Abstract
INTRODUCTION Limited non-opioid analgesic options are available for managing postoperative pain after renal transplantation. We aimed to investigate whether the unilateral anterior quadratus lumborum (QL) block would reduce postoperative opioid consumption after living-donor renal transplantation in the context of multimodal analgesia. METHODS Eighty-eight adult patients undergoing living-donor renal transplantation were randomly allocated to receive the unilateral anterior QL block (30 mL of ropivacaine 0.375%) or sham block (normal saline) on the operated side before emergence from anesthesia. All patients received standard multimodal analgesia, including the scheduled administration of acetaminophen and fentanyl via intravenous patient-controlled analgesia. The primary outcome was the total opioid consumption during the first 24 hours after transplantation. The secondary outcomes included pain scores, time to first opioid administration, cutaneous distribution of sensory blockade, motor weakness, nausea/vomiting, quality of recovery scores, time to first ambulation, and length of hospital stay. RESULTS The total opioid consumption in the first 24 hours after transplantation did not differ significantly between the intervention and control groups (median (IQR), 160.5 (78-249.8) vs 187.5 (93-309) oral morphine milligram equivalent; median difference (95% CI), -27 (-78 to 24), p=0.29). No differences were observed in the secondary outcomes. CONCLUSIONS The anterior QL block did not reduce opioid consumption in patients receiving multimodal analgesia after living-donor renal transplantation. Our findings do not support the routine administration of the anterior QL block in this surgical population. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER NCT04908761.

BRAZILIAN JOURNAL OF ANESTHESIOLOGY (ELSEVIER) 2024; 74:844534. [PMID: 38964607 PMCID: PMC11293508 DOI: 10.1016/j.bjane.2024.844534] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/24/2023] [Revised: 05/15/2024] [Accepted: 06/19/2024] [Indexed: 07/06/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Dexmedetomidine, a highly selective alpha-2 adrenoceptor agonist with sedative and analgesic effects, has been suggested in recent studies to possess renoprotective properties. Dexmedetomidine may reduce the incidence of delayed graft function and contribute to effective pain control post-renal transplantation. The primary objective of this systematic review was to assess whether dexmedetomidine decreases the occurrence of delayed graft function in renal transplant patients. METHODS Databases including MEDLINE, EMBASE, and CENTRAL were comprehensively searched from their inception until March 2023. The inclusion criteria covered all Randomized Clinical Trials (RCTs) and observational studies comparing dexmedetomidine to control in adult patients undergoing renal transplant surgery. Exclusions comprised case series and case reports. RESULTS Ten RCTs involving a total of 1358 patients met the eligibility criteria for data synthesis. Compared to the control group, the dexmedetomidine group demonstrated a significantly lower incidence of delayed graft function (OR = 0.71, 95% CI 0.52-0.97, p = 0.03, GRADE: Very low, I2 = 0%). Dexmedetomidine also significantly prolonged time to initiation of rescue analgesia (MD = 6.73, 95% CI 2.32-11.14, p = 0.003, GRADE: Very low, I2 = 93%) and reduced overall morphine consumption after renal transplant (MD = -5.43, 95% CI -7.95 to -2.91, p < 0.0001, GRADE: Very low, I2 = 0%). The dexmedetomidine group exhibited a significant decrease in heart rate (MD = -8.15, 95% CI -11.45 to -4.86, p < 0.00001, GRADE: Very low, I2 = 84%) and mean arterial pressure compared to the control group (MD = -6.66, 95% CI -11.27 to -2.04, p = 0.005, GRADE: Very low, I2 = 87%). CONCLUSIONS This meta-analysis suggests that dexmedetomidine may potentially reduce the incidence of delayed graft function and offers a superior analgesia profile as compared to control in adults undergoing renal transplants. However, the high degree of heterogeneity and inadequate sample size underscore the need for future adequately powered trials to confirm these findings.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Whether dexmedetomidine (DEX), an anesthetic adjuvant, can improve renal transplant outcomes is not clear. METHODS We systematically identified clinical trials in which DEX was administered in renal transplantation (RT). On November 1, 2022, we searched The Cochrane Library, MEDLINE, EMBASE and https://www. CLINICALTRIALS gov/. The main outcomes were delayed graft function and acute rejection. RESULTS A total of seven studies were included in the meta-analysis. The results showed that compared with the control, DEX significantly reduced the occurrence of delayed graft function (RR 0.76; 95% CI 0.60-0.98), short-term serum creatinine [postoperative day (POD) 2: (MD -22.82; 95% CI -42.01 - -3.64)] and blood urea nitrogen [POD 2: (MD -2.90; 95% CI -5.10 - -0.70); POD 3: (MD 2.07; 95% CI -4.12 - -0.02)] levels, postoperative morphine consumption (MD -4.27; 95% CI -5.92 - -2.61) and the length of hospital stay (MD -0.85; 95% CI-1.47 - -0.23). However, DEX did not reduce the risk of postoperative acute rejection (RR 0.75; 95% CI 0.45-1.23). The results of the subgroup analysis showed that country type, donor type, and average age had a certain impact on the role of DEX. CONCLUSIONS DEX may improve the short-term clinical outcome of RT and shorten the length of hospital stay of patients.

Abstract
Background The combination of different anesthesia techniques or adjuvant drugs can relieve the stress response to surgery, reduce adverse reactions and improve the clinical outcome. We investigated the effects of subcostal anterior quadratus lumborum block (SQLB) with and without dexmedetomidine (DEX) on postoperative rehabilitation for laparoscopic renal surgery (LRS). Methods We included 90 patients in this single-center study. All were scheduled for elective laparoscopic radical or partial nephrectomy under general anesthesia (GA). We randomly and evenly assigned them to three groups: Group GA (GA alone), Group QG (SQLB with 30 mL of 0.25% ropivacaine and GA), and Group DQG (SQLB with 30 mL of 0.25% ropivacaine plus 1 μg/kg DEX and GA). The primary outcomes were serum creatinine (Cr) and blood urea nitrogen (BUN) levels; the secondary outcomes included the average numeric rating scale (NRS) scores at rest and during activity within 48 h postoperatively; perioperative opioid consumption; the time to first ambulation, exhaust, and fluid intake, and postoperative adverse reactions. Results The serum Cr and BUN levels in Group DQG decreased significantly compared with Group GA (P < 0.05). The average NRS scores in Group DQG were significantly lower than other two groups (P < 0.05). Furthermore, the indexes reduced significantly in Group QG compared with Group GA (P < 0.05). Groups DQG and QG had lower consumption of opioid compared with Group GA (P < 0.05). The recovery indicators in Groups DQG and QG were higher quality than Group GA (P < 0.05). The incidences of adverse reactions in Group DQG was significantly lower than the other groups (P < 0.05). Conclusion SQLB with and without DEX could attenuate postoperative pain, reduce opioids requirement and side effects, as well as facilitate postoperative early rehabilitation. More interesting, SQLB with DEX could confer kidney protection. Clinical Trial Registration Number The Chinese Clinical Trial Registry (ChiCTR2200061554).

Trials 2023; 24:392. [PMID: 37308994 DOI: 10.1186/s13063-023-07292-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/07/2022] [Accepted: 04/03/2023] [Indexed: 06/14/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Dexmedetomidine, a potent and highly selective α2-adrenoreceptor agonist has become a popular adjuvant to local anesthetics. The study was designed to explore the effect of dexmedetomidine added to ropivacaine for interscalene brachial plexus block (IBPB) on postoperative analgesia in patients undergoing arthroscopic shoulder surgery. METHODS Forty-four adult patients undergoing arthroscopic shoulder surgery were randomly divided into 2 groups. Group R received 0.25% ropivacaine alone, whereas group RD received 0.25% ropivacaine and 0.5 μg/kg dexmedetomidine. A total volume of 15 ml was administered for ultrasound-guided IBPB in both groups. Duration of analgesia, visual analog scale (VAS) pain score, frequency of PCA pressed, first time of PCA pressed, sufentanil consumption, and patient satisfaction with analgesia quality were recorded. RESULTS Compared with group R, the duration of analgesia was prolonged (8.25±1.76 vs. 11.55±2.41 h; P<0.05), the VAS pain scores were decreased at 8 and 10 h postoperatively (3 (2-3) vs. 0 (0-0) and 2 (2-3) vs. 0 (0-2.25), respectively; P<0.05), the frequencies of PCA pressed were decreased at 4-8 and 8-12 h time intervals (0 (0-0.25) vs. 0 (0-0) and 5 (1.75-6) vs. 0 (0-2), respectively; P<0.05), the time of first PCA pressed was prolonged (9.27±1.85 vs. 12.98±2.35 h; P<0.05), the total 24h sufentanil consumption was reduced (108.72±15.92 vs. 94.65±12.47 μg; P<0.05 ) and patient satisfaction score was also improved (3 (3-4) vs. 4 (4-5); P<0.05) in group RD. CONCLUSION We concluded that adding 0.5 μg/kg dexmedetomidine to 0.25% ropivacaine for IBPB provided better postoperative analgesia, decreased the sufentanil consumption and improved the patient's satisfaction in patients undergoing arthroscopic shoulder surgery.

Abstract
Peripheral nerve block technology is important to balanced anesthesia technology. It can effectively reduce opioid usage. It is the key to enhance clinical rehabilitation as an important part of the multimodal analgesia scheme. The emergence of ultrasound technology has accelerated peripheral nerve block technology development. It can directly observe the nerve shape, surrounding tissue, and diffusion path of drugs. It can also reduce the dosage of local anesthetics by improving positioning accuracy while enhancing the block's efficacy. Dexmedetomidine is a highly selective drug α2-adrenergic receptor agonist. Dexmedetomidine has the characteristics of sedation, analgesia, anti-anxiety, inhibition of sympathetic activity, mild respiratory inhibition, and stable hemodynamics. Numerous studies have revealed that dexmedetomidine in peripheral nerve blocks can shorten the onset time of anesthesia and prolong the time of sensory and motor nerve blocks. Although dexmedetomidine was approved by the European Drug Administration for sedation and analgesia in 2017, it has not yet been approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA). It is used as a non-label drug as an adjuvant. Therefore, the risk-benefit ratio must be evaluated when using these drugs as adjuvants. This review explains the pharmacology and mechanism of dexmedetomidine, the effect of dexmedetomidine on various peripheral nerve block as an adjuvant, and compare it with other types of adjuvants. We summarized and reviewed the application progress of dexmedetomidine as an adjuvant in nerve block and look forward to its future research direction.

Abstract
Introduction Pain is a common postoperative complication. The ideal postoperative analgesia is awake, safe, mobile, and without side effects. The objective of this study is to provide new ideas for postoperative analgesia by observing the safety and analgesic effect of different analgesic methods in patients undergoing laparotomy after surgery. Methods Patients, who underwent laparotomy between September 2019 and December 2020, were randomly divided into three groups: group S received sufentanil, group N received nalbuphine, group T + N received postoperative bilateral transversus abdominis plane block (TAPB) and nalbuphine. The primary outcomes included visual analog scale (VAS) score and the use of postoperative analgesic pump. Secondary outcomes included quality of life recovery (QoR-15) scale score and incidence of postoperative adverse reactions. Results Compared with group S and N, there were significant differences in the resting VAS score within 48 h after surgery, dynamic VAS score within 12 h after surgery, the first compression time, and cumulative use of patient-controlled intravenous analgesia (PCIA) drugs at 24 h in group T + N (P < 0.05). The QoR-15 score within 48 h after surgery in group T + N was significantly higher than group N (P < 0.05). The first exhaust time and the incidence of nausea and vomiting in group T + N were significantly lower than those in group N (P < 0.05). Conclusions Sufentanil PCIA and nalbuphine PCIA have equivalent analgesic effects, while TAPB combined with nalbuphine PCIA can ensure a good analgesic effect, thereby reducing the incidence of adverse reactions.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Renal dysfunction after kidney transplantation may be influenced by many reasons. This study was designed to evaluate whether the administration of dexmedetomidine (Dex) could ameliorate renal function and prognosis after kidney transplantation. METHODS A total of 65 patients were divided into Dex group (n = 33) and Con group (Con, n = 32). Dex group intravenously received an initial loading dose of 0.6 μg/kg Dex for 15 min before anaesthesia induction, followed by a rate of 0.4 μg/kg/h until 30 min after kidney reperfusion. By contrast, Con group received saline. The concentration of urinary kidney injury molecule-1 (KIM-1), serum creatinine (Cr), blood urea, urine output, β2 microglobulin (β2-MG), Cystatin C (CysC), and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) was recorded and compared between two groups during the course of the hospitalization or follow-up. Mean arterial pressure (MAP) and heart rate (HR), vasoactive drugs, and anaesthetics were recorded during the operation. Pain degree was evaluated using a visual analogue scale (VAS) after operation. Delayed graft function (DGF), graft loss, length of hospital stay, and mortality were compared between groups. RESULTS The concentration of KIM-1 in Dex group was lower than Con group at 2 h (P = 0.018), 24 h (P = 0.013), 48 h (P < 0.01), and 72 h (P < 0.01) after reperfusion. MAP of Dex group after tracheal intubation (P = 0.012) and incision (P = 0.018) and HR after intubation (P = 0.021) were lower than that of Con group. The dosage of sufentanil during operation in Dex group was less than Con group (P = 0.039). Patients that used atropine in Dex group were more than Con group (P = 0.027). Patients who received Dex presented with lower VAS scores at 6 h (P = 0.01) and 12 h (P = 0.002) after operation. Concentration of serum Cr and blood urea had no significant differences between groups before operation and on postoperative day 1 to 6. Urine output was recorded for 6 days after operation and had no differences between groups. Also, no differences were identified between two groups in urea, Cr, β2-MG, CysC, and eGFR in the first 3 months after operation. Incidence of DGF after operation was detected no difference between groups, while length of hospital stay in Dex group was less than Con group (P = 0.012). CONCLUSION Dex can decrease kidney injury marker level, attenuate perioperative stress, relieve the dosage of sufentanil and postoperative pain, and reduce length of hospital stay. However, Dex is not associated with changes in prognosis in the first 3 months after transplantation.

Abstract
Background The objective of this study was to compare the analgesic potency of oxycodone versus morphine after laparoscopic deep infiltrating endometriosis resection. Methods Fifty patients undergoing laparoscopic deep infiltrating endometriosis resection were randomized to receive oxycodone or morphine intravenous-PCA after surgery. The primary outcome was opioid consumption during the 24 h after surgery. Secondary outcomes included time to first request for analgesia, the number of bolus, pain, sedation, nausea, vomiting, respiratory depression, and bradycardia. The prominent pain that caused patients to press the analgesic device was also recorded. Results Oxycodone consumption (14.42 ± 2.83) was less than morphine consumption (20.14 ± 3.83). Compared with the morphine group, the total number of bolus (78 vs 123) was less and the average time to first request for analgesia (97.27 ± 59.79 vs 142.17 ± 51) was longer in the oxycodone group. The incidence of nausea was higher in the morphine group than in the oxycodone group at 0–2 h (45.45% vs 17.19%), 2–4 h (50% vs 17.19%),12–24 h (40.91% vs 13.04%) and 0–24 h (39.17% vs 19.13%). The overall incidence of vomiting was higher in the morphine group (27.27% vs 13.92%). There was no difference in visual analogue scale score, the incidence of respiratory depression, and bradycardia between groups. Of the three types of pain that prompted patients to request analgesia, the incidence of visceral pain was highest (59.9%, P < 0.01). Conclusion Oxycodone was more potent than morphine for analgesia after laparoscopic endometriosis resection, and oxycodone has fewer side effects than morphine.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Transversus abdominis plane (TAP) blocks have been shown to successfully reduce pain and opioid consumption after general and gynaecological surgery. OBJECTIVE To evaluate whether TAP blocks alleviate pain and opioid consumption after urological procedures. DESIGN A systematic review and meta-analysis. DATA SOURCES MEDLINE, Embase and CENTRAL. ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA Without language restriction, randomised controlled trials (RCTs) that compared the effects of TAP blocks with placebo or no treatment in urological surgery. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Primary outcomes were pain intensities at rest and movement at 6, 12 and 24 h after surgery. Secondary outcomes were postoperative opioid consumption in the first 24 h after surgery and postoperative nausea and vomiting. We performed meta-analyses using random effects models. Effect sizes were expressed as mean differences for continuous variables. We used the Cochrane risk of bias tool (RoB 2.0) to assess risk of bias. RESULTS We analysed 20 RCTs comprising a total of 1239 patients. The risk of bias of the studies was relatively high. TAP blocks significantly reduced postoperative pain at all time points compared with placebo or no treatment. Mean differences on an 11-point pain intensity scale were between 0.55 (95% CI: -0.90, to -0.21; P = 0.002; I2 = 94%) to 1.13 (95% CI: -1.62 to -0.65; P < 0.001; I2 = 95%) less at rest and 0.74 (95% CI: -1.25 to -0.23; P = 0.005; I2 = 79%) to 1.32 (95% CI: -1.83 to -0.81; P < 0.001; I2 = 68%) less on movements. TAP blocks also reduced opioid consumption in the first 24 h after surgery significantly by 12.25 mg (95% CI: -17.99 to -6.52 mg; P < 0.001; I2 = 99%) morphine equivalents. Possibly, this had no influence on postoperative nausea and vomiting (risk ratio: 0.98; 95% CI: 0.66 to 1.45; P = 0.91; I2 = 30%). CONCLUSION TAP blocks seem to offer improved analgesia when used after urological surgery. However, due to the large heterogeneity between and the considerable risk of bias within the included studies results should be viewed with caution.

Abstract
Enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) initially started in the early 2000s as a series of protocols to improve the perioperative care of surgical patients. They aimed to increase patient satisfaction while reducing postoperative complications and postoperative length of stay. Despite these protocols being widely adopted in many fields of surgery, they are yet to be adopted in pancreatic transplantation: a high-risk surgery with often prolonged length of postoperative stay and high rate of complications. We have analysed the literature in pancreatic and transplantation surgery to identify the necessary preoperative, intra-operative and postoperative components of an ERAS pathway in pancreas transplantation.
