For most day-surgery patients, postoperative pain can be managed adequately at home with conventional oral analgesics, such as paracetamol, nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), and weak opioids (codeine, dextropropoxyphene). However, for moderate to severe pain, this treatment may inadequate [1-4]. Our recent study of 1035 patients undergoing a variety day-surgical procedures [5] showed that approximately 30% experienced home. Severe was by many who underwent the following...

Background The aim of this randomized, double-blinded study was to compare the analgesic efficacy bupivacaine versus ropivacaine brachial plexus analgesia after ambulatory hand surgery. An additional feasibility and safety patient-controlled regional (PCRA) outside hospital. Methods Sixty patients scheduled for surgery underwent with axillary blockade. After surgery, catheter connected an elastomeric, disposable "homepump," containing 100 ml either 0.125% or ropivacaine. When experienced...
Clinical practice is a pivotal part of nursing education. It provides students with the opportunity to put knowledge and skills they have acquired from lectures into real patients, under guidance registered nurses. experience also essential for shaping students' identity as future professional There lack understanding ways in which learn practical apply within across different contexts, i.e. how clinical skills, learnt laboratory university settings, setting.

Abstract Aims and objectives In this study we describe the development of a short, easy‐to‐use questionnaire to measure postoperative recovery evaluate its content validity intra‐patient reliability. The is designed progress long‐term follow‐up possible effects interventions during recovery. Methods involved four steps. (1) A conceptualization item definitions were based on theoretical framework description patients’ from perspective patients, registered nurses surgeons; (2) Content items...
Few researchers have described postoperative recovery from a broad, overall perspective. In this article the authors describe study focusing on patient and staff experiences of using qualitative descriptive design to obtain description phenomenon. They performed 10 individual interviews with patients who had undergone abdominal or gynecological surgery 7 group registered nurses working surgical wards in primary care centers, surgeons departments, in-patients ward. The analyzed data content...
The aim was to investigate occupational stress among newly graduated nurses in relation the workplace and clinical group supervision.Being a nurse is particularly stressful. What remains unclear whether supervision affect stress.A cross-sectional comparative study performed 2012. Data were collected by means of numerical scale measuring stress, questions about supervision. One hundred thirteen who had recently from three Swedish universities included study.The high but it differed...
We compared in a prospective, randomized, double-blinded study the analgesic efficacy of three drugs 120 ASA I and II patients scheduled to undergo ambulatory hand surgery with IV regional anesthesia. At discharge, oral tablets were prescribed as follows: tramadol 100 mg every 6 h, metamizol 1 g paracetamol (acetaminophen) h. Rescue medication consisted dextropropoxyphene on demand. Analgesic was evaluated by self-assessment pain intensity visual analog score at six different time intervals...
The previously developed Postoperative Recovery Profile (PRP) questionnaire is intended for self-assessment of general recovery after surgery. aim this study was to further evaluate the regarding construct validity and ability discriminate profiles between groups. Furthermore, item variables greatest importance during progress were investigated.Post-operative assessed period from discharge 12 months lower abdominal orthopaedic Construct evaluated by comparing assessments PRP a global scale....

Background : A questionnaire study conducted with the help of selected contact persons in 17 countries Europe attempted to create a picture practice acute pain management use spinal opioid analgesia (SOA). Methods was mailed anaesthesiologists 105 European hospitals. Depending on population, 5–10 hospitals from each country were by co‐ordinator. Results total 101 (96.2%) completed questionnaires returned. During 1 year SOA used 55117 patients (6.6% all in‐patient surgical procedures); these,...
Postoperative pain management relevant for specific surgical procedures is debated. The importance of evaluating with consideration given to type surgery and the patient’s perspective has been emphasized. In this prospective cohort study, we analysed outcome data from 607 patients in international PAIN OUT registry assessment comparison postoperative within 24 first hours after laparoscopic open colonic surgery. Patients group scored minimum at a higher level than (<mml:math...
Postoperative pain is a common problem following ambulatory breast augmentation surgery. This study was performed to compare standard of care (oral analgesics) with patient-controlled incisional regional analgesia (PCRA) for postoperative management at home 48 h. A second aim the analgesic efficacy ropivacaine 0.25% vs. 0.5%.Surgery under local anaesthesia and monitored anesthesia care. Sixty adults (ASA 1-2) were randomized one two groups. Patients in Group PCRA could self-administer 10 mL...
