Article Synopsis
  • Fast-tracking in surgery helps reduce recovery time and complications by improving pain management and minimizing stress during and after procedures.

  • Results showed that the SAPB group experienced significantly lower pain levels and cortisol (stress hormone) levels, along with more stable vital signs compared to the fentanyl group, indicating it was a more effective pain management strategy.
