About this study

Official title: Comparison of Lidocaine, Dexmedetomidine and Ketamine in Multimodal Analgesia Management Following Sleeve Gastrectomy Surgery: A Randomized Double-Blind Trial

Following laparoscopic bariatric surgery, multimodal analgesia is recommended to avoid the adverse effects of opioids by reducing their use. Although lidocaine, ketamine, and dexmedetomidine have been used as adjuvant analgesics, no studies have evaluated the superiority of their intra- and postoperative infusions as components of multimodal analgesia in bariatric surgery. The present study is aimed to compare lidocaine, dexmedetomidine, and ketamine in multimodal analgesia management following Sleeve Gastrectomy Surgery. Postoperative pain scores, the requirement for additional postoperative analgesia, retching, nausea and vomiting, time to mobilization, and hospital length of stay will be evaluated.

Read the detailed description

Patients will be divided into three groups.

Group L: The patients will receive intravenous lidocaine (2 mg/kg/h) immediately after anesthesia induction. At the end of the surgery, the dose will be decreased to 1 mg/kg/h. The infusion will continue until 12 hours after the operation.

Group K: The patients will receive intravenous ketamine (0.5 mg/kg/h) immediately after anesthesia induction. At the end of the surgery, the dose will be decreased to 0.3 mg/kg/h. The infusion will continue until 12 hours after the operation.

Group D: The patients will receive intravenous dexmedetomidine (0.5 mg/kg/h) immediately after anesthesia induction. At the end of the surgery, the dose will be decreased to 0.3 mg/kg/h. The infusion will continue until 12 hours after the operation.

Ketamine, lidocaine, and dexmedetomidine doses will be calculated according to ideal body weight, lean body weight, and actual body weight, respectively.

Randomization will be performed using a computer-generated random number list, and a statement indicating the patient's group will be placed in a closed envelope numbered according to the result. Each patient will be asked to choose an envelope, and the patients will be assigned to the study according to the group mentioned in the envelope.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • LidocainDrug

    IV lidocaine infusion (2 mg/kg/h) will be initiated after anesthesia induction and decrease the dosage to 1 mg/kg/h at the end of surgery.

Granisetron (3 mg) will be administered 30 minutes before the end of surgery. In the postoperative period, i.v. Paracetamol will be administered at 8-hour intervals and 25-50 mg meperidine i.m. (maximum dose 200 mg) as rescue analgesia when requested by the patient and if VAS>4.

  • KetamineDrug

    IV ketamine infusion (0.5 mg/kg/h) will be initiated after anesthesia induction and decrease the dosage to 0.3 mg/kg/h at the end of surgery.

Granisetron (3 mg) will be administered 30 minutes before the end of surgery. In the postoperative period, i.v. Paracetamol will be administered at 8-hour intervals and 25-50 mg meperidine i.m. (maximum dose 200 mg) as rescue analgesia when requested by the patient and if VAS>4.

  • DexmedetomidineDrug

    IV dexmedetomidine infusion (0.5 mg/kg/h) will be initiated after anesthesia induction and decrease the dosage to 0.3 mg/kg/h at the end of surgery. The infusion will continue until 12 hours after the operation.1 g paracetamol, 100 mg tramadol, 100 mg ketoprofen, and 4 mg dexamethasone will be administered to all patients pre-emptively. Granisetron (3 mg) will be administered 30 minutes before the end of surgery. In the postoperative period, i.v. Paracetamol will be administered at 8-hour intervals and 25-50 mg meperidine i.m. (maximum dose 200 mg) as rescue analgesia when requested by the patient and if VAS>4.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Postoperative pain: VAS scores at rest and movement

    Pain status at rest and movement will be assessed by VAS scores. The Visual Analog Scale (VAS) is a 10 cm line with anchor statements on the left (no pain) and on the right (worst pain imaginable).

    Measured: Up to 15 days after the surgery.

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Postoperative Rescue Analgesic Requirement

    After the end of surgery 25-50 mg meperidine (maximum dose 200 mg) will be administered i.m. as rescue analgesia when requested by the patient and if VAS>4. the Rescue analgesic dosage will be recorded.

    Measured: Up to three days after surgery

  2. Postoperative nausea, retching and vomiting

    The number of patients who has complained of nausea, retching and vomiting will be recorded.

    Measured: Up to 3 days after surgery.

  3. Time to first mobilization

    The patients first mobilization time after the operation will be recorded.

    Measured: Up to 24 hours after surgery.

  4. Time to discharge

    The length of hospital stay will be recorded.

    Measured: Trough hospital stay, an average of 1 week.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Postoperative pain: VAS scores at rest and movement (time frame: Up to 15 days after the surgery.). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
