Analgesic Efficacy of Intraoperative Superior Hypogastric Plexus (SHP) Block during Abdominal Hysterectomy: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of Controlled Trials.

ABSTRACT: Background and Objectives: Abdominal hysterectomy is a major surgery that is often associated with pronounced postsurgical pain. The objective of this research is to conduct a systematic review and meta-analysis of all randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and nonrandomized comparative trials (NCTs) that have surveyed the analgesic benefits and morbidity of intraoperative superior hypogastric plexus (SHP) block (intervention) compared with no SHP block (control) during abdominal hysterectomy. Materials and Methods: The Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (CENTRAL), Google Scholar, Web of Science, PubMed, Scopus, and Embase were searched from inception until 8 May 2022. The Cochrane Collaboration tool and Newcastle-Ottawa Scale were used to evaluate the risk of bias of RCTs and NCTs, respectively. In a random effects mode, the data were pooled as risk ratio (RR) or mean difference (MD) with 95% confidence interval (CI). Results: Five studies (four RCTs and one NCT) comprising 210 patients (SHP block = 107 and control = 103) were analyzed. The overall postsurgical pain score (n = 5 studies, MD = -1.08, 95% CI [-1.41, -0.75], p < 0.001), postsurgical opioid consumption (n = 4 studies, MD = -18.90 morphine milligram equivalent, 95% CI, [-22.19, -15.61], p < 0.001), and mean time to mobilization (n = 2 studies, MD = -1.33 h, 95% CI [-1.98, -0.68], p < 0.001) were significantly decreased in the SHP block group contrasted with the control arm. Nevertheless, there was no significant variance between both arms regarding operation time, intraoperative blood loss, postsurgical NSAID consumption, and hospital stay. There were no major side effects or sympathetic block-related aftermaths in both groups. Conclusions: During abdominal hysterectomy and receiving perioperative multimodal analgesia, the administration of intraoperative SHP block is largely safe and exhibits better analgesic effects compared to cases without administration of SHP block.

Project description:BackgroundExperimental models using short-duration noxious stimuli have led to the concept of preemptive analgesia. Ketorolac, a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug, has been shown to have a postoperative narcotic-sparing effect when given preoperatively and alternatively to not have this effect. This study was undertaken to determine whether a single intravenous (IV) dose of ketorolac would result in decreased postoperative pain and narcotic requirements.MethodsIn a double-blind, randomized controlled trial, 48 women undergoing abdominal hysterectomy were studied. Patients in the ketorolac group received 30 mg of IV ketorolac 30 min before surgical incision, while the control group received normal saline. The postoperative analgesia was performed with a continuous infusion of tramadol at 12 mg/h with the possibility of a 10 mg bolus for every 10 min. Pain was assessed using the visual analog scale (VAS), tramadol consumption, and hemodynamic parameters at 0, 1, 2, 4, 8, 12, 16, and 24 h postoperatively. We quantified times to rescue analgesic (morphine), adverse effects, and patient satisfaction.ResultsThere were neither significant differences in VAS scores between groups (P > 0.05) nor in the cumulative or incremental consumption of tramadol at any time point (P > 0.05). The time to first requested rescue analgesia was 66.25 ± 38.61 min in the ketorolac group and 65 ± 28.86 min in the control group (P = 0.765). There were no significant differences in systolic blood pressure (BP) between both groups, except at 2 h (P = 0.02) and 4 h (P = 0.045). There were no significant differences in diastolic BP between both groups, except at 4 h (P = 0.013). The respiratory rate showed no differences between groups, except at 8 h (P = 0.017), 16 h (P = 0.011), and 24 h (P = 0.049). These differences were not clinically significant. There were no statistically significant differences between groups in heart rate (P > 0.05).ConclusionsPreoperative ketorolac neither showed a preemptive analgesic effect nor was it effective as an adjuvant for decreasing opioid requirements or postoperative pain in patients receiving IV analgesia with tramadol after abdominal hysterectomy.

Project description:BackgroundPain is a major challenge in performing ultrasound-guided percutaneous microwave ablation (PMWA) of uterine myomas. Inadequate analgesia by local anesthetics hinders the possibility of conducting PMWA of uterine myomas in the Ambulatory Surgery Center (ASC) of the Department of Ultrasound.ObjectiveThe superior hypogastric plexus (SHP) forms a suitable target for pain relief through the blockade, as it contains nociceptive afferent fibers from pelvic organs such as the uterus, rectum, and bladder. Superior hypogastric plexus block (SHPB) has demonstrated promise as an alternative treatment option for alleviating pelvic pain, reducing opioid consumption, and improving quality of life. This study aims to evaluate the efficacy of ultrasound-guided SHPB combined with conscious sedation as an alternative anesthesia option for ambulatory patients receiving ultrasound-guided PMWA of uterine myomas.Methods and analysisThis randomized controlled trial (RCT) will be carried out at the Department of Ultrasound, The First Affiliated Hospital of Xiamen University. Women scheduled for ultrasound-guided PMWA of uterine myomas will be eligible. 86 patients will be recruited and randomly assigned to either the intervention or control groups in a 1:1 ratio. The intervention group will undergo ultrasound-guided superior hypogastric plexus block (SHPB) combined with conscious sedation, while the control group will receive local anesthesia combined with conscious sedation. The primary outcome is the success rate of anesthesia, secondary outcomes include vasoactive drug consumption, acetaminophen consumption, sleep quality, sonographer satisfaction score, patient satisfaction score, the detained time in hospital, and adverse events.DiscussionsThis RCT represents the inaugural effort to specifically evaluate the safety and efficacy of ultrasound-guided SHPB combined with conscious sedation in patients undergoing ultrasound-guided PMWA of uterine myomas and will provide valuable evidence and insight into the analgesic management of this ambulatory surgery.Ethics and disseminationThis study has been approved by the Ethics Committee of the First Affiliated Hospital of Xiamen University (Scientific Research Ethics Review 2023, No. 139). The results will be submitted for publication in peer-reviewed journals.
