OBJECTIVE.: DESIGN.: SETTING.: PATIENTS.: INTERVENTIONS.: OUTCOME MEASURES.: RESULTS.: As compared with the CYP2D6-EM phenotype, in the early PO time (30 min) a higher RSS mean score in IM was observed (P = 0.035). A suggestion towards higher mean score in PM (P = 0.091) and a minor mean score in UM (P = 0.091) was also detected. No difference in the outcome of pain across the CYP2D6 phenotypes was observed. CONCLUSIONS.
