Brief Summary

This study evaluates the addition of tramadol, or nefopam or opioid to paracetamol and ketoprofene in the treatment of pain in adults after shoulder ambulatory surgery. In a first step, 30 patients will receive tramadol as rescue analgesia in combination with paracetamol and ketoprofene, while the other will receive nefopam or opioid in a sequential analysis that will be performed every 20 patients using the QoR 40 survey.

    Day 2

Study Arms (4)

Paracetamol+ ketoprofene and Tramadol

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Paracetamol per os 1g every 6 hours and ketoprofene 100 mg per os every 12 hours were systematically administered. Tramadol 100 mg per os every 6 hours was added when pain was \> 3/10 on a numeric ranking scale (0 no pain, 10 worst pain).

Drug: Tramadol

Paracetamol+ ketoprofene+ Nefopam and Tramadol

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Paracetamol per os 1g every 6 hours and ketoprofene 100 mg per os every 12 hours and Nefopam 120 mg intravenously were systematically administered. Tramadol 100 mg per os every 6 hours was added when pain was \> 3/10 on a numeric ranking scale (0 no pain, 10 worst pain).

Drug: TramadolDrug: Nefopam 20 MG/ML

Paracetamol+ ketoprofene and morphine

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Paracetamol per os 1g every 6 hours and ketoprofene 100 mg per os every 12 hours were systematically administered. Opioid immediate release (morphine 10 mg) per os every 6 hours was added when pain was \> 3/10 on a numeric ranking scale (0 no pain, 10 worst pain).

Drug: Morphine Sulfate

Paracetamol+ ketoprofene+Opioid delayed release and morphine

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Paracetamol per os 1g every 6 hours and ketoprofene 100 mg per os every 12 hours and 20 mg of opioid delayed release (Oxycodone) were systematically administered. Opioid immediate release (morphine 10 mg) per os every 6 hours was added when pain was \> 3/10 on a numeric ranking scale (0 no pain, 10 worst pain).

Drug: Morphine SulfateDrug: Oxycodone 20mg
