About this study

Official title: The Effect of Preemptive Oral Pregabalin As an Element of Multimodal Analgesia in Patients Undergoing Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy. a Randomized, Prospective, Double Blind Study.

The aim of this clinical trial is to assess preemptive oral pregabalin administration in the obese patients undergoing laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy. The main aims of the study are to evaluate postoperative pain treatment and effect on the intraoperative hemodynamical stability.

The participants will be divided into 2 groups: with or without preemptive pregabalin administration.

Read the detailed description

Pregabalin is a GABA analogue that has analgesic, anxiolytic and effects. There are studies indicating that this drug can be used as an element of multimodal analgesia to decrease opioid requirements in postoperative period. Such an effect would be particularly beneficial for patients with obesity scheduled for laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy, most commonly performed bariatric surgery.

The investigators hypothesized that preemptive pregabalin administration may improve quality of postoperative pain score with less incidence of opioid side effects as well as similar or better intraoperative hemodynamical stability.

What is being measured

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

  1. Total postoperative oxycodone consumption

    PCA (Patient's controlled analgesia) iv pump, oxycodone will be administered on patient's demand by 2mg boli, with lock out time 10 minutes

    Measured: Day "0"

  2. Postoperative pain score in NRS scale

    NRS range from 0 for no pain to 10 for worst pain imaginable

    Measured: Day "0", assessed 1 hour after operation

  3. Postoperative pain score in NRS scale

    NRS range from 0 for no pain to 10 for worst pain imaginable

    Measured: Day "0", assessed 6 hour after operation

  4. Postoperative pain score in NRS scale

    NRS range from 0 for no pain to 10 for worst pain imaginable

    Measured: Day "0", assessed 12 hour after operation

  5. Postoperative pain score in NRS scale

    NRS range from 0 for no pain to 10 for worst pain imaginable

    Measured: Day "0", assessed 24 hour after operation

Secondary outcomes (11)
  1. Postoperative sedation score

    1-6 Ramsay sedation score; 1 - agitated or restless 6 - unresponsive

    Measured: Day "0", assessed 1,6,12 and 24 hours after operation

  2. Postoperative nausea and vomiting

    Simplified PONV impact scale 0-6 0 - no nausea nor vomiting 6 - >3 episodes of vomiting and nausea all of the time

    Measured: Day "0", assessed 1,6,12 and 24 hours after operation

  3. Highest BP

    Highest BP during operation

    Measured: intraoperative

  4. Lowest BP

    Lowest BP during operation

    Measured: intraoperative

  5. Highest HR

    Highest HR during operation

    Measured: intraoperative

  6. Lowest HR

    Lowest HR during operation

    Measured: intraoperative

  7. Total ephedrine dosis

    Ephedrine is a vasopressor used in case of hypotension to maintain mean arterial pressure > 65 mmHg or to increase blood pressure to check surgical hemostasis

    Measured: intraoperative

  8. Postoperative desaturation

    SpO2 < 94%

    Measured: Day "0", assessed 1,6,12 and 24 hours after operation

  9. Blurred vision

    Presence of blurred or abnormal vision

    Measured: Day "0", assessed 1,6,12 and 24 hours after operation

  10. Patient's comfort assessed in QoR-40 formulary

    QoR-40 (Quality of Recovery) scale is used to measure the quality of recovery after surgery and anesthesia, it is a 40 item questionnaire that provides a score across five dimensions: patient support, comfort, emotions, physical independence, and pain. Formulary will assess first 24 hours following the operation. Maximal score is 200, higher result is associated with better quality of recovery.

    Measured: Day "0", assessed 24 hours after operation

  11. Postoperative oxycodone consumption

    PCA (Patient's controlled analgesia) iv pump, oxycodone will be administered on patient's demand by 2mg boli, with lock out time 10 minutes

    Measured: Day "0", assessed 1,6,12 and 24 hours after operation
