Pain is a complex and multi-faceted human perception and several factors could dampen the pain. Therefore, we aimed to comparison of addition of neostigmine and tramadol to 1.5 % lidocaine with paracervical block in reduce of post-operative pain in colporrhaphy. This study was a randomized and double-blind clinical trial for 108 patients’ as candidate for colporrhaphy. Patients were randomly divided in three groups (Neostigmine, tramadol and control).We recorded pain in 2 and 6 and 12 hours after surgery, duration of analgesia and mean of use narcotic drug in 24 hours after surgery for all patients. Mean of narcotic drug used in 24 hours after surgery in neostigmine group was more than tramadol group(p=0/01).Pain in 2 and 6 and 12 hours after surgery in neostigmine group was more than tramadol group (p=0/01). Duration of analgesia in tramadol group was over neostigmine group and also, it was in neostigmine group was more than placebo (p=0/01).Taken together, tramadol could reduce pain in 2 and 6 and 12 hours after surgery and mean of narcotic drug used in 24 hours after surgery and increase duration of analgesia.

ABSTRACT Objective: To compare the anesthetic techniques using propofol and fentanyl versus midazolam and remifentanil associated with a paracervical block with lidocaine in performing ultrasound-guided transvaginal oocyte aspiration. Methods: A randomized double-blind clinical trial (#RBR-8kqqxh) performed in 61 women submitted to assisted reproductive treatment. The patients were divided into two groups: anesthetic induction with 1mcg/kg of fentanyl associated with 1.5mg/kg of propofol (FP Group, n=32), in comparison with anesthetic induction using 0.075mg/kg of midazolam associated with 0.25mcg/kg/min of remifentanil, and paracervical block with 3mL of 2% lidocaine (MRPB Group, n=29). Main outcome measures: human reproduction outcomes, modified Aldrete-Kroulik index, hemodynamic parameters, and salivary cortisol. Results: The results revealed a higher number of embryos formed in the FP Group (p50=2 versus 1; p=0.025), gestation rate two times higher in the FP Group (44.4% versus 22.2%; p=0.127), less time to reach AK=10 in the MRPB Group (p50=10 versus 2; p<0.001), and lower mean of hemodynamic parameters in the MRPB Group (p<0.05). Conclusion: Anesthesia with fentanyl and propofol as well as with midazolam, remifentanil, and paracervical block offered satisfactory anesthetic conditions when performing assisted reproduction procedures, providing comfort for the patient and physician.

Abstract Background: Pneumonia caused by the ventilator is the most common acquired infection in the intensive care unit, which increases the morbidity and mortality of the patients. Eucalyptus plant has antiseptic properties. Therefore, the present study investigates the effect of eucalyptus incense on prevention of pneumonia in patients with endotracheal tube in the intensive care unit. Methods: This clinical trial study was performed on 100 patients under ventilation in two intervention and control groups in Imam Reza Hospital, Kermanshah, Iran in 2018. The patients in the intervention group, Eucalyptus solution 2% and in the control group received 10 cc distilled water as an inhaler three times a day. The results of the two groups were compared to the incidence of pulmonary infections based on CPIS criteria and compared with SPSS version 19 software. Results: The incidence of late pneumonia was significantly lower in the intervention group (P=0.02). The onset of pneumonia significantly later in the intervention group than the control group (P=0.01). The prevalence of Klebsiella, Candida albicans, and Staphylococcus aureus was significantly decreased in the intervention group (P=0.02) (P=0.04) (P=0.01). Conclusion: The results of this study showed that eucalyptus inhalation is effective in reducing the incidence of pulmonary infection in patients under ventilation. It is recommended that these products be used to prevent pulmonary infections in these patients.

ABSTRACT Aim The present study was designed to assess the effect of toothpaste containing neem on plaque and gingivitis. Materials and methods Randomized, double blind clinical trial was designed. Thirty first year dental students volunteered to participate in the study. Neem containing tooth paste was used as an intervention. Clinical examination was carried out using Silness and Loe plaque index (PI) and Loe and Silness gingival index (GI). Independent t-test and paired t-test was used for the intergroup and the intragroup comparison. Results Out of 30 participants, 22 (73.3%) were females and eight (26.7%) were males. A statistically significant difference was found between the test and control group after intervention with respect to the PI and GI. Conclusion Neem containing toothpaste can be used as an adjunct for maintenance of oral hygiene. Clinical significance Regular brushing with neem toothpaste might act as an adjunct to maintenance of good oral hygiene, and thus improve oral health.
