简要总结
Dexmedetomidine has demonstrated benefits both in sedation, and post-operative pain control, with less respiratory depression than other common sedatives. Traditionally, dexmedetomidine has been used with a large loading dose and infusion, which has been known to cause dose-dependent negative side-effects (Abdallah et al., 2013). Single dose dexmedetomidine produces less negative side-effects, but still effective sedation and reduced post-operative pain (Jung et al., 2013). There is evidence for its benefits with general anesthesia but only a few studies exist investigating its benefits when administered for sedation purposes with spinal anesthesia, and no studies primarily examine post-operative opioid consumption. The investigators hypothesize that single dose dexmedetomidine for procedural sedation will reduce opioid consumption after total knee arthroplasty (TKA).
详细描述
The investigators plan a randomized control trial.
Sample. Based on a literature and a previous study by the investigators team (RQHR #13-80/USask Bio #13-232), average reduction in opioid consumption for dexmedetomidine bolus and infusion is 50%. Less data exists for single dose. However two randomized control trials (Kaya et al., 2010; Hong et al., 2012) reduced consumption frequency by 55% and 45%, using 0.5ug/kg and 1.0ug/kg respectively. A meta-analysis demonstrated a mean difference of -10mg vs -21mg in opioid consumption for bolus studies vs bolus and infusion studies at 24 hours (Schnabel et. al 2013). A reduction of 50% was recently seen in a study conducted earlier by the investigators center at 24hours with a bolus and infusion (RQHR #13-80/USask Bio #13-232). An expected Patient Controlled Analgesia (PCA) consumption at 24hours for total knee arthroplasty is 27mg with a standard deviation of 19mg (Paul et. al, 2013). Using this information, it was decided 40% reduction in opioid consumption at 24hours could be expected and represent a clinically significant result. Subsequent power calculation required a sample size of 50 (25 per arm) to demonstrate a 40% reduction in opioid consumption at 24 hours, with a study power of 80% and P-value under 0.05.
Ethics. Ethics approval was obtained from the University of Saskatchewan Biomedical Research Ethics Board, and from the Regina Qu'Appelle Health Region Research Ethics Board.
Patients will be identified by one of the investigators through the daily surgical slate to which they already have access for patient care.
Informed written consent will be obtained from 50 patients on the Same-Day Admission Unit by one of the investigators not involved in the patient's care.
