This study aims to compare the effects of blood flow restricted (BFR) exercise and to examine the differences between various BFR protocols on acute pain reduction in individuals with rotator cuff-related shoulder pain, as well as the exercise tolerance at each intensity and occlusion setting. There are four exercise modalities …
The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of thoracolumbar fascia mobilization and ultrasound-guided thoracolumbar interfascial 5% dextrose injection on pain, range of motion, disability, quality of life, proprioception, and fascial thickness and echogenicity in patients with nonspecific chronic low back pain. -Primary Objective: The primary objective is …
This study aims to examine the relationship between smartphone and digital game addiction and various health indicators, including physical activity level, sleep quality, stress, fatigue, and musculoskeletal pain among young people. University students often spend prolonged time on digital devices, which may affect their mental and physical well-being. By collecting …
This study aims to objectively evaluate the effect of Patient-Controlled Transcutaneous Electrical Acupoint Stimulation (PC-TEAS) on improving the quality of life in patients with chronic cancer pain, thereby providing evidence-based medical support for its efficacy and offering practical basis for patients to achieve home-based auxiliary treatment based on their own …
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the efficacy of intertransverse process block (ITPB) in improving quality of recovery and potentially preventing chronic postsurgical pain (CPSP) in adult patients undergoing elective cardiac surgery (e.g., coronary artery bypass graft \[CABG\], valve repair/replacement, or combined CABG/valve procedures). The main questions …
This prospective observational study aims to compare three routinely used postoperative analgesia techniques in patients undergoing open heart surgery: intravenous analgesia, thoracic epidural analgesia (TEA), and bilateral erector spinae plane block (ESPB). The primary objective is to evaluate the impact of these analgesia modalities on the development of chronic postoperative …
Caring for people with pancreatic cancer requires good coordination between hospital care and care at home, with different healthcare professionals working closely together. Patients are also becoming more involved in managing their own care on a daily basis. However, this active involvement can be difficult if there is poor communication …
Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are recommended in a multimodal pain management to reduce pain intensity and to spare opioid use. However, there is a controversy in its use in pleurodesis surgery as it could block the process of pleurodesis in surgical pneumothorax. In addition, NSAIDs could increase the risk of …
Video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) is less invasive compared to traditional thoracotomy. It is reported that the incidence of acute pain following VATS exceeds 80%. Inadequate postoperative analgesia may trigger a series of adverse physiological stress responses, increase the occurrence of postoperative complications, and affect the rehabilitation process.If acute pain is …
This study aims to evaluate a catheter-free method for delivering medications directly into the bladder, known as intravesical instillation, which is commonly used to treat conditions such as interstitial cystitis/bladder pain syndrome (IC/BPS), recurrent urinary tract infections, bladder cancer, and post-chemotherapy or post-radiation cystitis. The study investigates whether this method, …
