Özet
Ketoprofen is a NSAIDs of the 2-aryl propionic acid class commonly used in the treatment of inflammatory rheumatic disease, acute pain and fever. Clinically, ketoprofen seems to reduce morphine requirements by 33 to 40% with ketoprofen's supposed central mechanism of analgesia. We evaluated the efficacy and safety of intravenous (IV) ketoprofen as an adjuvant to IV PCA (patient con- trolled analgesia) with tramadol after major gynecological cancer surgery for postoperative analgesia.
Fifty patients were enrolled in this double-blinded, randomized, placebo-controlled study. Patients were allocated randomly to two groups: group I (25 patients) served as a control group, with patients receiving saline; group II (25 patients) received ketopro- fen. Patients received an intravenous bolus of saline or 100 mg ketoprofen at the end of surgery. Then, PCA was given as a 20 mg tramadol bolus and 10 min lockout time. Pain relief was regularly assessed using a visual analog scale. Tramadol consumption, side effects, and patient satisfaction were noted during the 24 hours after the surgery.
No significant difference was observed in pain score, side-effects and patient satisfaction between the groups (p > 0.05). The cumulative PCA-tramadol consumption was lower in the ketoprofen-treated patients than placebo-treated patients (p < 0.05). Our results demonstrate that a single dose of 100 mg ketoprofen reduced tramadol consumption for treatment of postoperative pain after major gynecological cancer surgery.
