Brief Summary

To explore the application of transcutaneous electrical acupoint stimulation combined with transverse abdominis plane block in Laparoscopic cholecystectomy, in order to reduce postoperative pain and promote postoperative recovery.

Detailed Description

Percutaneous electrical acupoint stimulation has been applied in preoperative prophylaxis, intraoperative anesthesia and postoperative rehabilitation, and can reduce perioperative anxiety, improve the efficacy of preoperative smoking cessation and alcohol abstinence, and shorten the preoperative fasting time. During surgery, it can reduce the amount of anesthetic drugs, anti-inflammatory and anti-stress effects, stabilize circulation, and protect important organs; After surgery, improve the speed and quality of wake-up of patients, promote the recovery of maintenance function, regulate immune function, and reduce postoperative adverse reactions such as postoperative pain, postoperative nausea and vomiting, postoperative urinary retention, etc. As one of the common nerve blocks, transverse abdominis block is used clinically, and its main function is to relieve perioperative pain and reduce the amount of traumatic stress and analgesic drugs

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
VAS(visual analogue scale) scoreAfter the operation 48hour

Postoperative pain is assessed after surgery by using visual analogue scoring. A score to assess pain, use a swimming ruler about 10 cm long, marked with 10 scales on one side, with "0" and "10" ends at each end, 0 points means no pain, and 10 points represent the most severe pain that is unbearable.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Concentration of serum cortisolthe day before surgery; When entering the operating room; 10minutes after peeling; 5 minutes after the operation; The first day after surgery

Perioperative venous blood was drawn to detect serum cortisol

Postoperative nausea and vomitingThe day before surgery; After the operation 24hours, 48hours

After surgery, patients are asked about nausea and vomiting. Postoperative nausea and vomiting is assessed after surgery by using visual analogue scoring. Using a swimming ruler about 10 cm long, marked with 10 scales on one side, with "0" and "10" ends at each end, 0 points means no nausea and vomiting, and 10 points represent the most severe nausea and vomiting that is unbearable.

Early postoperative recovery of qualityThe day before surgery; After the operation 24hours, 48hours

The quality of early postoperative recovery was assessed using The Quality of Recovery-15 scale after surgery, scores range from 0 (QoR very poor) to 150 (QoR excellent), with higher scores representing better quality of recovery

Exhaust and bowel movementsAfter the operation 24hours, 48hours

Record the time of the patient's first exhaust bowel movement after surgery

Concentration of serum interleukin-6the day before surgery; When entering the operating room; 10minutes after peeling; 5 minutes after the operation; The first day after surgery

Perioperative venous blood was drawn to detect serum interleukin-6

Concentration of serum C-reactive proteinthe day before surgery; When entering the operating room; 10minutes after peeling; 5 minutes after the operation; The first day after surgery

Perioperative venous blood was drawn to detect serum C-reactive protein
