Dexmedetomidine was administered in the 'selector' channel and fentanyl in the 'basic & bolus' channel of dual channel intravenous patient-controlled analgesia (IV-PCA) and the amount of opioid consumption was compared. In addition, intensity of pain, postoperative nausea/vomiting, and postoperative delirium was evaluated.
Bellomic® (Cebika, Uiwang-si, Gyeonggi-do, South Korea), a new IV-PCA device consisting of two separate drug pump channels, can be used in various ways and is expanding its scope of use. Unlike conventional IV-PCA devices, which have been used to mix and administer all drugs in one channel, the device can inject drugs separately in two channels. One channel (Selector & Bolus) allows the patient to control whether to take additional bolus medication by pressing the button with adjustable continuous infusion, while the other channel (Continuous) allows constant rate continuous infusion.
Dexmedetomidine is a selective alpha-2 agonist, which is widely used in intensive care unit management, surgery, and various procedures because it has the advantage of less respiratory suppression along with sedation/anesthesia and pain effects. It has been previously reported that postoperative pain, morphine usage, and nausea/vomiting can be reduced when used during/after surgery in addition to general anesthetic drugs. However, in terms of major abdominal surgery, there is no research related to the use of dexmedetomidine after surgery, even though a large amount of opioid agents are required due to severe acute pain.
Thus, the investigators planned a randomized controlled trial to investigate the effectiveness dexmedetomidine using dual-chamber IV-PCA.
