About this trial

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if intragastric administration of lidocaine can reduce postoperative nausea and vomiting in obese patients undergoing laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy. The main question it aims to answer is:

Does administering 0.5% lidocaine via an orogastric tube reduce the incidence of postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) in the post-anesthesia care unit and within the first 24 hours after surgery compared to a placebo (normal saline)?

Researchers will compare the Lidocaine Group to the Placebo Group to see if the intervention lowers the PONV incidence.

Participants will:

* Receive the assigned study solution (either 0.5% lidocaine 20ml or normal saline 20ml) through an orogastric tube upon surgery completion and before extubation. * Have their gastric tube clamped for 5 minutes to ensure mucosal exposure before removal. * Undergo standardized total intravenous anesthesia and perioperative management according to the study protocol. * Be assessed for nausea, vomiting, and other outcomes at specified time points postoperatively in the recovery room and at 6, 12, and 24 hours.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Adults aged between 18 and 65 years old;

American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) physical status classification II - III;

Planned to undergo primary elective laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy with general anesthesia;

Capable of giving informed consent.

Disqualifiers

Trial design

Design model

Parallel

Treatments tested in this trial

  • Lidocaine

    Procedure/Surgery

    Upon completion of the surgery and before extubation, 20 ml of 0.5% lidocaine should be administered through the pre - inserted orogastric tube. The gastric tube should be clamped for 5 minutes to ensure sufficient mucosal exposure, and then removed before extubation.

  • Normal Saline (0.9% NaCl)

    Procedure/Surgery

    Before extubation after the surgery is completed, administer 20 ml of normal saline through the pre - inserted orogastric tube. Clamp the gastric tube for 5 minutes to ensure sufficient mucosal exposure, and then remove the tube before extubation.

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

The incidence of postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) in the post - anesthesia care unit and within 24 hours after surgery.

Time frame
Within 24 hours after the operation

Secondary outcomes

1

Degree of postoperative nausea and vomiting

The severity of nausea and vomiting was assessed using the Numerical Rating Scale at 6 hours, 12 hours, and 24 hours after surgery, respectively. A score of 0 indicated no nausea or vomiting, and a score of 10 indicated the most severe nausea or vomiting.

Time frame
6 hours, 12 hours, and 24 hours after surgery
2

Incidence rates of simple vomiting, simple nausea, and their combination during the postoperative anesthesia recovery room period and within 24 hours after surgery.

Time frame
Within 24 hours after the operation
3

Use rescue antiemetics

Use of emergency antiemetic drugs and time nodes after surgery.

Time frame
Within 24 hours after surgery.
4

Opioid use within 24 hours after surgery

The amount of opioids used 24 hours after surgery.

Time frame
24 hours after surgery
