A Study to Evaluate Prevalence of Hypogonadism in Patients with Chronic Pain Jacksonville, Fla. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the hormonal profile related to opioid-induced hypogonadism (OIH) in chronic pain patients before and after completing 3 weeks Interdisciplinary Pain Rehabilitation Program (IPRP) at Pain Rehabilitation Center (PRC) at Mayo Clinic/Florida. A Study of Quality of Life and Pain Control Before and After Endovascular Renal Denervation in Individuals with Refractory Kidney Pain Rochester, Minn. The purpose of this study is to examine patient reported outcomes including pain, quality of life, depression and impact on kidney blood flow before and after procedure to destroy the pain sensory nerves of the kidneys in patients with untreatable one or two sided kidney pain. A Study to Compare the Effectiveness of Adductor Canal Pain Catheters Following Total Knee Arthroplasty Jacksonville, Fla. This study aims to compare postoperative pain levels between three (3) treatment groups, using the Numerical Rating Scale (NRS). A Study to Analyze the Amount of Antibiotic Absorbed into Tissues Comparing Two Different Modes of Administration Scottsdale/Phoenix, Ariz. This study aims to investigate whether administration of vancomycin intravenously via a Bier block, typically a method for providing regional anesthesia in the upper extremity, leads to higher soft tissue and bone antibiotic concentrations compared to routine intravenous administration. Higher tissue concentrations could be desirable for prophylaxis in complex upper extremity reconstruction, or for treatment of difficult infections. A Study to Evaluate Performance Outcomes Following Interventional Treatment of Axial Low Back Pain Jacksonville, Fla. The purpose of this study is to determine if intra-articular lumbar facet and sacroiliac joint injections, or lumbar radiofrequency ablation (RFA) are effective in improving 1) patient-reported measures of pain, function and quality of life; 2) capacity; and 3) performance as measured by change in activity counts. Secondarily, the value of measuring capacity and performance following diagnostic medial branch blocks as a predictor of successful outcomes after lumbar RFA will be explored. A Study to Evaluate Unintended Prolonged Opioid Use Rochester, Minn. The primary purpose of this study is to identify patient characteristics that are associated with unintended prolonged opioid use (UPUO). A Study to Implement a Patient-Centered Pain Plan and Standardized Preoperative Pain Education for Patients Undergoing Lumbar Procedures Mankato, Minn. The purpose of this study is to develop a patient-centered pain plan and standardized preoperative pain education for patients undergoing lumbar procedures to increase postoperative pain control and patient satisfaction. Exparel Injection for Postoperative Orbital Pain Rochester, Minn. After surgery to remove the eye, either by enucleation or evisceration, patients have variable levels of pain for several postoperative days. Some patients have almost no discomfort while others require significant amounts of oral narcotics and report pain of 10 out of 10 on a numerical rating scale. The current operative standard is to infiltrate the eye socket with 0.5% bupivacaine during surgery leading to several hours of postoperative analgesia. In 2011, Pacira Pharmaceuticals released a bupivacaine liposomal injectable suspension (Exparel, 1.3%) which offers sustained release of bupivacaine giving postoperative pain control for up to 72 hours. This medication has been used in numerous surgeries including inguinal hernia repair, hemorrhoidectomy, bunionectomy, breast reconstruction, and orthopedic surgery, and the literature reports improved pain control, decreased use of oral opioids, and increased patient satisfaction. There are no reports of the use of Exparel in the ophthalmic literature. The investigators propose a randomized, controlled trial to compare the postoperative pain control offered by sustained release bupivacaine to that offered by standard plain bupivacaine after enucleation or evisceration. A Study to Evaluate Ultrasound-guided Erector Spinae Plane Blocks Rochester, Minn. The purpose of this study is to to demonstrate the feasibility of performing ultrasound-guided erector spinae plane blocks in the Emergency Department (ED) and Intensive Care Unit (ICU). A Study to Evaluate Droperidol Use in the Emergency Department and the Effect on QTc Rochester, Minn. The purpose of this study is to study the length of the QTc interval in patients receiving the standard of care dose of intravenous droperidol for headache or migraine, nausea, pain, and indications other than agitation over 30 minutes.
