Non-Opioid Perioperative Pain Strategies for the Clinician: A Narrative Review

Abstract: Alternative and non-opioid options for pain management are necessary in perioperative patient care. Opioids are no longer touted as cure-all medications, and furthermore, there have been tremendous advances in alternative therapies such as in interventional pain, physical therapy, exercise, and nutritional counseling that have proven benefits to combat pain. The center for disease control now strongly recommends the use of multimodal analgesia and multidisciplinary approaches based on the individual needs of p… Show more

“…The paradigm is not simply “opioid avoidance,” and requires balancing the risks of both over- and under-utilization of these high-risk agents. To this end, postoperative opioid minimization should be pursued only in the greater context of optimizing acute pain management, reducing adverse events, and preventing persistent postoperative pain through comprehensive multimodal analgesia [ 19 , 33 , 55 , 56 , 57 , 58 , 59 , 60 , 61 ]. Multimodal analgesia, or the use of multiple modalities of differing mechanisms of action, is key to decreasing surgical recovery times and complications, and so is also a fundamental component of the enhanced recovery paradigm promoted by the international Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS ® ) Society [ 19 , 24 , 62 , 63 , 64 , 65 ].…”

“…While evidence is insufficient to strongly recommend specific strategies, perioperative cognitive-behavioral therapies including guided imagery and music therapy are noninvasive and unlikely to cause harm. Their positive effects on reducing anxiety may provide downstream benefits to narcotic avoidance and analgesia, but further study is needed [ 15 , 55 , 156 , 157 , 158 , 159 , 160 ]. Massage and physiotherapy have contributed to improved pain control in other settings and are being explored for perioperative applications [ 55 ].…”
