Quadratus Lumborum Block for Total Hip Arthroplasty
The quadratus lumborum (QL) block is a fascial plane block that has been described to provide analgesia from T7-L3 dermatomes. The investigators aim to evaluate the efficacy of QL blocks in patients undergoing primary total hip arthroplasty (THA).
Efficacy of Pericapsular Nerve Group (PENG) Block for Hip Surgeries
To study the efficacy of the PENG block on the duration of postoperative analgesia. There are two groups of patients, who are undergoing hip joint surgeries, one group (Control Group) will receive spinal anesthesia only while the other group (PENG Group) will receive PENG block before spinal anesthesia.
Anesthetic Optimization in Pediatric LeFort Surgeries
This study will propose and evaluate a standardized LeFort osteotomy anesthetic protocol for pediatric patients at Johns Hopkins Hospital. There are two cohorts to this study: a prospective cohort who will receive the study anesthesia protocol and a historical cohort that received standard of care. The investigators hope this will …
Preoperative Mindfulness: Minimally Invasive Hysterectomy
This is a randomized control trial investigating the effects of a preoperative mindfulness intervention on postoperative pain, quality of recovery and stress scores in women undergoing minimally invasive hysterectomy. The mindfulness intervention will be delivered via the application Headspace™. The primary outcome will be pain scores measured on postoperative day …
Efficacy of Preoperative Administration of Gabapentin in 3rd Molar Dental Extraction.
This study is a double-blind, randomized, prospective, placebo-controlled single-center clinical research study in which 600 mg of gabapentin or placebo will be administered 2 hours preoperatively to 49 patients each undergoing wisdom teeth extraction. We will measure intraoperative opioid use, severity of pain, the number of analgesics taken, and side …
TAP Blocks With Ropivacaine Continuous Infusion Catheters vs Single Dose Liposomal Bupivicaine After Kidney Transplant
This study is a comparison of the analgesic efficacy of transversus abdominis plane (TAP) blocks with ropivacaine bolus plus continuous ropivacaine infusion via catheters versus single shot TAP blocks with liposomal bupivacaine.
Intrathecal Morphine for Analgesia in Video-assisted Thoracic Surgery
VATS is widely used for diagnosis and treatment of intrathoracic conditions. Despite many benefits, postoperative pain continues to be intense after VATS. The optimal strategy for pain management has not been defined. In this randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blinded clinical investigation, investigators hypothesize that 5 mcg/kg intrathecal morphine will decrease postoperative analgesic …
Buprenorphine, Clonidine, and Dexamethasone on Duration of Brachial Plexus Blocks for Upper Extremity Surgery
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if there is a difference in morphine requirements in patients after upper extremity surgeries including shoulder arthroscopy. The main question it aims to answer is whether there is a difference between Interscalene brachial plexus blocks with the addition of buprenorphine, dexamethasone, …
Transversus Abdominis Plane(TAP) Block Versus Local Anesthetic Infiltration
There have been some studies to compared trans abdominis plane(TAP) block with wound infiltration of local anesthetics in multiport laparoscopic surgery, but there have been no studies in single incision laparoscopic gastrectomy. The purpose of this study was to compare the effect of ultrasonography-guided transverse nerve block and localized anesthesia …
Gabapentin to Reduce Opioid Use Postoperatively (GROUP) in Children
The primary objective of this study is to determine if the peri and post operative use of gabapentin in children reduces the need for narcotics after thoracic surgery. We hypothesize that patients who are given gabapentin will need fewer morphine equivalents postoperatively than those who were not given gabapentin
