Brief summary: This study is a single-dose, open-label, 2-cycle crossover design, comparing the pharmacokinetic parameters and safety of Inhaled Fentanyl Aerosol and intravenous fentanyl injection.

Detailed description: Consenting patients who met inclusion and exclusion criteria were allowed to enter the study. The subjects will be randomly assigned (1:1) to receive an intravenous bolus (5 seconds) of 25μg fentanyl injection in the first cycle, and after a 2-week washout period, to receive a single dose of 25μg inhaled fentanyl aerosol through the Staccato delivery system in the second cycle; or to receive the same treatment in the opposite order.
