Randomized Controlled Trial
[Efficacy of intravenous dexketoprofen trometamol compared to intravenous paracetamol for postoperative pain management after day-case operative hysteroscopy: randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study].
Adequate pain management following day-case surgery allows early ambulation of patients. In this study, we aimed to compare postoperative analgesic efficacy of intravenous (iv) dexketoprofen vs. iv paracetamol following day-case operative hysteroscopy. ⋯ Our study demonstrated that iv dexketoprofen has superior efficacy for postoperative pain management following day-case operative hysteroscopy when compared with paracetamol and placebo.

We evaluated post dural puncture headache (PDPH) cases and the contributing factors and monitored the treatment response with epidural blood patch (EBP), and other therapies. ⋯ In PDPH cases, EBP is an effective and relatively safe method, especially in obstetric patients. We reported that the PDPH symptoms presented earlier in female patients. A preference of a small diameter needle (less than 22 G) and avoidance of multiple attempts is important for spinal anesthesia.

Randomized Controlled Trial
[Comparison of hemodynamics, recovery profile and postoperative analgesia of unilateral spinal anaesthesia with combined sciatic-femoral nerve block in knee arthroscopy].
In this randomized, controlled, blind study, a combined sciatic-femoral nerve block with levobupivacaine was compared with a unilateral spinal anaesthesia with respect to effectiveness, patient and surgeon satisfaction, and the effect on postoperative pain in arthroscopic knee surgery. ⋯ Combined sciatic-femoral nerve block for outpatient arthroscopic knee surgery offers satisfactory anaesthesia, with a clinical profile similar to that of low-dose spinal anesthesia. Sciatic-femoral nerve blocks are associated with significantly lower pain scores during the first 6 postoperative hours.

Randomized Controlled Trial
[Comparison the effects of prilocaine and the addition of dexketoprofen and dexamethasone to prilocaine for intravenous regional anesthesia].
The aim of this study was to compare the anesthetic and analgesic effects of prilocaine alone, prilocaine added dexketoprofen and dexamethasone during intravenous regional anesthesia (IVRA). ⋯ The addition of dexketoprofen and dexamethasone to prilocaine during IVRA improves the quality of both anesthesia and analgesia moreover dexketoprofen provides beter postoperative analgesia during the first 24 hour after surgery.

Randomized Controlled Trial
[Effect of intravenous dexketoprofen use on postoperative analgesic consumption in patients with lumbar disc surgery].
The objective of this study was to evaluate the postoperative analgesic effect of a preemptive, single-dose intravenous dexketoprofen administration in patients undergoing lumbar microdiscectomy. ⋯ Single-dose preemptive intravenous dexketoprofen provides effective analgesia especially in the first 8 postoperative hours, reducing tramadol use.
