Randomized Controlled TrialEffects of erector spinae plane block on opioid consumption in patients undergoing hand-assisted laparoscopic donor nephrectomy: a randomized controlled trial.
The erector spinae plane block is a relatively new regional anesthesia technique that is expected to provide some benefits for postoperative analgesia. This study investigated the effects of erector spinae plane block on postoperative opioid consumption in kidney donors undergoing hand-assisted laparoscopic donor nephrectomy for renal transplantation. ⋯ Preoperative erector spinae plane block is not an effective strategy for reducing postoperative pain or opioid consumption in patients undergoing hand-assisted laparoscopic donor nephrectomy. Different block combinations are needed for optimal pain management in hand-assisted laparoscopic donor nephrectomy.

Randomized Controlled TrialInfluence of Intravenous S-Ketamine on the Pharmacokinetics of Oral Morphine in Healthy Volunteers.
Subanesthetic ketamine may reduce perioperative consumption of opioids. We studied whether intravenous S-ketamine alters the pharmacokinetics of oral morphine in healthy volunteers. ⋯ Intravenous S-ketamine inhibited the metabolism of oral morphine and delayed its absorption, resulting in a net reduction in the exposure to morphine during the first 1.5 hours. Intravenous S-ketamine may delay the absorption and impair the efficacy of orally administered analgesics and other drugs.

Evaluation of basal rate infusion in intravenous patient-controlled analgesia for post-cesarean section pain management: A randomized pilot study.
Administering opioids via intravenous patient-controlled analgesia is a prevalent approach for managing postoperative pain. Nevertheless, due to concerns about opioid-related side effects and the potential for opioid tolerance, there is a growing emphasis on adopting opioid-sparing techniques for postoperative pain management. We aimed to investigate the effect of adding a basal rate infusion in fentanyl-based IVA following a cesarean section (CS). ⋯ The inclusion of a basal fentanyl infusion in the IVA protocol did not provide any advantages over an IVA devoid of a basal rate infusion in managing acute pain following CS.

Effect of early ultrasound-guided femoral nerve block on preoperative opioid consumption in emergency patients with hip fracture: a randomized trial.
Ultrasound-guided femoral nerve block (FNB) could be used as part of a multimodal preoperative pain management for patients with hip fracture. Evidence of the effects of its early implementation in the emergency room as an immediate alternative to intravenous morphine titration is sparse. ⋯ Early ultrasound-guided FNB resulted in reducing preoperative opioid consumption, without delaying time to pain relief.

Randomized Controlled TrialAnalgaesic Effect of Erector Spinae Plane Block in Coronary Surgery: A Randomised Controlled Trial.
To investigate the effect of preemptive erector spinae plane (ESP) block application on postoperative pain scores and opioid demand in off-pump coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery. ⋯ Coronary artery bypass surgery, Erector spinae plane block, Acute postoperative pain.
