A Randomized, Double-Blinded Comparison of Intrathecal Morphine, Sufentanil and their Combination versus IV Morphine Patient-Controlled Analgesia for Postthoracotomy Pain

Abstract: As compared with IV patient-controlled analgesia, intrathecal morphine or combined sufentanil and morphine provided superior postoperative pain relief both at rest (11 h) and on coughing (8 h) than did IV patient-controlled analgesia morphine alone. IV morphine requirement was decreased during the first postoperative day after posterolateral thoracotomy.

“…This study was powered to detect a sparing effect on intraoperative intravenous sufentanil consumption based on Liu's et al study. 3 However, the main difference is that we used a smaller dose of ITS compared to Liu's report (10 vs 50 µg). We chose this dose based on two arguments.…”

“…One can argue that 10 µg ITS was insufficient in our study, but the combination of 50 µg ITS and 0.5 mg ITM were not superior to ITM alone in thoracic surgery, even though this study was probably underpowered (ten patients per group). 3 Again, it is possible that a ceiling effect similar to the one observed in volunteers 22 or in the obstetrical setting 21 may also exist for ITS. A properly powered dose-response study investigating ITS combinations to ITM in colorectal surgery could answer this question.…”

“…La [17][18][19] Dans cette étude, les concentrations de bupivacaïne et de fentanyl utilisées pour la péridurale sont celles recommandées dans la littérature : la bupivacaïne à 0,1 % associée au fentanyl 2 µg·mL -1 . Pour la rachianalgésie les doses de morphine intrathécale recommandées varient selon le site opératoire : 0,1 à 0,3 mg pour les interventions sous-ombilicales, 0,3 mg pour les interventions sus-ombilicales et 0,5 mg pour les interventions portant sur le thorax.…”
