Why the study?
Does multimodal analgesia with nonopioid analgesics reduce opioid consumption in postoperative patients?
Does multimodal analgesia with nonopioid analgesics reduce opioid consumption in postoperative patients?
Multimodal analgesia with nonopioid techniques is recommended to reduce postoperative opioid consumption.
Supports multimodal analgesia to curb postoperative opioid use; leaves open optimal regimens and long-term outcomes for prospective trials.
Multimodal analgesia is readily available and the evidence is strong to support its efficacy. Surgeons should use this effective approach for patients both using and not using the ERAS pathway to reduce opioid consumption.
