What is patient-controlled analgesia?
Patient-controlled analgesia (PCA) is a method of pain management that allows patients to self-administer pain medication at controlled intervals through a programmable pump. The patient can press a button to deliver a prescribed dose of medication, usually opioids, when they experience pain. PCA provides better pain control, reduces the need for repeated injections, and allows patients to participate in their pain management.
