Background: Cataract surgery is one of the most common eye surgeries, which is currently performed under topical anesthesia using sedative medications. Dexmedetomidine and acetaminophen are good candidates for analgesia in other circumstances, however, this study aimed to evaluate the effect of dexmedetomidine or acetaminophen infusion and normal saline (NS) alone compared with the control group on the severity of pain in cataract surgery.
Materials And Methods: In this parallel randomized controlled clinical trial, the effect of dexmedetomidine or acetaminophen infusion and NS on level of pain, vital signs, recovery status, and surgeon satisfaction during cataract surgery were assessed.
Background: Considering that patients with opioid dependence are at higher risk of inadequate sedation during operations, and the rescue analgesia in these patients are usually greater than the general population; the aim of this study was comparison of sedation quality of dexmedetomidine and morphine in patients with opioid use disorder undergoing cataract surgery.
Methods: This clinical trial was conducted on 60 patients with opioid use disorder underwent cataract surgery that were referred to Feiz Hospital, Isfahan, Iran in 2018. Patients were randomly divided into two groups as the dexmedetomidine group started 1 μg/kg dexmedetomidine in 10 minutes before surgery and then continued with 0.
Background: The study was aimed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of fentanyl and pethidine on the sedative quality of patients who underwent phacoemulsification cataract surgery with Propofol.
Materials And Methods: In this double-blind randomized controlled clinical trial, patients who were candidates for elective phacoemulsification surgery with topical anesthesia were enrolled. The selected patients were randomly allocated into the two groups for receiving sedation with Propofol-Pethidine (PP) or propofol-fentanyl (PF) combinations.
