简要总结
The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of a single preoperative high-dose steroid injection on complications in the immediate postoperative phase after periacetabular osteotomy. Primary outcome is the proportion of patients who have moderate to severe postoperative pain in the post anaesthesia care unit. Secondary outcomes are organspecific complications in the post anaesthesia phase, pain and nausea the first 5 days, wound infection and readmissions the first 30 days after surgery.
The investigators hypothesize that the frequency of moderate to severe pain and organspecific complications in the post anaesthesia care unit will be lower among patients receiving high dose dexamethasone. The investigators hypothesize, that there will be no difference in wound infections or readmissions.
详细描述
Post-surgery, patients are traditionally observed and treated in post-anesthesia care units (PACU) until they are discharged to the ward (or directly home) assessed by standardized international discharge criteria.
The research project "Why in PACU?" (Rigshospitalet, Denmark), has since the beginning of 2016 systematically collected and analyzed procedure-related complications in the recovery phase. The complications include pain, nausea/vomiting, circulatory and respiratory problems, orthostatic intolerance and cognitive disorders. Common to all the above-mentioned post-operative problems are the possible links to the inflammatory response caused by the surgical trauma.
Glucocorticoids can in this context be central for the reduction of acute postoperative organ dysfunctions, caused by the anti-inflammatory effect. In a number of different surgical procedures, single dose, pre-operative glucocorticoids have been shown to reduce post-operative nausea and vomiting (PONV), acute pain and need of opioids as well as accelerate the convalescence.
Meta-analyses also showed that single-dose administration of glucocorticoids (methylprednisolone and dexamethasone) for surgical patients is safe as opposed to long-term treatment.
The "Why in PACU?" database shows that 70 % of patients experience moderate to severe pain in the immediate postoperative phase. This is despite a multimodal analgesic regime with preoperative analgesics and local analgesic catheter in the surgical site.
