[Prevention of postoperative pain: pathogenetic bases and clinical aspects].
2000
: The trial aimed at development of pathogenetically sound complex of therapeutic measures to prevent postoperative pain or relieve it significantly included 1912 patients after elective surgical interventions on the lower part of the body. It is shown that basic factors in postoperative pain prevention are the following: a) adequate relief of preoperative pain syndrome; b) use of spinal or spinal-epidural anesthesia as the leading anesthesia method; c) preoperative epidural administration of opioid analgetic drugs; d) pre-, intra- and postoperative administrations of drugs affecting N-methyl-D-aspartate-receptors (ketamine, magnesium sulphate) as well as inhibitors of kininogenesis and prostaglandinogenesis. The success lies in a multimodality approach to prevention of postoperative pain syndrome, i.e. maximal eradication of all the factors promoting onset of pain during pre-, intra- and postoperative period with a simultaneous impact on peripheral and central mechanisms of acute pain. Such an approach resulted in a complete prevention of postoperative pain in 46.2% patients while the rest patients had much less intensive pain.
