A comparison of opioid-containing anesthesia versus opioid-free anesthesia using the Cortinez-Sepulveda model on differential cytokine responses in obese patients undergoing gastric bypass surgery: a randomized controlled trial.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Opioid anesthetic agents can modulate the impaired immune response in obese patients through mechanisms that involve the expression and release of cytokines. For this reason, anesthetic care for obese patients remains controversial. Therefore, the aim of the study was to compare the effect of opioid-containing anesthesia (OCA) vs opioid-free anesthesia (OFA) using the Cortínez-Sepúlveda model on IL-6, IL-1β and TNF-α serum levels before and after surgery in obese patients undergoing bypass surgery.

Methods

This randomized cross-sectional study conducted among 40 unrelated obese adults was performed in the Civil Hospital of Guadalajara "Dr. Juan I. Menchaca". Before undergoing laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass, patients were randomly assigned to two anesthesia
