Influence of intraoperative opioid on postoperative pain and pulmonary function after laparoscopic gastric banding: remifentanil TCI vs sufentanil TCI in morbid obesity

Abstract: As few differences occurred in the postoperative period, the theoretical advantage of remifentanil over the longer acting sufentanil can be questioned when using TCI technology.

“…We also did not compare the requirement for postoperative analgesia/ opioids, because Gunaydin and colleagues 28 showed that FVC and FEV1 did not change, not even for constant opioid administration in alert patients. This is also confirmed by results reported by others, 29 who found no difference in postoperative lung function after desflurane/remifentanil anaesthesia or desflurane/sufentanil anaesthesia, provided that spirometry was performed at a similar VAS score after administration of various morphine doses.…”

“…These adverse effects may be mitigated by avoiding or minimizing opioid dosages or by utilizing a rapidly metabolized opioid such as remifentanil. 6 Continuous infusion of subhypnotic doses of propofol has been used successfully to prevent and treat PONV. 7,8 Infusion of propofol in combination with remifentanil has been demonstrated to decrease the incidence of PONV in comparison to an infusion of remifentanil alone.…”

“…[50] Similarly, De Baerdemaeker and colleagues showed that remifentanil offered no significant advantages in recovery profile compared to sufentanil in obese subjects undergoing laparoscopic gastric banding. [51] In addition, the subjects given remifentanil had higher opioid consumption in the immediate postoperative period. Despite remifentanil’s forgiving termination of effect, its use may be questioned as an adjunct to general anesthesia in obese subjects undergoing bariatric surgery.…”
