Rationale: Postamputation pain (PAP) is frequently seen after amputations and is a severe lifelong disabling condition affecting quality of life (QoL). Different nerve surgical techniques are available to treat PAP if non-surgical treatment options are not sufficient. Multiple techniques have been described for treatment of symptomatic neuromas with varying results. …
This randomized controlled clinical trial aims to evaluate the effects of topical triamcinolone acetonide application on wound healing and patient-reported outcomes at the palatal donor site following free gingival graft (FGG) surgery. A total of 36 patients with mucogingival deficiencies requiring FGG will be randomly assigned to either a control …
The goal of this clinical trial is to see if a new pain medicine called Tegileridine is at least as effective as morphine (the standard treatment) for pain relief after spinal surgery in teenagers with scoliosis. This type of study is called a "non-inferiority" trial. The study will also carefully …

This is a feasibility study looking at whether the use of Tamsulosin could lower the high incidence of postoperative urinary retention (POUR) in older men who undergo an oncological thoracic surgical procedure for suspected or confirmed cancer. In addition, the study will try to identify the time of resumption of …
This study, titled "R.A.G.A.Z.: Virtual Reality for Reducing Anxiety and Pain in Pediatric Orthopedic Surgery," aims to see if using virtual reality (VR) can help children feel less anxious and experience less pain during minor orthopedic surgeries.
