Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The aim of the study is to evaluate traditional analgesic therapy after abdominal hysterectomy with single infiltration of local anesthetics in the surgical area at the end of surgery.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The study is a controlled, double blind, prospective, randomized and performed at Sahlgrenska University Hospital in Goteborg, Sweden. The injectant mixture consists of 300 mg ropivacaine mixed with 30 mg ketorolac and 0.5 mg epinephrine. Total volume of the solution is 156 ml. The normal saline injection is used in the control group in the same manner as in the LIA group. The parameters which would be evaluated are consumption of morphine, pain intensity and side effects.

The primary objective is to evaluate whether local infiltration analgesia (LIA) into the operating field will reduce morphine consumption during the first 24 postoperative hours in patients undergoing abdominal hysterectomy (AH).

Secondary end-points are pain intensity, incidence of nausea and vomiting, sedation intensity.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Group P

Group P (Placebo) receives a local infiltration of saline in the operating field and ketorolac iv.

In Group P the injectant consists of saline, total volume 156 mL. This is infiltrated by the surgeon into the soft tissue of the vagina, tubosacral and rotundum ligaments, in the abdominal fascia and subcutaneous at the end of surgery. Ketorolac 30 mg (1 mL) is also injected iv.

Group A

Group A (Active) receives a local infiltration of ropivacaine, ketorolac and epinephrine in the operating field and saline iv.

Drug: ropivacaine, ketorelac and epinephrine

In Group A the injectant mixture consists of ropivacaine 300 mg mixed with 30 mg ketorolac and 0.5 mg epinephrine, total volume 156 mL. This mixture is infiltrated by the surgeon into the soft tissue of the vagina, tubosacral and rotundum ligaments, in the abdominal fascia and subcutaneous at the end of surgery. One mL saline is also injected iv.
