Continuous vs. Bolus Administration of NSAIDs After Laparoscopic Surgery for Multimodal Analgesia

Plain-language summary
Currently the prevalent approach to perioperative management of patients is ERAS (Enhanced Recovery After Surgery) concept. This approach includes numerous aspects, among which the perioperative use of multimodal analgesia takes one of the leading places. Within the ERAS guidelines all sorts of minimization of opioid analgesics use in schemes of postoperative analgesia are appreciated. Thus, new pharmacological approaches are being actively developed currently in order to achieve adequate analgesia and to minimize the use of this group of drugs.
One of the most perspective trends within the multimodal analgesia concept is continuous infusion of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAID). Up to date there are papers that both confirm the effectiveness of this method for maintaining adequate postoperative analgesia and show its limitations and deny the advantages of the continuous use of NSAID.
Up to this time the main attention of the medical community was paid for such drugs as paracetamol and ketoprofen. Nevertheless, one of the most common and safe NSAID is ibuprofen. In spite of this, there are no studies that explore the effectiveness of the continuous infusion of this drug. Thus, the lack of even low-quality evidence led to setting up a study of effectiveness and safety of continuous infusion of ibuprofen in comparison to its bolus injection.

Questions worth asking your doctor
Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?

Questions for the trial coordinator
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?
A starting point for the conversation — always confirm anything about your own eligibility, costs, and care with the study team and your doctor.
