chronic Low Back Pain

Additionally, the study will investigate facilitators and barriers to participation. A mixed-methods approach will be employed, including …
Objective Integrated Multimodal Electrophysiological Index for the Quantification of Visceral Pain
The objectives of the study are to 1) Conduct telemetric biosignals (EDA, ECG, and EMG) recording in healthy controls and IBS participants experiencing cutaneous and visceral pain; and 2) Validate the OIME index as a biomarker for quantifying pain in IBS participants and its capability to assess the treatment of …
The Erector Spinae Plane Block For Gastrointestinal Malignancy Pain Treatment (EGIPT)
This study will target patients with gastrointestinal (GI) malignancy who present to any of 4 Penn Medicine emergency departments (EDs) with intractable abdominal pain. We will offer eligible patients an erector spinae plane block (ESPB), a regional anesthesia technique which is already offered to such patients in the ED at …
Effect of Sedation After Ultrasound-Guided Spinal Anesthesia on Back Pain
This study will evaluate whether giving sedation before spinal anesthesia, when performed with ultrasound guidance, reduces the risk of developing back pain after surgery. Spinal anesthesia is commonly used but may cause discomfort or persistent back pain in some patients. By comparing standard techniques, ultrasound guidance, and sedation, we aim …
Photobiomodulation for Lower Back Pain Post Spinal Fusion and Decompression Surgery
