Abstract
Profound and long-lasting analgesia (mean duration of pain relief 33.4 h, range 22.5--73.5 h) was produced by intrathecal administration of 3 mg synthetic beta-endorphin in all of 14 patients with intractable pain due to disseminated cancer. No respiratory depression, hypotension, hypothermia, or catatonia was observed.Entities:
