AIM: To evaluate if pre-and post-procedure administration of controlled-release oxycodone (CRO) in combination with standard analgesia improves pain control and decreases the amount of required post-procedure opioids in uterine fibroid embolisation (UFE). MATERIALS AND METHODS: Between January 2009 and March 2010, 60 consecutive women were prospectively randomised in two groups for UFE: the control group, in which 30 patients underwent the standard anaesthetic procedure and the CRO group, in which 30 patients underwent the standard anaesthetic procedure with the addition of CRO. Age, pain, nausea/ vomiting, fibroid volume, length of hospital stay, and use and dose of morphine received via the patient-controlled analgesia (PCA) device in both groups were evaluated to compare the two methods of pain control. Fibroid volume as measured at magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) was evaluated for correlation with post-embolisation pelvic pain over a period of 24 hours. RESULTS: A significant difference was seen in the pain scores at 24 hours (p = 0.029), with less pain in the CRO group. More patients from the control group required morphine (p = 0.017), and at higher levels (p = 0.130). Pruritus was lower in patients of the CRO group, probably because they received less morphine (p = 0.029). No correlation was seen between leiomyoma volume and pain levels over 24 hours (Spearman's r = 0.02; p = 0.881). Length of hospital stay was not different between the two groups. CONCLUSION: The addition of CRO to standard analgesia for UFE provides more effective analgesia, with a reduction in pain scores in 24 hours, less morphine use, and decreased side effects, mainly pruritus.
