RESUMO

PURPOSE: Chronic poststernotomy pain (CPSP) after cardiac surgery is multifactorial and impacts patient recovery. We aimed to evaluate the association between CPSP severity and health-related quality of life at six months after cardiac surgery. METHODS: This was a single-centre prospective cohort study of patients who underwent cardiac surgery with median sternotomy between September 2020 and March 2021. Telephone interviews were conducted at six and 12 months postoperatively using the Short Form McGill Pain Questionnaire and the EQ-5D-5L. Strength of correlation was described using Spearman's correlation coefficient. Multivariable regression analysis was used to account for confounding variables. RESULTS: A total of 252 patients responded to the six-month interview (response rate, 65%). The mean (standard deviation) age of respondents was 65 (13) yr. Twenty-nine percent of respondents (72/252) reported CPSP at six months, and 14% (41/252) reported more than mild pain (score ≥ 2/5). At 12 months, of the 89% (64/72) patients who responded, 47% (30/64) still reported pain. The strength of the correlation between pain scores and EQ-5D-5L was weak (Spearman's correlation coefficient, -0.3). Risk factors for CPSP at six months included higher pain score on postoperative day 1, history of chronic pain prior to surgery, and history of depression. Intraoperative infusion of dexmedetomidine or ketamine was associated with a reduced risk of CPSP at six months. CONCLUSION: Chronic poststernotomy pain still affects patient recovery at six and 12 months after cardiac surgery. The severity of that pain is poorly correlated with patients' quality of life.

RéSUMé: OBJECTIF: La douleur chronique post-sternotomie (DCPS) après une chirurgie cardiaque est multifactorielle et a un impact sur le rétablissement des patient·es. Nous avons cherché à évaluer l'association entre la sévérité de la DCPS et la qualité de vie liée à la santé six mois après la chirurgie cardiaque. MéTHODE: Il s'agissait d'une étude de cohorte prospective monocentrique portant sur des patient·es ayant bénéficié d'une chirurgie cardiaque avec sternotomie médiane entre septembre 2020 et mars 2021. Des entrevues téléphoniques ont été menées à six et 12 mois après l'opération en se servant du questionnaire abrégé de McGill sur la douleur et de l'EQ-5D-5L. La force de corrélation a été décrite à l'aide du coefficient de corrélation de Spearman. Une analyse de régression multivariée a été utilisée pour tenir compte des variables confondantes. RéSULTATS: Au total, 252 patient·es ont répondu à l'entrevue à six mois (taux de réponse de 65 %). L'âge moyen (écart type) des répondant·es était de 65 (13) ans. Vingt-neuf pour cent des personnes répondantes (72/252) ont déclaré avoir été atteintes de DCPS à six mois, et 14 % (41/252) ont signalé une douleur plus que légère (score ≥ 2/5). À 12 mois, sur les 89 % (64/72) personnes ayant répondu, 47 % (30/64) signalaient encore de la douleur. La force de la corrélation entre les scores de douleur et l'EQ-5D-5L était faible (coefficient de corrélation de Spearman, −0,3). Les facteurs de risque de DCPS à six mois comprenaient un score de douleur plus élevé au jour 1 postopératoire, des antécédents de douleur chronique avant la chirurgie et des antécédents de dépression. Une perfusion peropératoire de dexmédétomidine ou de kétamine a été associée à une réduction du risque de DCPS à six mois. CONCLUSION: La douleur chronique post-sternotomie affecte toujours le rétablissement des patient·es six et 12 mois après la chirurgie cardiaque. La sévérité de cette douleur est faiblement corrélée à la qualité de vie des patient·es. ENREGISTREMENT DE L'éTUDE: www.osf.io ( https://osf.io/52rsw ); enregistrée le 14 mai 2022.

RESUMO

Perioperative complications such as stroke, delirium, and neurocognitive dysfunction are common and responsible for increased morbidity and mortality. Our objective was to characterize and synthesize the contemporary guidelines on perioperative brain health for noncardiac, non-neurologic surgery in a scoping review. We performed a structured search for articles providing recommendations on brain health published between 2016 and 2021 and included the following complications: perioperative stroke and perioperative neurocognitive disorders, the latter of which encompasses postoperative delirium and a spectrum of postoperative cognitive dysfunction. We categorized recommendations by subtopic (stroke, postoperative delirium, postoperative cognitive dysfunction), type (disclosure/ethics/policies, prevention, risk stratification, screening/diagnosis, and management), and pharmacological versus nonpharmacological strategies. We noted country of origin, specialty of the authors, evidence grade (if available), and concordance/discordance between recommendations. Eight publications provided 129 recommendations, originating from the United States (n=5), Europe (n=1), United Kingdom (n=1), and China (n=1). Three publications (37%) applied grading of evidence as follows: Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development, and Evaluations (GRADE): A, 30%; B, 36%; C, 30%; D, 4%. We identified 42 instances of concordant recommendations (≥2 publications) on 15 themes, including risk factor identification, risk disclosure, baseline neurocognitive testing, nonpharmacological perioperative neurocognitive disorder prevention, intraoperative monitoring to prevent perioperative neurocognitive disorders, avoidance of benzodiazepines, delaying elective surgery after stroke, and emergency imaging and rapid restoration of cerebral perfusion after perioperative stroke. We identified 19 instances of discordant recommendations on 7 themes, including the use of regional anesthesia and monitoring for perioperative stroke prevention, pharmacological perioperative neurocognitive disorder management, and postoperative stroke screening. We synthesized recommendations for clinical practice and highlighted areas where high-quality evidence is required to inform best practices in perioperative brain health.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: The relationship between anaesthetic technique and graft patency after open lower limb revascularization is unclear. The aim of this study was to evaluate the association between 30-day graft patency after elective infrainguinal bypass and anaesthetic technique (regional anaesthesia (RA, i.e. neuraxial and/or peripheral nerve blockade) compared with general anaesthesia (GA)). METHODS: Patients who underwent elective infrainguinal bypass in the 2014-2019 National Surgical Quality Improvement Program Vascular Procedure Targeted Lower Extremity Open data set were included. Excluded patients were those under 18 years old, those who did not receive RA or GA, and/or had an international normalized ratio of 1.5 of greater, a partial thromboplastin time more than 35 s, or a platelet count less than 80 × 109/L. The primary outcome was primary graft patency without reintervention. The relationship between anaesthetic technique and patency was analysed with multivariable logistic regression. RESULTS: Included were 8893 patients with a mean(s.d.) age of 68(11) years and 31.5 per cent female. Within the cohort, 7.7 per cent (n = 688) patients received RA only, 90.4 per cent (n = 8039) GA only, and 1.9 per cent (n = 166) both GA and RA. In the RA-only group, 91.7 per cent (631 of 688) received neuraxial anaesthesia. The primary patency rate was 93.2 per cent (573 of 615) for RA only, and 91.5 per cent (6390 of 6983) for GA only (standardized mean difference, 0.063). RA was not associated with a higher rate of patency compared with GA (adjusted OR, 1.16; 95 per cent c.i., 0.83 to 1.63; P = 0.378). CONCLUSION: There was no association between anaesthetic technique and 30-day graft patency after elective infrainguinal bypass surgery. Further prospective studies would be useful to study the impact of anaesthesia technique on important patient-centred outcomes such as long-term patency and non-home discharge.

RESUMO

PURPOSE: Postdischarge opioid prescriptions are reportedly much higher in Canada than in other countries. To assess potentially contributing factors, we examined trends after abdominal and orthopedic surgeries in British Columbia (BC). METHODS: Using the BC Ministry of Health's databases on physician billings, hospital discharge abstracts, and medication dispensations in community pharmacies for the period 2003-2016, we assembled a cohort of 263,056 patients who received laparoscopic appendectomy (LA, 11%), laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC, 30%), open inguinal or femoral hernia repair (IHR, 20%), total hip arthroplasty (THA, 18%), or total knee arthroplasty (TKA, 22%). Adjusting for covariates using generalized linear modeling, we measured trends in percentages of patients dispensed opioids postdischarge (opioid rate) within 30 days after surgery, by surgery type, opioid type, prior use, surgeon, and trends in morphine milligram equivalents of first dispensations (MME) with 95% confidence intervals (CI). RESULTS: Opioid dispensation rates rose steadily. Mean annual increases were 1.7% in LA; 1.3% in LC; 0.8% in IHR; 0.9% in THA; and 0.8% in TKA. By 2016, rates were 69% in LA; 76% in LC; 81% in IHR; 88% in THA; and 94% in TKA. Codeine dispensations fell 2.4% (abdominal) and 3.1% (orthopedic) per year while tramadol dispensations increased 3.6% (abdominal) and 1.7% (orthopedic). Hydromorphone dispensations increased 2.9% per year (orthopedic); oxycodone was level at 22% between 2007 and 2014, but then fell. The mean MME rose 8 mg⋅yr-1 (95% CI, 7 to 9) (abdominal) and 61 mg⋅yr-1 (95% CI, 58 to 64) (orthopedic). Variation in rates was greater among abdominal than orthopedic surgeons. CONCLUSION: Rising opioid dispensation rates, together with shifts to prescribing higher MME opioids, doubled MME per patient in first dispensations postdischarge after abdominal or orthopedic surgery from 2003 to 2016 in BC.


RéSUMé: OBJECTIF: Les ordonnances d'opioïdes après le congé seraient beaucoup plus élevées au Canada que dans d'autres pays. Afin d'évaluer les facteurs contributifs potentiels, nous avons examiné les tendances après les chirurgies abdominales et orthopédiques en Colombie-Britannique (C.-B.). MéTHODE: En utilisant les bases de données du ministère de la Santé de la Colombie-Britannique de facturation des médecins, les résumés des congés d'hôpital et les délivrances de médicaments dans les pharmacies communautaires pour la période 2003-2016, nous avons regroupé une cohorte de 263 056 patients ayant bénéficié d'une appendicectomie par laparoscopie (AL, 11 %), d'une cholécystectomie par laparoscopie (CL, 30 %), d'une réparation ouverte de hernie inguinale ou fémorale (RHI, 20 %), d'une arthroplastie totale de la hanche (ATH, 18 %) ou d'une arthroplastie totale du genou (ATG, 22 %). En tenant compte des covariables à l'aide d'une modélisation linéaire généralisée, nous avons mesuré les tendances dans les pourcentages de patients ayant reçu des opioïdes après leur congé (taux de délivrance d'opioïdes) dans les 30 jours suivant leur chirurgie, par type de chirurgie, type d'opioïde, utilisation antérieure, chirurgien et tendances des équivalents de morphine en milligrammes (EMM) des premières délivrances avec des intervalles de confiance (IC) à 95 %. RéSULTATS: Les taux de délivrance d'opioïdes ont augmenté de manière constante. Les augmentations annuelles moyennes étaient de 1,7 % pour les AL, 1,3 % pour les CL, 0,8 % pour les RHI, 0,9 % pour les ATH, et 0,8 % pour les ATG. En 2016, les taux étaient de 69 % pour les AL, 76 % pour les CL, 81 % pour les RHI, 88 % pour les ATH, et 94 % pour les ATG. Les dispenses de codéine ont chuté de 2,4 % (chirurgie abdominale) et de 3,1 % (chirurgie orthopédique) par année, tandis que les délivrances de tramadol ont augmenté de 3,6 % (chirurgie abdominale) et de 1,7 % (chirurgie orthopédique). Les délivrances d'hydromorphone ont augmenté de 2,9 % par année (orthopédie); l'oxycodone était à 22 % entre 2007 et 2014, mais a ensuite diminué. Les EMM moyens ont augmenté de 8 mg·an-1 (IC 95 %, 7 à 9) (chirurgie abdominale) et de 61 mg·an-1 (IC 95 %, 58 à 64) (chirurgie orthopédique). La variation des taux était plus importante parmi les chirurgiens abdominaux que chez les chirurgiens orthopédistes. CONCLUSION: L'augmentation des taux de délivrance d'opioïdes, ainsi que le passage à une prescription d'opioïdes plus élevés en EMM, ont doublé les EMM par patient dans les premières délivrances après leur congé après une chirurgie abdominale ou orthopédique de 2003 à 2016 en Colombie-Britannique.

RESUMO

PURPOSE: To describe postdischarge opioid dispensing after Cesarean delivery (CD) in 49 hospitals in British Columbia (BC) and assess opportunities for opioid stewardship. METHODS: Using the BC Ministry of Health's Hospital Discharge Abstract Database, we linked 135,725 CDs performed in 2004-2016 and 30,919 CDs performed in 2017-2019 (length of stay ≤ four days) by deidentified Personal Health Numbers to data on medications dispensed from all BC community pharmacies (PharmaNet). We excluded patients with cancer and those to whom opioids have been dispensed in the year before. We measured trends in annual percentages of patients dispensed opioids within seven days (opioid rate), with 95% confidence intervals (CIs), stratified by hospital and opioid type, adjusted for length of stay, and for autocorrelation within hospital using generalized linear modeling. RESULTS: The opioid dispensation rate dropped from 31% (95% CI, 30 to 33) in 2004 to 16% (95% CI, 15 to 17) in 2016, where it remained through 2019. Five hospitals showed steep reductions from over 40% to under 10% within two to three years, but in most hospitals the opioid dispensation rate decreased slowly-11 had little reduction and three showed increases. Codeine dispensing dropped from 31% in 2004-2008 by 4% per year, while tramadol and hydromorphone dispensing rose. After 2015, rates were stable (hydromorphone, 8%; tramadol, 6%; codeine, 3%; and oxycodone, 0.5%). CONCLUSION: After Health Canada's 2008 warning against codeine use by breastfeeding mothers, post-CD opioid dispensing declined disjointedly across BC hospitals. Rates did not decrease further after the opioid overdose epidemic was declared a public health emergency in BC in 2016. The present study highlights opportunities for quality improvement and opioid stewardship through monitoring using administrative databases.


RéSUMé: OBJECTIF: Décrire la délivrance d'opioïdes après le congé après un accouchement par césarienne dans 49 hôpitaux de la Colombie-Britannique (C.-B.) et évaluer les occasions de régulation des opioïdes. MéTHODE: À l'aide de la base de données sur les congés des patients du ministère de la Santé de la Colombie-Britannique, nous avons relié 135 725 accouchements par césarienne réalisés en 2004-2016 et 30 919 accouchements par césarienne réalisés en 2017-2019 (durée de séjour ≤ quatre jours) en utilisant les numéros de carte santé personnels dépersonnalisés aux données sur les médicaments délivrés par toutes les pharmacies communautaires de la Colombie-Britannique (PharmaNet). Nous avons exclu les patientes atteintes de cancer et celles à qui des opioïdes avaient été délivrés l'année précédente. À l'aide d'une modélisation linéaire généralisée, nous avons mesuré les tendances en pourcentages annuels de patientes ayant reçu des opioïdes dans les sept jours (taux d'opioïdes), avec des intervalles de confiance (IC) à 95 %, stratifiés par hôpital et par type d'opioïdes, ajustés en fonction de la durée de séjour et des autocorrélations entre des taux de chaque hôpital. RéSULTATS: Le taux de délivrance d'opioïdes est passé de 31 % (IC 95 %, 30 à 33) en 2004 à 16 % (IC 95 %, 15 à 17) en 2016, où il est resté jusqu'en 2019. Cinq hôpitaux ont montré des réductions importantes, passant de plus de 40 % à moins de 10 % en deux à trois ans, mais dans la plupart des hôpitaux, le taux de délivrance d'opioïdes a diminué lentement ­ 11 ont affiché une faible réduction et trois ont montré des augmentations. La délivrance de codéine a diminué de 4 % par année, à partir de 31 % en 2004-2008, tandis que la délivrance de tramadol et d'hydromorphone a augmenté. Après 2015, les taux étaient stables (hydromorphone, 8 %; tramadol, 6 %; codéine, 3 %; et oxycodone, 0,5 %). CONCLUSION: Suite à la mise en garde de Santé Canada en 2008 contre la consommation de codéine par les mères qui allaitent, la délivrance d'opioïdes post-césarienne a diminué de façon inconstante dans les hôpitaux de Colombie-Britannique. Les taux n'ont pas diminué davantage après que l'épidémie de surdose d'opioïdes a été déclarée urgence de santé publique en Colombie-Britannique en 2016. La présente étude met en évidence les possibilités d'amélioration de la qualité et de régulation des opioïdes en procédant à une surveillance via les bases de données administratives.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Rebound pain occurs after up to 50% of ambulatory surgeries involving regional anaesthesia. To assist with risk stratification, we developed a model to predict severe rebound pain after foot and ankle surgery involving single-shot popliteal sciatic nerve block. METHODS: After ethics approval, we performed a single-centre retrospective cohort study. Patients undergoing lower limb surgery with popliteal sciatic nerve block from January 2016 to November 2019 were included. Exclusion criteria were uncontrolled pain in the PACU, use of a perineural catheter, or loss to follow-up. We developed and internally validated a multivariable logistic regression model for severe rebound pain, defined as transition from well-controlled pain in the PACU (numerical rating scale [NRS] 3 or less) to severe pain (NRS ≥7) within 48 h. A priori predictors were age, sex, surgery type, planned admission, local anaesthetic type, dexamethasone use, and intraoperative anaesthesia type. Model performance was evaluated using area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUROC), Nagelkerke's R2, scaled Brier score, and calibration slope. RESULTS: The cohort included 1365 patients (mean [standard deviation] age: 50 [16] yr). The primary outcome was abstracted in 1311 (96%) patients, with severe rebound pain in 652 (50%). Internal validation revealed poor model performance, with AUROC 0.632 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.602-0.661; bootstrap optimisation 0.021), Nagelkerke's R2 0.063, and scaled Brier score 0.047. Calibration slope was 0.832 (95% CI: 0.623-1.041). CONCLUSIONS: We show that a multivariable risk prediction model developed using routinely collected clinical data had poor predictive performance for severe rebound pain after foot and ankle surgery. Prospective studies involving other patient-related predictors are needed. CLINICAL TRIAL REGISTRATION: NCT05018104.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: In an attempt to aggregate observations from clinical trials, several meta-analyses have been published examining the effectiveness of systemic, non-opioid, pharmacological interventions to reduce the incidence of chronic postsurgical pain. OBJECTIVE: To inform the design and reporting of future studies, the purpose of our study was to examine the quality of these meta-analyses. EVIDENCE REVIEW: We conducted an electronic literature search in Embase, MEDLINE, and the Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews. Published meta-analyses, from the years 2010 to 2020, examining the effect of perioperative, systemic, non-opioid pharmacological treatments on the incidence of chronic postsurgical pain in adult patients were identified. Data extraction focused on methodological details. Meta-analysis quality was assessed using the A Measurement Tool to Assess Systematic Reviews 2 (AMSTAR 2) critical appraisal tool. FINDINGS: Our search yielded 17 published studies conducting 58 meta-analyses for gabapentinoids (gabapentin and pregabalin), ketamine, lidocaine, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, and mexiletine. According to AMSTAR 2, 88.2% of studies (or 15/17) were low or critically low in quality. The most common critical element missing was an analysis of publication bias. Trends indicated an improvement in quality over time and association with journal impact factor. CONCLUSIONS: With few individual trials adequately powered to detect treatment effects, meta-analyses play a crucial role in informing the perioperative management of chronic postsurgical pain. In light of this inherent value and despite a number of attempts, high-quality meta-analyses are still needed. PROSPERO REGISTRATION NUMBER: CRD42021230941.

RESUMO

PURPOSE: Noise in the operating room (OR) is common and associated with negative effects on anesthesiologists, surgeons, and patient outcomes. Induction of anesthesia is among the loudest perioperative periods. Despite its critical nature, there is little data on noise levels during induction, associated patient and anesthesiologist satisfaction, and the effects of noise reduction strategies. METHODS: We conducted a two-part prospective interventional quality improvement project on the care of adult patients receiving general anesthesia for elective noncardiac surgery. For part A, we measured average and peak noise (dB[A]) levels during anesthesia induction in N = 100 cases and administered a satisfaction questionnaire to anesthesiologists. We then applied a multidisciplinary educational program to OR personnel on active noise reduction strategies and subsequently collected data during N = 109 cases in a post-intervention phase. For part B, we administered satisfaction questionnaires to N = 100 patients pre- vs postintervention, respectively. RESULTS: Median [interquartile range] noise levels throughout induction were 66.0 [62.5-68.6] dB(A) preintervention vs 63.5 [60.1-65.4] dB[A] post-intervention (Hodges-Lehmann estimator of the difference, - 2.7 dB[A]; 95% confidence interval [CI], - 4.0 to - 1.5; P < 0.001). Peak noise levels during induction were 87.3 [84.0-90.5] dB(A) preintervention and 86.2 [81.8-89.3] dB(A) postintervention (Hodges-Lehmann estimator of the difference, - 1.8 dB[A]; 95% CI, - 3.3 to - 0.3; P = 0.02). Noise-related anesthesiologist satisfaction postintervention was significantly improved in multiple domains, including assessment of noise having distracted anesthesiologists. Patient satisfaction was high pre-intervention and did not significantly improve further. CONCLUSION: In this quality improvement project, average noise levels during induction of anesthesia, anesthesiologist satisfaction, and anesthesiologists' perceived ability to perform were improved following a multidisciplinary educational program on noise reduction in the OR.

RéSUMé: OBJECTIF: Le bruit en salle d'opération (SOP) est fréquent et associé à des effets négatifs sur les anesthésiologistes, les chirurgiens et les issues des patients. L'induction de l'anesthésie est l'une des périodes périopératoires les plus bruyantes. Malgré sa nature critique, il existe peu de données sur les niveaux sonores pendant l'induction, la satisfaction des patients et des anesthésiologistes qui y est reliée, et les effets des stratégies de réduction du bruit. MéTHODE: Nous avons mené un projet prospectif et interventionnel, en deux parties, d'amélioration de la qualité sur les soins aux patients adultes recevant une anesthésie générale pour une chirurgie non cardiaque non urgente. Dans le cadre de la première partie A, nous avons mesuré les niveaux de bruit moyen et maximaux (dB[A]) pendant l'induction de l'anesthésie dans n = 100 cas et administré un questionnaire de satisfaction aux anesthésiologistes. Nous avons ensuite appliqué un programme de formation multidisciplinaire au personnel de la salle d'opération sur les stratégies de réduction active du bruit et avons ensuite recueilli des données pour n = 109 cas dans une phase post-intervention. Pour la deuxième partie B, nous avons administré des questionnaires de satisfaction à n = 100 patients pré- vs post-intervention, respectivement. RéSULTATS: Les niveaux de bruit médians [écart interquartile] tout au long de l'induction étaient de 66,0 [62,5­68,6] dB(A) avant l'intervention vs 63,5 [60,1­65,4] dB[A] après l'intervention (estimateur de Hodges-Lehmann, − 2,7 dB[A]; intervalle de confiance [IC] 95 %, − 4,0 à − 1,5; P < 0,001). Les niveaux maximaux de bruit pendant l'induction étaient de 87,3 [84,0­90,5] dB(A) avant l'intervention et de 86,2 [81,8­89,3] dB(A) après l'intervention (estimateur de Hodges-Lehmann, − 1,8 dB[A]; IC 95 %, − 3,3 à − 0,3; P = 0,02). La satisfaction des anesthésiologistes par rapport au bruit après l'intervention a été considérablement améliorée dans de nombreux domaines, y compris l'évaluation du bruit ayant distrait les anesthésiologistes. La satisfaction des patients était élevée avant l'intervention et ne s'est pas améliorée de manière significative. CONCLUSION: Dans ce projet d'amélioration de la qualité, les niveaux de bruit moyens lors de l'induction de l'anesthésie, la satisfaction des anesthésiologistes et la capacité perçue des anesthésiologistes à réaliser leurs tâches ont été améliorés à la suite d'un programme de formation multidisciplinaire sur la réduction du bruit en salle d'opération.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Fascial plane blocks (FPBs) target the space between two fasciae, rather than discrete peripheral nerves. Despite their popularity, their mechanisms of action remain controversial, particularly for erector spinae plane and quadratus lumborum blocks. OBJECTIVES: This narrative review describes the scientific evidence underpinning proposed mechanisms of action, highlights existing knowledge gaps, and discusses implications for clinical practice and research. FINDINGS: There are currently two plausible mechanisms of analgesia. The first is a local effect on nociceptors and neurons within the plane itself or within adjacent muscle and tissue compartments. Dispersion of local anesthetic occurs through bulk flow and diffusion, and the resulting conduction block is dictated by the mass of local anesthetic reaching these targets. The extent of spread, analgesia, and cutaneous sensory loss is variable and imperfectly correlated. Explanations include anatomical variation, factors governing fluid dispersion, and local anesthetic pharmacodynamics. The second is vascular absorption of local anesthetic and a systemic analgesic effect at distant sites. Direct evidence is presently lacking but preliminary data indicate that FPBs can produce transient elevations in plasma concentrations similar to intravenous lidocaine infusion. The relative contributions of these local and systemic effects remain uncertain. CONCLUSION: Our current understanding of FPB mechanisms supports their demonstrated analgesic efficacy, but also highlights the unpredictability and variability that result from myriad factors at play. Potential strategies to improve efficacy include accurate deposition close to targets of interest, injections of sufficient volume to encourage physical spread by bulk flow, and manipulation of concentration to promote diffusion.

RESUMO

PURPOSE: There exists a pressing need for the identification of novel analgesics. We recently reported on a new preclinical assay for rapid analgesic screening based on intraplantar (i.pl.) injection of 10% hypertonic saline (HS) in female outbred (CD-1) mice. Herein, we characterized the HS assay's performance in inbred (C57BL/6) mice, sensitivity to sex differences, and effects of diurnal rhythm phase. METHODS: In randomized, controlled, blinded in vivo animal experiments, we studied nociceptive responses induced by i.pl. HS in C57BL/6 (vs CD-1) mice of both sexes (n = 240) and determined diurnal rhythm phase effects in female animals. We established the HS assay's sensitivity to morphine by constructing dose-response curves and calculating half-maximal inhibitory doses (ID50s). RESULTS: The injection of i.pl. HS produced nociceptive (licking and biting) responses in all C57BL/6 mice tested. In both C57BL/6 and CD-1 mice, the mean (95% confidence interval [CI]) response magnitudes were greater in females vs males (C57BL/6: 87 sec [64 to 110] vs 45 sec [29 to 61]; difference in means, 42 sec; 95% CI, 17 to 68; P < 0.001; n = 10/group; CD-1: 110 sec [95 to 126] vs 53 sec [32 to 74]; difference in means, 57 sec; 95% CI, 34 to 79; P < 0.001; n = 10/group). The mean (95% CI) nociceptive responses were greater at 24:00 hr than at 12:00 hr in C57BL/6 mice (64 sec [40 to 88] vs 37 sec [24 to 51]; difference in means, 27 sec; 95% CI, 7 to 47; P = 0.007; n = 10/group), but not in CD-1 mice (P = 0.97). Intravenous morphine dose-dependently attenuated nociceptive responses of both C57BL/6 and CD-1 mice (ID50, 0.6 and 2.5 mg·kg-1, respectively; P = 0.41). CONCLUSION: These findings in inbred and outbred mice solidify the utility of the HS assay as an effective, rapid, robust, and versatile preclinical tool for analgesic screening.


RéSUMé: OBJECTIF: Il existe un besoin impérieux d'identification de nouveaux analgésiques. Nous avons récemment publié les conclusions d'un nouveau test préclinique portant sur le dépistage analgésique rapide basé sur l'injection intraplantaire (i.pl.) d'une solution saline hypertonique à 10 % (HS) chez des souris femelles croisées (CD-1). Dans notre présente étude, nous avons caractérisé la performance du test de HS chez des souris consanguines (C57BL/6), la sensibilité aux différences de sexe, et les effets des phases de rythme diurne. MéTHODE: Dans le cadre d'expériences animales in vivo en aveugle randomisées contrôlées, nous avons étudié les réponses nociceptives induites par une i.pl. de HS chez des souris C57BL/6 (vs CD-1) des deux sexes (n = 240) et déterminé les effets des phases du rythme diurne chez les animaux femelles. Nous avons établi la sensibilité du test HS à la morphine en construisant des courbes de dose-réponse et en calculant des doses inhibitrices semi-maximales (DI50). RéSULTATS: L'injection i.pl. de HS a produit des réponses nociceptives (léchage et morsure) chez toutes les souris C57BL/6 testées. Chez les souris C57BL/6 et CD-1, les magnitudes de réponse moyenne [intervalle de confiance (IC) 95 %] étaient plus élevées chez les femelles que chez les mâles (C57BL/6 : 87 [64 à 110] vs 45 [29 à 61] sec; différence de moyennes, 42 sec; IC 95 %, 17 à 68; P < 0,001; n = 10/groupe; CD-1: 110 [95 à 126] vs 53 [32 à 74] sec; différence de moyennes, 57 sec; IC 95 %, 34 à 79; P < 0,001; n = 10/groupe). Les réponses nociceptives moyennes [IC 95 %] étaient plus importantes à minuit (24 h) qu'à midi (12 h) chez les souris C57BL/6 (64 [40 à 88] sec vs 37 [24 à 51] sec; différence de moyennes, 27 sec; IC 95 %, 7 à 47; P = 0,007; n = 10/groupe), mais pas chez les souris CD-1 (P = 0,97). La morphine intraveineuse a atténué de façon dose-dépendante les réponses nociceptives chez les souris C57BL/6 et CD-1 (DI50, 0,6 et 2,5 mg·kg−1, respectivement; P = 0,41). CONCLUSION: Ces résultats chez les souris croisées et consanguines appuient l'utilité du test de HS comme un outil préclinique efficace, rapide, robuste et polyvalent pour le dépistage analgésique.
