Brief Summary: Posterior Spinal fusion PSF is one of the most invasive orthopedic surgical procedures in children and adolescents often characterized by extensive tissue trauma and severe postoperative pain In addition to pain the postoperative period is complicated by the side effects of opioids such as nausea and vomiting itching and sedation Various studies have shown that pain in the direct postoperative phase is an important determinant for development of chronic post-surgical pain

The consequences of untreated acute pain are known and can also contribute to chronification in pain
Detailed Description: Surgical correction of adolescent idiopathic scoliosis AIS is indicated for severe deformity Posterior Spinal fusion PSF for AIS is one of the most invasive orthopedic surgical procedures in children and adolescents often characterized by a large surgical incision extensive tissue trauma risk of blood loss longer operating times and severe postoperative pain In addition to pain the postoperative period is complicated by the side effects of opioids such as nausea and vomiting itching and sedation All of this can along with under-treatment of postoperative pain be an important delaying factor in postoperative recovery and rehabilitation with a late hospital discharge and increased patient dissatisfaction Various studies have shown that pain in the direct postoperative phase is an important determinant for development of chronic post-surgical pain

The consequences of untreated pain are known and can also contribute to chronification in pain

The incidence of chronic post-surgical pain after scoliosis fusion is 22 at 6 months and 11-15 at 1 to 5 years postoperatively It is therefore important to minimize the pain during the first postoperative days Untreated pain in patients is far from benign with significant negative short and long term consequences with accompanying reduction in rehabilitation duration sleep quality of life To date there is no scientific evidence that some analgesic policy is superior making adequate and safe pain relief and associated anti-emetic therapy after PSF a challenge makes for all healthcare providers involved
