Innovative Techniques and Nursing Practices in Pain Management in Surgical Patients
Abstract
In recent years, the development of new techniques to improve postoperative outcomes, minimize complications, and increase patient satisfaction has led to valuable advances in postoperative pain management in surgical patients. Multimodal analgesia aims to reduce opioid consumption using a pharmacological and non-pharmacological method targeting different pain pathways. In addition to patient-controlled analgesia and epidural/spinal analgesia techniques, individualized pain management can be achieved with the use of new-generation local anesthetics and nerve blocks that provide long-term analgesia. However, due to their side effects, non-pharmacological methods are recommended as they offer a more holistic approach by reducing dependence on drugs. Digital health solutions have the potential to inform personalized treatment plans using real-time data for pain management. It is the responsibility of nursing to implement these methods and educate patients about them, and therefore ‘interprofessional pain management' remains an important theme.
