Low-Intensity Laser Therapy As a Method to Reduce Stress Responses after Septoplasty

Comparison of Acute Pain Syndrome after Surgical Interventions in the Nasal Cavity and Rhinoplasty

Comparison of acute pain syndrome after septoplasty, rhinoplasty, and rhinoseptoplasty was carried out. It is shown that the intensity of acute pain is higher in patients after rhinoseptoplasty in the first 3-6 h after surgery.

Effect of Anesthesia on Postoperative Pain in Patients after Septoplasty

The aim of the study was to assess acute pain syndrome in patients after septoplasty using different tactics of general anesthesia. All patients received local anesthesia with 2% procaine solution. In group 1 (95 patients), premedication with 2% promedol solution and 60 mg of ketorolac in the evening was used; group 2 (72 patients) was administered with fentanyl, propofol, cisatracuria besylate, tranexamic acid, atropine, and metoclopramide; and group 3 (89 patients) received atracuria besylate, sodium thiopental, nitrous oxide, and halothane. In groups 2 and 3, 100 mg of ketoprofen was administered intramuscularly in the evening on the day of surgery. Anterior tamponade was performed with parolon tampons in glove rubber. In groups 1 and 2, the tamponade was removed on day 2, and in group 3 it was removed 1 day after surgery. Pain syndrome was assessed on 1, 3, and 6 h and on days 1 and 2 after surgery. It was found that the scheme of anesthesia in group 2 is the most preferable, and the nasal tamponade must be removed on the 2nd day after the surgery.
