ABSTRACT
Introduction: Postoperative pain is the main cause of acute pain worldwide.
Providing adequate analgesia postoperatively guarantees hospital stay reduction and
positively affects patient outcome.
Objective: To evaluate the quality of postoperative analgesia with bupivacaine plus
intrathecal morphine in elective prostate surgery, as well as the incidence of adverse
effects.
Methods: A quasiexperimental research was carried out between January 2014 and
July 2017. The sample was chosen in a non-probabilistic way and made up by the
patients who gave their informed consent and met the inclusion criteria to enter the
study. They were randomly distributed into two groups identified as bupivacaine (B)
and morphine-bupivacaine (MB). To collect the information, the anesthetic medical
records were used, together with a form prepared for such purpose. The data were
shown in charts and graphs, the results were expressed numerically and in
percentages, some descriptive measures of interest were determined that showed the
behavior of the variables that required it.
Results: The most relevant outcome was the very significant analgesic effect in the
MB group in the first 24 hours after surgery. The most common adverse reaction was
pruritus and only occurred in the group that received morphine.
Conclusions: Spinal anesthesia with morphine and bupivacaine is effective and safe
because it provides better analgesia in the immediate postoperative period in
comparison to bupivacaine alone.
