Summary
The aim of the study is to show a decrease in postoperative pain during the first
postoperative mobilization surgery lumbar disc herniation through a co-analgesia with a
single dose of dexamethasone, pregabalin, or a combination of these two products.
Pain assessed by simple numerical scale will be also evaluated during the 48 first
post-operative hours.
Determining an optimal co-analgesic protocol through the results of this study could help
develop validation studies with larger scale such as a medico-economic component. In
addition, these study protocols are easy to apply (ponctual administration) and inexpensive.
