Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Change in 11-point scale NRS pain score

    Change in pain score compared to baseline Score '0' representing one pain extreme (e.g. "no pain") to '10' representing the other pain extreme (e.g. "pain as bad as you can imagine" or "worst pain imaginable"

    30 minutes after administration

Secondary Outcomes (7)

  • Change in 11-point scale NRS pain score

    15, 45, 60 minutes after administration

  • sum of pain intensity difference(SPID)

    60 minutes after administration

  • number of additional doses

    immediately after the intervention

  • Pain interference

    immediately after the intervention

  • Insomnia

    immediately after the intervention

  • +2 more secondary outcomes

Study Arms (2)

IV PCA (proportional dosage)

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Breakthrough pain control by bolus based IV patient-controlled anagesia Fentanyl bolus = MME \* 15%

Drug: Intravenous Infusion

SL-FTN (equivalent dose for PCA bolus)

EXPERIMENTAL

Breakthrough pain control by sublingual fentanyl Fentanyl 100mcg/200mcg/300mcg according to the around-the-clock opioid requirement.

Drug: Sublingual Tablet

Interventions

IV PCA(fentanyl) Fentanyl bolus = MME \* 15%

Also known as: PCA
IV PCA (proportional dosage)

subligual fentanyl(Narco®) Fentanyl 100mcg/200mcg/300mcg according to the around-the-clock opioid requirement.
