Administration of Perfalgan (paracetamol) for postoperative analgesia in obstetrics and gynaecology
Abstract
The aim of our study is to determine the quality of postoperative analgesia by using of Perfalgan (injectable paracetamol)--alone or in combination with other analgesics for different operations in obstetric and gynecology. We have evaluated 60 women, divided into four groups each one of 15 according to the kind of surgical intervention: section cesarean, laparoscopy, laparohysterectomy or cystectomy. The effect of administered Perfalgan over postoperative pain was estimated by different objective and subjective parameters after standard general anesthesia. As a result of our study we consider that postoperative analgesia with Perfalgan is suitable enough after section cesarean and laparoscopy. As a component of multimodal analgesic combination it gives a good quality of postoperative pain relief in condition of laparohysterectomy or cystectomy. It is very important that this is without any adverse effects.
How strong is the evidence?
Evidence Hub reads this as a clinical trial, done in people. Its evidence level is 3 of 5 (Moderate · trial / cohort / secondary analysis). Trials without a large randomized design, cohorts and secondary analyses give moderate evidence. Reported size: 60 participants or records.
