NCT05594407

Brief Summary

The aim of this double blind randomized 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 remifentanil analgesia in lumbar spine surgery

    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"

  • time to first request for analgesia

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

  • morphine consumption in Post-Anesthesia Care Unit (PACU)

    immediately postoperatively

    48 hours postoperatively

  • +2 more secondary outcomes

Study Arms (2)

dexmedetomidine-ketamine-lidocaine (DKL) group

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

combination of dexmedetomidine, ketamine and lidocaine in one syringe

Drug: dexmedetomidine-ketamine-lidocaine

remifentanil group

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

syringe of remifentanil

Drug: Remifentanil

Interventions

In the DKL group, patients will be administered in a total volume of 20 mL,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: DKL group

In the Remifentanil group, patients will be administered in a total volume of 20 mL, 2 mcg/kg of fentanyl. As maintenance, they will be receiving 1 mL/10kg/h of a remifentanil solution

Also known as: Remifentanil group
