Summary

Standard analgesic techniques such as patient-controlled analgesia (PCA) and continuous epidural analgesia (CEA) are effective but associated with considerable side effects, including nausea, hypotension, and respiratory depression. This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the rhomboid intercostal block combined with subserratus plane block (RISS) compared to PCA and CEA for postoperative analgesia in bariatric surgery.

Conditions

  • Obesity/therapy

Interventions

DEVICE

PCA

Immediately post-surgery, patients in the PCA group received a programmed PCA infusion (YG-B-3; Jiangsu Yaguang Medical Device Co., Ltd., China) containing either ketorolac (180 mg) or sufentanil (200 µg) in 100 mL, delivered as a 2 mL/h basal infusion with 0.5 mL boluses; lockout interval: 15 min.

DEVICE

CEA

Following epidural catheter placement in the operating room, the CEA group received an initial bolus of 2% lidocaine (3 mL). Once sensory blockade was confirmed, continuous epidural infusion of 0.1% ropivacaine (8 mL/h) commenced.

DEVICE

RISS

RISS blocks were performed at the T4-T10 level under ultrasound guidance (EPIQ5 with L12-4 linear 7.5 MHz transducer; Philips Healthcare, Best, Netherlands). A 19-gauge, 40-cm catheter was advanced 3-5 cm beyond the needle tip into the subserratus plane, its position confirmed by injecting 5 mL of 0.2% ropivacaine. A further 15 mL of 0.2% ropivacaine was then administered. The catheter was connected to a PCA pump programmed to deliver a 7 mL/h basal infusion with 2 mL boluses; lockout interval: 30 min.
