[Infusional therapy: an alternative for shouder pain post-laparoscopy].
Cirugia y Cirujanos 2013 May
INTRODUCTION: Neuraxial anesthesia in upper abdominal laparoscopic surgery decreases perioperative morbidity and mortality. However, shoulder pain is common and difficult to control. Use of a major opioid (e.g., fentanyl) for the control of this event may depress respiratory function. This is why we believe that a safe and effective therapeutic control of this disease pain is a multimodal analgesic scheme which we have called infusional therapy.
OBJECTIVE: To compare various schemes for controlling shoulder pain secondary to pneumoperitoneum.
METHODS: Nonrandomized clinical trial with 56 patients ASA I-II divided into four groups undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Group I (n= 15) managed with ketorolac 1 mg kg, group II (n = 12) ketoprofen 100 mg, group III (n = 14) ketoprofen 50 mg + 50 mg tramadol, and group IV (n = 15) ketoprofen 100 mg + 100 mg tramadol. The following ariables were analyzed: presence and intensity of pain, analgesia rescue and operative time.
RESULTS: Group I had more shoulder pain events compared to other groups (p= 0.002) in the same way the group IV required less rescue analgesia (p= 0.034).
CONCLUSION: preemptive analgesia to infusional therapy with ketoprofen-tramadol at doses of 100 mg each is safe for laparoscopic surgery.
