NCT04858711

Brief Summary

The aim of this study will be to investigate the effect of an opioid-free anesthesia regimen with a mixture of dexmedetomidine-lidocaine-ketamine in the same syringe versus fentanyl analgesia in elective laparoscopic gynecological surgery

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (6)

  • change from baseline in Quality of Recovery (QoR)-15 score after surgery

    The QoR-15 is a quality of recovery scale that consists of 15 questions (items),including questions regarding pain (2 items), physical comfort (5 items), self-care ability (2 items), psychological support (2 items) and emotional state (4 items). Every item is scored on a scale of 10, with the lowest total score of 0 and the highest score of 150. The higher the score, the better the recovery quality of the patient

    24 hours postoperatively

  • pain score on arrival to Post-Anesthesia Care Unit (PACU)

    pain score by the use of Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) on arrival to PACU, ranging from 0 to 10, where 0 means "no pain" and 10 means "worst pain imaginable"

    immediately postoperatively

  • pain score at discharge from Post-Anesthesia Care Unit (PACU)

    pain score by the use of Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) at discharge from PACU, ranging from 0 to 10, where 0 means "no pain" and 10 means "worst pain imaginable"

    at discharge from Post Anesthesia Care Unit (PACU), approximately 1 hour postoperatively

  • pain score 3 hours postoperatively

    pain score by the use of Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) 3 hours postoperatively, ranging from 0 to 10, where 0 means "no pain" and 10 means "worst pain imaginable"

    3 hours postoperatively

  • pain score 6 hours postoperatively

    pain score by the use of Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) 6 hours postoperatively, ranging from 0 to 10, where 0 means "no pain" and 10 means "worst pain imaginable"

    6 hours postoperatively

  • pain score 24 hours postoperatively

    pain score by the use of Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) 24 hours postoperatively, ranging from 0 to 10, where 0 means "no pain" and 10 means "worst pain imaginable"

    24 hours postoperatively

Secondary Outcomes (19)

  • Post Anesthesia Care Unit (PACU) duration of stay

    immediately postoperatively

  • sedation on arrival to Post-Anesthesia Care Unit

    immediately postoperatively

  • sedation at discharge from Post-Anesthesia Care (PACU) Unit

    at discharge from Post Anesthesia Care Unit (PACU), approximately 1 hour postoperatively

  • sevoflurane consumption during general anesthesia

    change of sevoflurane vaporizer weight from before induction to end of anesthesia, an average period of 2-3 hours

  • time to first request for analgesia

    during stay in Post-Anesthesia Care Unit (PACU), approximately 1 hour postoperatively

  • +14 more secondary outcomes

Other Outcomes (2)

  • time to emergence

    up to 2-3 hours after start of surgery

  • time to extubation

    up to 2-3 hours after start of surgery

Study Arms (2)

ketamine-lidocaine-dexmedetomidine (KLD) group

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

combination of ketamine-lidocaine-dexmedetomidine in one syringe

Drug: ketamine-lidocaine-dexmedetomidine

fentanyl (control) group

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

syringe of fentanyl

Drug: fentanyl

Interventions

In the KLD group, patients will be administered 0,25 mcg/kg Dexmedetomidine in 100 mL of normal saline within 10 minutes. Followingly, they will receive 1mL/10 kg of the solution containing ketamine, lidocaine and dexmedetomidine at predefined concentrations. As maintenance, they will be receiving 1mL/10kg/h of the aforementioned solution.

Also known as: KLD group
ketamine-lidocaine-dexmedetomidine (KLD) group

In the fentanyl group, patients will be administered 2 mcg/kg fentanyl in 100 mL of normal saline within 10 minutes. Followingly, they will receive 1mL/10 kg of normal saline solution 0.9%. As maintenance, they will be receiving 1mL/10kg/h of normal saline solution 0.9%.

Also known as: Control group
fentanyl (control) group
