Summary
INTRODUCTION
A sound knowledge of postprocedural pain control is essential as interventional radiologists take the lead in managing their patients and as interventional radiology continues to grow as a clinical service. Not only do patients deserve to receive adequate postprocedural pain management but also regulatory and other quality control bodies, such as the Joint Commission on Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations (1) and at least one medical malpractice insurance carrier (2), critically evaluate a practitioner's and hospital plan for pain control after a procedure.
Postprocedural pain is clearly an important issue for interventional radiology and in medicine in general. Consider that in a sample of 250 patients who had recently had surgery, 80% of patients actually experienced acute postoperative pain, 86% of these patients had moderate-to-extreme pain, and 59% cited experiencing postoperative pain as their most common concern (3). Specifically concerning interventional radiology, many multicenter trials examining uterine fibroid embolization (UFE) have found postprocedural pain the most common side effect after the procedure (4) and inadequate pain relief as the most common adverse event after discharge necessitating readmission (5,6,7).
This chapter will review the management of postprocedural pain. A brief summary of the physiological mechanism of pain will be followed by a general treatment strategy, a review of pertinent medications and different techniques for pain control, and then an examination of postprocedural pain strategies for specific procedures, namely, UFE, transarterial hepatic chemoembolization, percutaneous biliary procedures, and various other procedures.
