Abstract

Objective: Our study aims to compare the effectiveness of post-operative pain relief and the total amount of morphine needed between the method of using Gabapentin combined with Etoricoxib orally before surgery and the conventional method of pain relief with morphine. Method: cross-sectional description of 60 patients undergoing maxillofacial surgery from April to September 2024 at Viet Duc Friendship Hospital, including 2 groups: group I received Gabapentin and Etoricoxib combined with Morphine PCA. After surgery And group II only used Morphine PCA after surgery. Results: Postoperative VAS pain score of group I was lower than group II at the time H0 H1 H4 H8 (p<0.05). At the same time, the total amount of Morphine consumed in group I decreased much more than group II (p < 0.05), in the first 24 hours by 20%, in the next 24 hours by 21%, and the total in 48 hours is 21%. Conclusion: Using oral Gapapentin and Etoricoxib before surgery is an effective method of preventing post-operative pain and reducing Morphine consumption in maxillofacial surgery patients.
