Randomized Controlled Trial
Can the efficacy of subacromial corticosteroid injection be improved using a single- session mobilization treatment in subacromial impingement syndrome? A randomized single-blind controlled trial.
The objective in this study is to assess the short-term effects of a single-session mobilization in addition to subacromial corticosteroid (SACS) injection in impingement syndrome. ⋯ Addition of single-session mobilization might provide rapid improvement in flexion and abduction as well as early pain relief following SACS injections.

The effects of pregabalin and adductor canal block on postoperative pain in arthroscopic anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction
To determine the effectiveness of pregabalin and adductor canal block on opioid consumption, postoperative pain, and fast-tracking. ⋯ Preoperative pregabalin (150 mg) reduced postoperative opioid consumption as much as adductor canal block in patients undergoing anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction. The first analgesic requirement was earlier in group C than in groups P and A. In addition, pregabalin can prolong the duration of spinal sensory block and shorten the time required to achieve high fast-tracking scores. We recommend the use of both methods as a part of multimodal analgesia.
