Naveen Poonai,David Paskar,Shauna Lee Konrad,Michael J. Rieder,Gary Joubert,Rodrick Lim,Asieh Golozar,Asieh Golozar,Sefu Uledi,Andrew Worster,Samina Ali +10 more
TL;DR: The overall quality of evidence is low, suggesting the need for larger, high-quality trials that are powered to detect both serious complications of appendicitis and determine the most efficacious opioid dosing for children.

TL;DR: Ondansetron, dexamethasone, and droperidol each reduced the risk of postoperative nausea and vomiting by about 26 percent, and the safest or least expensive antiemetic interventions should be used first.

Cardiovascular risk and inhibition of cyclooxygenase: A systematic review of the observational studies of selective and nonselective inhibitors of cyclooxygenase 2
TL;DR: It is suggested that celecoxib in commonly used doses may not increase the risk, contradicts claims of a protective effect of naproxen, and raises serious questions about the safety of diclofenac, an older drug.
Journal ArticleDOI
Clinical Significance of Reported Changes in Pain Severity
TL;DR: The minimum clinically significant change in patient pain severity measured with a 100-mm visual analog scale was 13 mm, and studies of pain experience that report less than a 13-mm change in pain severity, although statistically significant, may have no clinical importance.
Journal ArticleDOI
Prospective validation of clinically important changes in pain severity measured on a visual analog scale.
TL;DR: Data from a prospective, observational cohort study of adults presenting to 2 urban emergency departments with pain are virtually identical to previous findings indicating that a difference of 13 mm on a VAS represents the minimum change in acute pain that is clinically significant.

Henrik Kehlet,Kathrine Holte +1 more
TL;DR: This paper reviews data from randomized controlled trials on the effects of these analgesic techniques on postoperative morbidity and hospital stay in order to derive useful conclusions on the relationship between optimal pain relief and postoperative outcome.
