A consecutive series of 200 men undergoing repair of a unilateral inguinal hernia underwent random allocation into one of the four groups to receive: bupivacaine and papaveretum-aspirin (group 1), bupivacaine and oral placebo (group 2), saline and papaveretum-aspirin (group 3), or saline and oral placebo (group 4). Patients were prescribed postoperative oplates to be given on demand. Pain levels and mobility were assessed at 6 and 24 h after operation. Patients in group 1 reported significantly less pain, required less additional opiates and had better mobility than those in group 4 (pain score P &amp;lt; 0.001 at 6 h and P = 0.002 at 24 h) and group 3 (P = 0.002 for pain and mobility scores at 6 h). Bupivacaine alone provided good immediate postoperative pain relief (P = 0.002 group 2 versus group 4 at 6 h). The combination of bupivacaine and papaveretum-aspirin provided the best results and is suitable for day-case postoperative analgesia.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1002\/bjs.1800820929","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2007,3,3]],"date-time":"2007-03-03T23:00:08Z","timestamp":1172962808000},"page":"1245-1247","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":35,"title":["Pain relief after inguinal hernia repair: A randomized double-blind study"],"prefix":"10.1093","volume":"82","author":[{"given":"D","family":"Nehra","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Surgery, Maelor General Hospital , Wrexham LL13 7TD,","place":["UK"]}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"L","family":"Gemmell","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Surgery, Maelor General Hospital , Wrexham LL13 7TD,","place":["UK"]}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"J K","family":"Pye","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Surgery, Maelor General Hospital , Wrexham LL13 7TD,","place":["UK"]}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"286","published-online":{"date-parts":[[1995,9,1]]},"reference":[{"key":"2024092815571715100_bib1","first-page":"133","article-title":"Short-stay surgery (Shouldice technique) for repair of inguinal hernia","volume":"58","author":"Glassow","year":"1976","journal-title":"Ann R Coll Surg Engl"},{"key":"2024092815571715100_bib2","first-page":"124","article-title":"Necessity into choice.
