Brief Summary: To control post-operative pain multiple drugs are available and in the western countries opioids are preferred However they have their own side effects and so to reduce their dependence multiple adjuncts are used We compared the use of opioids vs just non steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs on post-operative pain control following inguinal hernia surgery
Detailed Description: Inguinal hernia repair is one of the most common surgeries performed by general surgeons worldwide The preferred procedure for primary open inguinal hernias is open mesh repair tension-free-also called Lichtenstein repair Opioids remain the mainstay for post-operative analgesia however they have a tendency for dependence along with other side effects Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs NSIADs have been used as adjuncts to decrease the use of opioids however usually NSAIDs are not used in isolation following surgery We compared post-operative analgesia following primary open inguinal hernia repair with patients receiving only opioids vs patients only receiving NSAIDs 60 patients were randomized in to 2 groups Group A patients received tramadol injection opioid every 8 hours while patients in Group B received injection ketorolac NSAID every 8 hourly Pain was measured using visual analogue score at 2- 6- 12- and 24-hours following surgery
