RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Ibuprofen (Motrin; Johnson & Johnson) and acetaminophen (APAP, paracetamol) are the most commonly used analgesics in the pediatric emergency department (ED) for managing a variety of acute traumatic and nontraumatic painful conditions. The multimodal pain management of using a combination of ibuprofen plus acetaminophen has the potential to result in greater analgesia. OBJECTIVE: We compared the analgesic efficacy of a combination of oral ibuprofen plus acetaminophen with either analgesic alone for pediatric ED patients with acute pain. METHODS: We performed a randomized, double-blind superiority trial assessing and comparing the analgesic efficacy of a combination of oral ibuprofen (10 mg/kg dose) plus acetaminophen (15 mg/kg per dose) to either analgesic alone for the treatment of acute traumatic and nontraumatic pain in the pediatric ED. Primary outcomes included a difference in pain scores among the three groups at 60 min. RESULTS: We enrolled 90 patients (30 per group). The difference in mean pain scores at 60 min between acetaminophen and combination groups was 0.30 (95% confidence interval [CI] -0.84 to 1.83); between ibuprofen and combination groups was -0.33 (95% CI -1.47 to 0.80); and between acetaminophen and ibuprofen groups was 0.63 (95% CI -0.54 to 1.81). Reductions in pain scores from baseline to 60 min were similar for all patients in each of the three groups. No adverse events occurred in any group. CONCLUSIONS: We found similar analgesic efficacy of oral ibuprofen and acetaminophen in comparison with each analgesic alone for short-term treatment of acute pain in the pediatric ED, but the trial was underpowered to demonstrate the analgesic superiority of the combination of oral ibuprofen plus acetaminophen in comparison with each analgesic alone.

RESUMO

STUDY OBJECTIVE: To compare analgesic efficacy and safety of intravenous lidocaine and ketorolac combination to each analgesic alone for ED patients with suspected renal colic. METHODS: We conducted a randomized, double-blind trial comparing analgesic efficacy of a combination of intravenous lidocaine (1.5 mg/kg) and ketorolac (30 mg), to ketorolac (30 mg), and to lidocaine (1.5 mg/kg) in patients aged 18-64 presenting to the ED with suspected renal colic. Primary outcome included difference in pain scores between the groups at 30 min. Secondary outcomes included a comparative reduction in pain scores in each group from baseline to 30 and 60 min as well as rates of adverse events and need for rescue analgesia at 30 and 60 min. RESULTS: We enrolled 150 subjects (50 per group). The difference in mean pain scores at 30 min between Lidocaine and Lidocaine/Ketorolac groups was -2.89 (95% CI: -4.39 to -1.39); between Ketorolac and Lidocaine/Ketorolac group was -0.92 (95% CI: -2.44 to 0.61); and between Ketorolac and Lidocaine was -1.98 (95% CI: -3.69 to -0.27). A comparative percentage of subjects in each group required rescue analgesia at 30 and 60 min. No clinically concerning changes in vital signs were observed. No serious adverse events occurred in either group. Commonly reported adverse effects were dizziness, nausea, and headache. CONCLUSION: The administration of intravenous lidocaine/ketorolac combination to ED patients with suspected renal colic results in better analgesia in comparison to lidocaine alone but provides no analgesic advantages over ketorolac alone.

RESUMO

STUDY OBJECTIVE: Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are used extensively for the management of acute pain, with ibuprofen being one of the most frequently used oral analgesics in the emergency department (ED). We compare the analgesic efficacy of oral ibuprofen at 3 different doses for adult ED patients with acute pain. METHODS: This was a randomized, double-blind trial comparing analgesic efficacy of 3 doses of oral ibuprofen (400, 600, and 800 mg) in adult ED patients with acute painful conditions. Primary outcome included difference in pain scores between the 3 groups at 60 minutes. RESULTS: We enrolled 225 subjects (75 per group). The difference in mean pain scores at 60 minutes between the 400- and 600-mg groups was -0.14 (95% confidence interval [CI] -0.67 to 0.39); between the 400- and 800-mg groups, 0.14 (95% CI -0.65 to 0.37); and between the 600- and 800-mg groups, 0.00 (95% CI -0.47 to 0.47). Reductions in pain scores from baseline to 60 minutes were similar for all subjects in each of the 3 groups. No adverse events occurred in any group. CONCLUSION: Oral ibuprofen administered at doses of 400, 600, and 800 mg has similar analgesic efficacy for short-term pain relief in adult patients presenting to the ED with acute pain.

RESUMO

STUDY OBJECTIVE: We compare the analgesic efficacy and safety of subdissociative intravenous-dose ketamine (SDK) versus morphine in geriatric Emergency Department (ED) patients. METHODS: This was a prospective, randomized, double-blind trial evaluating ED patients aged 65 and older experiencing moderate to severe acute abdominal, flank, musculoskeletal, or malignant pain. Patients were randomized to receive SDK at 0.3 mg/kg or morphine at 0.1 mg/kg by short intravenous infusion over 15 min. Evaluations occurred at 15, 30, 60, 90, and 120 min. Primary outcome was reduction in pain at 30 min. Secondary outcomes included overall rates of adverse effects and incidence of rescue analgesia. RESULTS: Thirty patients per group were enrolled in the study. The primary change in mean pain scores was not significantly different in the ketamine and morphine groups: 9.0 versus 8.4 at baseline (mean difference 0.6; 95% CI -0.30 to 1.43) and 4.2 versus 4.4 at 30 min (mean difference -0.2; 95% CI -1.93 to1.46). Patients in the SDK group reported higher rates of psychoperceptual adverse effects at 15, 30, and 60 min post drug administration. Two patients in the ketamine group and one in the morphine group experienced brief desaturation episodes. There were no statistically significant differences with respect to changes in vital signs and need for rescue medication. CONCLUSION: SDK administered at 0.3 mg/kg over 15 min provides analgesic efficacy comparable to morphine for short-term treatment of acute pain in the geriatric ED patients but results in higher rates of psychoperceptual adverse effects.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVES: The association of tenofovir (TDF) with nephrotoxicity has been a controversial issue. Few studies are published regarding the reversibility of renal dysfunction once TDF is discontinued. Studies have yet to be conducted in an urban, non-white patient population, making this one of the largest studies observing a non-white cohort. The objective of this study was to determine whether the decline in creatinine clearance (CrCL) associated with TDF use is reversible once TDF is discontinued in a non-white patient population. METHODS: This single-center, retrospective, chart review was performed at an urban outpatient HIV clinic. Patients who had been switched from tenofovir to zidovudine or abacavir because of a decline in renal function were included. The primary endpoint was the percentage of patients who regained full, moderate, mild, or no recovery of CrCl. RESULTS: Sixty-two patients were included. The mean age was 50 years old, 82% were black, and 66% were males with a mean baseline CrCL of 76 ml/min. Mean difference in CrCL from baseline to 12 months post-TDF was shown to be -11.34 ml/min. After a 1-year follow up period, 37.5% of patients had a full recovery of their baseline CrCL. An additional 41% of patients achieved a moderate recovery (80%-99% of baseline CrCL) and 17.9% patients had a mild recovery (50%-79% of baseline CrCL). Two patients required dialysis. The percent of patients with an undetectable HIV RNA while on a TDF-containing regimen was 67.1% compared with 74.6% on alternative ART. CONCLUSION: Renal dysfunction caused by TDF was fully reversible in 37.5% of patients. Improvement to at least 50% of baseline was seen in 96.4% of patients. Viral suppression was not compromised when patient was switched from TDF to an alternative nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor.
