Postoperative pain management after upper limb surgery is important for preventing adverse events that can prolong hospital stay and cause readmission. This study aimed to identify the risk factors associated with rescue analgesic use on the first postoperative day after upper limb surgery performed under single-injection brachial plexus block (BPB).
We retrospectively analyzed records from 930 patients who underwent upper limb surgery under a single-injection BPB. Postoperatively, patients were administered oral loxoprofen regularly and rescue analgesics when analgesia was insufficient. We assessed the association between patient, surgical information, and rescue analgesic use on the first day after surgery (from 7:00 PM on the day of surgery to 7:00 AM on the first postoperative day), using a logistic regression model. Multivariate analysis revealed a significant association between rescue analgesic use and bone surgery, in particular, osteotomy, ligament repair and reconstruction, osteosynthesis, treatment for an amputated digit, and surgical duration.
Bone surgery (osteotomy, ligament repair and reconstruction, osteosynthesis, treatment for an amputated digit) and a longer operative time were risk factors for rescue analgesic use for treating postoperative pain after upper limb surgery performed under single-injection BPB.
上肢手术后的疼痛管理对于预防可能延长住院时间并导致再次入院的不良事件很重要。本研究旨在确定在单次注射臂丛神经阻滞(BPB)下进行上肢手术后第一天使用补救镇痛药相关的风险因素。
我们回顾性分析了930例在单次注射BPB下接受上肢手术患者的记录。术后,患者定期口服洛索洛芬,镇痛效果不足时给予补救镇痛药。我们使用逻辑回归模型评估了患者、手术信息与术后第一天(从手术当天晚上7:00至术后第一天早上7:00)补救镇痛药使用之间的关联。多变量分析显示,补救镇痛药使用与骨手术,特别是截骨术、韧带修复与重建、骨固定术、断指治疗以及手术持续时间之间存在显著关联。
骨手术(截骨术、韧带修复与重建、骨固定术、断指治疗)和较长的手术时间是在单次注射BPB下进行上肢手术后使用补救镇痛药治疗术后疼痛的风险因素。
