Brief Summary

Kidney transplant is considered as a moderate painful surgery. Unfortunately, patients with chronic kidney disease are not able to degrade opioid drugs and are therefore most likely to be subjected to the secondary effects of their consumption. Current strategies aim to find pain relief substitutes in order to decrease the use of opioids, specially after surgery, during patient recovery. Loco-regional analgesia consists of administering local anesthesic directly in specific nerves and is being used in several surgical procedures. In various abdominal surgeries, a loco-regional analgesia called "tranversus abdominis Plane Block" has been associated with decreased morphine consumption and better post-operative conditions. In kidney transplant, the definitive efficacy of this loco-regional analgesia is not established, due to controversial clinical results. The goal of our study is to test the analgesia advantage of a variant of the Tranversus Abdominis Plane Block, called Quadratus lumborum block, which targets a muscle called quadratus lumborum, in association with general anesthesia, on post-surgery recovery and opioid intake.

Study Arms (2)

Quadratus lumborum block (QLB) group

EXPERIMENTAL
Procedure: efficacy of quadratus lumborum block in post-operative analgesia in kidney transplant surgery

Control group

ACTIVE COMPARATOR
Procedure: general anesthesia

Interventions

no premedication for anxiolytic purposes before surgery. Cimetidin 200mg can be administrated for Mendelson syndrome prevention. After general anesthesia induction, echo-guided quadratus lumborum block is performed by applying 20ml of levobupivacaine

Quadratus lumborum block (QLB) group

general anesthesia is the current technique for kidney transplant surgery. The protocol involves the combination of several drugs: Propofol, Remifentanil, Ketamin, Atracurium or Cisatracurium. Curarization monitoring is systematic.

Control group
