Does multimodal analgesia with nonopioid analgesics reduce opioid consumption in postoperative patients?
Postoperative patients (both using and not using the ERAS pathway)
Multimodal analgesia with nonopioid analgesics and techniques
Reduced opioid consumption
Multimodal analgesia with nonopioid techniques is recommended to reduce postoperative opioid consumption.
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.
