Analgesic effects and adverse reactions were compared. Results There was no significant difference in visual analogue scale 4 h,6 h,8 h and 12 h after operation between the two groups(P ﹥ 0. 05). There was significant difference in adverse reactions be-tween the two groups(P ﹤ 0. 01). Nausea,emesis,pruritus and cognitive dysfunction occurred in morphine group.
