A prospective, randomized, comparative study was conducted. 3 analgesia protocols were used: 1) patient controlled analgesia (PCA) with trimeperidine in combination with a nefopam constant infusion; 2) PCA with trimeperidine in combination with a nefopam bolus; 3) PCA with trimeperidine separately during early postoperative period in cardiac surgery patients. The study included 60 patients agedf rom 40 to 65 years of age (20 patients in each group). The analgesia efficacy was evaluated with a 5-point verbal rating scale (VRS) for pain intensity and inspiratory lung capacity (ILC), measured with incentive spirometer. The safety of nefopam during early postoperative period in cardiac surgery patients was shown. The combination of nefopam and trimeperidine led to a more pronounced analgetic effect. Trimeperidine consumption was significantly lower in nefopam groups than in the group of isolated PCA. Wholly adverse effects were associated with trimeperidine and were dose-related The incidence of nausea, vomiting, dizziness, weakness, bowel paresis was significantly higher in isolated PCA group than in the other two groups.

4 combinations of analgesia were studied: 1) Nefopam and patient-controlled analgesia (PCA) with Trimeperidine; 2) Ketoprofen (100 microg each 12 hours intramuscular) and PCA with Trimeperidine; 3) Nefopam, Ketoprofen and PCA with Trimeperidine; 4) PCA with Trimeperidine as monotherapy in early postoperative period in cardio-surgical patients. 80 patients (age from 40 to 70) were divided into 4 groups, 20 patients in each group. Administration of Nefopam and Ketoprofen before extubation reduced the intensity of pain syndrome (in average on 90%) and promoted the early stirring up of patients. Combination of Nefopam and Ketoprofen provided the most expressed analgesic and opioids-saving effects. In this group average amount of Trimeperidine per 24 hours was 14.7 microg that was 4.9 times less than in group of PCA with Trimeperidine as monotherapy. Dynamics of maximal inspiratory capacity of the lungs in the first three groups was better than in group of PCA with Trimeperidine as monotherapy beginning from 6th hour of study. In common undesirable effects was connected with Trimeperidine administration and depended on its dose. The frequency of nausea, vomit, dizziness and weakness was authentically higher in the group of PCA with Trimeperidine as monotherapy than in other groups.
