大麻与CBD用于止痛 资料

This is the clinical evidence summary written for health professionals. It is technical, and it lists the research this page was built from. You do not need to read it to understand your treatment or to make a decision about it.

Overview

• Cannabidiol (CBD) can be considered in a postoperative multimodal pain management regimen without detrimental effects on patient-reported outcomes at 1-year follow-up after arthroscopic rotator cuff repair [1].
• CBD can be considered in a postoperative multimodal pain management regimen without long-term functional deficits at 1-year follow-up after arthroscopic rotator cuff repair [2].
• Cannabis-based medicines are applicable for the treatment of peripheral neuropathy and neuropathic pain [3].
• 89% of participants in a survey of musculoskeletal pain patients considered medical cannabis to be more effective than narcotics for adequate pain management [4].
• Regular cannabis use may be associated with increased opioid usage in the context of total joint arthroplasty [5].
• No specific guidance for the use of cannabis in perioperative pain management can be suggested based on the association between regular cannabis use and increased opioid usage after total joint arthroplasty [5].
• Patients estimated that medical cannabis could treat more than half of their spine pain [6].
• One in three patients with spine pain were already using medical cannabis [6].
• 79% of patients with spine pain believe cannabis could reduce opioid usage [6].
• Most survey respondents in the orthopaedic sports medicine community believed that CBD has a role in postoperative and chronic pain management [7].
• Large numbers of patients with osteoarthritis of the thumb basal joint would be interested in trialing either oral or topical formulations of medical cannabis for treatment of their pain [8].
• 80.9% of patients presenting for hand and upper-extremity complaints would consider using medical cannabis [9].
• Patients presenting for hand and upper-extremity complaints perceive medical cannabis as a safe treatment option for common orthopedic conditions [9].
• Cost is identified as a major barrier to the use of medical cannabis by patients presenting for hand and upper-extremity complaints [9].
• A synthetic form of THC does not appear to limit opioid intake after primary total knee arthroplasty [10].
• Current evidence demonstrates efficacy and safety for chronic musculoskeletal and neuropathic pain [19].
• Definitive conclusions regarding the efficacy of medical cannabis in hand and upper extremity conditions require continued investigation [19].

How It Works

• Cannabidiol (CBD) can be considered in a postoperative multimodal pain management regimen without long-term functional deficits at 1-year follow-up after arthroscopic rotator cuff repair [2].
• 89% of participants considered medical cannabis to be more effective than narcotics for adequate pain management [4].
• No specific guidance in the use of cannabis in perioperative pain management can be suggested based on the association between regular cannabis use and increased opioid usage after total joint arthroplasty [5].
• Cannabis-based medicine did not provide clinical improvement in pain compared with a placebo in patients with traumatic brachial plexus injuries [11].
• A majority of sports medicine surgeons believe that CBD has a role in post-operative and chronic pain management [12].
• More clinical research for cannabinoids is needed to help orthopaedic traumatologists provide guidance for patients seeking advice for this therapeutic [13].
• Patients with documented cannabis dependence demonstrated higher odds of developing wound complications following hand and wrist soft-tissue surgical procedures [16].

What the Evidence Shows

Postoperative Pain Management

• CBD can be considered in a post-operative multimodal pain management regimen without long-term functional deficits at 1-year follow-up after arthroscopic rotator cuff repair [2].
• Buccally absorbed CBD demonstrates an acceptable safety profile and shows significant promise in reducing pain in the immediate peri-operative period following arthroscopic rotator cuff repair compared to control [17].
• Cannabis use does not affect outcomes after total hip arthroplasty [14].
• Further studies are warranted to determine the efficacy and safety of perioperative cannabis use after total hip arthroplasty to help guide orthopaedic surgeons in counseling patients [14].
• Higher-level studies are needed to ascertain the impact of cannabis use for patients undergoing total joint arthroplasty [15].

Neuropathic Pain

• Cannabis-based treatment did not provide clinically important benefit as an adjuvant to standard multimodal drug therapy for neuropathic pain in traumatic brachial plexus injuries [18].
• Findings suggest the applicability of cannabis-based medicines for peripheral neuropathy [3].

Patient and Surgeon Perceptions

• Patients estimated medical cannabis could treat more than half of their spine pain [6].

Practical Considerations

Postoperative Pain Management

• CBD can be considered in a postoperative multimodal pain management regimen without detrimental effects on outcome [1].
• CBD can be considered in a post-operative multimodal pain management regimen without long-term detrimental effects [2].

Patient and Provider Perceptions

• Large numbers of patients with osteoarthritis of the thumb basal joint would be interested in trialing either oral or topical formulations of medical cannabis for treatment of their thumb basal joint pain [8].

Clinical Guidance and Research Needs

• No specific guidance in the use of cannabis in perioperative pain management can be suggested based on the association between regular cannabis use and increased opioid usage in total joint arthroplasty [5].
• More clinical research for cannabinoids is needed to help orthopaedic traumatologists provide guidance for patients seeking advice [13].
