NCT06296758
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare two commonly used local/regional anesthesia techniques in adults patients undergoing hip fracture surgery. The main question\[s\] it aims to answer are: • the impact of both interventions on patient level of pain. • impact on postoperative analgesics administered Participants will be randomly assigned to one of two local/regional anesthesia techniques, either femoral nerve block (FNB) or suprainguinal fascia iliaca block (SiFi). Both techniques are the usual practice at the hospital, and we are NOT aiming to experiment on new anesthesia technique in this study.
NCT03965897
Primary Aim: To examine the superior efficacy of ACT versus Attention Control (AC) on postoperative pain intensity and functioning in at-risk Veterans undergoing TKA. Changes in pain intensity and functioning from baseline to 6 weeks, 3 months and 6 months post-TKA will be compared. Level of pain intensity will be measured using the Brief Pain Inventory (BPI) Pain Severity Subscale and level of functioning will be measured using the Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS) Activities of Daily Living and Quality Of Life Subscales. Secondary Aims: A) To examine the superior efficacy of ACT versus AC on the severity of anxiety and depressive symptoms and improvements in coping skills. Changes from baseline to 6 weeks, 3 months and 6 months post-TKA will be compared. Anxiety and depressive symptoms will be measured with the Hamilton Rating Scales (Ham-A and Ham-D, respectively). Coping skills (i.e. Pain Acceptance and Engagement in Values-Based Behavior) will be measured with the Chronic Pain Acceptance Questionnaire and the Chronic Pain Values Inventory. B) To evaluate whether decreases in distress-based symptoms and increases in coping skills mediate changes in pain and functioning at 6 months in Veterans receiving ACT. Changes in anxiety symptoms, depressive symptoms, pain acceptance and engagement in values-based behavior from baseline to 6 weeks and 3 months will be used as potential mediators for changes in pain and functioning at 6 months. Exploratory Aim: Describe the pharmacological and non-pharmacological strategies Veterans are using to manage pain and their perceived helpfulness. This will provide insights into the effects of the current opioid restrictions on pain management strategies. These strategies \& their perceived helpfulness will be assessed using the Pain Management Strategies Survey at baseline, 6 weeks, 3, and 6 months.
