NAVARRO SUAY, R. et al. Lessons from the battlefield: use of oral transmucosal fentanyl in a soldier, a case report. Rev. Soc. Esp. Dolor [online]. 2015, vol.22, n.2, pp.69-72. ISSN 1134-8046. https://dx.doi.org/10.4321/S1134-80462015000200005.
The improvements that have been progressively introduced in the treatment of pain in the battlefield have included increased training, research, availability of drugs and the most current techniques. One of analgesic that has been used first time in Iraq and Afghanistan conflicts has been oral transmucosal fentanyl (FTMO) generating an experience not only applicable in combat, but also in the civil and hospital environment. We describe a report of a soldier, who suffers an accident at work with chest and pelvic trauma requiring FTMO administration to achieve adequate pain control.
