Post Operative Pain Management in Whipples' Procedure -Epidural Analgesia Versus Intravenous Analgesia

Novel concepts of analgesia for post operative pain: Multimodal analgesia

Post-operative Analgesia in Opioid Dependent Patients: Comparison of ‎Intravenous Morphine and Sublingual Buprenorphine

Background: Acute and chronic pain is prevalent in patients with opioid dependence. Lack of knowledge concerning the complex relationship between pain, opioid use, and withdrawal syndrome can account for the barriers encountered for pain management. This study was designed to evaluate the efficacy of sublingual (SL) buprenorphine for post-operative analgesia, compared with intravenous (IV) morp...

Labor analgesia in preeclampsia: remifentanil patient controlled intravenous analgesia versus epidural analgesia.

BACKGROUND Epidural analgesia is considered to be the preferred method of labor analgesia in preeclamptic patients. Systemic opioids are another good effective, easy to administer alternative but may cause maternal and fetal respiratory depression. Remifentanil's rapid onset and offset of effects, should make it an ideal drug for the intermittent painful contraction during labor. Method. 30 pre...

pain control and acth changes in postoperative intravenous analgesia versus epidural analgesia in limb orthopedic surgery patients

background: the aim of this study is comparing acth changes in epidural and intravenous analgesia technique after lower limb orthopedic surgery.methods: in a randomized clinical trial in hazrat rasool  akram hospital during 1387-88 , 60 patients candidate for surgery on the lower extremities were randomly allocated to receive either postoperative analgesia  with epidural analgesia (pcea) or iv ...

Patient controlled analgesia versus conventional analgesia for postoperative pain

  Purpose: Patients may control postoperative pain by self-administration of intravenous opioids   using devices designed for this purpose (patient controlled analgesia or PCA). This study set out   to determine whether any of the two opioid administrations (i.e. PCA or conventional analgesia)   would provide superior pain relief among patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy   or not. ...
