Trial design

CTIS Part I — objectives, methods, condition coding

Main objective

Scope: Pharmacodynamic, Pharmacogenetic, Pharmacokinetic

It is expected that the trial will produce important knowledge on the safety and efficacy of morphine for perioperative pain, which will be beneficial for future surgical patients, in particular for bariatric patients suffering from obstructive sleep apnoea subjected to bariatric surgery.

Furthermore, we aim to gain from new insights and understanding of the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of morphine – which to this day is a first line drug when acute pain-relief is needed. We aim to further our knowledge and understanding of a more personalized approach to the treatment of acute peri- and postoperative pain, i.e. delivering sufficient pain-relief with an absolute minimum of side effects.
