Evaluation of Plasma Concentrations of Intravenous Lidocaine and Epidural Ropivacaine When Used in Combination in Major Abdominal Surgery
In Brief
A Phase 4 clinical trial evaluating Blood sample, Lidocain, and 1 other intervention for Abdominal Surgery by Laparotomy and 3 related conditions. Completed, enrolled 51 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
Thoracic epidural analgesia (TEA) is the gold standard analgesia of the laparotomy in major abdominal surgery and can be associated with intravenous lidocaine or subtituted by intravenous lidocaine when TEA is contraindicated and in order to reduce the use of the morphinics in the perioperative period. Side effects can be paralytic ileus or nausea and vomiting and delay the enhanced recovery after surgery. Intravenous lidocaine and TEA share several properties like anti hyperalgesia, anti inflammatory effect, intestinal process, anti tumoral effect… which suggests an additive effect of their combination that was not studied yet.

Timeline
Interventions
Lidocaine blood sample 30 min before the end of the surgery Lidocaine blood sample at the end of the infusion lidocaine and ropivacaine blood sample 2 h after the ropivacaine infusion of the TEA Ropivacaine blood sample 24h after the infusion of the TEA
Lidocaine will be injected during the anaesthetic induction and infused until the surgical closure (30 minutes before the end) The occurrence of adverse events will be monitor by a physical examination and blood samples of lidocainemia and ropivacainemia in the perioperative period.
Lidocaine will be injected during the anaesthetic induction and infused until the surgical closure (30 minutes before the end), then ropivacaine will be injected in the TEA at the same time and infused during 24h. The occurrence of adverse events will be monitor by a physical examination and blood samples of lidocainemia and ropivacainemia in the perioperative period.
