Backgrounds:The main objective of this study was to compare the pain control efficacy of local administration of Lidocaine with or without the nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug, Ketorolac, and local conventional Lidocaine injection in core needle biopsy of the musculoskeletal tumor.Methods:The current study was a randomized, double-blind controlled clinical trial that included 128 patients with suspected musculoskeletal tumors. Patients were randomly assigned to either the Ketorolac plus Lidocaine (n = 64) or Lidocaine group (n = 64). The Ketorolac – Lidocaine combination syringe contained 30 mg Ketorolac and 2% Lidocaine – adrenaline dosage, and the Lidocaine syringe contained 2% Lidocaine – adrenaline dosage. The level of pain after core needle biopsy was evaluated for each patient at 1, 6, 12, 24, 48, and >48 hours by a Visual Analog Scale (VAS). The mean VAS changes over time were compared between the Ketorolac plus Lidocaine and Lidocaine groups using a linear mixed model.Results:baseline information including mean age of patients in Lidocaine group (51.5 ± 19.4 years) and in Lidocaine – Ketorolac combination group (50.1 ± 18 years), diagnosis (malignant, benign, metastatic, infection), tumor location (upper and lower extremities, back), VAS score 1-hour post-operation (mild and moderate pain) were noted. The VAS score ratings were significantly lower in Lidocaine – Ketorolac combination group when compared to the Lidocaine group during the 1 to 24 hours post-operation time period.Conclusion:Patients receiving Lidocaine – Ketorolac combination dosage had significantly lower VAS scores, and these results confirm that local injection of Lidocaine – Ketorolac combination had a superior pain-controlling effect during the first 24 hours after the biopsy procedure in comparison to Lidocaine injection alone, as measured by VAS score scale. 相似文献
Background: Nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) have become a popular component of analgesia regimens, particularly in combination with narcotics. We questioned whether there might also be a place for their use in conjunction with regional anesthesia and whether there was a preferable route for NSAID administration. Methods: Ilioinguinal and field blocks were performed pre-operatively on seventy patients undergoing outpatient inguinal hernia repair. Patients were divided into a control group who received no ketorolac and four study groups who received a preoperative dose of 30 mg ketorolac by one of the following routes: IV, IM, PO, or intrawound (IW). The ketorolac in the IW group was mixed in the syringe with the local anesthetic used for the field block. IV and IM groups also received ketorolac at the time of the preoperative regional anesthesia and the PO group received the dose at least one hour preoperatively. All patients received a similar general anesthetic intraoperatively. Results: Postoperative pain scores and analgesic requirements were lowest for the IM, IV, and IW groups. Pain scores and analgesic requirements for the PO group were less than for the control group but more than for the other three groups. Analgesic efficacy therefore ranked: IM = IV = IW>PO>Control. Though no differences were found between groups in the time to discharge from the recovery room, the ease of nursing care paralleled the findings for pain scores and analgesia requirements. Conclusion: Beyond the analgesia provided by the regional anesthesia of the ilioinguinal and field blocks, the preoperative use of ketorolac further reduced postoperative pain scores and the need for additional postoperative analgesic medication. Comparable outcomes for the IV, IM, and IW groups indicate the lack of any benefit to concentrating the non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug at the wound (IW) or to achieving high blood levels rapidly (IV). In conclusion, ketorolac is a useful supplement to ilioinguinal plus field block regional anesthesia for hernia surgery and is most effective administered parenterally. 相似文献
Study Objective: To determine the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF): total plasma concentration ratio of ketorolac tromethamine following a single intramuscular (IM) dose.
Setting: General operating theaters of a medical school hospital.
Patients: 29 ASA physical status I and II patients scheduled to undergo elective surgery with spinal anesthesia.
Interventions: Patients were piemedicated with ketorolac 90 mg IM formulated as 3 ml of a 3% solution. Between 1 and
hours later, an intravenous infusion of 500 ml of compound sodium lactate was begun. Lumbar puncture was then performed, and 2 ml of CSF was collected prior to administration of the spinal anesthetic. In addition, a 5 ml sample of venous blood was taken within 5 minutes of the CSF sample.
Measurements and Main Results: Simultaneous plasma and CSF concentrations of ketorolac were measured between 62 and 277 minutes following IM administration in 29 patients undergoing spinal anesthesia. The CSF concentrations were on the order of 1,000 times less than the total plasma concentrations; free concentrations of ketorolac in plasma were estimated to be about 10 times more than those in CSF. There appeared to be no constant time factor relating the appearance of ketorolac in the CSF to its plasma concentration following IM administration.
Conclusion: Although the sensitivity of central prostaglandin synthetase systems to inhibition is unknown, it is unlikely from this pharmacokinetic data that there is a major central mechanism of analgesia for ketorolac. 相似文献
