ALVAREZ-HURTADO, Lester M et al. Morphine/ketamine versus morphine in postoperative pain control for elective renal surgery. Rev. mex. anestesiol. [online]. 2023, vol.46, n.4, pp.237-241. Epub 26-Feb-2024. ISSN 0484-7903. https://doi.org/10.35366/112292.
Introduction:
acute postoperative pain delays the patient’s functional recovery.
Objective:
to evaluate the utility of ketamine associated with morphine administered in intravenous boluses in the control of acute postoperative pain in patients undergoing elective renal surgery.
Material and methods:
we conducted a double-blind study in patients with moderate-severe postoperative pain undergoing elective renal surgery. Two groups were formed: group MK administered 0.05 mg/kg morphine plus 0.2 mg/kg ketamine and group M 0.05 mg/kg morphine plus 0.9% saline solution. Patients with pain of moderate-severe intensity according to the visual analogue scale received doses of morphine every 20 minutes until achieving light pain, recording the total consumption of morphine per patient. Blood pressure, heart and respiratory rates, oxygen saturation, and adverse effects were evaluated with the same periodicity.
Results:
MK group showed lower pain intensity with a significant decrease in morphine consumption. Both groups turned out to be similar in terms of blood pressure, heart rate, respiratory rate and oxygen saturation Figures. Nausea and vomiting were the most prevalent adverse effects, being higher in the morphine group.
Conclusions:
the morphine-ketamine association was useful in the control of moderate-severe pain in patients undergoing elective renal surgery.
