Abstract:
Objective:To evaluate the efficacy of ultrasound-guided subcostal quadratus lumborum block combined with general anesthesia in laparoscopic bariatric surgery.Methods:In this prospective randomized controlled study, 80 American Society of Anesthesiologists Physical Status classification Ⅰ or Ⅱpatients, aged 18-40 yr, with a body mass index of 30-45 kg/m 2, of cardiac function classification Ⅰ or Ⅱ, who underwent laparoscopic bariatric surgery at the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University from February 2023 to May 2023, were selected and divided into 2 groups ( n=40 each) using a table of random numbers: general anesthesia group (GA group) and subcostal quadratus lumborum block combined with general anesthesia group (SQB+ GA group). Both groups received combined intravenous-inhalational anesthesia. Patients in SQB+ GA group underwent bilateral ultrasound-guided subcostal quadratus lumborum block with 20 ml of 0.375% ropivacaine before anesthesia induction. Oxycodone was administered for analgesia during the post-anesthesia care unit (PACU) stay. Patient-controlled intravenous analgesia with sufentanil and granisetron was used after returning to the ward. When the visual analog scale score >4 within 24 h after surgery, flurbiprofen axetil 50 mg was intravenously given as rescue analgesic. The intraoperative consumption of remifentanil and use of vasoactive drugs were recorded. The effective pressing times of patient-controlled analgesia and requirement for rescue analgesia were recorded. The tracheal extubation time, PACU stay time, use of oxycodone during PACU stay, and occurrence of hypoxemia after tracheal extubation and occurrence of adverse reactions within 24 h after surgery was also recorded. Arterial blood gas analysis was performed at discharge from PACU. Results:Compared with GA group, the intraoperative consumption of remifentanil was significantly reduced, the usage rate of oxycodone, effective pressing times of patient-controlled analgesia and rate of rescue analgesia were significantly decreased, the PaO 2 and PaCO 2 at discharge from PACU were decreased, the tracheal extubation time and PACU stay time were shortened, and the incidence of hypoxemia after tracheal extubation and postoperative nausea and vomiting was decreased in SQB+ GA group ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Compared with general anesthesia alone, ultrasound-guided subcostal quadratus lumborum block combined with general anesthesia can reduce the intraoperative consumption of opioids, alleviate postoperative pain, and decrease the occurrence of postoperative adverse reactions when used in laparoscopic bariatric surgery.
