1Nandakumar Elangovan, Dhanalakshmi, Nabeel Nazar, Dhanraj Ganapathy
The concept of the analgesia is to reduce the magnitude and duration of the post-operative pain. post-operative pain is one of the most frequently reported symptoms. Identification of the predictive factors is to facilitate the early intervention, and better pain management. Analgesic treatment is important to obtain efficient reduction of post injury pain hypersensitivity. Development of safe and short-acting anaesthetics, improved pain relief by early intervention with multimodal analgesia, and stress reduction by regional anaesthetic techniques, β-blockers, or glucocorticoids have provided important possibilities for enhanced recovery. When these techniques are combined with a change in preoperative care enhancement of recovery and decrease in hospital stay can be achieved, even in major operations.
