Conditions
Brief summary
Pre-clinical studies have shown that experimental diabetes induces hyperalgesia in rodents. Additionally, diabetic patients report more postoperative pain after lumbar spine surgery or total abdominal hysterectomy than non-diabetic patients. Interestingly, some studies indicate that cholelithiasis is three times more frequent in diabetic than in non-diabetics patients. However, the comparison of postoperative pain after cholecystectomy between diabetic and non-diabetic patients remains unknown. Thus, the primary aim was evaluate the intensity of postoperative acute pain in diabetic patients undergoing open cholecystectomy.
Interventions
Patients without or with type 2 diabetes diagnosed with chronic cholecystitis and scheduled for elective open cholecystectomy will be studied. All patients will receive a general anaesthetic and maintained with sevoflurane 1.5% and fentanyl 5 µg/kg. Patients also receive diclofenac 75 mg i.v. once before the surgical incision. Haemodynamic variables were defined as: hypotension (MAP < 60 mmHg), hypertension (MAP > 100 mmHg), bradycardia (heart rate < 40 beats/min) and tachycardia (heart rate > 90 beats/min). After completion of the surgical procedure (final suture) and emergence from anaesthesia, all patients will be transferred to the recovery room. Duration of surgery was defined as the time from skin incision to completion of skin suturing. Onset of postoperative pain was defined as the time from end of anaesthesia until presence of any postoperative pain score. Pain management will be immediately after assessment according to institutional standards. Postoperative pain will be evaluated by using a 0–10 numerical rating scale (NRS) (0 = no pain and 10 = worst pain imaginable), and onset of postoperative pain will be defined as the time from end of anaesthesia until presence of any postoperative pain score. Each participants will be observed for at least 8 hours post-surgery,
