RCT | Intermittent IV ibuprofen reduces morphine consumption and provides pain relief after surgery
20 Mar, 2023 | 13:39h | UTCSummary: The article describes a randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind clinical trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of different doses of intravenous ibuprofen (IVIB) in treating acute postoperative pain. The trial involved patients who underwent abdominal or orthopedic surgery and were randomized to placebo, IVIB 400 mg, or IVIB 800 mg. The first dose was given intravenously 30 minutes before surgery ended, followed by IV administration every 6 hours for a total of 8 doses.
The study found that IV administration of ibuprofen 400 mg or 800 mg significantly reduced morphine consumption and relieved pain without increasing the incidence of adverse events.
The study’s strengths were its multicenter, randomized, controlled, and prospective design. However, the extensive list of exclusion criteria suggests that the study was made in a relatively healthy population, making it difficult to extrapolate the safety results for more fragile patients.

M-A | Drugs to reduce bleeding in major open vascular or endovascular surgery – not enough evidence to guide treatment
21 Feb, 2023 | 11:44h | UTCSummary: The article is a systematic review and network meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) on the effectiveness and safety of anti-fibrinolytic and hemostatic drugs and agents to reduce bleeding and the need for blood transfusion in people undergoing major vascular surgery or endovascular procedures. The authors searched multiple databases and trial registries and included 22 RCTs with 3,393 participants analyzed. Due to a lack of data, the authors are uncertain whether any systemic or topical treatments may improve outcomes, emphasizing that larger trials with clinically relevant outcomes are needed.
