Neadekvatus skausmo gydymas po širdies operacijų lemia sumažėjusį ligonių aktyvumą, sukelia emocinį diskomfortą, nerimą, sutrikdo miegą, neigiamai veikia kvėpavimo funkciją, padidina miokardo infarkto, širdies nepakankamumo, tromboembolinių komplikacijų riziką. Tinkamas pooperacinio skausmo malšinimas ne tik gerina ligonio gyvenimo kokybę, pagreitina sveikimą ir visišką funkcijų atsitaisymą, bet ir glaudžiai susijęs su ligonio gydymo stacionare trukme, sumažina gydymo išlaidas. Pooperacinio skausmo gydymo svarba jau seniai neabejojama. Nors informacijos apie ūminio skausmo patogenezę ir jo gydymo patirties sukaupta nemažai, deja, nėra priimto skausmo malšinimo po širdies operacijų „aukso standarto“, o taikomų metodų efektyvumas nėra pakankamai aiškus. Pagrindinis straipsnio tikslas – padėti suprasti gydytojui praktikui, kodėl kyla skausmo problema pooperaciniu laikotarpiu ir ką gali medicinos personalas padaryti, kad šis laikotarpis pacientui būtų kuo sklandesnis. Straipsnyje aptariami ir nauji po širdies operacijų taikomi veiksmingi skausmo malšinimo metodai. Reikšminiai žodžiai: skausmas, širdies operacija, ūminio pooperacinio skausmo malšinimas New trends in the treatment of postoperative pain in cardiac surgery Judita AndrejaitienėInstitute for Biomedical Research, Kaunas University of Medicine, Laboratory of Intensive Care and Blood Circulation Research,Eivenių Str. 4, LT-50009 Kaunas, LithuaniaE-mail: [email protected] Effective post-operative pain management is a constituent of contemporary surgical treatment. Inadequate acute pain treatment after cardiac surgery can keep patients from the activities that prevent postoperative complications, especially respiratory complications, determine reduced patients’ emotional discomfort, anxiety, sleep disorders. The appropriate postoperative analgesia prevents patients’ discomfort, may decrease morbidity, postoperative ICU and in-hospital stay, and thus may decrease cost. The importance of post-operative pain management has been known for a long time. However, regardless of scientific progress in the studies of acute pain pathogenesis and the accumulated treatment experience, there is no acknowledged “golden standard” for the periods following cardiac surgery, while the effectiveness of the applied methods has not yet been fully explained. In the current era of early tracheal extubation, achieving optimal pain relief after cardiac surgery can be challenging. Adequate postoperative analgesia after cardiac surgery may be attained via a wide variety of techniques. The main purpose of this article is to help a practicing doctor understand the reasons related to the problem of pain during the postoperative period and also what the medical personnel can do in order to make this period as smooth as possible for the patient. The article also covers the most recently adapted effective methods of post-operative analgesia. Key words: pain, cardiac surgery, acute postoperative pain management

A B S T R A C TPain is an unpleasant sensory and emotional experience associated with actual orpotential tissue damage, or described in terms of such damage. APS-POQ-R (RevisedAmerican Pain Society Patient Outcome Questionnaire) is a measuring tool for assessingthe quality of postoperative pain management by exploring patient experiences andoutcomes. This research aims to assess the quality of postoperative pain managementat Mohammad Hoesin Hospital Palembang and to determine the factors that influenceit. The Cross-sectional observational analytic study was conducted toward 51respondents. Data was collected primarily by using questionnares and interview. Datawas analyzed by using chi-square. The study showed that the quality of postoperativepain management at RSUP Mohammad Hoesin General Hospital Palembang has goodquality with a total of 27 patients (52.9%). From statistical analysis there wassignificant relationship between the quality of post-operative pain management withage (p=0,037), gender (p=0,027), ethnicity (p=0,039), education level (p=0,039), andeconomic level (p=0,005). So it can be concluded that was a significant relationshipbetween the quality of post-operative pain management with age, gender, ethnicity,education level, and economic level.

Postoperative pain management is an important aspect of caring for a surgical patient as inadequate pain control can be associated with increased morbidity and mortality. Failure to effectively control postoperative pain is often due to poor communication and poorly coordinated care between the care teams, poor communication with the patient, insufficient education, unrealistic expectations, fear of complications from the pain regimen, inaccurate pain assessment, and limited effective pain treatment modalities. An effective pain management can therefore lead to improved patient comfort, satisfaction, earlier ambulation, faster recovery time, decreased hospital stay and cost of care, and reduced postoperative complications.

Paediatric pain management has made great strides in the past few decades in the understanding of developmental neurobiology, developmental pharmacology, the use of analgesics in children, the use of regional techniques in children, and of the psychological needs of children in pain. The consequences of a painful experience on the young nervous system are so significant that long-term effects can occur, resulting in behavioural changes and a lowered pain threshold for months after a painful event. Accurate assessment of pain in different age groups and the effective treatment of postoperative pain are constantly being refined, with newer drugs being used alone and in combination with other drugs, and continue to be explored. Systemic opioids, paracetamol, non-steroidal anti-inflammatories, and regional anaesthesia alone or combined with additives are currently used to provide effective postoperative analgesia. These modalities are often best utilized when combined as a multimodal approach to treat acute pain in the perioperative setting. The safe and effective management of pain in children includes the prevention, recognition, and assessment of pain; early and individualized treatment; and evaluation of the efficacy of treatment. This chapter discusses selected topics in paediatric acute pain management, with more specific emphasis placed on pharmacology and regional anaesthesia in the treatment of acute postoperative pain management.

OBJECTIVES Use of lidocaine as part of a multimodal approach to postoperative pain management has increased in adults; however, limited information is available regarding safety and tolerability in pediatrics. This study's primary objective was to evaluate the incidence of adverse effects related to lidocaine infusions in a sample of pediatric patients. METHODS A retrospective analysis was conducted in pediatric patients receiving lidocaine infusion for the management of postoperative analgesia at the University of Virginia Health System. RESULTS A total of 50 patients with 51 infusions were included in the final analysis. The median patient age was 14 years (range, 2–17 years). The most frequent surgeries were spinal fusion (30%), Nuss procedure for pectus excavatum (16%), and nephrectomy (6%). The mean ± SD starting rate was 13.6 ± 6.5 mcg/kg/min. The mean infusion rate during administration was 15.2 ± 6.3 mcg/kg/min, with 14.4 ± 6.2 mcg/kg/min at discontinuation. The mean length of therapy was 30.6 ± 22 hours. A total of 12 infusions (24%) were associated with adverse effects, primarily neurologic ones, including paresthesias in the upper extremities (10%) and visual disturbances (4%). The average time to onset was 16.2 ± 15.2 hours. Seven infusions were discontinued, whereas the remaining infusions resulted in either dose reduction or continuation without further incident. No patients experienced toxicity requiring treatment with lipid emulsion. CONCLUSIONS In this sample, lidocaine was a well-tolerated addition to multimodal postoperative pain management in the pediatric population. Although adverse effects were common, they were mild and resolved with either dose reduction or discontinuation.
