Area of Science:

  • Anesthesiology
  • Surgical Pain Management
  • Pharmacology

Context:

  • Pain is a significant factor in surgical practice, impacting diagnosis, surgical procedures, and patient recovery.
  • Postoperative pain significantly affects patient experience, with over 50% reporting dissatisfaction with current management.
  • Despite available analgesics, effective control of surgical pain remains a challenge.

Purpose:

  • To evaluate the efficacy and tolerability of ketorolac tromethamine for postoperative pain control.
  • To assess patient satisfaction with ketorolac tromethamine in managing pain after surgery.

Summary:

  • A study involving 357 patients investigated the quality of postoperative analgesia.
  • Patients received ketorolac tromethamine 30 mg intravenously upon leaving the operating room, followed by intramuscular injections every 8 hours.
