Background: Pain from rib fractures often requires inpatient management with opioid medication. The need for ongoing opioid prescriptions following hospital discharge is poorly understood. Harms associated with long-term opioid use are generally accepted. However, a deeper understanding of current prescribing patterns in this population at-risk is required.

Methods: A retrospective cohort of adult patients hospitalised in Queensland, Australia between 2014 and 2015 with rib fractures (ICD-10-AM: S22.3, S22.4, S22.5), was obtained from the Community Opioid Dispensing after Injury (CODI) study, which includes person-linked hospitalisation, mortality and community opioid dispensing data. Data were extracted 90-days prior to the index-hospitalisation and 720-days after discharge. Factors associated with long-duration (>90 days cumulatively) and increased end-dose were examined using multivariable logistic regressions, odds ratios (OR), and 95% confidence intervals (95% CI).

Results: In total, 4306 patients met the inclusion criteria, and 58.8% had opioids dispensed in the community within 30 days of hospital discharge. 23.6% had long-duration dispensing and 13.7% increased opioid end-doses. Pre-injury opioid use was most associated with long-duration (OR = 12.00, 95% CI 8.99-16.01) and increased end-dose (OR = 9.00, 95% CI 6.75-12.00). Females and older persons had higher odds of long-duration dispensing (Females OR = 1.75, 95% CI 1.38-2.22; Age 65+ OR = 1.86, 95% CI 1.32-2.61). Injury severity and presence of concurrent injuries were not statistically significantly associated with duration or dose (p > .05). Subsequent hospitalisations and death during the follow-up period had statistically significant associations with long-duration and increased end-dose (p < .001).

Conclusion: Opiate prescribing following rib fractures is prolonged in older, and female patients, beyond the traditionally reported recovery time frames requiring analgesia. Previous opioid use (without dependence) is associated with long-duration opioid use and increased end-dose in rib fracture patients. These results support the need for a collaborative health system approach and individualised strategies for high-risk patients with rib fractures to reduce long-term opiate use.

Level of evidence: Level III, Prognostic/Epidemiological.

背景:肋骨骨折引起的疼痛通常需要住院患者使用阿片类药物进行治疗。人们对出院后是否需要继续处方阿片类药物知之甚少。长期使用阿片类药物的危害已被普遍接受。然而,我们需要更深入地了解这一高危人群目前的处方模式:从 "受伤后社区阿片类药物配药"(CODI)研究中获得了 2014 年至 2015 年期间在澳大利亚昆士兰州因肋骨骨折(ICD-10-AM:S22.3、S22.4、S22.5)住院的成年患者的回顾性队列,其中包括与个人相关的住院、死亡和社区阿片类药物配药数据。数据提取时间为指数住院前 90 天和出院后 720 天。使用多变量逻辑回归、几率比(OR)和 95% 置信区间(95% CI)研究了与长期用药(累计超过 90 天)和最终用药量增加相关的因素:共有 4306 名患者符合纳入标准,58.8% 的患者在出院后 30 天内在社区配发了阿片类药物。23.6%的患者长期使用阿片类药物,13.7%的患者增加了阿片类药物的最终用量。受伤前使用阿片类药物与长期使用(OR = 12.00,95% CI 8.99-16.01)和最终剂量增加(OR = 9.00,95% CI 6.75-12.00)关系最大。女性和老年人长期配药的几率更高(女性 OR = 1.75,95% CI 1.38-2.22;65 岁以上 OR = 1.86,95% CI 1.32-2.61)。受伤严重程度和是否同时受伤与持续时间或剂量无明显统计学关联(P > .05)。随访期间的后续住院和死亡与持续时间长和最终剂量增加有统计学意义(p < .001):结论:年龄较大的女性患者在肋骨骨折后使用阿片类药物的时间较长,超过了传统报告的需要镇痛的恢复时间。曾使用阿片类药物(无依赖性)与肋骨骨折患者长期使用阿片类药物和最终用量增加有关。这些结果支持了对肋骨骨折高危患者采取医疗系统协作方法和个性化策略的必要性,以减少阿片类药物的长期使用:III级,预后/流行病学。

Background: Some patients with postoperative hip fractures (HF) experience persistent severe pain. In this longitudinal study, we examined the characteristics of patients with persistent pain after HF surgery, and the factors influencing pain intensity.

Methods: We conducted an 8-week prospective study in patients with postsurgical HF. Verbal rating scale (VRS), and multifaceted outcomes, including pressure pain threshold (PPT) (affected site and biceps), were evaluated at 2, 4, and 8 weeks postoperatively. Patients were divided into mild (VRS ≤1) and severe (VRS ≥2) groups according to pain intensity at 8 weeks postoperatively. Statistical analyses were performed using two-way ANOVA and decision-tree analysis.

Results: VRS, PPT at the affected site and biceps, and physical activity (PA) time were significantly lower in the severe group than in the mild group 2 weeks postoperatively. VRS, PPT at the affected site, pain catastrophizing (PCS)-13, and the Tampa Scale for Kineshiophobia (TSK)-11 did not show significant improvements in the severe group. Decision tree analysis revealed that the VRS and PCS-13 at 4 weeks, PA time at 2 weeks, and TSK-11 change between 4 weeks and 2 weeks were factors influencing severe pain intensity at 8 weeks after HF surgery.

Conclusion: Persistent severe pain after HF surgery was characterised by high peripheral and central sensitisation, pain catastrophizing, and reduced PA at 2 weeks after HF surgery. In addition, early pain intensity, pain catastrophizing, and PA may be hierarchically influential factors for persistent pain 8 weeks after HF surgery.

背景:一些髋部骨折(HF)术后患者会出现持续性剧烈疼痛。在这项纵向研究中,我们考察了髋部骨折术后持续疼痛患者的特征以及影响疼痛强度的因素:我们对高频手术后患者进行了为期 8 周的前瞻性研究。我们在术后 2、4 和 8 周对口头评分量表(VRS)和多方面结果(包括压痛阈值(PPT)(受累部位和二头肌))进行了评估。根据术后 8 周的疼痛强度,将患者分为轻度组(VRS ≤1)和重度组(VRS ≥2)。统计分析采用双因素方差分析和决策树分析法:结果:术后2周,重度组的VRS、患处和肱二头肌的PPT以及体力活动(PA)时间明显低于轻度组。重度组的 VRS、患处 PPT、疼痛灾难化(PCS)-13 和运动恐惧坦帕量表(TSK)-11 均无明显改善。决策树分析显示,4周时的VRS和PCS-13、2周时的PA时间以及4周和2周之间的TSK-11变化是影响高频手术后8周剧烈疼痛强度的因素:结论:高频手术后持续性剧烈疼痛的特点是外周和中枢高度敏感化、疼痛灾难化以及高频手术后 2 周的 PA 减少。此外,早期疼痛强度、疼痛灾难化和PA可能是影响心房颤动手术后8周持续疼痛的层次性因素。

Objectives: To 1) estimate the utilization and costs of physician and diagnostic imaging (DI) services for shoulder, knee, and low-back pain (LBP) conditions; and 2) examine determinants of the utilization and costs of these services.

Methods: All patients visiting a physician for shoulder, knee, or LBP conditions (identified by the ICD-9 codes) in Alberta, Canada, in fiscal year (FY) 2022/2023 were included. Interested outcomes included numbers and costs of physician visits and DI exams stratified by condition, physician specialty, DI modality, and patients' sex and age. Multivariate regressions were used to examine determinants of the outcomes.

Results: In FY 2022/2023, 10.4%, 7.0%, and 6.7% of the population saw physicians for shoulder, knee, and LBP conditions, respectively. This costs Alberta $307.04 million ($67.93 per capita), of which shoulder accounted for 41%, knee 28%, and LBP 31%. In the same FY, 17,734 computed tomography (CT), 43,939 magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), 686 ultrasound (US), and 170,936 X-ray exams related to shoulder/knee/LBP conditions were ordered for these patients, costing another $29.07 million, of which CT accounted for 14%, MRI 48%, US 0%, and X-ray 37%. Female, older age, comorbidity scores, and capital zone used physician services more frequently. Patients with a higher comorbidity index scores or more physician visits were more likely being referred for CT or MRI.

Conclusion: Musculoskeletal conditions are common and result in patients seeking healthcare services. Visits to family physicians, specialists, and the ordering of DI contribute to extensive utilization of health services, contributing to considerable health system costs.

目标:1)估算肩关节、膝关节和腰背痛(LBP)疾病的医生和诊断成像(DI)服务的使用率和成本;以及 2)研究这些服务的使用率和成本的决定因素:方法:纳入 2022/2023 财政年度(FY)加拿大艾伯塔省所有因肩、膝或腰背痛(通过 ICD-9 编码识别)就诊的患者。所关注的结果包括按病情、医生专业、DI 方式以及患者性别和年龄分层的医生就诊和 DI 检查的人数和费用。采用多元回归法研究结果的决定因素:在 2022/2023 财政年度,分别有 10.4%、7.0% 和 6.7% 的人口因肩部、膝部和腰椎间盘突出症就诊。这导致艾伯塔省花费 3.0704 亿美元(人均 67.93 美元),其中肩关节占 41%,膝关节占 28%,腰椎间盘突出症占 31%。在同一财政年度,还为这些患者开具了17734份计算机断层扫描(CT)、43939份磁共振成像(MRI)、686份超声波(US)和170936份与肩部/膝部/腰椎间盘突出症相关的X光检查单,又花费了2907万美元,其中CT占14%,MRI占48%,US占0%,X光占37%。女性、高龄、合并症评分和首都地区的患者使用医生服务的频率更高。合并症指数得分较高或就诊次数较多的患者更有可能被转诊接受 CT 或 MRI 检查:结论:肌肉骨骼疾病很常见,患者因此寻求医疗服务。家庭医生、专科医生的就诊以及 DI 的订购导致了医疗服务的广泛使用,并造成了可观的医疗系统成本。

Objective: To assess the feasibility and possible impacts of implementation of systematic non-pharmacological interventions to reduce the level of prescribing of opioid and gabapentinoid analgesics for chronic non-cancer pain (CNCP), particularly high-dose prescriptions, through a proof-of-concept study in a deprived area (second lowest decile) primary care practice in North-East England.

Participant: Twenty-five primary care staff (clinical and non-clinical) of which 18 clinicians received the intervention.

Intervention used in this study practice known as gott gabapentinoid and opioid toolkit: All clinicians received an educational skills programme to support patient pain self-management, tailored on the clinicians' self-assessment of their learning needs, embedding both clinician skill learning and patient self-care resources for rapid access within consultations into a GP clinical management computer system.

Outcome measures: Clinical staff completed questionnaires before and after the GOTT intervention to assess levels of knowledge and confidence in their own skills to support chronic pain self-management across several domains. Prescription data were used to measure changes in opioid and gabapentinoid prescribing at the practice across the 12-month intervention and 30-month follow-up period.

Results: Prescribing of opioid and gabapentinoid/pregabalin decreased substantially in the practice across the intervention period (c. 90% in high-dose opioid [p = .0118], and 15% gabapentin/pregabalin prescriptions, respectively), over a one-year period during the COVID-19 pandemic. Follow-up analysis showed 100% and c.50% reductions, respectively, in December 2022. The questionnaire data showed an increase in clinician confidence in skills to enable self-management over the intervention period, overall (p = .044) and, specifically across three of the five domains measured: supporting behavioural change (p = .028), supporting self-care (p = .008), and managing difficult consultations (p = .011).

Conclusion: The GOTT intervention program provided some initial evidence of a proof-of-concept for the implementation of a systematic non-pharmacological pain management skills and resources programme addressing lack of confidence in skills to introduce and support self-management and reduce use of strong opioids and gabapentinoids.

目的通过在英格兰东北部一个贫困地区(第二低十分位数)的初级医疗实践中开展概念验证研究,评估实施系统性非药物干预措施的可行性和可能产生的影响,以减少慢性非癌性疼痛(CNCP)阿片类和加巴喷丁类镇痛药的处方量,尤其是大剂量处方:25 名初级保健人员(临床和非临床),其中 18 名临床医生接受了干预措施:所有临床医生都接受了一项支持患者疼痛自我管理的教育技能计划,该计划是根据临床医生对其学习需求的自我评估而量身定制的,将临床医生技能学习和患者自我护理资源嵌入到全科医生临床管理计算机系统中,以便在会诊期间快速获取:临床人员在 GOTT 干预前后填写了调查问卷,以评估他们对自己在多个领域支持慢性疼痛自我管理技能的知识水平和信心。处方数据用于衡量该诊所在 12 个月干预期和 30 个月随访期阿片类药物和加巴喷丁类药物处方的变化情况:结果:在 COVID-19 大流行期间的一年时间里,干预期间的阿片类药物和加巴喷丁/普瑞巴林处方量大幅减少(大剂量阿片类药物处方量减少约 90% [p = 0.0118],加巴喷丁/普瑞巴林处方量减少约 15%)。后续分析显示,到 2022 年 12 月,处方量分别减少了 100%和 c.50%。问卷调查数据显示,在干预期间,临床医生对自我管理技能的信心总体上有所提高(p = .044),特别是在五个测量领域中的三个领域:支持行为改变(p = .028)、支持自我护理(p = .008)和处理疑难会诊(p = .011):GOTT 干预计划为实施系统的非药物疼痛管理技能和资源计划提供了一些初步的概念验证证据,以解决对引入和支持自我管理技能缺乏信心的问题,并减少强阿片类药物和加巴喷丁类药物的使用。

Background: Multicomponent treatment is commonly used. However, there are no studies that included graded motor imagery and therapeutic neuroscience education to multicomponent treatment for patients with fibromyalgia This study aims to compare the short-term effects (at 12 weeks) of a multicomponent treatment combined with graded motor imagery and therapeutic neuroscience education versus standard treatment in patients with FM.

Methods: The study was a single-blinded randomized controlled trial. Sixty-five women with a clinical diagnosis of FM were randomly allocated (1:1) into two groups. The experimental group (n = 33) received a novel multicomponent treatment combined with graded motor imagery and neuroscience education. The control group (n = 32) received a standard treatment including pharmacotherapy and standard physician education. The primary outcome was pain intensity assessed with the Numeric Pain Rating Scale (NPRS). The secondary outcomes were changes in the Fibromyalgia Impact Questionnaire (FIQ), the Pain Catastrophizing Scale (PCS), the Tampa Scale of Kinesiophobia (TSK-17), and the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) scores. All outcomes were assessed at baseline and 12 weeks.

Results: All of the participants completed the trial. The between-group mean differences at 12 weeks were: NPRS-1.18 points (95% confidence interval [CI] -0.4 to -1.8; η2 = 0.47; p < .001); FIQ-16.21 points (95% CI -10.9 to -22.1; η2 = 0.58; p < .001); PCS total domain -12.5 points (95% CI -7.2 to -17.8; η2 = 0.61; p < .001); TSK-17-6.15 points (95% CI -3.5 to -8.7; η2 = 0.52; p < .001); and PSQI-2.74 points (95% CI -1.4 to 4.0; η2 = 0.54; p < .001). All differences were statistically significant in favor of the novel multicomponent treatment group and had a large effect size.

Conclusions: In the short term, a novel multicomponent treatment, including graded motor imagery and neuroscience education, was an effective therapeutic intervention for improving clinical outcomes compared with standard treatment in women with FM. Additional studies are needed to support long-term clinical effectiveness in these patients.

背景:多成分治疗是常用的治疗方法。本研究旨在比较结合分级运动想象和治疗性神经科学教育的多组分疗法与标准疗法对纤维肌痛患者的短期疗效(12 周):该研究是一项单盲随机对照试验。65名临床诊断为FM的妇女被随机分配(1:1)到两组。实验组(n = 33)接受新颖的多成分治疗,并结合分级运动想象和神经科学教育。对照组(n = 32)接受标准治疗,包括药物治疗和标准医生教育。主要研究结果是用数字疼痛评分量表(NPRS)评估疼痛强度。次要结果是纤维肌痛影响问卷 (FIQ)、疼痛灾难化量表 (PCS)、坦帕运动恐惧量表 (TSK-17) 和匹兹堡睡眠质量指数 (PSQI) 评分的变化。所有结果均在基线和 12 周时进行评估:所有参与者都完成了试验。12 周时的组间平均差异为NPRS-1.18分(95% 置信区间 [CI] -0.4至-1.8;η2 = 0.47;p < .001);FIQ-16.21分(95% CI -10.9至-22.1;η2 = 0.58;p < .001);PCS总域-12.5分 (95% CI -7.2 to -17.8; η2 = 0.61; p < .001);TSK-17-6.15分 (95% CI -3.5 to -8.7; η2 = 0.52; p < .001);PSQI-2.74分 (95% CI -1.4 to 4.0; η2 = 0.54; p < .001)。所有差异在统计学上都对新型多组分治疗组有显著影响,且影响程度大:结论:在短期内,与标准治疗相比,包括分级运动想象和神经科学教育在内的新型多成分治疗是一种有效的治疗干预措施,可改善女性 FM 患者的临床疗效。还需要更多的研究来支持这些患者的长期临床疗效。

Background: Chronic pain is common and associated with disruptions in quality of life (QoL) and psychosocial functioning. These issues are particularly pronounced in veterans, although data in this regard primarily come from the United States Veterans Affairs System, meaning less is known regarding veterans of other countries and regions. The present study evaluated veterans living in Northern Ireland (NI), a region with historic high rates of both chronic pain and psychosocial difficulties associated with the decades-long period of civil and military conflict preceding the 1999 armistice (the Good Friday Agreement). Unique to the Northern Ireland military operation was the initiation of Home Service battalions comprised of local recruits, a role with increased risk due to the conflict's nature and the fact that they were serving as a military and security presence in their home region.

Methods: A cross-sectional assessment of veterans living in Northern Ireland (N = 722) provided details of service type (Home Service vs other service), current health conditions (including chronic pain), and current psychosocial functioning (including physical and mental health QoL, anxiety, depression, and post-traumatic stress disorder [PTSD] symptoms).

Results: Findings indicated that those with chronic pain had worse QoL, anxiety, depression, and PTSD. Those with chronic pain were also more likely to have served in the Home Services, be unemployed, and be receiving disability payment. Contrary to hypotheses, there was no interaction between chronic pain and service type.

Conclusions: These results extend previous work with veterans to the unique circumstances of a post-conflict military that engaged in operations within its own country and underscore the need for coordinated, efficacious interventions for co-morbid chronic pain and anxiety, depression, and PTSD.

背景:慢性疼痛是一种常见病,与生活质量(QoL)和社会心理功能紊乱有关。这些问题在退伍军人中尤为突出,尽管这方面的数据主要来自美国退伍军人事务系统,这意味着对其他国家和地区退伍军人的了解较少。本研究对生活在北爱尔兰(NI)的退伍军人进行了评估,该地区在 1999 年停战(《耶稣受难日协议》)之前长达数十年的内战和军事冲突期间,慢性疼痛和社会心理障碍的发病率一直居高不下。北爱尔兰军事行动的独特之处在于启动了由当地新兵组成的家庭服务营,由于冲突的性质以及他们在家乡地区充当军事和安全存在的事实,这种角色的风险增加了:对居住在北爱尔兰的退伍军人(N = 722)进行了横断面评估,详细了解了他们的服役类型(本土服役与其他服役)、当前健康状况(包括慢性疼痛)和当前社会心理功能(包括身体和心理健康的 QoL、焦虑、抑郁和创伤后应激障碍 [PTSD] 症状):结果:研究结果表明,慢性疼痛患者的 QoL、焦虑、抑郁和创伤后应激障碍症状较差。慢性疼痛患者也更有可能曾在家庭服务机构服役、失业和领取残疾津贴。与假设相反,慢性疼痛与服役类型之间没有交互作用:这些结果将以前针对退伍军人的研究扩展到了冲突后军队在本国境内参与行动的独特环境中,并强调了对同时患有慢性疼痛和焦虑、抑郁及创伤后应激障碍的人进行协调、有效干预的必要性。

Background: More sex-specific pain sensitivity normative values from population-based cohorts in pain-free older adults are required. The aims of this study were (1) to provide sex- and age-specific normative values of pressure and cold pain thresholds in older pain-free adults and (2) to examine the association of potential correlates of pain sensitivity with pain threshold values.

Methods: This study investigated sex-specific pressure (lumbar spine, tibialis anterior, neck and dorsal wrist) and cold (dorsal wrist) pain threshold estimates for older pain-free adults aged 41-70 years. This cross-sectional study used participants (n = 212) from the Raine Study Gen1-26 year follow-up. The association of pain thresholds, with correlates including sex, test site, ethnicity, waist-hip ratio, smoking status, health-related quality of life, depression, anxiety and stress symptoms, sleep quality, socioeconomic status and physical activity levels, was examined.

Results: Values for pressure and cold pain thresholds for older pain-free adults are provided, grouped by vicennium, sex and test site (pressure). Statistically significant independent correlates of increased pressure pain sensitivity were test site, ethnicity and sex. Only lower waist/hip ratio was a statistically significant, independent correlate of increased cold pain sensitivity.

Conclusions: This study provides robust sex- and age-specific normative values for pressure pain threshold and cold pain threshold for an older adult pain-free population. Combined with existing values, these data provide an important resource in assisting interpretation of pain sensitivity in clinical pain disorders and provide insights into the complex association of pain sensitivity with correlates that can be used in research.

背景:需要更多来自无痛老年人群体的性别特异性疼痛敏感度标准值。本研究的目的是:(1)提供无痛老年人压力和冷痛阈值的性别和年龄特异性标准值;(2)研究疼痛敏感性的潜在相关因素与痛阈值之间的联系:本研究调查了 41-70 岁无痛老年人的压力(腰椎、胫骨前肌、颈部和腕背)和冷痛(腕背)阈值的性别特异性估计值。这项横断面研究使用了雷恩研究 Gen1-26 年随访的参与者(n = 212)。研究考察了疼痛阈值与性别、测试部位、种族、腰臀比、吸烟状况、健康相关生活质量、抑郁、焦虑和压力症状、睡眠质量、社会经济状况和体力活动水平等相关因素的联系:结果:提供了无痛老年人的压力和冷痛阈值,并按沧桑、性别和测试部位(压力)进行了分组。在统计学上,测试部位、种族和性别与压力痛敏感度的增加有明显的独立相关性。只有较低的腰围/臀围比与冷痛敏感性增加有统计学意义:这项研究为老年人无痛人群提供了可靠的、按性别和年龄划分的压力痛阈值和冷痛阈值标准值。结合现有数值,这些数据为临床疼痛疾病中疼痛敏感性的解释提供了重要的帮助,并为疼痛敏感性与相关因素的复杂关联提供了可用于研究的见解。

What influences post-operative opioid requirements for tibial fractures? 是什么影响了胫骨骨折术后对阿片类药物的需求?
IF 1.3 Q4 CLINICAL NEUROLOGY Pub Date : 2024-10-01 Epub Date: 2024-06-18 DOI: 10.1177/20494637241261013

Introduction: Currently there are few opioid prescribing guidelines for orthopaedic fractures. Long-term post-surgical analgesia requirements, understandably, vary between orthopaedic cases. Our study aims to provide detailed information to clinicians and policy makers, on the opioid requirement associations for patients sustaining tibial fractures.

Methods: This study reviewed all patients sustaining an isolated tibial fracture at a major trauma centre that were operated on within 1 month of injury, from 2015 to 2022. The total opioid dosage used each month in morphine milligrams equivalents (MME) and the number of days opioids were used each month, within the first-year post-surgery were collected, representing the strength and coverage of opioid analgesia in the post-operative stage, respectively. We compared opioid strength and coverage requirements with types of definitive fracture fixations, location, fracture type and concurrent patient medical comorbidities to assess for any trends.

Results: A total of 1814 patients sustaining a combined of 1970 fractures were included in the study. Tibial plateau fractures had the highest opioid strength and coverage requirements in each month and the entire year (p < .05). Across all fracture locations, Ex Fix frame showed higher opioid strength and coverage requirements compared to both IM nailing and plate ORIF. With regard to opioid coverage in the presence of specific comorbidities, only chronic kidney disease (quotient: 1.37, 95% Confidence interval [95%CI] = 1.19-1.55, p = .002) and hypertension (quotient: 1.34, 95%CI = 1.14-1.53, p = .009) showed significance at the 1-year overall level. For opioid strength, Chronic Kidney Disease (quotient: 1.72, 95%CI = 1.41-2.03 p = .005) and COPD (quotient: 1.90, 95%CI = 1.44-2.36, p = .014), show significance at the 1-year overall level.

Conclusion: Our study details opioid requirements post-surgery amongst tibial fractures with subgroup analysis assessing opioid needs amongst specific fracture locations, types, surgical techniques and medical comorbidities. This framework aids clinicians in anticipating rehabilitation and assists in risk stratifying patients at injury onset.

导言:目前,几乎没有针对骨科骨折的阿片类药物处方指南。可以理解的是,不同骨科病例的术后长期镇痛需求各不相同。我们的研究旨在为临床医生和政策制定者提供有关胫骨骨折患者阿片类药物需求关联的详细信息:本研究回顾了 2015 年至 2022 年期间在一家大型创伤中心接受手术的所有在受伤后 1 个月内发生孤立性胫骨骨折的患者。收集了术后第一年内每月阿片类药物的总用量(吗啡毫克当量)和每月使用阿片类药物的天数,分别代表术后阶段阿片类药物镇痛的强度和覆盖范围。我们将阿片类药物的使用强度和覆盖范围要求与最终骨折固定的类型、位置、骨折类型和患者的并发症进行了比较,以评估任何趋势:研究共纳入了1814名骨折患者,总计1970例。胫骨平台骨折患者每月和全年的阿片类药物剂量和覆盖范围需求最高(p < .05)。在所有骨折部位,Ex Fix固定架与IM钉和钢板ORIF相比,都显示出更高的阿片类药物强度和覆盖需求。关于存在特定合并症时的阿片类药物覆盖率,只有慢性肾病(商数:1.37,95% 置信区间 [95%CI] = 1.19-1.55,p = .002)和高血压(商数:1.34,95%CI = 1.14-1.53,p = .009)在 1 年总体水平上显示出显著性。慢性肾脏病(商数:1.72,95%CI = 1.41-2.03,p = .005)和慢性阻塞性肺病(商数:1.90,95%CI = 1.44-2.36,p = .014)的阿片类药物强度在 1 年总体水平上显示出显著性:我们的研究详细介绍了胫骨骨折患者手术后对阿片类药物的需求,并通过亚组分析评估了特定骨折部位、类型、手术技术和合并症对阿片类药物的需求。这一框架有助于临床医生预测康复情况,并在患者受伤初期对其进行风险分层。
