Preoperative flap-site injection with ropivacaine and epinephrine in BABA robotic and endoscopic thyroidectomy safely reduces postoperative pain: A CONSORT-compliant double-blinded randomized controlled study (PAIN-BREKOR trial).

ABSTRACT: Clinical trials on bilateral axillo-breast approach (BABA) thyroidectomy show that levobupivacaine and ropivacaine significantly reduce postoperative pain, but they focused on BABA robotic thyroidectomy only and did not identify specific sites of significant pain relief. Our objective was to assess the pain reduction at various sites and safety of ropivacaine-epinephrine flap injection in BABA thyroidectomy.This prospective double-blinded randomized controlled trial was conducted in compliance with the revised CONSORT statement (ClinicalTrials.gov registration no. NCT02112370). Patients were randomized into the ropivacaine-epinephrine arm or control (normal saline) arm.From January 2014 to May 2016, 148 patients participated. The primary endpoint was site-specific pain, as measured by numeric rating scale 12?hours after surgery. The ropivacaine-epinephrine group exhibited significantly less swallowing difficulty (P?=?.008), anterior neck pain (P?=?.016), and right (P?=?.019) and left (P?=?.035) chest pain. Secondary endpoints were systolic (P?=?.402), diastolic (P?=?.827) blood pressure, and pulse rate (P?=?.397) after injection before incision and during surgery. The vital signs of the groups just after injection did not differ. During surgery, the ropivacaine-epinephrine patients had higher pulse rates (99?±?13.3 vs 88?±?16.1, P?

Project description:BackgroundThe use of bronchial blockers has been increased for one-lung ventilation; however, the placement of bronchial blockers is time consuming. The objective of this study was to compare the novel extraluminal technique of Uniblocker placement supported by trachea length measurement on computerized tomography images with conventional intraluminal Uniblocker placement method.MethodsSeventy adult patients undergoing left side thoracic surgery were included in the study. All the patients were randomly assigned to one of two groups: conventional intraluminal intubation group (CV-IN group, n = 35) or extraluminal CT guided group (CT-EX group, n = 35). The primary endpoints were the optimal positions of Uniblocker and the injuries of bronchi and carina. The secondary outcomes included the time of Uniblocker placement, the adequacy of lung collapse, the incidences of Uniblocker displacement, sore throat, and hoarseness postoperative.ResultsIn the CV-IN group, 19 of 35 Uniblockers went to the left main-stem bronchus on the initial blind insertion and 15 of 35 Uniblockers were considered as in optimal depth, whereas in the CT-EX group, 32 of 35 Uniblockers went to the left main-stem bronchus on the initial blind insertion and 31 of 35 Uniblockers were considered as in optimal depth (P < .01). The incidence of bronchi and carina injuries was obviously lower in the CT-EX group (occurred in 1 of 35 cases) than that in the CV-IN group (occurred in 8 of 35 cases) (P < .05). The time of Uniblocker placement took 145.4 s in the CV-IN group and 85.4 s in the CT-EX group (P < .01). The malpositions of Uniblocker, the degree of pulmonary collapse and the adverse events postoperative such as sore throat and hoarseness were not significantly different between the two groups (P > .05).ConclusionThe novel extraluminal technique of Uniblocker placement supported by trachea length measurement on computerized tomography images was proved to be more rapid, more accurate and less complications than conventional intraluminal Uniblocker placement method.
