CHU Tivoli0 sites68 target enrollmentApril 4, 2018

Overview

Phase
Phase 1
Intervention
Not specified
Conditions
Poor postoperative pain control leads to decreased satisfaction with care, prolonged recovery time and increased use of health care resources. Despite their efficacy, opioids are associated with nausea, vomiting, pruritus, drowsiness, and the risk for respiratory depression. As an alternatif, continuous wound infusion using a multi-orifice catheter with a local anesthetic has been suggested for pain therapy, however conflicting results are found in randomized controlled trials.
