BACKGROUND Intravenous administration of rocuronium bromide causes pain at the site of injection in most patients. The mechanism that leads to this side effect is still unknown and multiple drugs' pretreatments were used to prevent its occurrence with varying success rates. PURPOSE The study aimed to evaluate the effects of the pretreatment with lidocaine, fentanyl, and remifentanil using a v...

OBJECTIVES Laser photocoagulation surgery is a routine treatment for threshold retinopathy of prematurity (ROP). However, little is known about which anaesthesia protocols provide efficient pain control while minimising exposure risk to vulnerable infants. In this study, therefore, we assessed the efficacy and tolerability of multiple anaesthesia techniques used on premature infants during lase...

OBJECTIVE Our aim was to find out whether intravenous fentanyl was effective in reducing the pain of first-trimester abortion. STUDY DESIGN This randomized controlled trial included 825 women attending a nonhospital abortion facility. Some women chose standard care. Women who did not choose standard care were randomly assigned to receive either 50 to 100 microg of fentanyl, a placebo, or no i...

Objective: The key objective of the study is to compare Propofol-based total intravenous anaesthesia (TIVA) with Isoflurane-based inhalational for controlled hypotension during functional endoscopic sinus surgery (FESS). Materials and Methods: This a prospective randomized, single-blinded clinical study. involved 40 patients posted elective FESS surgery, selected randomly from ENT department. A...

Method: The present double-blind clinical trial recruited 213 patients presenting with fractured limbs to emergency departments. The first group of patients received 1 micg/kg of intravenous fentanyl citrate from a solution of 50 micg/ml and 5 ml of normal saline in nebulized form (group A), and the second group intravenously received 5 ml of normal saline and 4 micg/kg of 50 micg/ml solution o...

Pain control is a major concern in post-thoracotomy patients. The current prospective randomized double-blind study was designed to evaluate the analgesic effects of morphine and fentanyl given interpleurally after posterolateral thoracotomy. Thirty patients undergoing elective posterolateral thoracotomy in a teaching hospital in Tehran were divided into 3 groups with equal number of patients. ...
