sir, regarding the last question, if Anne is undergoing diagnostic test which will be over in a predictable time, why do we need to give round the clock morphine, instead of staring oral dose. and for how long do we give round the clock iv morphine,
sir, if we give 1.5 mg of iv morphine for 10/10 pain, wait 10 to 15 minutes and then give another increment till pain score is 4/10, it will take more than an hour for getting a satisfactory pain relief, i think it is a long time to suffer with severe pain, why not give every 5 minutes and let there be pain relief in 30 minutes. we also need to give antiemetic prior to starting the regimen, that isnt discussed here, which antiemetic and by what route.
if there is constipation with tab Bisacodyl 10 mg tablet, instead of giving 20 mg, isnt it better to give a suppository for rectal evacuation. thank you.
