Brief Summary:
This study aimed to compare Quadratus Lumborum Block to Epidural on Stress Response and Perioperative Cellular Immunological Function of Laparoscopic Nephrectomy Kidney Donor
Detailed Description:
Sixty-two subjects were given informed consent before enrolling the study and randomized into two groups; quadratus lumborum block and epidural. Non-invasive blood pressure monitor, electrocardiogram (ECG), and pulse-oxymetry were set on the subjects in the operation room. General anesthesia induction was done by fentanyl 2 mcg/kg and propofol 1-2 mg/kg. Endotracheal tube (ETT) intubation was facilitated with Atracurium 0.5mg/kg as muscle relaxant. Maintenance was done by sevoflurane, oxygen, and compressed air. On quadratus lumborum block group, bilateral block using ultrasound will be performed with stimuplex 100mm needle with 20 cc of bupivacaine 0.25% as regimen. On epidural group, epidural catheter was inserted under general anaesthesia on left lateral decubitus position (5 cm depth inside the epidural space) at level Th10-Th11. The catheter insertion was confirmed with vacuum aspiration and negative test-dose. Before first incision, patient will be given continuous epidural Bupivacaine 0.25% 6 mL/hour. Blood sample was drawn for interleukin-6, blood glucose, and c-reactive protein as baseline data. After surgery, patient were extubated until fully conscious and can follow command verbally. Patient will be transported in recovery room post operation.
