Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The treatment of perioperative pain in children has been a topic of great interest to pediatricians, pediatric surgeons, and anesthesiologists for many years. Opioids are the most common analgesics used to manage acute postoperative pain in children and adults

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Drug: standard dose morphine
  • Drug: low dose morphine plus dexmedetomidine
N/A

Detailed Description

Patient-controlled analgesia (PCA) permits patients to self-administer small doses of opioid analgesics intravenously or subcutaneously at frequent intervals. PCA is used in the management of moderate-to-severe pain. Patient-controlled analgesia (PCA) is now used in children as young as 5 yr for the treatment of postoperative pain.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Active Comparator: standard dose morphine

children will receive 0.05 mg morphine /kg.as a bolus dose followed by 0.05 mg/kg/hr morphine continous infusion dissolved in 100 ml normal saline with lockout interval of 15 min.PCA bolus dose 1 ml (0.5 mg morphine).

Drug: standard dose morphine
Receiving 0.05 mg morphine /kg as a bolus dose followed by 0.05 mg/kg/hr morphine continous infusion dissolved in 100 ml normal saline with lockout interval of 15 min.PCA bolus dose 0.5mg morphine.
Other Names:
  • morphine sulphate
  • Active Comparator: low dose morphine plus dexmedetomidine

    children will receive 0.05 mg morphine /kg bolus dose followed by 0.02mg/kg/hr plus 0.2 µg/kg dexmedetomidine in 100 ml normal saline with lockout interval of 15 min.PCA bolus dose 1 ml (0.2 mg + 2 mic dexmedetomidine)

    Drug: low dose morphine plus dexmedetomidine
    Receiving 0.05 mg morphine /kg bolus dose followed by 0.02mg/kg/hr plus 0.2 µg/kg dexmedetomidine continous infusion in 100 ml normal saline with lockout interval of 15 min.PCA bolus dose 0.2mg morphine + 2 microgram dexmedetomidine.

  • Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Post-operative pain intensity evaluation at (1, 2, 3, 4, 16, 24h). [24 hour]

      visual analogue score consists of a straight 10 cm line with the end points defining extreme limits between (0) no pain and (10) worst pain, the score is determined by measuring the distance between no pain and worst pain.

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. Total morphine consumption in 24h postoperative. [24 hour]

      total morphine dose in 24h

    2. sedation [24 hour]

      (0 = awake; 1 = drowsy; 2 = asleep but arousable; 3 = deeply asleep). Patients were considered sedated if they had a sedation score of more than 0.

    3. respiratory depression [24 hour]

      respiratory depression, if respiratory rate less than 10 breaths/minute

    4. nausea vomiting [24 hour]

      Nausea and vomiting was recorded using a categorical scoring system (0 = none, 1 = nausea, 2 = retching, 3 = vomiting).
