Background:
Only a few studies have examined the effects of regular acetaminophen drip infusion as postoperative analgesia in lung cancer surgery.
Methods:
We consecutively collected the medical data of 282 patients who underwent complete resection for lung cancer and divided them into 2 groups according to their postoperative analgesia;248 patients with conventional analgesia( group C) and 34 who received acetaminophen( group A).
Results:
There was no significant difference in the surgical approach, length of surgical incision, or postoperative pain scale between the 2 groups. Postoperative vital signs and laboratory data were also not significantly different.
Conclusion:
Postoperative analgesia with acetaminophen was conducted safely, but its effect on postoperative pain did not differ from the conventional analgesia.
