ABSTRACT
Background: One of the techniques of preventive analgesia to treat postoperative pain includes the use of non-opioid analgesics.
Objective: To compare the postoperative analgesic efficacy of diclofenac
versus metamizol in gynecological surgery.
Material and methods: A prospective comparative study was performed in the Hospital «Guillermo Luis Fernández Hernández-Baquero,» Holguin, Cuba, during a period of ten months. In total, 108 patients were selected, which were divided randomly into two groups of 54 patients each. Group I: 75 mg diclofenac; and Group II: 2 g metamizol. Both drugs were administered intravenously after induction of anesthesia. The patients were premedicated with 0.02 mg/kg IV midazolam. We administrated general orotracheal anesthesia and recorded mean arterial pressure and heart rate in various stages of the perioperative period, as well as the most common side effects. The intensity of postoperative pain was measured by visual analogue scale.
Results: A decrease in postoperative pain was observed in both groups, it was most marked in Group I patients, not being significant at 6 hours (p = 0.13). No side effects associated with both drugs were observed.
Conclusions: The administration of diclofenac and metamizol was effective when used as preventive analgesia in gynecological surgery.
