Pain, Postoperative

Brief summary

In the case of the newlys developed PCA, the infusion rate is increased according to the patient's need for bolus button, so that the pain can be controlled more efficiently.

Detailed description

In the case of the existing iv-pca, the analgesic drug was injected into the patient at a constant rate (ex. 1 ml / hr) and additional pain was controlled through the bolus dose (1 ml). As a result, the analgesic effect was insufficient, or the effect was excessive, causing side effects (nausea, vomiting, sedation, dizziness). Especially In spinal surgery, the degree of pain sharply decreases from day 1 to day 2. Classic iv-pca with constant infusion rate can not reflect this result. But in the case of the newlys developed PCA, the infusion rate is increased according to the patient's need for bolus button, so that the pain can be controlled more efficiently. If the bolus button is not pressed for a certain period of time, it is expected that the injection rate will be reduced and the side effect caused by the analgesic agent will be decreased.

Interventions

The PCA regimen consisted of fentanyl 20 μg/kg and Ramosetron Hcl 0.3 mg (total volume including saline: 100 ml) and was programmed to deliver 1 ml /h as a background infusion and a bolus of 1.5 ml on-demand, with a 15 min lockout time. It can increment or decrement rate(0.2ml/hr) by press bolus button during a 48 h period

DEVICEConstant-rate Infusion mode

The PCA regimen consisted of fentanyl 20 μg/kg and Ramosetron Hcl 0.3 mg (total volume including saline: 100 ml) and was programmed to deliver 1 ml /h as a background infusion and a bolus of 1.5 ml on-demand, with a 15 min lockout time during a 48 h period
