Patients who undergo cardiothoracic surgery often experience pain and anxiety around the time of surgery. Currently, treatments for pain and anxiety around the time of surgery include opioids and benzodiazepines, which can have severe side effects and can be ineffective. Interventions combining virtual reality with olfactory stimuli are a promising …
The purpose of this study is to compare opioid prescribing practices by either routine provider prescribing practices, or with the use of a calculator, i.e., the Opioid Calculator, published by the University of Michigan (www.opioidcalculator.org), with the intent of decreasing the number of pills.
Patients with non-specific low back pain will be compared to healthy, age- and sex-matched controls to determine the most discriminating back muscle characteristics and to delineate possible phenotypes of patients with non-specific low back pain showing impaired proprioceptive postural control. Additionally, the group of patients with non-specific low back pain …
Thoracotomy is among the most painful surgical procedures and can cause severe pain with a high incidence. Inadequate treatment of acute postoperative pain may lead to undesired complications. Paravertebral block (PVB) is an effective technique that provides adequate analgesia in thoracic surgeries. However, it is an advanced technique with potential …
The goal of this randomized controlled trial is to determine whether the use of a novel vibrating pelvic floor therapeutic device ("Kiwi") improves sexual function in sexually active women aged 18 and older with genito-pelvic pain and penetration disorder (GPPPD) more effectively than traditional vaginal dilators. The main questions it …
Postoperative pain management is one of the key factors in improving rehabilitation and accelerating recovery. The external oblique intercostal plane block can be used to provide abdominal wall analgesia for effective pain control in abdominal surgery. The aim of this study is to investigate the postoperative analgesic efficacy of the …
This randomized controlled trial evaluates the effectiveness of an AI-assisted, camera-based progressive muscle relaxation application in office workers aged 20 to 40 years. Participants are randomly allocated to an intervention group or a control group. The intervention group completes a 4-week progressive muscle relaxation program using the PhysioTR Academic application, …
This trial evaluates the efficacy and safety of surfactant administration with thin catheter technique together with analgesic premedication in comparison with the established INSURE-strategy. It will provide valuable knowledge to improve clinical methodology and enhance lung protective treatment strategies for preterm infants.
The researchers will fill out the "Patient Introduction Form" for the patients who agreed to participate in the study after obtaining permission from the experimental group with the "Informed Consent Form" the day before the surgery. The breathing exercises will be taught and monitored by the researchers, and the researcher …
The goal of this observational study is to describe the influence of renal function on the pharmacokinetics of methadone used through an intravenous patient-controlled analgesia (IV-PCA) pump for the management of acute postoperative pain. After surgery the participants will use an IV-PCA of methadone and blood samples will be withdrawn …
