Abstract：
:To delineate dose ranges, utilization patterns, and the frequency and types of problems encountered, we retrospectively reviewed the medical records of 46 patients with sickle hemoglobinopathies who used patient-controlled analgesia (PCA) a total of 92 times for the management of vasooclusive pain. Patients varied widely in the drug administered, use of basal infusion, individual dose, and total amount of drug received. On the day of heaviest use, the average maximum hourly dose was equivalent to 0.09 mg/kg of morphine. In this study, 11 patients and two families disliked PCA, one patient had respiratory compromise, and one patient tampered with the machine. Patient satisfaction with PCA probably reflects interactions among the psychosocial impact of chronic illness and chronic pain, individual psychological and temperamental factors, environmental contingencies, and the expectations and beliefs of the family and the health-care professionals. Based on this experience, recommendations can be proposed for the use of PCA in this condition.
