Our presentation of the work «Efficacy of perioperative gabapentin use in patients with idiopathic scoliosis undergoing fusion surgery: A systematic review and meta-analysis» was a great success at this year's BritSpine conference. Held in Glasgow from April 18 to 20, the conference is the most important in spine surgery, and we are proud to have had the opportunity to present our findings to such a distinguished audience.
Our presentation focused on the efficacy of perioperative gabapentin use in patients with idiopathic scoliosis undergoing fusion surgery. Through a systematic review and meta-analysis, we found a significant reduction in postoperative pain and opioid use in patients who received gabapentin compared to those who did not.
We are delighted to have shared our findings with the medical community at BritSpine and hope that our results will contribute to improving the care and treatment of patients with idiopathic scoliosis undergoing fusion surgery.
Thank you to everyone who supported us on our journey to BritSpine!
