Abstract
BACKGROUND: Considering that patients with opioid dependence are at higher risk of inadequate sedation during operations, and the rescue analgesia in these patients are usually greater than the general population; the aim of this study was comparison of sedation quality of dexmedetomidine and morphine in patients with opioid use disorder undergoing cataract surgery. METHODS: This clinical trial was conducted on 60 patients with opioid use disorder underwent cataract surgery that were referred to Feiz Hospital, Isfahan, Iran in 2018. Patients were randomly divided into two groups as the dexmedetomidine group started 1 μg/kg dexmedetomidine in 10 minutes before surgery and then continued with 0.5 μg/kg/h while the morphine group received 0.1 mg/kg of morphine before surgery. Sedation score, pain intensity, hemodynamic parameters, analgesic request and side effects were compared in the two groups. RESULTS: There was no significant differences between groups based on Ramsay score before, during and after surgery (P > 0.05), the pain intensity in the morphine group was significantly lower during the recovery period than dexmedetomidine group, the duration of recovery and sedation in the morphine group was significantly more than the dexmedetomidine group, and nausea and vomiting and eye pain in the morphine group were significantly higher than dexmedetomidine (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION:Morphine usage was more effective in pain relief than dexmedetomidine in patients with opioid use disorder undergoing cataract surgery, but the complications and recovery time were higher in morphine usage. Also the sedation was similar in both groups. AJCEI
