Brief Summary

Patients diagnosed with Parkinson's disease (PD) undergoing deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) have a higher risk of perioperative complications and postoperative pain will affect quality of recovery (QoR) resulting in longer hospitalization time and higher hospital costs. Scalp nerve block (SNB) combined with intercostal nerve block (ICNB)can alleviate postoperative pain while effect of them on postoperative recovery quality of patients diagnosed with PD was unclear. Therefore, the investigators conducted a randomized controlled trails to provide a novel method for enhanced recovery and early prevention and treatment of acute pain after DBS surgery.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • The 15-item QoR score

    The 15-item QoR score is used to asses quality of recovery after surgery which ranges 0-150 and higher QoR-15 scores indicate better postoperative recovery

    24 hour after surgery

Secondary Outcomes (4)

  • The 15-item QoR score

    72 hour and 1 month after surgery

  • The NRS score

    before discharge from PACU, at 24 hour, 72 hour and 1 month after surgery

  • The patients with PONV

    24 hour after surgery

  • Consumption of opioid

    during operation

Study Arms (2)

SNB group

EXPERIMENTAL

patients in the SNB group will receive general anesthesia combined with scalp nerve block and intercostal nerve block with 0.5% ropivacaine.

Other: scalp nerve block combined with intercostal nerve block using 0.5% ropivacaine

control group

NO INTERVENTION

patients in control group will receive general anesthesia without nerve block.

Interventions

Participants randomized to the SNB group will receive general anesthesia combined with scalp nerve block and intercostal nerve block with 0.5% ropivacaine, which was performed exclusively by an attending anesthesiologist.An attending anesthesiologist will select the site of SNB based on the surgical incision site. Scalp nerve was blocked including greater occipital nerve (2-3ml), superficial temporal nerve (2-3ml), trochlear nerve (2-3ml) and supraorbital nerve (2-3ml). The total volume in scalp nerve block will not exceed 10 ml.Ultrasound-guided unilateral ICNB will be performed at the level of T4-T5 next to the sternum.10-15ml of 0.5% ropivacaine will be injected into the intercostal spaces where incision locates after negative aspiration.

SNB group
