Brief summary
Although pain is a common complication of endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD), management strategies are inadequate. bupivacaine is used for visceral pain control in chronic pain and in pain associated with surgery in clinical practice. Further, triamcinolone, a type of steroid, is often mixed with bupivacaine to lengthen the analgesic effect. The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of topical bupivacaine and triamcinolone acetonide for abdominal pain relief and as a potential method of pain control after ESD for gastric neoplasia. We hypothesized that topical bupivacaine and/or triamcinolone acetonide injection after ESD would be effective for pain relief. For this, we designed randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial. Eligible patients with early gastric neoplasm were randomized into one of three groups: bupivacaine (BV) only, bupivacaine with triamcinolone (BV-TA), or placebo. To evaluate the pain after ESD, the Present Pain Intensity (PPI) score and the Short-Form McGill Pain Questionnaire (SF-MPQ) were used to evaluate pain at 0, 6, 12 and 24 h after ESD.
Interventions
All patients undergo endoscopic submucosal dissection. The local injection was performed using 15 ml saline just before the ESD was finished. It was delivered through the endoscopy suite and injected into the cautery ulcer base in aliquots of 1 mL at equal intervals (1 cm apart). The number of injections per patient was dependent on the size of resection.
All patients undergo endoscopic submucosal dissection. The local injection was performed using a mixture of 10 ml bupivacaine (total 50 mg) and 5 ml saline just before the ESD was finished. It was delivered through the endoscopy suite and injected into the cautery ulcer base in aliquots of 1 mL at equal intervals (1 cm apart). The number of injections per patient was dependent on the size of resection.
