[Nalbuphine hydrochloride (Nubain) for postoperative analgesia].

A new opioid analgetic (Nalbufin hydrochloride) was applied to 28 patients having undergone abdominal operations. The time of application of the analgetic agent was determined by the patient himself, in accordance with the five-grade classification of pain, offered by Beaver and Feise. It is pointed out that nalbufin hydrochloride has adequate analgetic power and duration of analgetic activity which makes it suitable for postoperative analgesia.

[The effect of nalbuphine hydrochloride (Nubain) on respiration in surgical patients].

The effect of nalbufin hydrochloride (Nubain) on breathing was studied in 28 patients after abdominal operations. It was shown that, regardless of its partial effect on the mu-receptors, Nubain caused no respiratory disturbances. The authors recommend it for analgesia in abdominal operations, but only after careful evaluation of the general status and the respiratory function in the operated patient.
