NCT01139671 · Status: COMPLETED · Phase: PHASE4 · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 18

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Wisdom teeth removal under general anaesthesia is usually suitable for ambulatory surgery.

The choice of opioid in dental day surgery is based on the need for a rapid and full recovery, as well as less morphine administration. Whether remifentanil can achieve these goals remains to be proved, especially regarding remifentanil-induced hyperalgesia, the potential prolonged Post Anesthesia Care Unit (PACU) stay, or remifentanil-induced workload for nurses.
