Summary

Pain is one of the most common and fear symptoms for cancer patients, which seriously affects the quality of life in cancer patients. At present, oral opioid is the most common route to administrate cancer pain. However, the patients do not satisfy the pain administration with oral opioid after successful titration in many cases, especially the cases with severe cancer pain. Patient controlled analgesia (PCA) with hydromorphone can take analgesic effect rapidly. The aim of this trial is to compare the maintenance with hydromorphone PCA intravenously or switch to Sustained-Release Morphine orally after successful titraton with hydromorphone PCA intravenously in severe cancer pain.

Conditions

  • Cancer Pain

Interventions

DRUG

PCA IV Hydromorphone (continuous dose = 0)

Intravenous PCA with hydromorphone after successful titration of 24 hours. the PCA setting: 1) continuous dose = 0; 2) bolus dose = 10-20% of the total dosage of hydromorphone in the previous 24 hours: 3) lockout time = 10 minutes; 4) evaluate once every 24 hours

DRUG

PCA IV Hydromorphone (continuous dose ≠ 0)

Intravenous PCA with hydromorphone after successful titration of 24 hours. the PCA setting: 1) continuous dose (dose/hours) = the total dosage of hydromorphone in the previous 24 hours/24; 2) bolus dose = 10-20% of the total dosage of hydromorphone in the previous 24 hours; 3) lockout time = 10 minutes; 4) evaluate once every 24 hours

DRUG

Oral morphine

Swift to sustained-release morphine orally as background dose with immediate release morphine orally for breakthrough pain after successful titration of 24 hours. Administration of morphine orally 1) Sustained-release morphine orally (dose/12 hours) = the total equianalgesic of the previous 24 hours/2×75% for d1; the total equianalgesic of the previous 24 hours/2 for day 2 and day 3; 2) Immediate release morphine orally = 10-20% of the total equianalgesic of the previous 24 hours; 3) Evaluate once every 24 hours
