Brief Summary

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

Many studies have confirmed the analgesic effect of intravenous infusion of lidocaine in abdominal surgery. Transversus abdominis plane (TAP) block is also often recommended for abdominal surgery. Ropivacaine TAP block and intravenous lidocaine infusion are important components of multimodal analgesia for colorectal surgery. However, both of them are the local anesthetics and the safety of combination is unknown, so investigators design the study to explore the safety of the synergistic application of ropivacaine TAP block and intravenous lidocaine infusion in patients undergoing colorectal surgery.

Allocation Method

NA

Intervention Model

SEQUENTIAL

Interventional Study Model: Sequential Assignment According to the principle of "the 3+3 design", 3 dose groups with 3 patients in each dose group will be set up. If no dose limited toxicity (DLT) is observed in three groups, a total of 9 patients will be included. If DLT is present in one dose group during dose escalation, 3 cases are amplified in this dose group; if no DLT is observed in 3 cases of amplification, proceed to the next dose group, and so on, up to 18 patients. DLT is defined as local anesthetic systemic toxicity. If blood samples cannot be obtained for any reasons, new patients will be recruited until there are at least 3 patients in each group with blood samples at every time point .

Study Groups

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

ropivacaine

Patients will receive a TAP block using 1.5 mg/kg, 2.0 mg/kg or 2.5 mg/kg of ropivacaine. If there is no LAST (local anesthetic systemic toxicity) in the three subjects of 1.5 mg/kg group, the next three patients will receive 2.0 mg/kg of ropivacaine. Another three patients will receive 2.5 mg/kg of ropivacaine if there is no LAST in the three subjects of 2.0 mg/kg group. All subjects will be administered an i.v. bolus of lidocaine 2.0 mg/kg (given as an infusion for 10 min) after anaesthesia induction, then continuous infusion at 2 mg/kg/h until the end of surgery.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Ropivacaine Hydrochloride 10 MG/ML [Naropin]

Intervention Type DRUG

According to the specified dosage, dilute 1% ropivacaine to 0.2% and inject 1/2 of the total amount on each side.
