NCT05238506

Brief Summary

Intravenous lidocaine - a potent local anesthetic with analgesic and anti- inflammatory properties has been shown to be an effective adjunct that reduces intra and postoperative opioid consumption and facilitates pain management in adults. In children population promising but limited evidence is available. The study has been planned to evaluate the efficacy of continuous intravenous infusion of lidocaine in alleviation of hemodynamic reaction to tracheal intubation, as well as metabolic and hormonal response to laparoscopic procedure in children.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Hemodynamic reaction to tracheal intubation

    A change in arterial blood pressure more than 20% from baseline. The fractions of patients in each group will be compared.

    Before intubation - immediately after intubation.

Secondary Outcomes (4)

  • Metabolic response to laparoscopic procedure

    First blood sample will be taken 5 minutes after tracheal intubation. Second blood sample will be taken just before extubation.

  • Lidocaine blood level

    First blood sample will be taken 5 minutes after tracheal intubation. Second blood sample will be taken just before extubation.

  • Side effects of lidocaine

    From the beginning of drug infusion until transfer to the postanesthesia care unit (10 minutes after extubation).

  • Hormonal response to laparoscopic procedure

    First blood sample will be taken 5 minutes after tracheal intubation. Second blood sample will be taken just before extubation.

Other Outcomes (1)

  • The requirement for opioids during anesthesia

    From the induction of anesthesia through to postanesthesia care unit admission (10 minutes after extubation).

Study Arms (2)

Lidocaine

EXPERIMENTAL

1% lidocaine intravenous bolus of 0.15 ml/kg over 5 min before induction of anesthesia followed by lidocaine infusion at 0.15 ml/kg/h intraoperatively will be administered. The infusion will be discontinued before the patients' transfer to the postanesthesia care unit.

Drug: Intravenous lidocaine

Control

PLACEBO COMPARATOR

0.9% NaCl intravenous bolus of 0.15 ml/kg over 5 min before induction of anesthesia followed by 0.9% NaCl infusion at 0.15 ml/kg/h intraoperatively will be administered. The infusion will be discontinued before the patients' transfer to the postanesthesia care unit.

Drug: Normal saline infusion

Interventions
