J Perianesth Nurs 2024:S1089-9472(24)00124-2. [PMID: 38980239 DOI: 10.1016/j.jopan.2024.03.025] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/06/2023] [Revised: 03/20/2024] [Accepted: 03/29/2024] [Indexed: 07/10/2024]
Abstract
PURPOSE To study the analgesic effects and side effects of a transdermal lappaconitine (TLA) patch, ibuprofen suspension (IS), and TLA combined with IS (TLACIS) after adenoidectomy and tonsillectomy. DESIGN Prospective, randomized clinical trial. METHODS The patients were randomized into three groups defined by different analgesic drug regimens: the TLA group, the IS group, and the TLACIS group. Pain scores at 2, 12, and 24 hours after surgery and adverse-event reports within the first postoperative week were collected. RESULTS Ultimately, this study included 102 cases in the TLA group, 101 cases in the IS group, and 101 cases in the TLACIS group. At 2 hours after surgery, the pain scores of the TLA and the TLACIS groups were both significantly lower than that of the IS group (all P < .05). At 12 and 24 hours after surgery, the pain score of the TLACIS group was significantly lower than those of the TLA and IS groups (all P < .05); furthermore, the pain score of the IS group was significantly lower than that of the TLA group (P < .05). Within 1 week after the operation, there was no significant difference in the incidence of adverse events. CONCLUSIONS The addition of a TLA patch can speed the onset of analgesia. In terms of analgesic effects, IS alone is more advantageous than TLA alone, while the combination of TLA and IS has the best analgesic effect. No significant differences were found in the incidence of adverse events among the three regimens.

Reduced side effects and improved pain management by continuous ketorolac infusion with patient-controlled fentanyl injection compared with single fentanyl administration in pelviscopic gynecologic surgery: a randomized, double-blind, controlled study. Korean J Anesthesiol 2024; 77:77-84. [PMID: 37312413 PMCID: PMC10834721 DOI: 10.4097/kja.23217] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/21/2023] [Revised: 06/09/2023] [Accepted: 07/26/2023] [Indexed: 06/15/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND A combination of opioids and adjunctive drugs can be used for intravenous patient-controlled analgesia (PCA) to minimize opioid-related side effects. We investigated whether two different analgesics administered separately via a dual-chamber PCA have fewer side effects with adequate analgesia than a single fentanyl PCA in gynecologic pelviscopic surgery. METHODS This prospective, double-blind, randomized, and controlled study included 68 patients who underwent pelviscopic gynecological surgery. Patients were allocated to either the dual (ketorolac and fentanyl delivered by a dual-chamber PCA) or the single (fentanyl alone) group. Postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) and analgesic quality were compared between the two groups at 2, 6, 12, and 24 h postoperatively. RESULTS The dual group showed a significantly lower incidence of PONV during postoperative 2-6 h (P = 0.011) and 6-12 h (P = 0.009). Finally, only two patients (5.7%) in the dual group and 18 (54.5%) in the single group experienced PONV during the entire postoperative 24 h and could not maintain intravenous PCA (odds ratio: 0.056, 95% CI [0.007, 0.229], P < 0.001). Despite the administration of less fentanyl via intravenous PCA during the postoperative 24 h in the dual group than in the single group (66.0 ± 77.8 vs. 383.6 ± 70.1 μg, P < 0.001), postoperative pain had no significant intergroup difference. CONCLUSIONS Two different analgesics, continuous ketorolac and intermittent fentanyl bolus, administered via dual-chamber intravenous PCA, showed fewer side effects with adequate analgesia than conventional intravenous fentanyl PCA in gynecologic patients undergoing pelviscopic surgery.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIM Pain after soft tissue injuries in and around the ankle is a troublesome process in terms of patient comfort and mobilization. The aim of this study was to compare the analgesic efficacy of intravenous ibuprofen and intravenous tenoxicam in patients with acute musculoskeletal pain due to ankle injury. METHODS We conducted a prospective, double-blind, randomized controlled study in a tertiary hospital. The patients were divided into two groups as those administered IV 400 mg ibuprofen and IV 20 mg tenoxicam. After the treatment of the patients, visual analog scale (VAS) scores were recorded at 15, 30, 60, and 120 min. VAS scores were compared with the effectiveness of drugs, their side effects, and the need for rescue drugs. RESULTS One hundred and twenty-four patients were included in the study. There were 62 patients in the tenoxicam group and 62 patients in the ibuprofen group. When VAS scores were compared, it was found that the VAS scores of the ibuprofen group were statistically significantly lower (p < 0.001). When the ΔVAS scores were compared, it was observed that the ΔVAS scores of the ibuprofen group were statistically significantly higher from 30 min (p < 0.001). There was a statistically significant difference in favor of ibuprofen between the two drug groups in terms of the need for rescue analgesics (p < 0.001). Conclusıon. The analgesic efficacy of intravenous ibuprofen and tenoxicam is equal after an ankle injury. However, after 30 min of drug administration, ibuprofen provides more effective analgesia than tenoxicam.

Abstract
Background Apicoectomy is one of the procedures that are most frequently performed by specialists in oral surgery. This paper presents an analysis of Ibuprofen consumption after apicoectomy and factors such as patient's age, sex and type of resected tooth. Ibuprofen intake is treated as a quantitative indicator of pain sensation. Material and Methods The presented data cover 89 operations with 98 resected teeth. All those apicoectomies were performed by one and the same specialist in oral surgery and all patients were scheduled for a control examination on the day following the intervention. The reported Ibuprofen intake was recorded and analyzed afterwards. Results The mean number of consumed Ibuprofen 400 mg tablets, necessary to eliminate the pain was 1.71 (SD±1.33). Gender was not established as responsible for statistically significant differences. Poor negative statistical correlation was established between age and number of consumed tablets. Older patients used a smaller amount of analgesics. The intake after resection of mandibular molars was statistically significantly higher versus that of the other teeth groups. Eighteen of the patients did not consume any analgesic tablets, constituting 18.3% of the whole group. Two patients needed 5 tablets which was the greatest reported intake. Conclusions Apicoectomy leads to low Ibuprofen intake. The sex is not a statistically significant factor for Ibuprofen use. Poor negative correlation is observed between age and the amount of administered analgesics. This consumption is increased at resection of mandibular molars compared to that for other teeth groups. Almost one fifth of the patients did not need analgesics during the first postoperative day. Key words:Apicoectomy, postoperative pain, Ibuprofen, oral surgery.

Abstract
Objective To evaluate the analgesic efficacy and safety of different does of intravenous ibuprofen (IVIB) in the treatment of postoperative acute pain. Methods Patients with an intravenous (IV) patient-controlled analgesia device after abdominal or orthopedic surgery were randomly divided into placebo, IVIB 400 mg, and IVIB 800 mg groups. The first dosage of study medicines was given intravenously 30 minutes (min) before surgery ended, followed by six hours (h) intervals for a total of eight doses following surgery. The demographic characteristics and procedure data, cumulative morphine consumption, the visual analog scale (VAS), the area under the curve (AUC) of VAS, patient satisfaction score (PSS), the rates of treatment failure (RTF), and adverse events (AEs) and serious adverse event (SAEs) were recorded during the period of trial. Result A total of 345 patients were enrolled in the full analysis set (FAS), and of 326 participants were valid data set (VDS). Demographic characteristics, disease features, and medical history of patients were not significantly different between groups. Total morphine consumption of the IVIB 400 mg group (11.14 ± 7.14 mg; P = 0.0011) and the IVIB 800 mg group (11.29 ± 6.45 mg; P = 0.0014) was significantly reduced compared with the placebo group (14.51 ± 9.19 mg) for 24 h postoperatively, there was no significant difference between the IVIB 400 mg and IVIB 800 mg groups (P = 0.9997). The placebo group had significantly higher VAS and the AUCs of VAS than those in the IVIB 400 mg and the IVIB 800 mg groups at rest and movement for 24 h postoperatively (P < 0.05), and there was no significant difference between the IVIB 400 mg and IVIB 800 mg groups (P > 0.05). RTF was slightly higher in the placebo group than IVIB 400 mg group and 800 mg group, and no statistical significance (P < 0.690). PSS in the IVIB 400 mg (P = 0.0092) and the IVIB 800 mg groups (P = 0.0011) was higher than the placebo group for pain management, there was also no significant difference between the IVIB 400 mg and IVIB 800 mg groups (P = 0.456). The incidence of RTF (P = 0.690) and AEs (P > 0.05) were not different among the three groups. Conclusion Intermittent IV administration of ibuprofen 400 mg or 800 mg within 24 h after surgery in patients undergoing abdominal and orthopedic surgery significantly decreased morphine consumption and relieved pain, without increasing the incidence of AEs.

Abstract
Backgrounds/Aims Postoperative pain management is a key to enhanced recovery after surgery. The aim of this study was to evaluate clinical effect of preoperative intravenous (IV) non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) on relief of postoperative pain in patients after laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Methods This single center, retrospective study was conducted between September 2019 and May 2020. A total of 163 patients were divided into two groups: Ibuprofen group (preoperative IV ibuprofen, n = 77) and Ketorolac group (preoperative IV ketorolac, n = 86). The primary outcome was postoperative pain score measured immediately in the recovery room. Results There was no difference in demographic characteristics between the two groups of patients. Postoperative pain score measured immediately in the recovery room was significantly higher in the Ibuprofen group than in the Ketorolac group (mean value: 5.09 vs. 4.61; p = 0.027). The number of patients who needed analgesics immediately in the recovery room was also higher in the Ibuprofen group than in the Ketorolac group (28 [36.4%] vs. 18 [20.9%]; p = 0.036). Conclusions In this study, preoperative IV injection with ketorolac reduced postoperative pain and analgesic requirement in the recovery room more effectively than that with ibuprofen. However, both showed similar effects on peak pain and pain at discharge. Numbers of patients requiring additional analgesics were also similar between the two groups.

Abstract
Background Trial sequential analysis (TSA) is a recent cumulative meta-analysis method used to weigh type I and II errors and to estimate when the effect is large enough to be unaffected by further studies. The aim of this study was to illustrate possible TSA scenarios and their significance using meta-analyses published in the Korean Journal of Anesthesiology (KJA) as working material. Methods We performed a systematic medical literature search for meta-analyses published in the KJA. TSA was performed on each main outcome, estimating the required sample size on the calculated effect size for the intervention, considering a type I error of 5% and a power of 90% or 99%. Results Six meta-analyses with a total of ten main outcomes were included in the analysis. Seven TSAs confirmed the results of the meta-analyses. However, only three of them reached the required sample size. In the two TSAs, the cumulative z-lines were not statistically significant. One TSA boundary for effect was reached with the 90% analysis, but not with the 99% analysis. Conclusions In TSA, a meta-analysis pooled effect may be established to assess if the cumulative sample size is large enough. TSA can be used to add strength to the conclusions of meta-analyses; however, pre-registration of the TSA protocol is of paramount importance. This study could be useful to better understand the use of TSA as an additional statistical tool to improve meta-analysis quality.
