Intraoperative wound instillation of ropivacaine extraperitoneally subfascially fails to provide analgesia after remifentanil–isoflurane for abdomina…

2005

Summary Background Intraoperative local anaesthetic wound instillation has been shown previously to provide analgesia after abdominal surgery. This pain relief may be important, if remifentanil is used for general anaesthesia, because the rapid offset of action may mean that there is not enough analgesia at the end of surgery and in the recovery period. The aim of this randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind study was to evaluate the analgesic efficacy of preventative wound instillation of ropivacaine after abdominal hysterectomy (AH). We hypothesized that this approach will significantly reduce postoperative morphine consumption. Patients and methods After ethics approval, 40 patients…

ESRA19-0275 The efficacy and safety of ultrasound-guided superficial cervical plexus block (SCPB) in patient undergoing thyroid surgery: a case report

2019

Background and aims The SCPB provides effective anesthesia and analgesia for the head and neck region. CPBs can be performed more safely and accurately under ultrasound guidance, which is used to easily identify various important landmarks. This case report was carried out to assess the efficacy of SCPB in reducing the intra and postoperative use of opioids/analgesics to control pain due to thyroidectomy. Methods Case report: 45-year-old woman, ASA II, underwent left hemithyroidectomy under general anesthesia (sevoflorane 2% and remifentanil TCI 0.7–1 ng/ml). Ultrasound-guided left superficial cervical plexus block (SCPB) was performed using levobupivacaine 10 ml 0.25%. Pain score was measu…

Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Study to Assess the Efficacy of Nonopioid Analgesics on Pain following Arthroscopic Knee Surgery

2012

Purpose. In a randomized, double-blind trial, the efficacy of nonopioid analgesics on postoperative piritramide consumption was compared for pain relief during the first 24 h in patients recovering from arthroscopic knee surgery. Methods. 120 patients were treated with normal saline and/or one of the nonopioid analgesics (parecoxib, metamizole, paracetamol) in addition to piritramide using the PCA pump. Beginning in the postanesthesia care unit (PACU), patients were asked to quantify their pain experience at rest while piritramide consumption was recorded. Results. Piritramide consumption upon arrival in the PACU was high in all groups. However, cumulative consumption in the parecoxib group…
