Continuous Infusions vs Scheduled Bolus Infusions
The goal of the study is to compare continuous infusions and scheduled bolus infusions for peripheral nerve blocks and their effect on post-surgical pain.
Pain Control and Quality of Recovery After Intravenous Methadone Versus Intrathecal Morphine in Major Abdominal Surgery
Moderate to severe postoperative pain is relatively common after major abdominal surgery. It is associated with less than optimal surgical experience, poor quality of recovery, and the development of persistent postsurgical pain. Opioids remain a significant component of postoperative pain management. Side effects of opioids used for the treatment of …
Comparison of Outcomes Between Intraosseous Femoral and Tibial Injection in Simultaneous Bilateral Total Knee Arthroplasty Patients
In patients with osteoarthritis of the knee whose pain cannot be relieved by conservative treatment, total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is the operation that increases the quality of life for the patient. Pain management after total knee arthroplasty TKA is an important consideration to improve patient outcomes and reduce length of …
Management of Postoperative Discomfort in Young Children Following Dental Rehabilitation Under General Anesthesia
The purpose of this study is to investigate the effectiveness of various oral analgesic regimens in minimizing post-operative pain and discomfort in young children following dental rehabilitation under general anesthesia (DRGA). In this randomized controlled trial, three analgesic regimens following DRGA in Franciscan Children's Hospital will be compared using both …
Opioid Sparing Effect of an ISP Nerve Block on Post-Op Pain Control in Posterior Cervical Spine Surgery
Participants who have a surgical procedure called Posterior Cervical (neck) Spine Surgery will normally need pain medication to relieve post operative pain. This usually includes opioid medications. In this study, the consented participant may receive a nerve block procedure, in addition to the pain relieving medication. There is a fifty-fifty …
Efficacy of Serratus Posterior Superior Intercostal Plane Block in Cardiac Device Implantation
This randomized controlled clinical trial investigates the efficacy of the serratus posterior superior intercostal plane block (SPSIPB) in patients undergoing cardiac implantable electronic device (CIED) implantation. Participants will be randomized to receive either SPSIP block with local anesthetic or a sham procedure with saline injection. Pain intensity will be evaluated …
Saddle Block With IT Morphine for Penile Inversion Vaginoplasty
Penile Inversion Vaginoplasty (PIV) is a transition-related surgery (TRS) that is associated with severe postoperative pain. The optimal pain management strategies for this surgery remain unknown. We hypothesized that the addition of a saddle block with intrathecal morphine would yield clinically important analgesic benefits.
Breaststroke Swimming After Breast Cancer Treatment/Surgery as a Means of Treatment for Seroma, Lymphedema, and Chronic Arm and Chest Pain
Following surgery and treatment for breast cancer, many patients experience swelling of lymph nodes (lymphedema) or accumulation of fluid (seroma) that can cause pain, restrict movement, and reduce quality of life. Current treatments include massage, pressure dressings, and drainage, but these are often ineffective and do not last. Physical activity, …
Programmed Intermittent Bolus During Continuous Interscalene Nerve Block for Shoulder Arthroplasty
A new infusion strategy named the 'programmed intermittent bolus' (PIB) technique delivers the hourly dose within minutes compared to the traditional infusion that delivers such dose over an hour. The PIB technique has demonstrated superior patient satisfaction and reduced local anesthetic consumption when utilized for pain control during labour and …
The Effectiveness of Heat Treatment on Knee Pain in Patients With Osteoarthritis - an International, Multicenter Clinical Investigation
This post-market clinical follow-up, open-label, multicenter clinical investigation is designed to investigate the effectiveness, safety and tolerability of ThermaCare® Knee Heatwraps in the painful knee joint due to osteoarthritis. Approximately 80 patients, 19-69 years old inclusive, with moderate knee osteoarthritis (without acute flares or inflammation) will be enrolled. The overall …
