Abstract
Objective: This triple-blind, controlled clinical trial aimed to assess the effects of ropivacaine and lidocaine on hemodynamic factors, blood loss, opioid consumption, and postoperative pain in patients undergoing orthognathic surgery.
Methods: Thirty-two patients with Class III malocclusion scheduled for orthognathic surgery were included. The participants were randomly assigned to receive 0.5% ropivacaine or 2% lidocaine with 1:80,000 epinephrine for local anesthesia (n = 16). Hemodynamic parameters were recorded at various time intervals, which included heart rate (HR), systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, mean arterial pressure, oxygen saturation (SpO2), intraoperative bleeding, opioid consumption, and postoperative pain intensity.
Results: The participants' mean age was 23.67 ± 4.56 years, and 75% were female. The groups were comparable in most measured outcomes. HR was significantly higher in the ropivacaine group at 30 and 60 min post-injection (P < 0.05). SpO2 percentages were comparable between the groups, except at 15 min post-anesthesia, where the lidocaine group demonstrated a significantly higher SpO2 (P = 0.029). Blood pressure, postoperative opioid consumption, intraoperative bleeding, and postoperative pain levels showed no statistically significant differences between the two groups.
Conclusion: Within the limitations of this study, both 0.5% ropivacaine and lidocaine with epinephrine demonstrated comparable effects on hemodynamic stability, intraoperative blood loss, postoperative pain levels, and opioid consumption in patients undergoing orthognathic surgery. These findings suggest that ropivacaine may serve as a safe and effective alternative to lidocaine for local anesthesia in orthognathic procedures.
期刊介绍:
Inflammopharmacology is the official publication of the Gastrointestinal Section of the International Union of Basic and Clinical Pharmacology (IUPHAR) and the Hungarian Experimental and Clinical Pharmacology Society (HECPS). Inflammopharmacology publishes papers on all aspects of inflammation and its pharmacological control emphasizing comparisons of (a) different inflammatory states, and (b) the actions, therapeutic efficacy and safety of drugs employed in the treatment of inflammatory conditions. The comparative aspects of the types of inflammatory conditions include gastrointestinal disease (e.g. ulcerative colitis, Crohn''s disease), parasitic diseases, toxicological manifestations of the effects of drugs and environmental agents, arthritic conditions, and inflammatory effects of injury or aging on skeletal muscle. The journal has seven main interest areas:
-Drug-Disease Interactions - Conditional Pharmacology - i.e. where the condition (disease or stress state) influences the therapeutic response and side (adverse) effects from anti-inflammatory drugs. Mechanisms of drug-disease and drug disease interactions and the role of different stress states
-Rheumatology - particular emphasis on methods of measurement of clinical response effects of new agents, adverse effects from anti-rheumatic drugs
-Gastroenterology - with particular emphasis on animal and human models, mechanisms of mucosal inflammation and ulceration and effects of novel and established anti-ulcer, anti-inflammatory agents, or antiparasitic agents
-Neuro-Inflammation and Pain - model systems, pharmacology of new analgesic agents and mechanisms of neuro-inflammation and pain
-Novel drugs, natural products and nutraceuticals - and their effects on inflammatory processes, especially where there are indications of novel modes action compared with conventional drugs e.g. NSAIDs
-Muscle-immune interactions during inflammation [...]
