Effect of Intravenous Lidocaine Infusion on Postoperative Pulmonary Complications in Patients Undergoing Minimally Invasive Esophagectomy: a Double-center, Double-blind, Randomized Controlled Trial
Effect of Intravenous Lidocaine Infusion on Postoperative Pulmonary Complications in Patients Undergoing Minimally Invasive Esophagectomy: a Double-center, Double-blind, Randomized Controlled Trial
The goal of this double-center, double-blind, randomized controlled clinical trial is to compare the effect of intravenous lidocaine infusion on postoperative pulmonary complications in patients undergoing minimally invasive esophagectomy. The main question it aims to answer are whether intravenous lidocaine reduce postoperative pulmonary complications in patients undergoing minimally invasive esophagectomy. Participants will be given intravenous lidocaine infusion in lidocaine group or placebo in control group.
Inclusion Criteria:
Patients between 18 and 85 years of age with a recent schedule for MIE are screened for this study. Patients who show clear consciousness and ASA status I - III will be included as eligible participants.
Exclusion Criteria:
The exclusion criteria are as follows: patients with severe psychiatric disorders, such as schizophrenia, depression, dementia, etc.; severe hepatic insufficiency (concentration of glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase, glutamic pyruvic transaminase or bilirubin ≥2.5 times the upper limit of normal); renal impairment (creatinine clearance <60 mL/min); allergy to amide local anesthetics; history of seizures; presence of II/III atrioventricular block; patients with severe sinus bradycardia or sick sinus syndrome; patients with Adams-Stokes syndrome or pre-excitation syndrome; intracardiac block (e.g. complete bundle branch block, atrioventricular block); serum potassium ion concentration below 2.5 or above 5.0 mmol/L; PH>7.55 or PH<7.2. Patients will be discontinued if any of the following situations occur: the patient has an allergic reaction, severe cardiovascular events that cannot be managed with symptomatic treatment, and the patient is unwilling to continue the study.
