Effects of deep neuromuscular blockade on the stress response during laparoscopic gastrectomy Randomized controlled trials.

ABSTRACT: Maintaining deep neuromuscular block during surgery improves surgical space conditions. However, its effects on patient outcomes have not been well documented. We examined whether maintaining deep neuromuscular blockade during surgery could decrease the stress response compared to moderate neuromuscular blockade. Patients undergoing laparoscopic gastrectomy were randomly allocated to either the moderate (train-of-four counts of 1-2) or deep (post-tetanic counts of 1-2) neuromuscular blockade group. The primary outcome variable was the postoperative blood level of interleukin-6, and the secondary outcome variables were intraoperative or postoperative blood levels of tumor necrosis factor-?, interleukin-1?, interleukin-8, and C-reactive protein. A total of 96 patients were recruited and 88 (44 in each group) were included in the analyses. The levels of tumor necrosis factor-? and interleukin-1? measured at the end of surgery, interleukin-6 and interleukin-8 measured at 2?h postoperatively, and C-reactive protein measured at 48?h postoperatively were all significantly increased compared to the preoperative values, but there were no differences between the moderate and deep neuromuscular block groups. We found no differences in surgical stress response measured using determining levels of interleukin-6 and other mediators released between the moderate and deep neuromuscular blockade groups in patients undergoing laparoscopic gastrectomy.

Project description:BackgroundAnesthesia with deep neuromuscular block for laparoscopic surgery may result in less postoperative pain with lower intra-abdominal pressure. However, the results in the existing literature are controversial. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of deep versus moderate neuromuscular block (NMB) on the postoperative recovery characteristics after laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) for weight loss surgery.MethodsThis is parallel-group, randomized clinical trial. The study was conducted at a tertiary care center. Patients undergoing LSG were included. Patients were randomly assigned to either deep (post-tetanic count 1-2) or moderate (train-of-four 1-2) NMB group. The primary outcomes were numeric rating scale scores of the postoperative pain at rest and postoperative shoulder pain. The secondary outcomes were the length of hospital stay (LOS) and postoperative complications. The statistics were performed using StatsDirect statistical software (Version 2.7.9).ResultsTwo groups were identified: Group D (deep NMB), 29 patients, and Group M (moderate NMB), 28 patients. The BMI mean values for groups D and M were 44 and 45 kg/m2 respectively (P > 0.05). The mean durations of surgery for were 46.7 min and 44.1 min for groups M and D, respectively (P > 0.05). The mean train-of-four (TOF) counts were 0.3 and 0 for groups M and D, respectively (P < 0.05). The mean times from giving reversal agent to tracheal extubation (minutes) were 6.5 and 6.58 min for groups M and D, respectively (P > 0.05). In the recovery room, the means of pain scores were 3 and 4 for groups M and D, respectively (P > 0.05). Upon admission to the surgical ward, the median values of the pain score were non-significant (P > 0.05) (95% CI: 0.4-0.7). The opioid consumption in the recovery room was non-significant between both groups (P > 0.05) (95% CI: 0.3-0.6). Postoperative shoulder pain was non-significant between both groups (P > 0.05) (95% CI: 0.4-0.7). The median values of surgeon opinion of both groups were non-significant (P > 0.05). Regarding the LOS, the mean values of groups D and M were 1.20 and 1.21 days, respectively (P > 0.05).ConclusionsThere was no significant difference between moderate and deep NMB techniques in terms of duration of the surgical procedure, postoperative pain, shoulder pain, and length of hospital stay. Further studies on a larger sample size are required to investigate the long-term recovery characteristics of patients with obesity undergoing LSG.

Project description:Study objectiveTo assess whether different intensities of intra-abdominal pressure and deep neuromuscular blockade influence the risk of intra-operative surgical complications during laparoscopic donor nephrectomy.DesignA pooled analysis of ten previously performed prospective randomized controlled trials.SettingLaparoscopic donor nephrectomy performed in four academic hospitals in the Netherlands: Radboudumc, Leiden UMC, Erasmus MC Rotterdam, and Amsterdam UMC.PatientsFive hundred fifty-six patients undergoing a transperitoneal, fully laparoscopic donor nephrectomy enrolled in ten prospective, randomized controlled trials conducted in the Netherlands from 2001 to 2017.InterventionsModerate (tetanic count of four > 1) versus deep (post-tetanic count 1-5) neuromuscular blockade and standard (≥10 mmHg) versus low (<10 mmHg) intra-abdominal pressure.MeasurementsThe primary endpoint is the number of intra-operative surgical complications defined as any deviation from the ideal intra-operative course occurring between skin incision and closure with five severity grades, according to ClassIntra. Multiple logistic regression analyses were used to identify predictors of intra- and postoperative complications.Main resultsIn 53/556 (9.5%) patients, an intra-operative complication with ClassIntra grade ≥ 2 occurred. Multiple logistic regression analyses showed standard intra-abdominal pressure (OR 0.318, 95% CI 0.118-0.862; p = 0.024) as a predictor of less intra-operative complications and moderate neuromuscular blockade (OR 3.518, 95% CI 1.244-9.948; p = 0.018) as a predictor of more intra-operative complications. Postoperative complications occurred in 31/556 (6.8%), without significant predictors in multiple logistic regression analyses.ConclusionsOur data indicate that the use of deep neuromuscular blockade could increase safety during laparoscopic donor nephrectomy. Future randomized clinical trials should be performed to confirm this and to pursue whether it also applies to other types of laparoscopic surgery.Trial registrationClinicaltrials.gov LEOPARD-2 (NCT02146417), LEOPARD-3 trial (NCT02602964), and RELAX-1 study (NCT02838134), Klop et al.

Project description:BACKGROUND:Deep neuromuscular blockade may facilitate the use of reduced insufflation pressure without compromising the surgical field of vision. The current evidence, which suggests improved surgical conditions compared with other levels of block during laparoscopic surgery, features significant heterogeneity. We examined surgical patient- and healthcare resource use-related outcomes of deep neuromuscular blockade compared with moderate neuromuscular blockade in adults undergoing laparoscopic surgery. METHODS:We conducted a systematic literature review according to the quality standards recommended by the Cochrane Handbook for Systematic Reviews. Randomized controlled trials comparing outcomes of deep neuromuscular blockade and moderate neuromuscular blockade among adults undergoing laparoscopic surgeries were included. A random-effects model was used to conduct pair-wise meta-analyses. RESULTS:The systematic literature review included 15 studies-only 13 were analyzable in the meta-analysis and none were judged to be at high risk of bias. Compared with moderate neuromuscular blockade, deep neuromuscular blockade was associated with improved surgical field of vision and higher vision quality scores. Also, deep neuromuscular blockade was associated with a reduction in the post-operative pain scores in the post-anesthesia care unit compared with moderate neuromuscular blockade, and there was no need for an increase in intra-abdominal pressure during the surgical procedures. There were minor savings on resource utilization, but no differences were seen in recovery in the post-anesthesia care unit or overall length of hospital stay with deep neuromuscular blockade. CONCLUSIONS:Deep neuromuscular blockade may aid the patient and physician surgical experience by improving certain patient outcomes, such as post-operative pain and improved surgical ratings, compared with moderate neuromuscular blockade. Heterogeneity in the pooled estimates suggests the need for better designed randomized controlled trials.

Project description:Background:Neuromuscular blocking agent (NMBA) has been proposed by medical guidelines for early severe acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) because of its survival benefits. However, new studies have provided evidence contradicting these results. Method:A search was performed of the Pubmed, Scopus, Clinicaltrials.gov, and Virtual Health Library databases for randomized controlled trials (RCT) evaluating 28-day mortality in ARDS patients treated with NMBA within 48?h. An English language restriction was applied. Relevant data were extracted and pooled into risk ratios (RR), mean differences (MD), and corresponding 95% confidence intervals (CI) using random-effect model. Sensitivity and meta-regression analysis were performed. Results:From 2675 studies, we included five RCTs in the analysis, for a total of 1461 patients with a mean PaO2/FIO2 of 104?±?35?mmHg. The cisatracurium group had the same risk of death at 28?days (RR, 0.90; 95% CI, 0.78-1.03; I 2 =?50%, p =?0.12) and 90?days (RR, 0.81; 95% CI, 0.62-1.06; I 2 =?56%, p =?0.06) as the control group (no cisatracurium). The secondary outcomes of mechanical ventilation duration and ventilator-free days were not different between the two groups. Cisatracurium had a significantly lower risk of barotrauma than the control group with no difference in intensive care unit (ICU)-induced weakness. The PaO2/FIO2 ratio was higher in the cisatracurium group but not until 48?h. Meta-regression analysis of the baseline PaO2/FIO2 ratio, positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) revealed no heterogeneity. Subgroup analysis excluding the trial using high PEEP and light sedation strategy yielded an improvement in all mortality outcomes. Conclusion:NMBA improves oxygenation only after 48?h in moderate, severe ARDS patients and has a lower barotrauma risk without affecting ICU weakness. However, NMBA does not reduce ventilator-free days, duration of mechanical ventilation or, most importantly, the mortality risk regardless of the severity of ARDS.
