There is interest in the use of methocarbamol as an adjunctive agent for pain control after traumatic injury. The primary objective of this study was to determine the effect of methocarbamol on pain measurements after acute injury. This was a retrospective, matched cohort study conducted at an academic medical center in the United States. Consecutive adult (age ≥18 years) patients who were admitted to the hospital between June 1, 2012 and June 30, 2013 because of a traumatic injury were…

This review focuses on the treatment of pain in the setting of acute injury and on pain management in trauma patients who go on to develop chronic pain, with emphasis on pharmacologic interventions, invasive and noninvasive pain management techniques, analgesia in challenging patients, and pain control in commonly encountered trauma conditions.

ICISS is a much better predictor of survival than ISS in injured patients and the use of the ICD-9 lexicon may avoid the need for AIS coding, and thus add an economic incentive to the statistical appeal of ICISS.

Anticonvulsant studies carried out with these drugs indicate that chlorzoxazone possesses potent anti-strychnine activity while having virtually no protective action against pentylenetetrazol and meprobamate, which suggests that chlorZoxazolamine may act principally at spinal levels and meProbamate at supraspinal levels.
