About this study

The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of ropivacaine and lidocaine irrigation at the surgical bed on postoperative pain relief and breathing parameters in laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy.

Read the detailed description

As in any other surgery, postoperative pain control after bariatric procedure should provide comfort and early mobilisation as well as enable adequate respiratory effort.

Early ambulation is thought to reduce the risk of pressure ulcers, deep vein thrombosis and respiratory complications. In contrast, early inadequate postoperative pain management can lead to hypoxemia, hypercarbia and atelectasis. However, the use of opioids for pain control is limited in bariatric surgery due to sedative effect which might worsen obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA), a common comorbidity amongst morbidly obese patients and opioid-sparing techniques might help avoid respiratory complications.

Methods of regional analgesic are limited and might be challenging in the obese patient and although techniques such continuous epidural analgesia is possible it is not the common practise. The use of patient-controlled i.v. analgesia of opioids is limited owed to increased risk for hypoxemia and other practises such as routine local anaesthetic port site wound infiltration and systemic non-steroidal drugs are warranted.

The benefit of intra-peritoneal irrigation with local anaesthetic for abdominal pain relief after laparoscopic procedures was established in few studies. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect its' effect on postoperative pain relief and breathing parameters in laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy.By pain score

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. The aim of the study is to evaluate the effect of local irrigation with ropivacaine vs. Lidocaine vs. Saline of surgical bed in sleeve gastrectomy on post operative pain

    measuring the score of pain using visual analog score for pain during the post-operative timemeasuring the number of times pain-control durg were given during the post-operate time

    Measured: 1 year

Contact Nissim Geron, MD (972-4-6652667, ngeron@poria.health.gov.il), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

The aim of the study is to evaluate the effect of local irrigation with ropivacaine vs. Lidocaine vs. Saline of surgical bed in sleeve gastrectomy on post operative pain (time frame: 1 year). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
