Randomized Controlled Trial
The efficacy of preemptive ketamine and ropivacaine in pediatric patients: a placebo controlled, double-blind.
We have evaluated and compared the preemptive efficacy of intravenous ketamine with placebo and caudal ropivacaine in pediatric patients going under elective hernia repair. ⋯ Caudal application of ropivacaine in appropriate doses provides satisfactory peroperative and postoperative analgesia with no side effects in pediatric patient group going under elective hernia repair where as ketamine with the applied doses has no preemptive effect.

Randomized Controlled Trial
[Does iv paracetamol have preemptive analgesic effect on lumber disc surgeries?].
In this study, postoperative analgesic effects of intravenous paracetamol administration in lumbar discectomy patients were evaluated. After the approval of ethic committee, 90 patients undergoing lumbar disc hernia operation randomly divided into 3 groups. After standart general anesthesia, patients in group I received 1 gr i.v. paracetamol infusion 15 minutes before the induction, patients in group II received i.v. ⋯ First analgesic requirement time, total morphine consumption and side effects were recorded. In group I and II, VAS scores, 24 h morphine consumption and first morphine requirement times were significantly different comparing to group III. As a result, we think that in lumbar discectomy cases preoperative administration of 1 gr paracetamol has no preemptive analgesic effect.
