Low-dose Spinal Morphine for Post-Thoracotomy Pain After Video-Assisted Thoracoscopic Surgery

April 6, 2016 updated by: Sirilak Suksompong, Mahidol University

Low-dose Spinal Morphine for Post-Thoracotomy Pain After Video-Assisted Thoracoscopic Surgery: A Prospective Randomized Double-Blind Controlled Trial

One-thirds of patients underwent video-assisted thorascopic surgery still have severe pain. Therefore we want to demonstrate weather 0.15 mg spinal morphine would reduce 24 hour postoperative requirement comparing to control group.
