Effect of Scalp Nerve Block on the Recovery Quality of Parkinson's Patients After Deep Brain Stimulation

June 22, 2022 updated by: Wen-bin Lu, MD, Changhai Hospital

Effect of Scalp Nerve Block Combined With Intercostal Nerve Block on Quality of Recovery After Deep Brain Stimulation in Patients With Parkinson's Disease

Patients diagnosed with Parkinson's disease (PD) undergoing deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) have a higher risk of perioperative complications and postoperative pain will affect quality of recovery (QoR) resulting in longer hospitalization time and higher hospital costs. Scalp nerve block (SNB) combined with intercostal nerve block (ICNB)can alleviate postoperative pain while effect of them on postoperative recovery quality of patients diagnosed with PD was unclear. Therefore, the investigators conducted a randomized controlled trails to provide a novel method for enhanced recovery and early prevention and treatment of acute pain after DBS surgery.

  • Masking: QUADRUPLE

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
EXPERIMENTAL: SNB group
patients in the SNB group will receive general anesthesia combined with scalp nerve block and intercostal nerve block with 0.5% ropivacaine.
Participants randomized to the SNB group will receive general anesthesia combined with scalp nerve block and intercostal nerve block with 0.5% ropivacaine, which was performed exclusively by an attending anesthesiologist.An attending anesthesiologist will select the site of SNB based on the surgical incision site. Scalp nerve was blocked including greater occipital nerve (2-3ml), superficial temporal nerve (2-3ml), trochlear nerve (2-3ml) and supraorbital nerve (2-3ml). The total volume in scalp nerve block will not exceed 10 ml.Ultrasound-guided unilateral ICNB will be performed at the level of T4-T5 next to the sternum.10-15ml of 0.5% ropivacaine will be injected into the intercostal spaces where incision locates after negative aspiration.
NO_INTERVENTION: control group
patients in control group will receive general anesthesia without nerve block.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
The 15-item QoR score
Time Frame: 24 hour after surgery
The 15-item QoR score is used to asses quality of recovery after surgery which ranges 0-150 and higher QoR-15 scores indicate better postoperative recovery
24 hour after surgery

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
The 15-item QoR score
Time Frame: 72 hour and 1 month after surgery
The 15-item QoR score is used to asses quality of recovery after surgery which ranges 0-150 and higher QoR-15 scores indicate better postoperative recovery
72 hour and 1 month after surgery
The NRS score
Time Frame: before discharge from PACU, at 24 hour, 72 hour and 1 month after surgery
Postoperative pain will be quantified using the NRS ranging from 0 to 10, where 0 means "no pain at all" and 10 means "the worst pain imaginable"
before discharge from PACU, at 24 hour, 72 hour and 1 month after surgery
The patients with PONV
Time Frame: 24 hour after surgery
postoperative nausea and vomiting
24 hour after surgery
Consumption of opioid
Time Frame: during operation
The consumption of opioid reffers to remifentanil consumption
during operation
