Spinal block and delirium in oncologic patients after laparoscopic surgery in the Trendelenburg position: A randomized controlled trial.

ABSTRACT: Delirium is the most common postsurgical neurological complication and has a variable incidence rate. Laparoscopic surgery, when associated with the Trendelenburg position, can cause innumerable physiological changes and increase the risk of neurocognitive changes. The association of general anesthesia with a spinal block allows the use of lower doses of anesthetic agents for anesthesia maintenance and facilitates better control over postoperative pain. Our primary outcome was to assess whether a spinal block influences the incidence of delirium in oncologic patients following laparoscopic surgery in the Trendelenburg position. Our secondary outcome was to analyze whether there were other associated factors. A total of 150 oncologic patients who underwent elective laparoscopic surgeries in the Trendelenburg position were included in this randomized controlled trial. The patients were randomized into 2 groups: the general anesthesia group and the general anesthesia plus spinal block group. Patients were immediately evaluated during the postoperative period and monitored until they were discharged, to rule out the presence of delirium. Delirium occurred in 29 patients in total (22.3%) (general anesthesia group: 30.8%; general anesthesia plus spinal block: 13.8% p = 0.035). Patients who received general anesthesia had a higher risk of delirium than patients who received general anesthesia associated with a spinal block (odds ratio = 3.4; 95% confidence interval: 1.2-9.6; p = 0.020). Spinal block was associated with reduced delirium incidence in oncologic patients who underwent elective laparoscopic surgeries in the Trendelenburg position.

Project description:BackgroundLaparoscopic surgery has become a standard of care for many gynecological surgeries due to its lower morbidity, pain and cost compared to open techniques. Unfortunately, the use of carbon dioxide (CO2) to insufflate the abdomen is the main contributor to post-operative shoulder pain.MethodsWe aim to assess the effect of postoperative Trendelenburg position on shoulder pain after gynecological laparoscopic procedures. We hypothesize that maintaining the patient in Trendelenburg for 24 h postoperatively will significantly decrease postoperative shoulder pain and analgesic consumption. After obtaining written informed consent, 108 patients were prospectively randomized into two groups. In the control group, patients underwent standard gynecologic laparoscopic procedures; then after passive deflation of the pneumoperitoneum at the end of the surgery, the patients were placed in supine head up position in the post anesthesia care unit (PACU) and received our institution's common postoperative care. Patients in the intervention group were subjected to the same maneuver but were positioned in a Trendelenburg position (20 °) once fully awake and cooperative in the PACU and retained this position for the first 24 h. Numerical rating scale (NRS) was used to assess shoulder pain and nausea upon patient arrival to the PACU, at 4, 6, 12 (primary outcome) and 24 h postoperatively. Time to first rescue pain medication, total rescue pain medications and overall satisfaction with pain control were recorded. 101 patients were included in the final data analysis.ResultsBoth groups were comparable in terms of baseline characteristics. NRS pain scores were significantly lower in the intervention group at 12 h compared to the control group (0 [0-1] versus 5 [1-4], p < 0.001), furthermore improvement in postoperative shoulder pain between time of arrival to PACU (time zero) and 12 h postoperatively was significantly higher in patients allocated to the experimental group compared to the control group. Pain scores were significantly lower in patients allocated to the experimental group versus the control group (0 [0-1] versus 5 [1-4], p < 0.001).ConclusionIn conclusion, Trendelenburg position is an easy non-pharmacologic intervention that is beneficial in reducing postoperative shoulder pain following gynecologic laparoscopic surgery.Trial registrationRetrospectively registered at Clinicaltrials.gov, registration number NCT04129385, date of registration: June 28, 2019.

Project description:BackgroundHigh and individual positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) during laparoscopic surgery may improve oxygenation and respiratory mechanics.MethodsWe searched RCTs in PubMed, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, and Google Scholar from from from January 2000 to December 2023 comparing the different intraoperative PEEP (low PEEP (LPEEP): 0-5 mbar; moderate PEEP (MPEEP): 6-9 mbar; high PEEP (HPEEP): >=10 mbar; individualized PEEP (iPEEP): PEEP set by special physiological technique) on arterial oxygenation, respiratory compliance (Cdyn) or driving pressure, mean arterial pressure (MAP), and heart rate (HR) in patients during laparoscopic surgery in reverse Trendelenburg position. We calculated mean differences (MD) with 95% confidence intervals (CI), and predictive intervals (PI) using random-effects models. The Cochrane Bias Risk Assessment Tool was applied.Results8 RCTs (n = 425) met the inclusion criteria. HPEEP vs. LPEEP increased PaO2/FiO2 (+ 129.93 [+ 75.20; +184.65] mmHg, p < 0.0001) with high variation of true effect (Chi2 34.92, p < 0.0001; I2 89%). iPEEP vs. LPEEP also increased PaO2/FiO2 + 130.23 [+ 57.18; +203.27] mmHg, p = 0.0005) with high variation of true effect (Chi2 26.95, p < 0.0001; I2 93%). HPEEP vs. LPEEP increased Cdyn (+ 15.06 [5.47; +24.65] ml/mbar, p = 0.002) with high variation of true effect (Chi2 93.16, p < 0.0001; I2 96%). iPEEP vs. LPEEP increased Cdyn (+ 22.46 [+ 8.56; +36.35] ml/mbar, p = 0.002) with high variability of the true effect (Chi2 53.92, p < 0.0001; I2 96%). HPEEP group had higher MAP as compared to LPEEP) + 4.36 [+ 0.36;+8.36], p = 0.03), variability of the true effect was nonsignificant. HR did nit differ between all comparisons.ConclusionIn patients with obesity undergoing surgery in the reverse Trendelenburg position HPEEP and iPEEP may improve oxygenation, decrease driving pressure, and increase dynamic compliance compared to LPEEP with high variation of true effect without relevant hemodynamic compromise. Data with MPEEP comparisons are inconclusive.Prospero registrationCRD42023488971; registered December 14, 2023.
