Abstract
It has been demonstrated that intranasal opioid titration has a rapid onset of action and can provide satisfactory management of postoperative pain [10, 12, 14]. In these studies the intranasal titration was carried out by the investigator. Self-administration of an opioid intranasally by patients requires a spray bottle with safety precautions of an equivalent standard to those offered by an intravenous PCA device. We describe a device for patient-controlled intranasal analgesia (PCINA) that meets these safety requirements.
