Comparative Study Between Early versus Late Intraperitoneal Administration of Either Bupivacaine/Tramadol or Bupivacaine/Dexmedetomidine for Perioperative Analgesia in Abdominal Laparoscopic Cancer Surgeries: A Prospective Randomized Study.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

Several modalities for analgesia after laparoscopic procedures have been used. This study aimed to investigate the efficacy of early versus late bupivacaine/tramadol combination and bupivacaine/dexmedetomidine combination in analgesia for laparoscopic cancer surgeries.

Methods

A total of 100 patients of both genders scheduled for elective laparoscopic cancer surgeries were included. Patients were randomly assigned to one of four groups each comprises 25 patients. Group 1: early bupivacaine/tramadol, Group 2: late bupivacaine/tramadol, Group 3: early bupivacaine/dexmedetomidine, and Group 4: late bupivacaine/dexmedetomidine. Early groups received the intraperitoneal instillation before start of surgery and late groups received the instillation after completion of surgery. Perioperative heart rate (HR) and mean arterial blood pressure (MAP) were recorded. The degree of postoperative pain was measured at rest and with cough using Visual analogue scale (VAS) score at 2, 4, 6, 12, 18 and 24 h after surgery. In addition, the total intraoperative fentanyl and postoperative morphine doses were calculated.

Results

Both late bupivacaine/tramadol, bupivacaine/dexmedetomidine groups had longer time to receive first analgesic requirement (13.4±3.9, 11.3±3.9 h) respectively as compared to early bupivacaine/tramadol, bupivacaine/dexmedetomidine groups (9.8± 3.6, 8.4± 2.8 h), respectively. Between each early and late group, intraoperative fentanyl consumption was higher for the late groups (75± 22.8, 73± 21.55µg) versus (32.7± 10.9, 37.5± 13.3 µg), respectively. As regards to rescue analgesic requirements, both early bupivacaine/tramadol and bupivacaine/dexmedetomidine groups consumed more analgesics (5.2± 2.0 and 6.1± 1.8 mg) as compared to the late groups (3.2± 0.8 and 4.3± 1.5 mg), respectively. The four groups were comparable for their perioperative HR and MAP values.

Conclusion

Intraperitoneal instillation of bupivacaine/tramadol and bupivacaine/dexmedetomidine could be considered an effective route for analgesic administration during laparoscopic cancer surgeries. Early instillation reduced the intraoperative opioid consumption and late instillation resulted in reduced postoperative opioid consumption.

Project description:BackgroundAdministration of adjuvant drugs epidurally in combination with local anesthetics offers new dimensions in the management of postoperative pain. This study aimed to compare the addition of either nalbuphine or dexmedetomidine to epidural bupivacaine for postoperative analgesia in lower limb orthopedic surgeries under combined spinal-epidural anesthesia.MethodsThis prospective randomized double-blind study included 69 patients scheduled for lower limb orthopedic surgeries. Anesthesia was started with 15 mg hyperbaric bupivacaine 0.5% intrathecally, and then an epidural bolus dose of 12 ml (10 ml 0.25% bupivacaine with 2 ml normal saline in group C, 2 ml (10 mg) nalbuphine in group N or dexmedetomidine 2 ml (100 µg) in group D was administered when sensory regression to T10. Postoperatively, when visual analogue scale (VAS) was ≥ 3, an epidural top-up dose of 8 ml (6 ml 0.25% bupivacaine plus 2 ml normal saline in group C, 2 ml (2 mg) nalbuphine in group N or 20 µg dexmedetomidine (2 ml) in group D was given. The primary outcome was to evaluate the duration of postoperative analgesia and secondary outcomes were any side effects and patient satisfaction.ResultsThe onset of epidural analgesia was 17.83 ± 2.53 versus 13.39 ± 1.27 versus 12.17 ± 1.27 min in groups C, N and D, respectively (p value < 0.001). The mean duration of analgesia was 241.3 ± 14.24 versus 318.38 ± 22.54 versus 365.87 ± 18.01 min in groups C, N and D, respectively (p value < 0.001). The mean sedation score was less in group C than group N and D (P < 0.001). The patient satisfaction score showed the lowest degree of satisfaction in group C (p value < 0.001). Top-up doses consumed and total analgesic requirements were lower in groups N and D than in group C. There was a statistically significant difference between the studied groups regarding VAS over time (p value < 0.001), intraoperative bradycardia (p value 0.029), and shivering (p value 0.029).ConclusionThe addition of either nalbuphine or dexmedetomidine to epidural bupivacaine was effective for postoperative analgesia in terms of onset, duration, and patient satisfaction with the superiority of dexmedetomidine over nalbuphine.Trial registrationApproval from the research ethics committee of the Faculty of Medicine, Zagazig University was obtained with the reference number (ZU-IRB#:7045-15-8-2021) and it was registered under clinicaltrials.gov (NCT05041270) on registration date 13/09/2021.

Project description:BackgroundAs posterior lumbosacral spine fixation surgeries are common spine procedures done nowadays due to different causes and mostly accompanied with moderate-to-severe postoperative pain, so should find effective postoperative analgesia for these patients. This study aimed to observe analgesic effect of dexmedetomidine combined with bupivacaine versus bupivacaine alone for erector spinae plane block ESPB for postoperative pain control of posterior lumbosacral spine fixation surgeries.MethodsDouble-blind randomized controlled study including 90 patients who were randomly allocated into 3 groups (30 patients for each): Dexmedetomidine combined with bupivacaine (DB group), bupivacaine (B group), and saline (control) (S group). US-guided ESPB was performed preoperatively bilaterally in all patients of the 3 groups. All patients received intravenous patient-controlled postoperative analgesia with morphine and 1 gm intravenous paracetamol every 8 hours. Primary clinical outcomes were active (while mobilization) and passive (at rest) visual analog scale (VAS) pain score at first 24 hours measured every 2 hours, opioid consumption (number of PCA presses), and need for rescue analgesia. Other clinical outcomes included active and passive VAS pain score at second 24 hours, measured every 4 hours, opioid consumption, need for rescue analgesia, postoperative opioid side effects, and intraoperative dexmedetomidine side effects as bradycardia and hypotension.ResultsActive and passive VAS pain scores, postoperative opioid consumption, need for rescue analgesia, and postoperative opioid side effects were significantly lower in DB group when compared to other groups (B and S groups). There were no additional intraoperative dexmedetomidine side effects as bradycardia and hypotension. The estimated effect-size r was -0.58 and Cohen's d was -1.46.ConclusionAddition of dexmedetomidine to bupivacaine 0.25% in ESPB for postoperative pain control in patients of posterior lumbosacral spine fixation surgeries resulted in lower active and passive VAS pain scores, decreased postoperative opioid consumption, need for rescue analgesia and postoperative opioid side effects without additional intraoperative dexmedetomidine side effects.Clinicaltrialsgov identifierNCT05590234.
