Study to Investigate TIVA With Propofol on Postoperative Pain and Side Effects

October 11, 2022 updated by: Wong Sau Ching Stanley, The University of Hong Kong

Retrospective Study to Investigate Total Intravenous Anaesthesia (TIVA) With Propofol on Postoperative Pain and Side Effects After Surgery

Propofol is a commonly used anaesthetic with rapid recovery and less side effects and total intravenous anaesthesia (TIVA) with propofol is a common technique now. The reduction on certain serum pro- inflammatory cytokines may lead to more smooth post- surgical recovery.

Recent case report proved the analgesic effect of propofol infusion. However other animal and clinical studies showed controversial result.

The aim of this retrospective study is to investigate the postoperative analgesic effects and side effects of intraoperative TIVA with propofol in patient undergoing surgery at Queen Mary Hospital, Hong Kong between 2014 to 2016.
