Summary: This prospective randomized non-inferiority study will be conducted to compare the analgesic anti-emetic effects of intravenous ondansetron versus perineural ondansetron in patients undergoing laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy.

Summary: Patient with atraumatic knee pain without a large knee effusion on x-ray will be randomized to receive either a genicular nerve block (GNB) or standard of care in the emergency department.

Summary: Pain management after total hip replacement is one of the most important aspects of postoperative care for patients and clinicians alike. One of the most common techniques used in anesthesia for this procedure is spinal anesthesia with concurrent administration of opioids into spinal sac. Addition of opioids not only prolongs the anesthesia but also provides pain relief after the procedure for a l...

Summary: This observational study aims to compare the effectiveness of ultrasound-guided erector spinae plane (ESP) block and transcutaneous radiofrequency (RF) treatment in patients with postherpetic neuralgia. Pain intensity and neuropathic pain characteristics will be evaluated using the Visual Analog Scale (VAS) and the Self-Leeds Assessment of Neuropathic Symptoms and Signs (S-LANSS) score.

Summary: A placebo-controlled randomized controlled trial exploring the effect of intraarticular steroids, saline or an occupational therapy intervention in inflammatory carpometacarpal-1 osteoarthritis

Summary: This study aims to evaluate whether a regional anesthesia technique called the transversalis fascia plane block (TFPB) can improve pain control after hand-assisted laparoscopic donor nephrectomy (HALDN), a minimally invasive surgery performed in living kidney donors. Although HALDN is less invasive than open surgery, patients often experience significant pain after the operation, mainly due to the...

Summary: This single-center, randomized, controlled, single-blind clinical trial evaluates whether a stellate ganglion block (SGB) using bupivacaine can improve persistent symptoms in adults with long COVID. Participants are assigned in a 1:1 ratio to receive either an ultrasound-guided right-sided SGB or a placebo saline injection delivered to the sternocleidomastoid muscle. After the intervention, partic...

Summary: This study plans to learn more about postoperative pain management after cesarean deliveries (C-sections). As a part of standard of care, the Children's Hospital Colorado's Colorado Fetal Care Center (CFCC) follows the standard Enhanced Recovery After Cesarean (ERAC) guidelines to manage pain following C-section delivery. In addition, the CFCC uses an FDA approved medical device called the ON-Q ® ...

Summary: Arthroscopic knee surgery is one of the most commonly performed procedures in orthopedic surgery. More than 50% of patients experience moderate to severe pain after the operation. Inadequate postoperative pain control and poor recovery quality can negatively impact physiotherapy protocols, prolong hospital stays, and consequently lead to cognitive dysfunction, systemic infections, and increased he...

Summary: The goal of this clinical trial is to learn whether the addition of spinal analgesia leads to superior recovery in patients undergoing robotic-assisted laparoscopic upper urinary tract surgery under general anesthesia. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Is the decrease in wellbeing as quantified by the patient-centered outcome scale Quality of Recovery 15 (QoR-15), from baseline to the fi...

Summary: This project proposes to compare epidural versus spinal anesthesia in patients having liver resection surgery. The investigators hypothesize that spinal anesthesia will result in improved blood pressure control postoperatively and reduce the amount of intravenous fluids required after surgery. Spinal anesthesia is expected to provide the same pain control benefits as epidurals, with faster recover...

Summary: This is a single center, double-blind, randomized trial to compare the effects of intrathecal hydromorphone versus intrathecal morphine to treat post cesarean pain in patients with OUD taking buprenorphine. Inclusion criteria include American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) Physical Status II or III presenting for cesarean delivery to be done under spinal anesthesia, who have a diagnosis of OUD...
