Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the effect of ultrasound-guided lumbar quadratus muscle plane block combined with general anesthesia on the analgesic effect during and after laparoscopic colon cancer radical surgery in elderly patients.Methods:A prospective study was conducted on 61 elderly patients who underwent radical colon cancer surgery at the Changsha Central Hospital Affiliated to South China University from May 2022 to February 2023, with American Society of Anesthesiologist (ASA) grades Ⅱ to Ⅲ. They were randomly divided into SA and GA groups using a random number table method, with 31 patients in the SA group and 30 patients in the GA group. The SA group received ultrasound-guided plane block of the upper lumbar quadratus muscle in the arcuate ligament combined with general anesthesia, while the GA group received simple general anesthesia. Record the mean artery pressure (MAP) and heart rate (HR) of two groups of patients at the time of entering the operating room (T 0), 5 minutes before skin incision (T 1), at skin incision (T 2), 30 minutes after surgery (T 3), at surgery end (T 4), and during anesthesia resuscitation and extubation (T 5); The Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) of two groups of patients at T 5, upon returning to the ward (T 6), 6 hours (T 7), 12 hours (T 8), 24 hours (T 9), and 48 hours (T 10) after surgery were recorded; The dosage of sufentanil, remifentanil, and propofol used during surgery, anesthesia recovery time, total number of analgesic pump presses within 48 hours after surgery, Lovett muscle strength score, early postoperative recovery, and adverse reactions within 48 hours after surgery were also recorded. Resultsl:The MAP and HR of the SA group were lower than those of the GA group at T 1-5 (all P<0.05); The VAS score of the SA group was lower than that of the GA group at T 5-10 (all P<0.05); The intraoperative dosage of propofol, remifentanil, and sufentanil in the SA group was lower than that in the GA group (all P<0.05); The anesthesia recovery time and first time out of bed in the SA group were earlier than those in the GA group (all P<0.05); The total number of times the analgesic pump was pressed within 48 hours after surgery was less than that of the GA group ( P<0.05); The incidence of nausea and vomiting within 48 hours after surgery in the SA group was lower than that in the GA group ( P<0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in postoperative Lovett muscle strength score, hospital stay, and dizziness incidence between the two groups of patients (all P>0.05). Conclusions:Ultrasound-guided lumbar quadratus muscle plane block on the arcuate ligament can significantly reduce the dosage of intraoperative general anesthesia drugs and postoperative analgesics in elderly patients undergoing laparoscopic colon cancer surgery, reduce postoperative pain scores, effectively alleviate postoperative pain, and thus advance the patient′s first time out of bed activity, reduce postoperative complications, and promote rapid recovery.
