Identification of the genetic polymorphisms that could be correlated either with a better clinical response or with a major predisposition of patients to develop tolerance and/or side effects to the treatment with morphine.
Name: morphine chlorhydrate
Description: The drug will be administrated by a bolus 45 minutes before the end of the surgery, with the following modalities: bolus with morphine chlorhydrate 0.15 mg/kg ± 20%. Also acetaminophene 1g and ketoprofen 160 mg (ketorolac 30mg) will be administrated during the operation. At the exit of the operative compartment patients will have an continuous infusion for 48h with morphine chlorhydrate 0,02 mg/kg/h. Moreover, a rescue dose therapy will be prescribed with ketoprofen 160 mg or ketorolac 30mg (in case of allergy acetaminophene 1g) if NRS<4 maximum x 3 daily. Postoperative analgesic treatment is lasting 48h for each patient (between starting of the infusion (T0) and the following 48h).Type: DrugGroup A Group B
Description: Valuation of the rescue doses necessary to maintain NRS<4 in the first 24 hours post-surgery in the two groups of patients, A e B. Group A: homozygous patients for the more frequent allele of the polymorphism A118G of OPRM1 gene (about 80%); group B: both homozygous and heterozygous patients for the less frequent allele (about 20%).
Measure: Assessment of the rescue doses in the two groups homozygous patients for the more frequent allele of the polymorphism A118G of OPRM1 gene; group B: both homozygous and heterozygous patients for the less frequent allele Time: first 24 h after surgeryDescription: Frequency of the variants at the loci OPRM1, COMT, UGTs, ESR1, both in patients with NRS ≤4 and in those having NRS >4 at least once during 24 hours.
Measure: Variants at the loci OPRM1, COMT, UGTs, ESR1,towards median pain measure Time: during 24 h postsurgeryDescription: Frequency of the variants at the loci OPRM1, COMT, UGTs, ESR1, both in patients with NRS ≤4 and in those having NRS >4 at least once during the period between 24-48 hours postsurgery.
Measure: Variants at the loci OPRM1, COMT, UGTs, ESR1,towards median pain measure Time: period between 24 - 48 h postsurgeryDescription: Pharmacokinetic study of both morphine and its principal active and/or toxic metabolites (M3G and M6G).
Measure: Pharmacokinetics of morphine during continuous administration after surgery Time: 48 h after surgeryDescription: Detection of the possible side effects after continuous morphine administration
Measure: Detection of the possible side effects. Time: 72 h postoprativelyDescription: Detection of the association between M3G/M6G ratio and polymorphisms of UGTs and its possible side effects.
Measure: Detection of the association between M3G/M6G ratio and polymorphisms of UGTs Time: within 72 h postoperativelyCohort
