Effects of Multimodal Analgesia on Monocyte Chemoattractant Protein-1, Brain-derived Neurotrophic Factor, and RNA-124 Micro to Acute Pain in Patients Who Underwent Hysterectomy

The inflammatory process is the main mechanism in the occurrence of acute postoperative pain. It is also the main risk for the development of acute pain into persistent pain. Inflammation occurs in the process of peripheral sensitization and central sensitization with various inflammatory mediators. Postoperatively, there will be proliferation and activation of microglia and astrocytes which will then activate inflammatory receptors and signaling cascades of neurotransmitters, cytokines, and chemokines. There has been a lot of clinical research evidence that multimodal analgesia can adequately treat acute pain and can prevent the development of acute postoperative pain into persistent pain and chronic postoperative pain, but the molecular mechanisms are not fully understood.
