This study compared two ways to numb the knee after surgery: a standard nerve block versus a standard block plus an extra block for the back of the knee. Fifty adults having knee arthroscopy were randomly assigned to one of the two methods. Researchers measured pain levels, paink…

This study looked at whether a special numbing injection (IPACK block) combined with a steroid shot can reduce pain in people with advanced knee osteoarthritis. 98 adults over age 40 with severe knee pain despite other treatments received the combination. Researchers measured pai…

This study looked at how intravenous lidocaine affects sleep and quality of life in 51 people with fibromyalgia who still had pain and sleep problems despite other treatments. Researchers measured pain, sleep quality, and overall impact of the condition. The goal was to see if th…

This study tested whether adding scapular stabilization exercises to standard physiotherapy helps people with shoulder impingement syndrome. Sixty adults with shoulder pain were randomly assigned to either the special exercises or routine physiotherapy for 12 weeks. Researchers m…

This study tested two different ultrasound techniques combined with standard physical therapy for knee osteoarthritis. 46 adults with knee pain and stiffness received one of the two ultrasound methods or physical therapy alone. Researchers measured pain, stiffness, and function b…

This study looked at whether a targeted ultrasound-guided nerve block (SPSIPB) can reduce pain in people with postherpetic neuralgia, a chronic pain condition that can linger after shingles. Researchers reviewed records of 34 adults who received this injection and measured pain l…

This study tested whether a Quadroiliac Plane (QIP) block, a numbing injection near the hip, can reduce pain and opioid use after femur fracture surgery. Thirty adults were randomly assigned to receive either the QIP block or standard care. Researchers measured pain scores and fe…

This study compared two types of nerve blocks—Quadroiliac Plane Block and PENG Block—for pain relief after femur fracture surgery. 52 adults were randomly assigned to receive one of the blocks. Researchers measured pain scores and how much opioid painkiller patients needed in the…

This study tested a treatment called pulsed radiofrequency, which uses gentle electrical pulses to calm the nerve that supplies most of the shoulder's feeling. It was given to 32 patients over 65 with frozen shoulder (adhesive capsulitis), a condition that causes pain and stiffne…

This study tested two different ultrasound-guided injection methods to block the suprascapular nerve in 100 adults with chronic shoulder pain. The goal was to see which approach provides better pain relief. Participants had pain lasting over 3 months that wasn't helped by standar…

This study tested whether spraying a numbing medicine (lidocaine) on the cervix before inserting an IUD can reduce pain. Researchers enrolled 90 women aged 18-45 who wanted an IUD. The goal was to see if the spray makes the procedure more comfortable.

This study reviewed records of 201 adults who received a common back pain injection (transforaminal epidural steroid injection) to see if using sedation made a difference. Researchers compared patient satisfaction, pain scores, radiation exposure, and complication rates between t…

This study looked at 40 ICU patients to see if a heart ultrasound before dialysis could predict dangerous drops in blood pressure. Doctors measured heart function using several ultrasound markers. The goal is to help plan safer dialysis for critically ill patients.

This study tested whether showing patients videos of different pain expressions helps them describe their pain better than the usual 0-10 number scale. 240 adults who just had surgery tried both methods and shared which they preferred. The goal was to see if videos make pain asse…

This study looked at whether having low magnesium in the body makes steroid injections for back pain less effective. Researchers followed 118 people with back pain who received these injections and measured their pain and disability levels. The goal was to see if magnesium defici…

This study looked at whether the uterocervical angle (the angle between the uterus and cervix) measured by ultrasound can predict if a copper IUD will shift out of its correct position. Researchers studied 123 women aged 21-45 who had a T-Cu 380A IUD inserted. They compared the u…
