BACKGROUND Persistent postoperative pain continues to be an underrecognized complication. We examined the prevalence of and risk factors for this type of pain after cardiac surgery. METHODS We enrolled patients scheduled for coronary artery bypass grafting or valve replacement, or both, from Feb. 8, 2005, to Sept. 1, 2009. Validated measures were used to assess (a) preoperative anxiety and de...

Background: Conservative management is generally the primary treatment for intramuscular hemangimas. However,many patients will require surgery later in their life, after suffering a long period of pain. We aimed to evaluate theoncologic and functional outcomes of surgery as the initial treatment of single-muscle hemangiomas.Methods: Medical profiles of 17 patients with hemang...

introduction: the aim of the present study was to compare the effect of two different rotary instruments on postoperative pain in teeth with asymptomatic irreversible pulpitis. methods and materials: a total of 78 mandibular first and second molars were divided into two groups ( n =39) and their root canal preparation was carried out with either race or protaper rotary instruments. all the subj...

This paper is a summary of presentations on postoperative pain control by the authors at the 2014 PainForum meeting in People's Republic of China. Postoperative pain is often untreated or undertreated and may lead to subsequent chronic pain syndromes. As more procedures migrate to the outpatient setting, postoperative pain control will become increasingly more challenging. Evidence-based guidel...

In the postoperative period, 47% to 75% of the patients report some degree of pain. This study aimed to evaluate pain in the pre and postoperative period of patients submitted to craniotomy. This prospective research was carried out at the neurosurgery unit of a large Brazilian hospital. For a quantitative evaluation of pain, the verbal numeric 0-10 rating scale was used. Forty patients with a ...

Although the long-term results following traditional total joint arthroplasty are excellent, postoperative pain management has been suboptimal. Under-treatment of pain is a focus of growing concern to the orthopedic community. Poorly controlled postoperative pain leads to undesirable outcomes, including immobility, stiffness, myocardial ischemia, atelectasis, pneumonia, deep venous thrombosis, ...

SURGERY initiates an abnormal metabolic state characterized by a perioperative general fuel mobilization, increased energy expenditure, and breakdown of body tissues, partly explained by a loss or reduction of insulin sensitivity. It is presumed that perioperative variables, such as anesthesia, pain, fasting, hypoxemia, immobilization, and hemorrhage, might contribute to the establishment of a ...

Prevention and control of postoperative pain are essential. Inadequate treatment of postoperative pain continues to be a major problem after many surgeries and leads to worse outcomes, including chronic postsurgical pain. Optimal management of postoperative pain requires an understanding of the pathophysiology of pain, methods available to reduce pain, invasiveness of the procedure, and patient...
