  • Pharmacology

Context:

  • Postoperative pain management presents significant challenges.
  • Patient-controlled analgesia (PCA) offers a tailored approach to pain relief.

Purpose:

  • To describe the efficacy and safety of patient-controlled intravenous analgesia (PCIA) using morphine for postoperative pain control.
  • To evaluate patient outcomes and satisfaction with PCIA.

Summary:

  • Sixty patients received 0.1% morphine via microprocessor-controlled infusion pumps for postoperative pain.
  • A loading dose was followed by patient-administered boluses, with mean total dosages ranging from 30-85 mg.
  • Excellent pain scores (0-2 on a 5-point scale) were achieved in 92% of patients.

Impact:
