  • Title: Prepacked take-home analgesia for day case surgery.
    Author: Marquardt HM, Razis PA.
    Journal: Br J Nurs; ; 5(18):1114-8. PubMed ID: 9006170.
    Abstract:
    Postoperative pain is one of the main barriers to increasing the range of procedures suitable for day case surgery. Effective strategies for treating postoperative pain must be developed and tested if this range is to be extended. This article examines the effectiveness of prepacked take-home analgesia in providing pain relief for patients following day case surgery. The composition of the analgesia pack was varied according to the type of operation undertaken.
