Efficacy, Safety And Patient Satisfaction Of A Simple Combination Of Readily Available Medications (Shiv-mix) For Perioperative Analgesia, Hemodynamic Stability And Postoperative Recovery Profile: Case Series And Narrative On Opioid Free Anaesthesia (OFA) In Spine Surgeries

Abstract

Opioid-free anesthesia (OFA) is an emerging technique, is a boon especially for limited resource settings(LRS) where opioids availability is limited for perioperative pain management. The current study presents use of a combination of easily available medication as part of multimodal analgesia. These medications are easily available to any physician and our experience demonstrates that in addition to providing satisfactory analgesia, use of this combination also provides better hemodynamic stability and excellent post-operative recovery.
