Abstract:
BACKGROUND:Inguinal hernia repair is a common procedure, and can be performed under spinal anesthesia. Although adequate analgesia is crucial to postoperative recovery, the optimal protective analgesic regimen remains to be established. PURPOSE:To investigate the effects of preoperative etoricoxib within a protective multimodal analgesic regimen with respect to pain control following open inguinal hernia repair. METHODS:Sixty adult patients undergoing open inguinal hernia repair participated in a single-center, randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled trial in a general academic medical center. The intervention group (n = 30) received 120 mg of oral etoricoxib 1 h preoperatively, and 10-12 mg bupivacaine with 25 μg fentanyl as spinal anesthesia. The control group (n = 30) received oral placebo 1 h preoperatively, and spinal anesthesia as above. Postoperative Visual Analog Scale pain scores at rest and on active straight leg raise were recorded and analyzed. RESULTS:Resting pain scores were significantly lower in the intervention than the control group at 16 h, 24 h, and on discharge (3.00 vs. 4.35; 1.57 vs. 4.00; 1.24 vs. 3.76, respectively; p < 0.05). Pain scores on active straight leg raise were significantly lower in the intervention than the control group at 16 h, 24 h, and on discharge (3.85 vs. 5.59, p < 0.01; 2.84 vs. 4.90, p < 0.05; 3.55 vs. 5.32, p < 0.05, respectively). CONCLUSION:The addition of etoricoxib to spinal anesthesia as a multimodal protective regimen can improve pain control after inguinal hernia repair. The optimal dose and applicability to other operations remains to be established.

杂志文章,随机对照试验abstract:OBJECTIVES:When physicians become patients, they may expect special privileges, extra attention from caregivers, and non-routine treatments. Consequently, physician patients may not be treated per routine-which possibly worsens care rather than improving it. We thus tested the primary hypothesis that in-hospital mortal...
