Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: The analgesic efficacy of opioids is well known to vary widely among individuals, and various factors related to individual differences in opioid sensitivity have been identified.

The present study sought to construct prediction formulas for individual opioid analgesic requirements based on...
