Prevalence and Predictors of Severity of Rebound Pain After Regional Anesthesia in Patients Undergoing Orthopedic Surgery: A Cross-Sectional Study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Rebound pain (RP) is an acute, burning, or dull-aching type of pain that occurs following the resolution of regional anesthesia. It is a common but understudied problem in orthopedic patients undergoing surgery under regional anesthesia. This study aimed to determine the prevalence and predictors of RP severity in patients undergoing orthopedic surgeries.

Methods

A cross-sectional study was conducted involving 364 patients who underwent orthopedic surgery and received regional anesthesia. To determine factors associated with the severity of RP, bivariable and multivariable ordinal logistic regression analyses were conducted. Both crude and adjusted odds ratios with their corresponding 95% confidence interval were calculated to determine the strength of association
