This study aimed to assess the efficacy and safety of the new system in Chinese patients with moderate to severe cancer pain. Methods: A total of 474 patients with moderate to severe cancer pain were enrolled in this study and were treated with the new transdermal fentanyl matrix patch (TDF) up to 2 weeks. All the patients were asked to record pain intensity, side effects, quality of life (QOL), adherence and global satisfaction. The initial dose of fentanyl was 25 ?g/h titrated with opioid or according to National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) guidelines. Transdermal fentanyl was changed every three days. Results: After 2 weeks. The mean pain intensity of the 459 evaluated patients decreased significantly from 5.63?1.26 to 2.03?1.46 (P<0.0001). The total remission rate was 91.29%, of which moderate remission rate 53.16%, obvious remission rate 25.49% and complete remission rate 12.64%. The rate of adverse events was 33.75%, 18.78% of which were moderate and 3.80% were severe. The most frequent adverse events were constipation and nausea. No fatal events were observed. The quality of life was remarkably improved after the treatment (P<0.0001). Conclusion: The new TDF is effective and safe in treating patients with moderate to severe cancer pain, and can significantly improve the quality of life.展开更多

Methods: A retrospective study was carried on in 20 patients with cancer pain in Shizuoka Cancer Center from Sep. 2002 to Nov. 2003. Pain intensity, adverse reactions, and satisfaction index of patients were evaluated. Results: The pain intensity was stable in 17 patients indicating good pain-control within 1 week after conversion and unstable in 3 patients after conversion suggesting poor pain-control. Fentanyl injection could alleviate side effects and increase the satisfaction index of patients. Conclusion: The equipotent ratio for conversion of low dose morphine to fentanyl injection was established as 72:1, and for non low dose morphine a ratio less than 72:1 was proposed to get stable pain-relieving effect. But the equipotent ratio for conversion of morphine to continuous infusion of fentanyl could not be determined. We must consider the morphine dose before the confirmation of the conversing rate.展开更多

In these situations, opioid addiction is an important concern because of the dependency on opioids. The study aims to compare the effectiveness of intravenous(IV) fentanyl versus morphine in reducing pain in patients with opioid addiction who suffered from ATLI.METHODS: In this double-blind randomized clinical trial, 320 patients with ATLI, who presented to the emergency department(ED) from February 2016 to April 2016, were randomly divided into two groups. One group(160 patients) received 0.1 mg/kg IV morphine. The other group(160 patients) received 1 mcg/kg IV fentanyl. Patients' demographic data, pain score at specif ic intervals, vital signs, side effects, satisfaction and the need for rescue analgesia were recorded.RESULTS: Eight patients in the morphine group and five patients in the fentanyl group were excluded. Pain score in the fentanyl group had a significant decrease at 5-minute follow-up(P value=0.00). However, at 10, 30, and 60-minute follow-ups no signifi cant differences were observed between the two groups in terms of pain score reduction. The rescue analgesia was required in 12(7.7%) patients in the fentanyl group and in 48(31.6%) patients in the morphine group(P value=0.00). No signifi cant difference was observed regarding side effects, vital signs and patients' satisfaction between the two groups.CONCLUSION: Fentanyl might be an effective and safe drug in opioid addicts suffering from ATLI.展开更多
