Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The hypothesis is whether perineural dexamethasone and dexmedetomidine prolonged the duration of analgesia as compared with either perineural dexamethasone or perineural dexmedetomidine after TPVB.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Drug: dexamethasone; dexmedetomidine; ropivacaine
Phase 4

Detailed Description

Design: A prospective, randomized, controlled study Setting: Single-center university hospital. Participants: The study included 90 patients undergoing lobectomy under general anesthesia.

Interventions: The patients were allocated randomly into the following 3 groups: 20 ml mixture of 37.5 mg ropivacaine with 5 mg dexamethasone (RS group) or 1 µg/kg dexmedetomidine (RM group), or with 1 µg/kg dexmedetomidine and 5 mg dexamethasone (RSM group). Ultrasound-guided TPVB was performed at 4 points-T4-5, T5-6, T6-7, and T7-8 of the surgical side; 5 mL of solution were injected at each point. Postoperatively, the PCIA was used as part of multimodal analgesia, and all patients recieve .

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. the duration of analgesia [48 hours after surgery]

    time from completion of TPVB operation to VAS more than 3

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. total sufentanil consumption [48 hours after surgery]

  2. VAS [1, 2, 4, 8, 12, 24, 36, and 48 hours after surgery]

    VAS at rest and during coughing are evaluated by a blinded observer postoperatively

  3. adverse effects [48 hours after surgery]
