Introduction
Acetaminophen is a safe drug in controlling and treatment of mild to moderate pain. Furthermore, Intra venous Acetaminophen (Apotel) has been used for acute and high accuracy pain reduction for years. However; regarding the importance of post operation pain reduction; opium is still a routine drug in surgery wards. As the prevalence of cesarean sections are in an increasing trend in the world ; we aimed to compare the efficacy of Apotel in cesarean sections post operative pain.
Objectives
In this study the analgesic efficacy of acetaminophen infusion was compared with placebo for postoperative pain in cesarean sections under spinal anesthesia in Yas Hospital in 2016.
Methods
In this interventional study that was performed as a double-blind randomized clinical trial, 49 women under cesarean section with spinal anesthesia in Yas Hospital in 2016 were enrolled and with block randomization were assigned to receive either intravenous acetaminophen (1 gram) or placebo in recovery ward. Then the pain severity (VAS), used meperidine dose and also the rate of vomiting them were determined and compared across the groups 0, 4, 8, 12,and 24 hours later.
Results
There were lower pain (VAS) in acetaminophen group all over the study but the difference was only significant at forth hour after surgery (P=0.0001). The rate ofvomiting was same across the groups (P > 0.05).
Conclusion
Totally, it may be concluded that acetaminophen infusion has a good efficacy for reduction of acute postoperative pain in cesarean sections under spinal anesthesia. |
