Descrição detalhada
The WHO analgesic ladder, even with its limitations, is widely used to guide the beginning of opioid therapy in chronic pain. According to this approach the choice of drug is based on the intensity of pain reported by the patient; belong to the first step acetaminophen and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), and if these drugs fail it is planned to introduce a weak opioid (tramadol, codeine) alone or in combination.
The association codeine-paracetamol, one of the most widely used drug combinations in the treatment of moderate pain from osteoarthritis, demonstrated analgesic efficacy superior only to paracetamol in the short term; however, its use was less effective in the long term and worsen by multiple side effects, especially gastrointestinal with results in poor adherence to the therapy.
Lately, the international guidelines on the treatment of chronic pain in cancer have suggested the possibility of moving, in case of inadequate efficacy of paracetamol and / or NSAIDs, directly to the third step, using a low dose of a strong opioid.
The side effects associated with the use of opioids in the treatment of chronic pain, such as itching, side effects of gastrointestinal and central nervous system effects (drowsiness, giddiness), often necessitate dose reduction (thus compromising the analgesic effect), with often resulting in discontinuation of treatment.
A recent strategy to face the underlying cause of opioid-induced constipation (OIC) is the oral administration of an antagonist of opioid receptor that acts specifically and locally at the level of the gastrointestinal tract. This prevents or minimizes gastrointestinal side effects but does not affect the central analgesic effect of the opioid thank to the low bioavailability of the antagonist.
A recent review on the effects of chronic pain on cognitive function of patients describes a series of clinical evidence suggestive of a intellectual impairment predominantly associated with a significant psychomotor slowing.
An interesting corollary of the problematic pain-cognition is represented by the possible neuropsychological side effect due to teh use of opioid drugs in the treatment of chronic pain.
The objective of the research becomes to determinate how much the analgesic relief, derived from the assumption of opioid drugs, can lead to an improvement in cognitive function without the possible side effects of the drugs themselves.

Armas e Intervenções
Grupo de Participantes / Braço |
Intervenção / Tratamento |
---|---|
Comparador Ativo: Codeine/paracetamol
The combination codeine/paracetamol,30 mg/500 mg,1 tablet every 8 hours, paracetamol 500 mg if NRS> 4, repeatable up to 3 times per day. At any stage of the study, patients treated with combination codeine/paracetamol in case of ineffectiveness (NRS> 4) despite maximal dosage (2 tablets every 8 hours) and/or side effect, will be subject to the opioid switch and will start equianalgesic therapy with oxycodone/naloxone combination. |
Randomization to one of the two treatments will be done through appropriate randomization list. During the first 15 days of treatment in the event of failure of efficacy, understood as the average pain intensity higher than 4 (monitored with NRS) with the need to take more than two rescue doses of paracetamol per day, and in the absence of side effects, the patients will be instructed on how to proceed with dosage adjustments according to specific guidelines. The patient will be evaluated at 15 days, 1 month, 2 months and three months. Your health care professional who administer the assessment scales (WOMAC, SF-12, BFI, TMT) will not know in any way which treatment the patient is taking. |
Comparador Ativo: Oxycodone/Naloxone
Combination oxycodone /naloxone, 5 mg/2.5 mg, 1 tablet/day, paracetamol 500 mg if NRS> 4, repeatable up to 3 times per day.

---|---|---|
Evaluate differences in terms of efficacy and tolerability between two pharmaceutical protocols in patients with chronic pain due to osteoarthritis.
Prazo: 15 days from the enrolment
|
The number of patients has been estimated considering that, at 15 days of enrollment, a reduction of 30% of the WOMAC pain subscale, with a score at BFI <50, the use of not more than one laxative drug or the absence of side effects such as to consider the need to discontinue therapy occurs in 80% of patients in Protocol B versus 50% of patients in Protocol A, with 73 patients per group will be able to highlight an odds ratio (OR) 2.65 with a power of 80% and an alpha error of 5% (2-tailed). The calculation was performed with nQuery 4 (Statistical Solutions, Cork, IRL). Considering a drop out rate of about 24% is numerosity you plan to enroll a total of 182 patients in order to obtain 146 patients valid. |
