The Efficacy and Safety of Liposomal Bupivacaine for Transversus Abdominis Plane Block in Relieving Postoperative Pain After Laparoscopic Surgery

Официальное название

The Efficacy and Safety of Liposomal Bupivacaine Plus Bupivacaine Transversus Abdominis Plane Block for Postoperative Pain in Patients Undergoing Laparoscopic Surgery:A Multi-Center Randomized Controlled Trial

Обзор

Laparoscopic surgery has become the preferred approach for abdominal surgical interventions due to its advantages of minimal invasiveness, rapid recovery, and reduced complication rates. Despite its minimally invasive nature, postoperative pain persists and adversely affects patient recovery. In the absence of effective pain management, acute pain may progress to chronic pain. Although opioids provide reliable analgesic effects, their associated adverse reactions limit their application following minimally invasive procedures. Regional analgesia serves as the cornerstone of multimodal analgesia, and ultrasound-guided nerve block techniques have become increasingly refined. Ultrasound-guided transversus abdominis plane block(TAPB) generally fulfills intraoperative and postoperative analgesic requirements for laparoscopic surgeries by inhibiting the transmission of nociceptive stimuli in the targeted region, thereby aiding in the prevention of central sensitization. Conventional TAPB utilize local anesthetics, which demonstrate excellent efficacy in alleviating incisional pain. However, the short duration of analgesia provided by conventional local anesthetics significantly compromises their clinical utility.Liposomal bupivacaine(LB) is a novel, long-acting, sustained-release amide-type local anesthetic, providing localized analgesic effects for up to 72 hours.However, its efficacy and safety in laparoscopic surgery not yet been fully validated. Based on this premise, the present study aims to evaluate and compare the clinical outcomes of Ultrasound-guided TAPB utilizing liposomal bupivacaine plus bupivacaine for postoperative pain management in patients undergoing laparoscopic surgery.

Вмешательства

• Препарат Bupivacaine hydrochloride
  Prior to surgical incision, the Doppler ultrasound-guided injection technique will be employed. A bilateral transverse abdominis plane block(TAPB) will be performed using a 22-gauge block needle, with 20 mL of 0.25% bupivacaine administered per side. The patient-controlled analgesia (PCA) pump solution consists of 100 μg sufentanil and 16 mg ondansetron diluted with normal saline to a total volume of 100 mL. Postoperatively, patients may self-administer a 2-mL bolus per demand, with a lockout in
