Overview

Brief Summary

Purpose:

  1. To compare the incidence of postoperative hyperalgesia induced by remifentanil in patients undergoing gynecological laparoscopic surgery in plateau and plain areas
  2. To compare the peri-operative analgesic requirements of patients in plain and plateau areas

Detailed Description

Our research group has been committed to the research of remifentanil-induced hyperalgesia for a long time. In the previous study, it was found that intraoperative infusion of remifentanil (0.3ug/kg•min) \>1h can lead to remifentanil-induced hyperalgesia and the incidence rate is relative high in the plain area. Due to the long-term low pressure and hypoxia of people living in plateau areas, a series of changes will occur in the respiratory and circulatory systems, and their anesthesia management needs to be adjusted accordingly. However, there is no relevant research on whether or not hyperalgesia occurs in people in plateau areas (altitude level \>3000 meters). Therefore, this study hopes to compare the incidence and degree of remifentanil-induced hyperalgesia after gynecological laparoscopic surgery in plain areas and plateau areas.

Arms & Interventions

Remifentanil-analgesia in plateau area patients

Remifentanil 0.3ug/kg/min is intravenously administrated to maintain intraoperative analgesia in plateau area patients.

Intervention: plateau areas

Sufentanil-analgesia in plain area patients

Sufentanil 0.3 μg/kg is intravenously administrated to maintain intraoperative analgesia in plain area patients.

Intervention: Sufentanil injection

Sufentanil-analgesia in plain area patients

Sufentanil 0.3 μg/kg is intravenously administrated to maintain intraoperative analgesia in plain area patients.

Intervention: plain areas

Remifentanil-analgesia in plain area patients

Remifentanil 0.3ug/kg/min is intravenously administrated to maintain intraoperative analgesia in plain area patients.

Intervention: Remifentanil Hydrochloride

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

Mechanical Hyperalgesia Threshold on the Dominant Inner Forearm

Time Frame: 48 hours after surgery

The mechanical hyperalgesia threshold was defined as the lowest force (g) necessary to bend a Von Frey filament, which was perceived to be painful by the patient and measured by Von Frey filament after surgery

Secondary Outcomes

  • Pain Score (NRS)(48 hours after surgery)
  • Normalized Area of Hyperalgesia Around the Incision(48 hours after surgery)
  • Mechanical hyperalgesia threshold around the incision(48 hours after surgery)
  • Time of First Postoperative Analgesic Requirement(1 hour after surgery)
  • Total Dose of First Postoperative Analgesic Requirement(1 hour after surgery)
  • Cumulative Hydromorphone Consumption(48 hours after surgery)
  • Occurrence of Side Effects(48 hours after surgery)
