The Effect of Topical Administration of Common Drugs on Postoperative Bleeding and Pain

After surgical procedures, interventions to reduce postoperative pain and bleeding are of great importance. In this study, the effect will be investigated of smearing common drugs, which are designed for injection, directly onto the raw wound surface (topical application) created during surgery. Topical application allows a small amount of drug to reach a large wound area, higher drug concentration in the exposed wound surface but very low concentration in the body, and no risk of injury from needles. Although beneficial effects of such an easy and low-cost intervention would be expected, the investigators have found no previous reports on blinded and controlled studies.
