NCT03975296

Brief Summary

This trial is a prospective, randomized, single-center, open-label, parallel-arm, blinded-analysis trial, the objective of which is to evaluate the effect of transmuscular quadratus lumborum block (TMQLB) in the pain relief and quality of recovery in laparoscopic partial nephrectomy compared with thoracic paravertebral block (TPVB).

    within 48 postoperative hours

  • dermatomal distribution of sensory reduction

    30 min after the block

  • quality of recovery evaluated by the self-assessment 15-item quality of recovery (QoR) scale

    at 3 days and 5 days after the sugery

  • postoperative length of hospital stay

    within 2 weeks after the surgery

Study Arms (2)

TMQLB group

EXPERIMENTAL
Procedure: preoperative single-shot TMQLBDrug: patient controlled intravenous analgesia(PCIA)

TPVB group

ACTIVE COMPARATOR
Procedure: preoperative single-shot TPVBDrug: patient controlled intravenous analgesia(PCIA)

Interventions

The patient is placed in the lateral position. The curved probe of Ultrasound Scanner is used for scan and located vertical to the iliac crest at the posterior axillary line to find the Shamrock sign. The 22-G needle is then inserted in plane and directed to the QL muscle. After the proper position of the needle tip between the psoas major muscle and the quadratus lumborum muscle is confirmed, 0. 6 ml/kg 0.5% ropivacaine is injected into the interfascial plane. Followed by IPCA in the first 48h after surgery: morphine boluses: 1.5-2 mg, lockout time :10 min, 1h limitation: 6-8 mg morphine.

TMQLB group

The patient is placed in the lateral position, the spinous processes of T10 are identified and marks are made 2cm lateral to the spinous processes. The curve probe of ultrasound scanner is placed transversally at the mark to identify the paravertebral space. Then a 22-G needle is inserted in-plane from lateral to medial and advanced until the tip reached the paravertebral space surrounded by the parietal pleura and the superior costotransverse ligament. 0.4 ml/kg 0.5% ropivacaine is injected into the paravertebral space of T10.

TPVB group

at the end of surgery, patient is administered a PCIA with morphine boluses: 1.5-2 mg, lockout time :10 min, 1h limitation: 6-8 mg morphine.
