Abstract:
Objective: To investigate the analgesic effect and impact of lornoxicam on the expression of plasma IL-6 and IL-10 in patients undergoing upper abdominal surgery.Methods:Sixty patients undergoing upper abdominal surgery were randomly allocated into three groups,morphine group(M,n=20),postoperative lornoxicam group(L,n=20) and preemptive lornoxicam group(P,n=20).For group M the subjects received patient controlled intravenous analgesia(PCIA) with morphine(loading dose 0.05 mg/kg,bolus 1 mg,lockout time 10 min,background dose 0 mg) after the surgery.While in group L,8 mg lornoxiam was administered at the end of the surgery,then the same morphine PCIA scheme as in group M was used in combination with intermittent intravenous lornoxiam(8 mg per injection) at 12,24 and 36 h after the surgery.Except that the first 8 mg lornoxicam was injected 30 min before the operation,the analgesic paradigm of group P was similar to group L.The analgesic effect assessed by VAS at rest,the consumed dosage of morphine,and the adverse effects as nausea and vomiting,were recorded at 4,8,12,24 and 48 h.Furthermore,2 ml of the venous blood was drawn before the induction of anesthesia 2,6,12,and 24 h after the surgery to measure the levels of interleukin 6(IL-6) and interleukin 10(IL-10).Results: During the 48 h observation,the VAS at rest was not statistically significant in the three groups,but more morphine was consumed in group M than in group L and group P.There was no difference among the three groups in the incidence of such adverse effects as nausea or vomiting.The basic levels of IL-6 and IL-10 were too low to be measured.The concentrations of IL-10 and IL-6 reached the peak at 2 and 6 h after surgery respectively,and the level of IL-10 in group M was significantly lower than in groups L and P at 2 h.In contrast,the level of IL-6 in group M was significantly higher than in group L and group P at 6 h,and even higher than in group P at 12 h. Conclusion: Lornoxicam,especially when administered before upper abdominal operation,could significantly decrease the dose of morphine for postoperative analgesia and attenuate the inflammatory cytokine response after surgery.
