BACKGROUND: The utilization of intrathecal opioids is an efficacious component of post-cesarean section pain management. Given that growing evidence indicates that calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) plays a key role in the development of peripheral sensitization and is associated with enhanced pain, we hypothesized that CGRP 4218T/C polymorphism is associated with the variability in fentanyl consumption for post-cesarean analgesia. METHODS: We recruited 548 patients who presented for elective cesarean delivery, and used polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) method to analyze CGRP 4218T/C polymorphism. We examined the association of CGRP 4218T/C polymorphism and post-operative fentanyl consumption for analgesia as well as adverse reactions to fentanyl in those patients who received cesarean section surgeries. RESULTS: We found that the CGRP 4218T/C polymorphism has a significant effect on pain perception, analgesic requirement, and nausea and vomiting for the first 24 h after cesarean delivery in patients who received PCEA fentanyl. Individuals with the C/C genotype had more pain, required more PCEA fentanyl, and experienced a lower incidence of nausea and vomiting. CONCLUSION: These results indicated that patients with C/C genotype may have reduced sensitivity to fentanyl analgesia and/or increased pain perception, and were more willing to use PCEA fentanyl to manage their pain.
