Brief summary
To investigate the effect of preemptive analgesia with tartaric acid butorphanol on postoperative pain in gynecological laparoscopy under total intravenous anesthesia with remifentanil.This randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial enrolled 60 patients undergoing elective gynaecological laparoscopy. The patients were divided into two groups: the butorphanol group (n = 30) and the control group (n = 29). Both groups received TIVA with propofol and remifentanil. Observing two groups of patients on the visual analog scale, the total consumption of rescue analogies, and the confidence of postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV), and the patient satisfaction score.
Detailed description
To investigate the effect of preemptive analgesia with tartaric acid butorphanol on postoperative pain in gynecological laparoscopy under total intravenous anesthesia with remifentanil.This randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial enrolled 60 patients undergoing elective gynaecological laparoscopy. The patients were divided into two groups: the butorphanol group (n = 30), who received 0.02 mg/kg of tartaric acid butorphanol intravenously 30 minutes prior to anaesthesia induction, and the control group (n = 29), who received the same volume of normal saline. Both groups received TIVA with propofol and remifentanil. The primary outcome was the visual analogue scale (VAS) score for pain at rest and on movement at 1, 2, 4, 6, 12 and 24 hours after surgery. The secondary outcomes were the total consumption of rescue analgesics, the incidence and severity of postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV), and the patient satisfaction score.
Interventions
The group received 0.02 mg/kg tartaric acid butorphanol intravenously over 5 minutes, 30 minutes before anaesthesia induction
The group received 0.02 mg/kg normal saline intravenously over 5 minutes, 30 minutes before anaesthesia induction
Anaesthesia was induced with 2 mg/kg propofol and 0.6 μg/kg remifentanil and maintained with a target-controlled infusion (TCI) of propofol and remifentanil, using the Marsh and Minto models, respectively.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Visual analogue scale ( VAS ) scores for pain | at 1 hour after surgery | Pain was assessed at 1 hour to evaluate immediate postoperative pain while allowing time to recover from anaesthesia. |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| the total rescue analgesic consumption (mg) | within 24 hours after surgery | The total rescue analgesic consumption was calculated by adding the amount of morphine delivered by PCA and any supplemental tramadol given by the nurse for inadequate pain control (VAS \>4) or at the patient's request, ensuring that the total opioid dose was within safe limits. |
| the incidence of postoperative nausea and vomiting(PONV) | within 24 hours after surgery | The incidence of postoperative nausea and vomiting(PONV) was defined as any nausea, vomiting or both |
| the nausea severity of postoperative nausea and vomiting(PONV) | within 24 hours after surgery | The nausea severity was rated on a 4-point scale (0 = none, 1 = mild, 2 = moderate and 3 = severe) |
| patient satisfaction score | at 24 hours after surgery | Patient satisfaction was assessed using a 5-point scale (1 = very dissatisfied, 2 = dissatisfied, 3 = neutral, 4 = satisfied and 5 = very satisfied). |
