Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Expected outcome 1: To evaluate postoperative pain in children undergoing adenotonsillectomies, according to the pharmacological intervention group (dipyrone or placebo), using validated scales: "Children's and Infants'Postoperative Pain Scale" and "Visual Analog Scale", in the recovery room post anesthetic, at H0 (patient arrival); at H1 (in 1 hour); in H3 (in 3 hours) and in H6 (in 6 hours).;Outcome found 1: Postoperative pain remained controlled in at least 77.6% of children in relation to all moments verified (H0, H1, H2, H3 and H6), in the intervention group. Analyzing the intervention and placebo groups, it was evident that the proportion in pain control was 54.2% versus 45.8%, respectively, showing the greatest difference in the H3 moment between the stages evaluated. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Expected outcome 2: Compare the need to use rescue opioids in the postoperative period between the intervention and placebo groups, according to doses administered during the stay in the recovery room. ;Outcome found 2: A reduction in the need for the use of rescue opioids in the postoperative period was observed in the intervention group, ranging from 6 to 9% fewer doses administered during the stay in the recovery room. | — |
