Quadratus Lumborum Block After Living Donor Kidney Transplantation
- Conditions
- Analgesia
- Interventions
- Procedure: PlaceboProcedure: Transmuscular quadratus lumborum block
- Registration Number
- NCT04908761
- Lead Sponsor
- Seoul National University Hospital
- Brief Summary
The aim of this study is to evaluate the postoperative analgesic effect of quadratus lumborum block in patient undergoing a living donor kidney transplant under general anesthesia.
- Detailed Description
The purpose of this study was to investigate whether postoperative pain is significantly reduced when TQL block was additionally performed after surgery in patients undergoing living-donor kidney transplantation. Therefore, investigator hypothesized that the analgesic consumption for postoperative 24 hours will decrease in TQL group compared to the control group. For secondary outcomes, the pain score at rest/ movement up to 48 hours after surgery, the time until the first pain reliever is requested, whether and how often rescue analgesics are administered for 48 hours, the incidence and severity of nausea and vomiting during the 48 hours after surgery, patient's satisfaction with post-pain control and the number of hospital stays were investigated. Overall, the aim of this study is to evaluate the postoperative analgesic effect of quadratus lumborum block in patients undergoing a living donor kidney transplantation under general anesthesia.

Group Intervention Description Control group Placebo For patients assigned to the control group, 30cc of 0.9% normal saline is used for Transmuscular Quadratus Lumborum block. Transmuscular quadratus lumborum block group Transmuscular quadratus lumborum block Patients assigned to the Transmuscular Quadratus Lumborum (TQL) block group receive the Transmuscular Quadratus Lumborum block in a lateral decubitus position with the surgical site facing up before recovery of general anesthesia after surgery. For the block, 30cc of 0.375% ropivacaine is used.
- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Analgesic consumption for 24 postoperative hours 24 hours postoperatively Total analgesic use for 24 hours after surgery (morphine milligram equivalents (MME))
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Analgesic consumption at postoperative 6, 12, 48 hours Analgesic consumption at postoperative 6, 12, 48 hours
Resting pain numeric rating scale(NRS) at postoperative 6, 12, 24, 48 hours Resting pain numeric rating scale(NRS) at postoperative 6, 12, 24, 48 hours. Numeric rating scare is 11-point scale from 0 to 10, The higher the number, the more severe the pain (0 is no pain at all, 10 is the most severe pain imaginable).
Numeric rating scale of pain during movement at postoperative 6, 12, 24, 48 hours Numeric rating scale of pain during movement at postoperative 6, 12, 24, 48 hours Numeric rating scare is 11-point scale from 0 to 10. The higher the number, the more severe the pain (0 is no pain at all, 10 is the most severe pain imaginable).
Time to first rescue analgesics within post-operative 24 hours Time to first rescue analgesics
Numeric rating scale at post anesthetic care unit (PACU) 30 minutes after the end of operation Numeric rating scale at post anesthetic care unit Numeric rating scare is 11-point scale from 0 to 10. The higher the number, the more severe the pain (0 is no pain at all, 10 is the most severe pain imaginable).
Rescue analgesics administration within post-operative 48 hours Rescue analgesics administration count
The incidence of post-operative nausea and vomiting within post-operative 48 hours The incidence of post-operative nausea and vomiting
Patient satisfaction with pain control At post-operative 48 hours Patient satisfaction with pain control in 11 point scale (0-10), The higher the score, the higher the patient's satisfaction.
Pattern of injectate spread on ultrasonography During procedure quadratus lumborum (QL) block Pattern of injectate spread on ultrasonography
Sensory blockade 30 minutes after the end of operation After surgery, an alcohol swab is used to evaluate the loss of cold sensation. It is evaluated by dividing into nine regions bordering the rib margin on the side of the surgery, the horizontal line passing through the umbilicus and pubis, and the vertical line of the midclavicular line, anterior axillary line, and mid axillary line. If cold sensation is the same as the opposite part of the regions, marked as 2 points, if decreased marked as 1 point, and if not sensed at all, marked as 0 point.
Quality of Recovery Questionnaire (15-item Quality of Recovery) At post-operative 48 hours Each item uses an 11-point numeric rating scale. The sum of the scores of the 15 items ranges from 0 to 150, with a high score indicating good quality of recovery.
The severity of post-operative nausea and vomiting within post-operative 48 hours The severity of post-operative nausea and vomiting, The severity of the nausea and vomitting is asked to patient and expressed as none, mild, or severe.
