No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The efficacy of three postoperative pain management regimens will be compared in patients undergoing Lefort I osteotomy or alveolar cleft repair with Iliac crest bone grafts (ICBG) to determine the best way of managing postoperative pain.

Conditions

  • Postoperative Pain

Interventions

DRUG

Ketorolac

0.5 mg•kg-1 IV at the end of surgery before extubation and then 3 additional doses every 8 hours thereafter

DRUG

Bupivacaine

0.2 mL•kg-1 (lean body mass) bolus of bupivacaine 0.25% with epinephrine 1:200 000 will be injected through the IC catheter at the end surgery before the patient's trachea is extubated to detect intravascular injection. An infusion of the same solution will be started at 0.1 mL•kg-1•hour-1 (lean body mass) for 24 hours.

DRUG

ketorolac + bupivacaine

0.2 mL•kg-1 (lean body mass) bolus of bupivacaine 0.25% with epinephrine 1:200 000 will be injected through the IC catheter at the end surgery before the patient's trachea is extubated to detect intravascular injection. An infusion of the same solution will be started at 0.1 mL•kg-1•hour-1 (lean body mass) for 24 hours. For ketorolac, patients will receive 0.5 mg•kg-1 IV at the end of surgery before extubation and then 3 additional doses every 8 hours thereafter
