Catheter Redosing of Autonomic Neural Blockade After Sleeve Gastrectomy

13 juin 2026 mis à jour par: Universidad Simón Bolívar

Targeted Temporary In Situ Catheter Redosing of Autonomic Neural Blockade for Breakthrough Symptoms After Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy

Postoperative visceral pain and autonomic symptoms after laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy may reappear earlier in selected high-risk patients despite standard intraoperative autonomic neural blockade (ANB). Temporary in situ catheter placement permits postoperative ANB redosing when breakthrough visceral symptoms occur.

This prospective single-arm observational study will evaluate the feasibility, safety, and clinical effectiveness of temporary ANB catheter placement and selective postoperative redosing in high-risk patients undergoing laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy.

Description détaillée

Autonomic neural blockade (ANB) selectively modulates visceral pain and autonomic symptoms after minimally invasive upper gastrointestinal surgery. Prior randomized trials have demonstrated reductions in pain, analgesic requirements, PONV, and anesthetic consumption following ANB during laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG). However, breakthrough visceral symptoms may occur in selected patients after blockade wanes.

A prior feasibility study by our group demonstrated that temporary in situ catheter placement for postoperative ANB redosing after LSG is technically feasible and safe, establishing catheter selection, placement strategy, and anatomical targets.

This prospective pilot study evaluates the clinical utility of selective postoperative ANB redosing in predefined high-risk patients.

All participants will undergo standard intraoperative ANB, TAP block, and temporary catheter placement in one of three anatomically validated paragastric/celiac pathway locations. Scheduled acetaminophen will be administered postoperatively.

Prior to any redosing, the treating investigator will clinically assess whether symptoms are consistent with visceral/autonomic breakthrough rather than somatic/incisional pain. Pain characteristics suggesting visceral origin include diffuse, deep, poorly localized epigastric/substernal discomfort, associated nausea/vomiting, autonomic symptoms, or pain disproportionate to abdominal wall tenderness.

Patients meeting redosing criteria will receive catheter redosing with 15 mL of 0.5% bupivacaine plus 4 mg dexamethasone. The minimum interval between re-dosing will be eight hours.

Concomitant hiatal hernia repair will be recorded for all patients, given the potential influence of distal phrenic nerve blockade on postoperative symptom patterns.

Groupe de participants / Bras
Intervention / Traitement
Expérimental: Catheter Re-dosing for Breakthrough Symptoms After LSG
Participants with breakthrough symptoms, defined as visceral pain of 4/10 or higher, postoperative nausea, or vomiting, will receive 15 mL of bupivacaine 0.5% plus dexamethasone 4 mg through the temporary catheter. Symptom response will be recorded 15 minutes after administration. Catheter re-dosing may be repeated if breakthrough visceral/autonomic symptoms recur, provided that at least 8 hours have elapsed since the prior dose and the participant remains under direct institutional supervision. The catheter will be removed 24 hours postoperatively or before hospital discharge, whichever occurs first.
Autre: Bupivacaine 0.5% and Dexamethasone via Temporary Catheter
Autonomic neural blockade (ANB) re-dosing will be performed by administering bupivacaine 0.5% and dexamethasone through a temporary catheter placed in the paragastric area during laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy

Que mesure l'étude ?

Principaux critères de jugement

Mesure des résultats
Description de la mesure
Délai
Clinical Response to autonomic neural blockade(ANB) Redosing
Délai: Up to 24 hours postoperatively
Change in visceral pain score measured on a 10-point visual analog scale before and after autonomic neural blockade re-dosing. A clinically meaningful response is defined as a reduction of 2 or more points.
Up to 24 hours postoperatively
Resolution of Postoperative Nausea or Vomiting After ANB Re-dosing
Délai: Up to 24 hours postoperatively
Resolution of postoperative nausea or vomiting when present before autonomic neural blockade re-dosing, assessed as present or absent after treatment.
Up to 24 hours postoperatively
Proportion of Participants With Successful Temporary Catheter Placement and Function
Délai: Intraoperative through 24 hours postoperatively
Successful temporary catheter placement and function, assessed as a binary yes/no measure. Success is defined as intraoperative placement of the catheter in the intended paragastric location with catheter patency sufficient to allow postoperative administration of the study intervention if clinically indicated.
Intraoperative through 24 hours postoperatively

Comparison of postoperative pain scores measured using the Visual Analog Scale for pain, ranging from 0 to 10, where 0 indicates no pain and 10 indicates the worst pain. Scores will be compared at 8, 24, and 48 hours after surgery with a prior institutional laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy cohort managed under an identical perioperative protocol but without catheter placement or autonomic neural blockade re-dosing. In participants requiring re-dosing, pain scores obtained before rescue intervention will be used for comparison.
