Abstract
Gout arthritis commonly affects joint regions by deposition of crystals, promoting functional damage mainly during periods of exacerbation. Cryotherapy is a commonly used resource to contain inflammatory processes, however, its use during a gout crisis is not yet well understood. Therefore, the objective was to evaluate the parameters of Wistar rats submitted to an experimental gout model and treated with dual cryotherapy protocol. Twenty-one male Wistar rats were used, separated into three groups: control group (CG), lesion group (LG), and lesion + cryotherapy group (LCG). Gout model induction was through intra-articular injection, with urate crystal solution, in the right knee and cryoimmersion treatment was performed for 20 minutes at a temperature of 5° ± 2°C. Seven evaluations and two treatment moments were performed, and the following parameters were analyzed: joint edema, grip strength, joint disability, motor function, and leukocyte migration through synovial lavage. In the statistical analysis we used SPSS 20.0 with Generalized Linear Models, with least significant difference posttest, always with 5% significance level. The treatment reduced edema, promoted strength recovery, and was effective in reducing total leukocytes in the synovial fluid. No difference was observed between the injured groups for joint disability and motor function. Cryotherapy promoted edema reduction and increased pelvic limb grip strength in Wistar rats during the acute period.

Abstract
This is the fourth Capsule review article provided by the WSAVA Global Pain Council and which discusses the use of ice or cold therapy as a non-pharmacologic modality for pain control in small animal practice. The physiological effects of cold therapy on tissues, receptors and ion channels are discussed; as well as indications, recommendations for, and limitations of use.

Clarke HA, Manoo V, Pearsall EA, Goel A, Feinberg A, Weinrib A, Chiu JC, Shah B, Ladak SSJ, Ward S, Srikandarajah S, Brar SS, McLeod RS. Consensus Statement for the Prescription of Pain Medication at Discharge after Elective Adult Surgery. Can J Pain 2020; 4:67-85. [PMID: 33987487 PMCID: PMC7951150 DOI: 10.1080/24740527.2020.1724775] [Citation(s) in RCA: 19] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/22/2019] [Revised: 01/30/2020] [Accepted: 01/30/2020] [Indexed: 12/12/2022]
Abstract
This Consensus Statement provides recommendations on the prescription of pain medication at discharge from hospital for opioid-naïve adult patients who undergo elective surgery. It encourages health care providers (surgeons, anesthesiologists, nurses/nurse practitioners, pain teams, pharmacists, allied health professionals, and trainees) to (1) use nonopioid therapies and reduce the prescription of opioids so that fewer opioid pills are available for diversion and (2) educate patients and their families/caregivers about pain management options after surgery to optimize quality of care for postoperative pain. These recommendations apply to opioid-naïve adult patients who undergo elective surgery. This consensus statement is intended for use by health care providers involved in the management and care of surgical patients. A modified Delphi process was used to reach consensus on the recommendations. First, the authors conducted a scoping review of the literature to determine current best practices and existing guidelines. From the available literature and expertise of the authors, a draft list of recommendations was created. Second, the authors asked key stakeholders to review and provide feedback on several drafts of the document and attend an in-person consensus meeting. The modified Delphi stakeholder group included surgeons, anesthesiologists, residents, fellows, nurses, pharmacists, and patients. After multiple iterations, the document was deemed complete. The recommendations are not graded because they are mostly based on consensus rather than evidence.
