  • Title: Balanced analgesia after hysterectomy: the effect on outcomes.
    Author: Newton SE, Robinson J, Kozac J.
    Journal: Medsurg Nurs; 2004 Jun; 13(3):176-80, 199. PubMed ID: 15219166.
    Abstract:
    Balanced analgesia (an opioid and a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory agent) after hysterectomy often leads to better postoperative pain outcomes. Researchers compared post-hysterectomy patients who received balanced analgesia with those who received only morphine patient-controlled analgesia, and their relationship with pain scores, ambulation, and hospital length of stay.
