Pain Relieving Potentials of Combination of Oral Duloxetine and Intravenous Magnesium Sulphate in Post Mastectomy Pain
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
This study aims to evaluate the effect of combined duloxetine and IV Magnesium sulphate to decrease acute and chronic post mastectomy pain.
The study will be conducted in National Cancer Institute and all the participants will be enrolled from female patients scheduled for modified radical mastectomy under general anesthesia in National Cancer Institute, Cairo University.

Phase 4 |
Detailed Description
It has been reported recently that Duloxetine improved the quality of recovery in patients subjected to hysterectomy. In this context, mastectomy has a negative consequence starting from cancer diagnosis to the squeal of cancer-related treatments and it has been estimated that 20%-30% of patients with breast cancer suffer from depression and anxiety. Magnesium also antagonizes the release of inflammatory mediators such as histamine, serotonin, and cytokines in peripheral tissues.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Time to first analgesic request [24 hours after surgery]
time to first dose of rescue analgesia
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Postoperative morphine consumption [24 hours after surgery]
amount of morphine consumed (mg)
- visual analogue scale score [at 2 hour,6 hour, 12 hour and 24 hour]
assessment of postoperative pain using the visual analogue scale score. the scale is a straight horizontal line (100 mm). The ends are defined as the extreme limits of pain orientated from the left (no pain) to the right (worst pain).The patient marks on the line the point that they feel represents their perception of their current state. The VAS score is determined by measuring in millimetres from the left hand end of the line to the point that the patient marks.higher VAS score means worse pain
- incidence of post mastectomy pain syndrome [at 8 weeks postoperative and 12 weeks postoperative]
incidence of post mastectomy pain syndrome
