Opioid Analgesic Adverse Reaction

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of neuraxial analgesia initiation on the incidence of pruritus in laboring women. Specifically, this study aim to compare intrathecal fentanyl with epidural fentanyl in order to determine whether the epidural route is associated with a lower occurrence and severity of pruritus. By clarifying these differences, the research seek to optimize analgesic strategies during labor while minimizing opioid-related side effects

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if Oliceridine fumarate injection works to treat acute pain after abdominal surgery. It will also learn about the safety of Oliceridine fumarate injection. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Does Oliceridine fumarate injection works to treat acute pain after abdominal surgery? 2. Does Oliceridine fumarate injection lead to less adverse effect? Researchers will compare Oliceridine fumarate injection to a positive-drug (Sufentanil Citrate) to see if Oliceridine fumarate injection not inferior to sufentanil in the efficacy and safety for acute pain after abdominal surgery. Participants will: 1. Receive patient controlled analgesia treat using Oliceridine or sufentanil after surgery 2. Be followed up every 6 hours until 48 hours after surgery or before discharge

North America is experiencing a crisis of opioid use and abuse, partially caused by excessive prescribing by doctors. People often receive their first opioid prescription for pain treatment after outpatient breast surgery (i.e., surgery to remove all or parts of the breast(s), where patients leave the hospital the same day). Many patients misuse these drugs and become addicted. Additionally, many of the opioid pills prescribed to patients are left unused and may be misused by family members, friends, or other community members. To prevent this problem, surgeons can avoid prescribing opioids by prioritizing opioid-free analgesia (i.e., pain treatment using only non-opioid interventions). Prescribing only non-opioid pain medications after surgery is very common in many countries outside of North America; however, few studies have assessed whether opioid-free analgesia is as effective as opioid analgesia after breast surgery. Therefore, the main question driving this study is: For patients who undergo outpatient breast surgery, is pain treatment without opioids as good as pain treatment with opioids? The proposed trial will compare two groups of patients: one group will receive opioids to treat pain after surgery, while the other group will receive only non-opioid medications. The impact of these different medication strategies will be measured on pain intensity, pain interference with daily activities, medication side effects, and other outcomes. An expert team of scientists, surgeons, pain specialists, nurses, and patients has been assembled to maximize the success of this study. The results will provide important information to guide surgeons' decisions to prescribe (or not to prescribe) opioids. If opioid-free analgesia is found to be effective, doctors may be able to substantially reduce opioid prescribing after breast surgery and prevent more people from misusing opioids.
