Cheek Acupuncture

DRUG

sufentanil 2 µg/kg + ondansetron 0.2 mg/kg

The patient-controlled analgesia (PCA) pump held a solution of 2 µg/kg sufentanil and 0.2 mg/kg ondansetron in 100 ml. It infused 2 ml/hour continuously, allowing patients to self-administer an extra 2 ml bolus every 15 minutes if needed. For inadequate pain control, diclofenac sodium suppositories were used as rescue analgesia, depending on individual pain assessments and the requirement for extra relief.
