The morphine is the opioid most frequently used by neuroaxial via to provide postsurgery analgesia; nonetheless, there are controversies about the analgesia level and about the incidence of adverse reactions. The objective was evaluating and comparing the analgesia obtained administering lyophilized morphine by subarachnoid and epidural via. We carried out an analytic, prospective, randomized study in 100 patients ASA I y ASA II, subjected to retropubic prostatectomy, divided into two groups . The patients of the Group E received 2 mg of lyophilized morphine, and those in Group S, 0, 1 mg of the same analgesic. The analgesia was evaluated with the application of the Visual Analogue Scale at the 1 st , 8 th , 16 th , 24 th and 36 th hours after recuperation; the complications were evaluated too. In both groups, the Visual Analogue Scale value was >4 after the 24th hour of recuperation. There was not intense pain at any moment. There was a bigger quantity of patients with pain in the Group E, and also a bigger demand of analgesics. The media postsurgery analgesia time was similar in both groups. Although the intensity of pain and the analgesic consume of the Group S was fewer, they also presented more complications.Downloads
