Abstract

The article focuses on exploring genetic polymorphisms as potential contributors to severe postoperative pain. Topics include the use of pharmacogenetics in pain therapy to predict individual analgesic response, the impact of genetic variants on opioid metabolism, and the influence of genetic polymorphisms on the effectiveness of analgesics in specific patient populations, such as those with red hair.
