July 5, 2012 updated by: Katja venborg Pedersen

Visceral Pain Originating From the Upper Urinary Tract - a Randomized Controlled Trial on the Effect of Morphine and Oxycodone in Patients Undergoing Percutaneous Nephrolithotomy (PCNL)

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of oxynorm versus morphine after operation for kidney stone (PCNL). In addition the relationship between pain symptoms and referred sensory and trophic changes will be examined in the patients before and after the operation.Finally a blood sample is analysed to investigate pharmaca-genetics.
