Esketamine Combined With Pregabalin on CPSP in Spinal Patients.

October 31, 2023 updated by: Ruquan Han, Beijing Tiantan Hospital

Esketamine Combined With Pregabalin on Chronic Postsurgical Pain in Patients Undergoing Primary Spinal Tumor Surgery.

Chronic postsurgical pain has become one of the most common complications of surgery. The quality of life will be impacted once the postsurgical patients are combined with persistent pain. What's more, the postsurgical pain may increase other adverse outcomes. It's important to find a better way to keep the postsurgical patients away from postoperative pain. Esketamine and pregabalin have become potentially effective drugs on CPSP.
