Randomized Controlled Trial
Ultrasound-guided transmuscular quadratus lumborum block reduced postoperative opioids consumptions in patients after laparoscopic hepatectomy: a three-arm randomized controlled trial.
To investigate whether transmuscular quadratus lumborum block (TQLB) combined with oxycodone-based patient-controlled intravenous analgesia (PCIA) compared with sufentanil-based patient-controlled intravenous analgesia could reduce postoperative pain and opioid consumption in patients undergoing laparoscopic hepatectomy. ⋯ TQLB combined with oxycodone-based PCIA provided satisfactory postoperative analgesia and reduced oxycodone consumption in patients following laparoscopic hepatectomy.

Randomized Controlled Trial
Effects of an individualized analgesia protocol on the need for medical interventions after adenotonsillectomy in children: a randomized controlled trial.
It has been proposed that the dose of rescue opioids should be individually titrated to the severity of obstructive sleep apnea after adenotonsillectomy. However, a sleep study is not always available before adenotonsillectomy. This randomized, controlled and blinded trial evaluated a strategy of pain control individualized to the results of a fentanyl test, rather than the results of polysomnography, in children after adenotonsillectomy. ⋯ Compared with a conservative dosing approach, this individualized protocol may improve analgesia without a significant increase in respiratory adverse events.

Effect of intra-operative intravenous lidocaine on opioid consumption after bariatric surgery: a prospective, randomised, blinded, placebo-controlled study.
Peri-operative intravenous lidocaine infusion does not appear to offer meaningful clinical benefit in bariatric surgery.

Randomized Controlled TrialEffects of an Intraoperative Intravenous Bolus Dose of Dexmedetomidine on Remifentanil-Induced Postinfusion Hyperalgesia in Patients Undergoing Thyroidectomy: A Double-Blind Randomized Controlled Trial.
Consecutive exposure to high-dose remifentanil during anesthesia may induce remifentanil-induced postinfusion hyperalgesia (RPH). Dexmedetomidine, a highly selective α2-adrenergic receptor agonist, may have synergistic effects with opioids and aid in perioperative pain management. In this study, we hypothesized that an intraoperative bolus dose of intravenous dexmedetomidine could alleviate RPH in patients undergoing thyroidectomy under general anesthesia. ⋯ An intraoperative intravenous bolus dose of dexmedetomidine 0.5 μg·kg-1 alleviates remifentanil-induced hyperalgesia in patients undergoing thyroidectomy without a significant difference in side effects.

Randomized Controlled Trial
Nociception-monitor-guided opioid administration in radical retropubic prostatectomy: a randomised controlled trial.
This RCT investigated the effect of opioid titration by three different nociception monitoring devices or clinical signs during general anaesthesia. ⋯ NCT03380949.
