Why should we treat
peri-operative pain?
 pain and suffering
  complications
  likelihood of chronic pain
  patient satisfaction
  speed of recovery  LOS cost
  productivity and quality of life

Adverse effects of poor pain
management

Cardiovascular
 Respiratory
 Gastrointestinal\Genitourinary
 Neuroendocrine\Metabolic
 Musculoskeletal
 Immunological
 Psychological
Current pain management
Pain can virtually be eliminated with minimal side
effects
BUT

70% inpatients still have moderate or severe pain
 40% outpatients have significant pain in 1st 24 h

Barriers to effective pain
management I
ANESTHESIOLOGIST

Inadequate pain education
 Underestimation analgesic requirements
 Failure to recognize patient variability
 Inadequate use local\regional techniques
 Complications from side effects
Barriers to effective pain
management II
PATIENT

Expectation of severe pain
 Inadequate pain education
 Analgesic side effects
 Fear of addiction


Expectation of severe pain
 Inadequate pain education
 Fear of causing analgesic side effects e.g
respiratory depression, addiction
 Insufficient time for assessment/ treatment
Barriers to effective pain
management IV
SURGEON
Belief that pain is ‘normal’ and not harmful
 Concern that pain may mask injury
 Inadequate pain education
 ‘Don’t ask don’t tell’
 Complications from side effects\addiction

Multimodal Analgesia
Using more than one drug, acting at a
different place or with a different
mechanism, each with a lower dose than if
used alone, thus providing better analgesia
with less side effects.

CAN WE MAKE A BETTER NSAID?

Keep analgesic potency
 Reduce side effects
NSAID
mechanism of action

inhibits cyclo-oxygenases (COX-1&2)
which convert arachidonic acid to
prostaglandins (PG)
 
PGE2 to sensitize nociceptors
 
PGE2, PGI2, TXA2 for homeostasis
