Postoperative analgesic effect of hydromorphone in patients undergoing single-port video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery: a randomized controlled trial.

ABSTRACT: Objective: To study the general efficacy of hydromorphone as a systemic analgesic in postoperative pain management following single-port video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) and to explore the optimal administration regimen. Methods: A prospective, randomized, double-blind study was designed and conducted in a tertiary hospital. In total, 157 valid patients undergoing single-port VATS were randomly allocated into three groups. A total of 53 patients received morphine bolus only for postoperative analgesia (Group Mb); 51 patients received a hydromorphone background infusion plus bolus (Group Hb + i), and 53 patients received a hydromorphone bolus only (Group Hb). The primary outcomes were patient-reported static and dynamic pain levels; the secondary outcomes included side effects, sleep quality, and recovery indexes. Results: Patients in Group Hb + i experienced lower pain intensity (approximately 10 out of 100 on the visual analog scale) in both static pain and dynamic pain in the days following surgery (P<0.01), better sleep quality during the first night only (P=0.002), and a higher satisfaction level than those in the other two groups (P=0.006). A comparison of these variables in Group Mb and Group Hb resulted in no significant differences. Lastly, side effects and recovery indexes remained the same among bolus-only groups and bolus-plus-background-infusion groups. Conclusion: There is no advantage to administering hydromorphone over morphine using bolus only mode. Within 24 h after surgery, a background infusion should be considered as a part of a standard protocol for patient-controlled intravenous analgesia. At 24 h after surgery, the background infusion should be adjusted in accordance with patient preferences and pain intensity.

Project description:BackgroundThe morbidity and mortality of lung cancer have always ranked first among malignant tumors (MTs). Previous studies have shown that neoadjuvant chemotherapy can improve the 5-year survival rate of patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), but the benefit is limited. Studies have proven that neoadjuvant immunotherapy combined with chemotherapy has unique advantages in prolonging patient survival, reducing distant recurrence, and inducing antitumor immunity. However, its impact remains to be more comprehensively investigated.Case descriptionA 59-year-old male who was admitted to the hospital with a primary complaint of repeated cough and expectoration for 6 months. Preoperative assessment showed right upper lung squamous cell carcinoma with multiple hilar and mediastinal lymph node metastasis, and the clinical stage was cT2aN2M0 stage (IIIA). After three cycles of pembrolizumab + carboplatin + paclitaxel therapy were administered, the reexamination of the tumor was evaluated as partial response (PR), and a sleeve lobectomy of the right upper lung was performed under single-port thoracoscopic surgery. The operation proceeded smoothly without conversion to thoracotomy, and R0 resection was successfully achieved. Postoperative pathological stage was ypT1bN0M0 stage IA, and postoperative pathological remission was evaluated as major pathological response (MPR). After the operation, three cycles of immunotherapy combined with chemotherapy were completed, which was followed by maintenance therapy with pembrolizumab monotherapy for 1 year, and no signs of tumor recurrence and metastasis have been found in follow-up thus far.ConclusionsThrough this case, we believe that for locally advanced NSCLC sleeve lobectomy after neoadjuvant therapy may be a safe and feasible treatment option, can avoid pneumonectomy, protect the lung function of patients, and still ensure the R0 resection rate. Moreover, it may does not significantly increase the difficulty of surgical operation or reduce safety. However, further research is needed to confirm our conclusion. And then, neoadjuvant therapy in the perioperative period may induce a series of side effects or adverse reactions, and thus greater attention should be paid to its timely management.

Project description:ObjectivesThere are many recent and minimally invasive surgical innovations, yet there has been little evaluation of the limitations of such techniques, particularly those related to video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery. The aims of this study were to determine the usefulness and limitations of video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery using one-port access and needle scope and to evaluate the feasibility of this procedure based on our institutional experience.MethodsThis retrospective study involved 127 patients who underwent video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery using the one-window and puncture method at our institute from 1997 to 2011. One hundred patients underwent surgical treatment and 27 underwent diagnostic procedures. If there was one lesion present with only mild adhesion that did not require lymph node dissection, we decided to opt for the one-direction approach that provisionally indicates the one-window and puncture method. We compared the conversion and success groups for factors like age, sex, laterality of surgery, objective of surgery, target organ and surgery location.ResultsOf 127 cases, 115 (91%) successfully underwent the one-window and puncture procedure. Twelve cases (9%) were converted to the two-window method or thoracotomy. Compared with those targeting the lung, patients with mediastinal lesions demonstrated a higher tendency for conversion (P<0.05). However, age (P=0.89), sex (P=0.46), laterality of surgery (P=0.34) and purpose of surgery (P=0.68) did not show any significant differences between the groups.ConclusionsFor lung and mediastinal diseases, video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery with the one-window and puncture method can be performed at any location (upper, middle and lower lobe of lung and anterior, middle and posterior of the mediastinum) under limited indications that include the possibility of one-way resection, mild adhesion and no requirement of lymph node dissection. Under provisional criteria, the procedure may be feasible.

Project description:BackgroundRegional analgesic techniques such as paravertebral blocks (PVBs) have been popularized for analgesia following video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS). In this single center retrospective propensity matched cohort of subjects, we investigate the impact of paravertebral blocks on the analgesic and non-analgesic outcomes.MethodsInstitutional database was queried to identify all patients undergoing VATS between January 2013 and July 2019 and these patients were divided into those who received paravertebral blocks in combination with general anesthesia (GA) [PVB group] and those who received GA without paravertebral blocks [GA group]. Propensity score matching based on common patient confounders were used to identify patients in each group. Primary outcomes of the study were average pain scores and opioid consumption in the first 24 hours. Secondary analgesic outcomes included pain scores and opioid requirements at other timepoints over the first 48 hours. Non analgesic outcomes were obtained from STS General Thoracic Surgery Database and included length of hospital stay, need for ICU admission, composite outcome of any complication during the hospital course and 30-day mortality. Exploratory analyses were conducted to investigate the impact of PVB on analgesia following different types of surgery and as to whether any other covariates had a greater influence on the included patient centered outcomes.Main resultsAfter propensity score matching, a total of 520 patients (260 per group) were selected for the study out of 1095 patients. The opioid consumption in terms of oral morphine milligram equivalent (MME) [Median (IQR)] for the first 24 hours was significantly lower with the use of PVB [PVB group- 78.5 (96.75); GA group-127.0 (111.5); p<0.001] while the average pain scores in the first 24 hours did not differ significantly [PVB group-4.71 (2.28); GA group-4.85 (2.30); p = 0.70]. The length of hospital stay, opioid requirements at other timepoints, need for ICU admission in the immediate post-operative period and the composite outcome-'any complication' (35% vs 48%) were significantly lower with the use of PVB. Subgroup analysis showed a longer duration of benefit following major lung surgeries compared to others.ConclusionParavertebral blocks reduced the length of stay and opioid consumption up to 48 hours after VATS without significantly impacting pain scores.
