Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The investigators examined the efficacy of nefopam in patients undergoing kidney transplantation.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Drug combination are frequently used to relieve postoperative pain. Nefopam can inhibit serotonin, dopamine, and norepinephrine reuptake through central mechanisms. Several studies have demonstrated analgesic efficacy of nefopam in the postoperative period. The purpose of this study is to ascertain the analgesic effect and tolerance of intravenous nefopam in combination with fentanyl based patient-controlled analgesia after kidney transplantation.
