Conditions

Shoulder Pain

Brief summary

The purpose of this study is to assess shoulder pain at rest (average over the last 24 hours) assessed by visual analogue scale from 0 to 100mm on Day 1.

Detailed description

This is an interventional, comparative, controlled, randomized, single-blind study (the patient will be blinded to the result of the randomization, unlike the investigator) and single-center. Comparative prospective cohort study of laparoscopic surgery with the addition of specific non-surgical interventions aimed at preventing postoperative shoulder pain (use of local intraperitoneal anesthetics, alveolar recruitment maneuver and compression maneuver abdominal) versus without specific interventions aimed at preventing post-operative shoulder pain. All patients will benefit from Transversus Abdominis Plane block with multimodal analgesia provided in the usual setting of laparoscopic surgery.

Interventions

PROCEDUREDigestive or gynecological surgery by laparoscopy

Digestive or gynecological surgery by laparoscopy with a Transversus abdominis plane block before the incision and systematic standardized multimodal analgesia

Masking description

The patient will be blinded to the result of the randomization, unlike the investigator.

Intervention model description

Study patients will be divided into 2 arms (1:1) and will benefit from one of the following procedures: * Arm A (experimental): Overall procedure = standard procedure + local intraperitoneal anesthetics + alveolar recruitment maneuver + abdominal compression maneuver. * Arm B (control): Standard procedure.

Shoulder pain at rest assessed by visual analog scale1 dayShoulder pain at rest (average over the last 24 hours) assessed by visual analog scale from 0 to 100mm. ANCOVA (Analysis of Covariance) analysis will be applied to compare the mean shoulder pain visual analog scal (0 to 100 mm) between the groups, adjusted to the baseline value.
