NCT04906187

Brief Summary

This is a single-center, randomized, phase II, non-comparative, single-blind clinical study that will determine whether morphine reduction through intraoperative monitoring by ANI (Analgesia Nociception Index) significantly reduces chronic post-surgical pain at three months after laparotomy for ovarian carcinoma with regard to standard care.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Proportion of patients with a pain score on the self-assessment VAS > 4, three months after the surgery.

    The Visual Analog Scale (VAS) is a validated, reliable and reproducible tool. The VAS will be used to measure pain. This self-assessment scale allows the patient to evaluate his or her pain from 0 to 10 "0=No pain" to "10=Maximum imaginable pain ". A pain VAS score of 4 and above is considered clinically significant.

    3 months after surgery

Secondary Outcomes (6)

  • Arm A : total dose of opioids received intraoperatively

    Surgery

  • Arm B : total dose of opioids received intraoperatively

    Surgery

  • Arm A : Patients' pain score on the VAS immediately postoperatively

    within one hour of extubation

  • Arm B : Patients' pain score on the VAS immediately postoperatively

    within one hour of extubation

  • Arm A : proportion of patients with a DN4 questionnaire score> 4, three months after surgery

    3 months after surgery

  • +1 more secondary outcomes

Study Arms (2)

Arm A : Experimental group with intraoperative ANI monitoring of nociception

EXPERIMENTAL
Other: Arm A : intraoperative ANI monitoring of nociception

Arm B : Control group without ANI intraoperative monitoring of nociception

OTHER
Other: Arm B : no specific monitoring of nociception

Interventions

For the control group (arm B), adjustments to the opioid doses are made in relation to the hemodynamic reactions of the patient and the operating times. Intraoperative data will be collected for TIVA and hemodynamics.

Arm B : Control group without ANI intraoperative monitoring of nociception

For the experimental group (arm A), the sufentanil doses are adjusted to maintain an ANI between 50 and 70. Morphine doses are adjusted from 0.05 to 0.05 µg / ml. Intraoperative data will be collected for ANI, TIVA and hemodynamics.
