Os pacientes negros são menos propensos a receber analgesia multimodal do que os brancos após grandes cirurgias, sugerindo potencial viés racial no controle da dor. Study finds Black patients less likely to receive multimodal analgesia than whites after major surgeries, suggesting potential racial bias in pain management.

Um estudo apresentado na reunião anual da Sociedade Americana de Anestesiologistas revela que os pacientes negros são menos propensos a receber analgesia multimodal - uma estratégia abrangente de gerenciamento de dor - em comparação com pacientes brancos após grandes cirurgias. A study presented at the American Society of Anesthesiologists' annual meeting reveals that Black patients are less likely to receive multimodal analgesia—a comprehensive pain management strategy—compared to white patients after major surgeries. Especificamente, os pacientes negros eram 29% menos propensos a receber esse método e 74% mais propensos a receber opioides orais. Specifically, Black patients were 29% less likely to receive this method and 74% more likely to be prescribed oral opioids. Os resultados sugerem potencial viés racial na gestão da dor, justificando uma investigação mais aprofundada sobre essas disparidades. The findings suggest potential racial bias in pain management, warranting further investigation into these disparities.
