General anesthesia combined subcostal transversus abdominis plane (TAP)or rectus sheath block (RSB)can significantly reduce the use of opiates in minimally invasive surgery.However, similar reduction was not observed in open abdominal surgery during perioperative period.Therefore, the investigators should try to improve the blocking methods to reduce the side effects of a large number of opiates. Based on the range and its analgesic effect of various nerve block is obviously related to the injection site of local anesthetics, this randomized controlled study hypothesized that modified RSB under the guidance of surgical incision may be more effective in inhibiting the harmful stimulation of surgery.
For abdominal cancer surgery with midline incision, subcostal transversus abdominis plane or rectus sheath block combined with general anesthesia was more effective in reducing pain scores and opioid consumption compared with general anesthesia alone. However, there was no statistically significant difference in supplementary fentanyl during operation. Besides adequate pain relief around incisions, blunting visceral traction response has also an important role in hemodynamic stability.With the evidences for a potential mechanism for the antinociceptive effects of propofol on visceral nociception and dexmedetomidine combined with oxycodone can provide good visceral analgesia, the investigators supposed that visceral nociception was well suppressed by adequate antinociceptive drugs. The propofol combination with dexmedetomidine may had significant effect on the reduction of the sympathoadrenergic tone with decrease of blood pressure and heart rate.

| Label | Type | Description | Intervention Names |
|---|---|---|---|
| General anesthesia | Sham Comparator | Basal blood pressure and heart rate were recorded after midazolam administration of 0.02 mg/kg. Anesthesia was induced with sufentanil 0.4 μg/kg and propofol 2-2.5 mg/kg, IV route. An IV bolus of cisatracurium 0.1 mg/kg IV was given to facilitate tracheal intubation. Anesthesia was maintained with propofol 4-6 mg/kg/h combined dexmedetomidine 0.2 μg/kg/h(after 0.2 μg/kg/h loading dose within 15min)by bispectral index (BIS) 40-60 and additional bolus doses of remifentanil 0.2-0.5 μg/kg/min to keep arterial pressure values around 20% below baseline values. Sufentanil 0.1-0.2 μg/kg and flurbiprofen 100mg was administrated once the abdomen was closed, then a patient controlled analgesia pump was used. No RSB was performed. |
|
| Subcostal TAP combined with General anesthesia | Experimental | After induction, TAP was performed. The transversus abdominis plane is imaged with the ultrasound probe obliquely on the upper abdominal wall, along the subcostal margin near the midline.The needle tip was advanced to the desired position where 20 mL 0.375%ropivacaine(Dexamethasone 5mg was added)were injected.The technique is repeated on the opposite side. Anesthesia method and management was same as general anesthesia group. |
|
| Modified RSB combined with General anesthesia | Experimental | After induction, Modified RSB was performed based on midline incision-guided. The rectus muscle is imaged with the ultrasound probe in a transverse orientation below the xiphisternum and above the umbilicus.The needle tip was advanced to the two desired position where 10 mL ropivacaine 0.375% were injected causing hydrodissection of the rectus muscle away from the posterior rectus sheath.The technique is repeated on the opposite side.Anesthesia method and management was same as general anesthesia group. |
