Results:In total, 150 patients were randomized, with 17 withdrawals from treatment and 2 losses to follow-up but with data analyzed for all participants on an intention-to-treat basis. The prevalence of pain was lower at 3 postoperative months for pregabalin alone (6% [3 of 50]) and in combination with ketamine (2% [1 of 50]) compared to the control group (34% [17 of 50]; odds ratio = 0.126 [0.022 to 0.5], P = 0.0008; and 0.041 [0.0009 to 0.28], P < 0.0001, respectively) and at 6 months for pregabalin alone (6% [3 of 50]) and in combination with ketamine 0% (0 of 5) compared to the control group (28% [14 of 50]; odds ratio = 0.167 [0.029 to 0.7], P = 0.006; and 0.000 [0 to 0.24], P < 0.0001). Diplopia was more common in both active arms.
Conclusion:Preoperative administration of 150 mg of pregabalin and postoperative continuation twice daily for 14 days significantly lowered the prevalence of persistent pain after cardiac surgery.
