REZUMAT THE ROLE OF MULTIMODAL ANALGESIA IN PATIENTS WITH TUBAL PATHOLOGY TREATED BY LAPAROSCOPIC SURGERY Laura Gavril1, Adrian Cotirlet2, Florentina Pricop3 Objective: The aim of the study is to highlight the benefits of multimodal analgesia in the treatment of postoperative pain in patients with tubal pathology operated by laparoscopic surgery compared to classical postoperative pain manageme...

Implications for practice and research: Utilisation of continuous femoral nerve blockade (FNB) following knee replacement surgery can provide superior pain relief and fewer side effects, compared to traditional patient-controlled opioid analgesia. Further research is needed to compare the effectiveness of FNB to other pain management strategies, such as local anaesthetic infiltration and multim...

Cesarean deliveries can be associated with moderate to severe postoperative pain. Appropriate management of pain is important because it results in better patient satisfaction, earlier mobilization, and improved maternal-infant bonding. There are many individual options for treatment of pain; however, multimodal analgesic therapy has become the mainstay of treatment. In this article, the epidem...

PURPOSE The optimal management of postoperative pain using multimodal analgesia is a key component of Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS). Pain has adverse clinical implications on postoperative recovery, including prolonging the time to recovery milestones and length of hospital stay. Moreover, the ubiquity of opioids in postoperative analgesic regimens results in adverse effects, such as s...

Inadequate pain management after total knee arthroplasty (TKA) impedes recovery, increases the risk of postoperative complications, and results in patient dissatisfaction. Although the preemptive use of multimodal measures is currently considered the principle of pain management after TKA, no gold standard pain management protocol has been established. Peripheral nerve blocks have been used as ...

BACKGROUND Pain management is integral to the management of hip fracture. PURPOSE To review the benefits and harms of pharmacologic and nonpharmacologic interventions for managing pain after hip fracture. DATA SOURCES 25 electronic databases (January 1990 to December 2010), gray literature, trial registries, and reference lists, with no language restrictions. STUDY SELECTION Multiple revi...

BACKGROUND Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is a common procedure resulting in significant post-operative pain. Percutaneous cryoneurolysis targeting the infrapatellar branch of the saphenous nerve and anterior femoral cutaneous nerve could relieve post-operative knee pain by temporarily blocking sensory nerve conduction. METHODS A retrospective chart review of 100 patients who underwent TKA was...

Even with the rapid development of pediatric postoperative pain management, pediatric patients have remained undertreated for postoperative pain because of difficulty in pain assessment and concerns regarding side effects of opioid analgesics. Although there are no perfect pain assessment techniques and no absolutely safe analgesics, proper monitoring and an individualized analgesic plan after ...

The majority of patients who have undergone surgery experience moderate-to-severe postoperative pain. Asian tend to under-report pain and are consequently under-treated. Poor management increases the risk morbidity, prolonged opioid use, lower quality life outcomes chronic post-surgical Multimodal analgesia is cornerstone management. Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs considered a core compo...

Although the long-term results following traditional total joint arthroplasty are excellent, postoperative pain management has been suboptimal. Under-treatment of pain is a focus of growing concern to the orthopedic community. Poorly controlled postoperative pain leads to undesirable outcomes, including immobility, stiffness, myocardial ischemia, atelectasis, pneumonia, deep venous thrombosis, ...
