Protocol summary

Summary
40 patients 18-60 years old after major surgical operation (laparatomy, vertebral column operation, head and neck surgeries, pelvic operation, femoral operation) randomly will be allocated in one of two groups: PCA with morphine and TCI with sufentanil. The patients should be awake and no artificial ventilation needed. In the first group, patients will receive morphine sulphate with PCA pump 1 mg IV as bolus dose, then 1 mg/hour as continuous dose and 1 mg when patients demand (with lock out time of 20 min), in second group after operation, patients will receive sufentanil as analgesic with TCI pump with brain target concentration of 0.2 ng/ml. The goal of analgesic administration is to keep visual analogue scale(VAS) less than 3. VAS will be measured and recorded every 2 hour. If VAS>3, the continuous dose of morphine will be increased to 2 mg/h in the first group and the target brain concentration will be increased to 0.3 in second group. The mean of VAS in 24h after operation in two groups will be compared. Side effects such as nausea and vomiting, pruritus, depressed ventilation, decreased consciousness and vital signs will be compared between two groups. Ease of use of pump by personnel and patients satisfaction will also be compared.
