Objectives

Narrative objectives1

In recent years, ultrasound-guided nerve blocks for intraoperative/postoperative analgesia have become widely used. The rectus sheath block (RSB) is effective in reducing the systemic pain in the midsection of the anterior abdominal wall and has recently been used in abdominal surgery, including laparoscopic surgery and umbilical hernia surgery. Currently, there is no consensus on whether the block should be applied preoperatively or postoperatively in abdominal surgery, and the decision is left up to the anesthesiologist performing the procedure at our hospital. In the present study, we sought to determine whether the timing of block administration in abdominal surgery influences postoperative analgesic efficacy.

Results

In total, 609/14,284 patients were included (pre-RSB group, 227 patients; post-RSB group, 382 patients). After PS matching, 97 patients were assigned to both groups. Although the time from extubation to the first analgesic request was not significantly different between the 2 groups (322 vs 294 minutes, P = .57), the patients in the pre-RSB group showed a lower risk of postoperative first analgesic administration after PS matching (adjusted hazard ratio, 0.71; 95% confidence interval, 0.53-0.95; P = .023).

Baseline Characteristics

We included adult (18 years old and older) patients with surgical, urological, and gynecological issues who underwent laparoscopic surgery at our institution between January 1, 2013, and December 31, 2018.

Participant flow

From January 1, 2013, to December 31, 2018, 2396 of 14,284 patients underwent laparoscopic surgery, and 628 patients met the inclusion criteria. After excluding 11 patients who had undergone both pre- and post-RSB, 231 and 386 patients were allocated to the pre-RSB and post-RSB groups, respectively. Eight patients were excluded because they received epidural anesthesia or iv-PCA or had undergone conversion to laparotomy. Finally, 227 and 382 patients were included in the pre- and post-RSB groups, respectively. A total of 51 data points were missing for 3 variables (BMI, predictive operative time, and operative time). Consequently, we performed 1:1 PS matching with a caliper of 0.2 and a C-statistic of 0.902, and patients were assigned to the 2 groups (pre-RSB [nā€…=ā€…97] and post-RSB [nā€…=ā€…97])

Adverse events

none

Outcome measures

The primary outcome was the time to rescue analgesia within 24 hours postanesthesia.

This study, a historical cohort study, examined the effect of RSB (preoperative RSB group) versus postoperative RSB (postoperative RSB group) on postoperative analgesia in preoperative surgical, urological, and gynecological patients who underwent laparoscopic surgery at our institution between January 1, 2013 and December 31, 2018.
