Comparison Between Adjunctive Sublingual Misoprostol Versus Adjunctive Placebo in the Reduction of Intraoperative Blood Loss During Caesarean Section
Caesarean delivery is inevitably associated with a higher amount of blood loss vis-à-vis primary postpartum haemorrhage, when compared to vaginal delivery. Oxytocin use in tropical developing countries for the reduction blood loss at caesarean section have been met with challenges of ineffectiveness due to poor transportation, inadequate storage and drug adulteration. Therefore, there is a need for an effective, temperature stable uterotonic with a lesser risk of adulteration. The study is aimed at evaluating the effectiveness and safety of adjunctive sublingual misoprostol in reducing intraoperative blood loss at caesarean section.
Outcome of Combined Tramadol and Paracetamol Versus Pentazocine as Labour Analgesia Among Parturients in the Federal Medical Center, Yenagoa, Bayelsa State, Southern Nigeria: A Randomized Controlled Trial
Labour is a very painful experience and epidural analgesia is considered the gold standard for pain relief in labour. Epidural scarcity, cost and shortage of skilled personnel to administer it is a limitation to it's usage in developing countries. Parenteral opioid analgesics such as pethidine and pentazocine are effective labour analgesia commonly used in developing countries but are limited by their side effects. This limitation in their use call for the need for alternative analgesic with similar or superior analgesic effect but with minimal side effects.The study is aimed at evaluating the efficacy and safety of combined tramadol and paracetamol in reducing labour pain among parturients.
Single-centre, Randomized, Clinical Trial of Opioid-free Analgesia Versus Routine Opioid-based Analgesia Regimen for the Management of Acute Post-operative Pain Following Caesarean Section
Background: Multimodal analgesia; a combination of opioid and non-opioid analgesics, for management of acute post-operative pain significantly reduces the incidence of adverse effects associated with liberal post-operative opioid use including sedation, respiratory depression, constipation, ileus, urinary retention, delayed recovery, addiction etc. However, opioid addiction remains a worsening public health problem and have followed administration of opioid analgesics for post-operative pain and subsequent chronic use in many addicts; especially the opioid naive. Caesarean section is a commonly performed surgery and is a common source of first exposure to opioids in women. Trend in post-operative analgesia is moving towards opioid-free (multimodal) analgesia; a combination of non-opioid and adjuvant analgesics. Magnesium sulphate is an adjuvant analgesic. When administered peri-operatively, it has been reported to prolong the duration of spinal anaesthesia, decrease post-operative pain and opioid use without adverse effect.
Aim: To determine the effectiveness and safety of a combination of peri-operative intravenous magnesium sulphate, intravenous paracetamol, and post-operative rectal diclofenac as opioid-free, multimodal analgesia for management of acute post-operative pain after a caesarean section.
Null Hypothesis: Combination of intravenous magnesium sulphate, intravenous paracetamol, and rectal diclofenac as analgesia regimen for acute post-operative pain after a caesarean section is not as effective and safe as a routine opioid-based multimodal analgesia regimen used in the study setting.
Alternate Hypothesis: Combination of intravenous magnesium sulphate, intravenous paracetamol, and rectal diclofenac as analgesia regimen for acute post-operative pain after a caesarean section is as effective and safe as a routine opioid-based multimodal analgesia regimen used in the study setting.
Materials and Methods: A randomized clinical trial, comparing a combination of peri-operative intravenous magnesium sulphate, intravenous paracetamol, and post-operative rectal diclofenac with an opioid-based multimodal regimen as control. Eligible patients will be consecutively selected from among women booked for caesarean section at the Federal Medical Centre, Yenagoa. Control group will receive a combination of post-operative intramuscular pentazocine, intravenous paracetamol and rectal diclofenac. Pain intensity will be determined in both groups and compared. Need for rescue opioid analgesic will be determined in both groups and compared. Incidence of any adverse event in both groups will be determined.
