Overview

Quasi-experimental trial finds that pre-operative tramadol provides superior postoperative pain control compared to bupivacaine and lignocaine.

Key Points

  • Tramadol shows significantly longer pain-free duration compared to bupivacaine and lignocaine after surgery.
  • Patients receiving tramadol had a VAS pain score of 2.09 after 2 hours, lower than bupivacaine's 3.68 and lignocaine's 3.99.
  • The study involved 90 patients aged 18-65 undergoing Lichtenstein mesh hernioplasty with randomized anesthetic groups.
  • No significant differences in adverse effects were recorded among the different anesthetic groups.
