Objectives

Narrative objectives1

The purpose of this study is to determine if subjects who receive droperidol added to patient-controlled epidural analgesia (PCEA) with fentanyl plus intravenous (IV) droperidol have less post-operative nausea and vomiting (PONV) than those who receive PCEA without droperidol plus IV droperidol only.

Assessment

Primary outcomes

Incidence of postoperative nausea and vomiting at each assessment point
Complete responder: No vomiting and use of rescue medications within 3 postoperative days

Key secondary outcomes

Demographic dates, postoperative pain score, need for supplemental analgesics, severity for PONV, times of PONV episodes, use of antiemetics, presence of motor blockade, the sensory block level, postoperative QTc intervals, volume of the study solution, and other adverse events

Interventions/Control_1

Control group: They will receive intraoperative IV droperidol and PCEA without droperidol in combination with fentanyl 4 mcg/mL and ropivacaine 0.06%. Before induction of general anesthesia, an epidural catheter is inserted at the Th9-10, Th10-11, Th11-12, Th12-L1 or L1-2 interspace. General anesthesia is induced with remifentanil, propofol and rocuronium followed by tracheal intubation. Anesthesia is maintained with sevoflurane, remifentanil and fentanyl without nitro oxide. Intraoperative epidural analgesia is achieved with 1, 1.5, 2 % mepivacaine 4-8 mL bolus injection followed by continuous infusion at 5 mL/h. 1.25 mg of droperidol is given after before the start of operation. On initiation of wound closure, the epidural catheter is connected to a PCEA pump (JMS) is set for a first loading dose 8 mL, a bolus dose of 2 mL, with a 10-min lockout interval, and a background infusion 4 mL/h. PCEA is made a dosage adjustment by attending surgeons and continued to at least the third postoperative day. A blinded investigator visits patients repeatedly to assure adequate analgesia, proper equipment function, and stable vital signs. Data collections are made by the anesthesiologist in attendance and a blind investigator at the end of anesthesia, at 1-5h after the completion of surgery (POD0), in the first postoperative morning (POD1M), in the afternoon (POD1A), in the second postoperative morning (POD2M) and in the third postoperative morning (POD3M).

Droperidol group: They will receive intraoperative IV droperidol and PCEA with droperidol in combination with fentanyl 4 mcg/mL and ropivacaine 0.06%.
