Randomized Controlled Trial Multicenter StudyThe adverse effects with ibuprofen after major orthopedic surgeries: A protocol for the PERISAFE randomized clinical trial.
Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are recommended for pain treatment after elective hip and knee arthroplasties. However, evidence regarding the incidence of adverse effects with short-term NSAID treatment following surgery is limited. We, therefore, aim to assess the adverse effects with an eight-day postoperative treatment with ibuprofen after elective hip and knee arthroplasties. ⋯ The trial is approved by the Danish Medicine Agency and the Research Ethics Committee (EU CT no. 2022-502, 502-32-00). We plan to submit for publication in a major international peer-reviewed journal and present results at scientific meetings.

Randomized Controlled Trial Comparative StudyComparison of analgesic efficacy of ibuprofen and dexketoprofen in pain management of long bone fractures: a prospective, randomized, double-blind study.
Long bone fractures (LBF) often cause severe pain, impacting patients' quality of life. This prospective, randomized, double-blind study aimed to compare the analgesic efficacy of dexketoprofen (Dex) and ibuprofen (Ibu) in LBF patients in the emergency department. ⋯ Ibuprofen 800 mg demonstrated superior analgesic efficacy at 60 and 120 min compared to Dex in long bone fractures. These findings suggest ibuprofen's potential as an effective pain management option in emergency departments.

Randomized Controlled Trial
A sequential, multiple-assignment, randomized trial of analgesic strategies for acute musculoskeletal Pain.
Most methodologically rigorous, ED-based, comparative effectiveness analgesic studies completed in the last two decades failed to find a clinically important difference between the comparators. We believe that many of these comparative effectiveness studies were biased towards the null hypothesis because some ED patients with intense pain will respond to relatively mild interventions. We hypothesized that including a run-in period would alter the results of an acute pain RCT. ⋯ Among patients with acute musculoskeletal pain, using an acetaminophen first strategy did not alter pain outcomes.

Randomized Controlled Trial Comparative Study
Intravenous ibuprofen versus ketorolac for perioperative pain control in open abdominal hysterectomy: a randomized controlled trial.
We aimed to compare the analgesic effects of intravenous ibuprofen to ketorolac after open abdominal hysterectomy. ⋯ The two drugs, intravenous ibuprofen and ketorolac produced similar analgesic profile in patients undergoing open abdominal hysterectomy receiving multimodal analgesic regimen.

Randomized Controlled Trial
Topical Diclofenac Versus Oral Ibuprofen Versus Diclofenac + Ibuprofen for Emergency Department Patients With Acute Low Back Pain: A Randomized Study.
Topical nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are useful for a variety of musculoskeletal injuries. It is not known whether topical NSAIDs should be used for patients presenting with acute nonradicular musculoskeletal low back pain. ⋯ Among patients with nontraumatic, nonradicular acute musculoskeletal low back pain discharged from an ED, topical diclofenac was probably less efficacious than oral ibuprofen. It demonstrated no additive benefit when coadministered with oral ibuprofen.
