TTP-PECS 阻滞联合阿片类药物节俭全身麻醉对改良根治性乳房切除术患者术后镇痛及早期恢复质量的影响

A total of 100 patients scheduled for modified radical mastectomy under general anesthesia were randomly divided into the TTP-PECS block combined with opioid-sparing general anesthesia group (TO group, n = 50) or the conventional general anesthesia group (GA group, n = 50). The TO group underwent TTP-PECS block prior to induction, using oxycodone as the analgesic during induction instead of sufentanil, no additional continuous infusion of analgesic was performed intra-operatively. Visual analogue scale (VAS) scores at rest and during movement at different time points were recorded in both groups, and the levels of T cell subsets, natural killer (NK) cells were measured before the surgery and at 24 h and 48 h after the surgery. Quality of Recovery-40 (QoR-40) scores were assessed at 24 h postoperatively, and the incidence of peri-operative adverse reactions was also observed in both groups.

Except for 48 h postoperatively, patients in the TO group had significantly lower VAS scores than those in the GA group at 2 h, 6 h, 12 h, and 24 h postoperatively at rest and during movement (P < 0.05). At 24 h and 48 h postoperatively, the expression of CD4 + T cells and the CD4 + /CD8 + ratio were significantly higher in the TO group than in the GA group (P < 0.05). The QoR-40 scale, assessed at 24 h postoperatively, showed that the TO group significantly outperformed the GA group in total scores as well as in sub-scores for emotional state, physical comfort, physical independence, psychological support, and pain (P < 0.05). In addition, systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP), and heart rate (HR) were lower at time points T1-T4 than at T0 in both groups (P < 0.05), but the differences between the two groups were not statistically significant(P > 0.05). The incidence of cough reflex during induction and postoperative nausea and vomiting were significantly lower in the TO group than in the GA group (P < 0.05). There was no statistically significant difference between the two groups in the incidence of other adverse reactions (P > 0.05).

The combination of TTP-PECS block and oxycodone-propofol opioid-sparing general anesthesia can provide superior postoperative analgesia and reduce the incidence of postoperative nausea and vomiting. It also alleviated the suppression of cellular immune function and improves the quality of early recovery in breast cancer patients. At the same time, opioid-sparing general anesthesia is a safe strategy for modified radical mastectomy. TRIAL REGISTRATION: Chinese Clinical Trial Registry; ChiCTR2200066753.
