NCT06785389
Fear of anesthesia plays a crucial role in the perioperative setting and can negatively affect recovery. The main objective is to assess the relationship between fear of anesthesia, surgeries, and hospitals and poorer postoperative pain control in patients undergoing scheduled surgery, as well as to relate preoperative anxiety to postoperative analgesic assessment in this population. This is a prospective observational study including 138 patients scheduled for surgery.
NCT02967640
The hypothesis of the present study is that in patients with rotator cuff tendinopathy a specific pharmacological blocking of peripheral glutamate-receptor N-methyl-d-aspartate receptor type1 (NMDAR) glutamate receptors will result in pain alleviation. Activated NMDAR1 has been demonstrated to be crucial for pain regulation in various pain disorders, and in biopsies from patients with tendinopathy, NMDAR1 was found to be activated. To test this hypothesis a specific NMDA receptor antagonist, ketalar (ketamine), will be injected guided by ultrasound into the subacromial space in patients with rotator cuff tendinopathy, and subsequently the pain response will be assessed.
