Este documento discute la analgesia multimodal en el manejo del dolor. Resume que 1) el dolor crónico requiere un enfoque multimodal que involucre sistemas inhibitorios endógenos como la anandamida, 2) los AINES pueden usarse como parte de la analgesia multimodal pero requieren precauciones debido a los riesgos gastrointestinales y cardiovasculares, especialmente en pacientes con múltiples factores de riesgo, y 3) la sinergia entre analgésicos con diferentes mecanismos de acción puede reducir los efectos adversos y

de los sistemas nociceptivos por una noxa
• Función de protección biológica (alarma en
tejido lesionado).
• De naturaleza nociceptiva, aparece por
estimulación química, mecánica o térmica de
nociceptores específicos.

Chronic pain is a multifaceted disease requiring multimodal treatment. Clinicians routinely employ various combinations of pharmacologic, interventional, cognitive-behavioral, rehabilitative, and other nonmedical therapies despite the paucity of robust evidence in support of such an approach. Therapies are selected consistent with the biopsychosocial model of chronic pain, reflecting the subjective nature of the pain complaint, and the myriad stressors that shape it. Elucidating mechanisms that govern normal sensation in the periphery has provided insights into the biochemical, molecular, and neuroanatomic correlates of chronic pain, an understanding of which is leading increasingly to mechanism-specific multidrug therapies. Peripheral and central neuroplastic reorganization underlying the disease of chronic pain is influenced by patient-specific emotions, cognition, and memories, further impairing function and idiosyncratically defining the illness of chronic pain. Clinical perceptions of these and related subjective elements associated with the suffering of chronic pain drive psychosocial treatments, including, among other options, relaxation therapies, coping skills development, and cognitive-behavioral therapy. Treatment selection is thus guided by comprehensive assessment of the phenomenology and inferred pathophysiology of the pain syndrome; patient goals, preferences, and expectations; behavioral, cognitive, and physical function; and level of risk. Experiential, practice-based evidence may be necessary for improving patient care, but it is insufficient; certainly, well-designed studies are needed to support therapeutic decision making. This review will discuss the biochemical basis of pain, factors that govern its severity and chronicity, and foundational elements for current and emerging multimodal treatment strategies.

Electron micrographs showing CB1 receptor immunogold labeling (small arrows) in axon terminals forming either an asymmetric synapse with a dendritic spine in the Acb shell (A) or a symmetric synapse with a larger dendrite in the Acb core (B). These target spines and dendrites exhibit diffuse immunoperoxidase labeling for μ- opioid receptor throughout their cytoplasm (Mu-s and Mu-d, respectively). In B, one terminal (Dt) contains both immunogold CB1 receptor and immunoperoxidase labeling for μ- opioid receptor. The peroxidase immunoreactivity is particular dense along a membranous structure presumed to be smooth endoplasmic reticulum (ser).

The prevalence of US features suggestive of an inflammatory process, either synovitis or effusion, was quite high (47%). A large group of patients also had US detected effusion and no detectable synovitis (30%). These findings may reflect the strict definitions of synovitis and effusion employed in this study; and, possibly, microscopic synovitis may exist in the absence of US detected synovial hypertrophy. We found those subjects with knee OA with a more severe radiological grade (K&L grade >3) and moderate or important knee joint effusion on clinical examination had an increased probability of synovitis being detected at US examination (odds ratio (OR)=2.20 and 1.97, respectively).

Descripción Oxaprozin Oxaprozin, el principio activo de Duraprox ® , es un derivado del ácido propiónico, que pertenece al grupo de los agentes antiinflamatorios no-esteroideos o AINES, que a diferencia de otros de la clase, posee características particulares que lo diferencian de forma notable de los demás miembros de la familia de derivados propiónicos, como ibuprofeno, diclofenaco. Duraprox inhibe de manera no selectiva las ciclooxigenasas, es decir que inhibe tanto la COX-1 como la COX-2, razón por la cual es un potente inhibidor de la síntesis de prostaglandinas, gracias a lo cual ejerce un efecto anti-inflamatorio con acción analgésica. Muchos de los AINES, algunos de los cuales son derivados del ácido propiónico, poseen centros de quiralidad dentro de su estructura molecular; a diferencia de las formas R o S, oxaprozin no posee enantiómeros, lo que significa que no hay otras moléculas con actividad farmacológica adicional. La quiralidad tiene efectos notables sobre la toxicidad y las interacciones de la molécula. La molécula está compuesta una parte propiónica alifática hidrofìlica y una lipofílica con anillos cíclicos y heterocíclicos, como puede apreciarse en la gráfica. Esta estructura es novedosa, y le brinda a Duraprox ® características farmacocinéticas especiales, como es el caso de la elevada concentración que alcanza en los tejidos sinoviales por su lipofilia. Oxaprozin, es un ácido débil con un Pka de 4.3-5.2 en agua, gracias a lo cual tiene poca difusión a mucosa gástrica lo cual es responsable de su seguridad digestiva.
Hemodializados DURAPROX Clin Pharmacol Ther. 1988 Sep;44(3):303-9. Effect of chronic renal failure on oxaprozin multiple-dose pharmacokinetics. Audet PR , Knowles JA , Troy SM , Walker BR , Morrison G . Source Renal Electrolyte Section, Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia. Abstract The effects of renal disease on the steady-state kinetics of oxaprozin were assessed in eight patients on hemodialysis with normal serum albumin levels and eight normal subjects who received six doses. A larger clearance and volume of distribution at steady state for total and unbound oxaprozin occurred in the patients on hemodialysis. The elimination half-lives were not different. The mean total AUC, peak concentration, average steady-state plasma concentration, and trough concentration for total and unboundoxaprozin were decreased in the patients on hemodialysis. These differences are consistent with impaired absorption of oxaprozinin patients on hemodialysis. The higher dose-averaged unbound fraction of oxaprozin in plasma in patients on hemodialysis may be caused by endogenous binding inhibitors. Because clearance was not reduced in patients on hemodialysis, the dose of oxaprozinmay not need to be reduced when albumin levels are normal. In some patients oxaprozin may cause reversible elevations of blood urea and creatinine levels. Patients at risk of impairment of renal function are those with already compromised renal blood flow (i.e. those with sodium restriction or volume depletion, on concomitant diuretic therapy or with pre-existing renal impairment, congestive heart failure, liver cirrhosis or elderly patients particularly with low lean body mass). http://www.fda.gov/ohrms/dockets/ac/02/briefing/3882b2_06_international%20ibuprofen%20foundation.htm The incidence of adverse events is summarised in Table 1. Significant adverse events were reported by 18.7% of patients taking aspirin, 13.7% of those taking ibuprofen and by 14.6% of those taking acetaminophen (p<0.001 for aspirin vs. ibuprofen). Significant gastrointestinal events were less frequent with ibuprofen (4.0%) than with aspirin (7.1%, p<0.001) or acetaminophen (5.3%) (p=0.025), in particular dyspepsia (1.4% vs. 3.1% with aspirin, p<0.001; and 2.2% with acetaminophen, p<0.019), abdominal pain (2.8% vs. 6.8% with aspirin, p<0.001; and 3.9% with acetaminophen, p<0.24); nausea was more frequent with aspirin (2.5%) than ibuprofen (p=0.01) or acetaminophen (1.5% each). There were no significant differences between the treatments in events associated with other organ systems. Subgroup analysis showed that the risk of adverse effects was not significantly different by age, sex and indication.

Abstract OBJECTIVE: To observe the rate of efficacy and adverse drug reaction of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) in the population with osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis, based on available clinical data. METHODS: Using Meta analysis to evaluate the data of effect and safety profile of NSAIDs from 19 articles on randomized clinical trials published from 1990 to 2001 in Chinese journals. The total number of patients enrolled for evaluation on rates of effectiveness and adverse drug reaction were 1 732 and 2 925, respectively. RESULTS: Data on the effect and safety were comparatively heterogeneous among different kinds of NSAIDs. The effective rates (95% CI) were as follows: nabunetone, 66.7% (61.9% - 71.4%); meloxicam, 68.4% (59.2% - 77.6%); naproxen, 64.5% (59.8% - 69.1%); nimesulide, 79.8% (75.7% - 84.0%); ibuprofen, 77.2% (70.7% - 83.8%); diclofenac, 77.1% (69.2% - 85.0%); oxaprozin, 65.8% (59.5% - 72.0%). Rates of adverse drug reaction (95% CI) were as follows: nabunetone, 16.3% (12.5% - 20.0%); meloxicam, 10.2% (4.2% - 16.2%); naproxen, 29.2% (24.8% - 33.6%); nimesulide, 20.2% (16.0% - 24.3%); ibuprofen, 16.7% (14.7% - 18.8%); diclofenac, 19.3% (11.9% - 26.7%); oxaprozin, 12.7% (8.9% - 16.7%) respectively . CONCLUSION: The rates of effect and adverse reaction on patients having osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis with NSAIDs treatment would largely depend on the drugs being used. Within 2 - 8 weeks of treatment, the effective rate and rate of adverse drug reaction with commonly used NSAIDs as nabumeton, meloxicam, etc., were 59.2% - 85.0% and 4.2% - 33.6%, respectively.
