NSAIDS Following Elective Lumbar Spine Fusion

This study will compare two common approaches to pain control after lumbar spinal fusion surgery. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive either standard pain medication alone or standard pain medication plus a short course of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), including intravenous ketorolac while in the hospital and oral naproxen for one week after discharge. The main goal is to determine whether taking NSAIDs after surgery affects how well the spine heals by increasing the chance of needing another surgery because the bones did not fuse properly within 2 years. The study will also evaluate pain medication use, recovery, hospital readmissions, complications, physical therapy progress, patient-reported pain and function, and overall healing. The results will help determine whether NSAIDs can be used safely as part of pain management after lumbar spinal fusion surgery while potentially reducing the need for opioid medications.

Comparison of Two Dosing Regimens of Intravenous Ketorolac for Post-Cesarean Pain Control

we aim to compare the analgesic efficacy of two intravenous ketorolac dosing regimens as part of a multimodal analgesic protocol that includes local wound infiltration for postoperative pain management after elective cesarean delivery.

Fentanyl Versus Ketorolac as an Adjuvant to Peribulbar Block for Anterior Segment Surgeries

This study aims to compare the efficacy of ketorolac and fentanyl as adjuvants to local anesthetics for anterior segment surgeries of the eye.
