Brief Summary

Cesarean section is one of the surgeries most commonly leading to postoperative severe acute pain. It was reported that the mean worst pain intensity reached to 6.14 one day after cesarean section in Germany. Inadequate pain management may result in the cardiorespiratory complications, late recovery, and postoperative chronic pain. According to a series of pain management article published in the Lancent in 2019, the incidence of post-cesarean section chronic pain was 55%, including 12% of severe chronic pain. Extended-release dinalbuphine sebacate, a prodrug of nalbuphine, is a novel analgesic developed in Taiwan and the indication is moderate to severe postoperative pain. After intramuscular injected, dinalbuphine sebacate will be released to blood stream and immediately hydrolyzed. In Taiwan, dinalbuphine sebacate has been used for alleviating pain after several types of surgeries, such as colorectal surgery, orthopaedics, gynecology and obstetrics. However, few post-marketing studies investigated the efficacy and safety of dinalbuphine sebacate.

    Analgesic-related complication occurring in the period of hospital stay will be recorded, such as dizziness, nausea, vomiting, and injection site reaction.

    Within 5 days after injection of dinalbuphine sebacate

Secondary Outcomes (4)

  • Post-cesarean section pain intensity

    Within 5 days after delivery

  • Consumption of analgesics

    Within 5 days after delivery

  • Concentration of nalbuphine in breast milk

    Within 5 days after delivery

Study Arms (1)

DS group

Subjects going to receive dinalbuphine sebacate for post-cesarean section pain.

Drug: Dinalbuphine sebacate

Interventions

After giving the birth, subjects are intramuscularly injected with a single dose of 150 mg of dinalbuphine sebacate (DS). DS is a prodrug of nalbuphine. After injeciton, DS are released to blood stream and hydrolyzed immediately. The onset of action is 12 to 24 hours and the analgesic effect can last about 5 to 7 days.
