| Popis: | The goal of the study was to assess the level of postoperative pain in patients undergoing PCNL after paratubal infiltration with local anesthetic to compare this method of anesthesia with a control group where local anesthesia was not provided. 63 patients were included with kidney stones, confirmed by computer tomography (CT), who were planned to undergo percutaneous nephrolithitomy (P С NL). During the observation 6 patients have been excluded in accordance with the exclusion criteria. The remaining 57 patients were randomized into 2 groups: group A ( n = 28) at the end of the operation received paratubal infiltration of 0.5% sol. ropivacaine; group B ( n = 29) (controls) — local anesthesia was not used. Postoperative pain was assessed by means of VAS-score 1 hour, 6 hours and 24 hours after surgery. Systemic analgesia was performed with NSAIDs (intramuscular injection of 100 mg ketoprofen) when requested by the patient (Patient-Controlled Analgesia). In patients with local anesthesia, the total VAS score evaluated after 1 and 6 hours after the operation was significantly lower than in the control group. The average amount of ketoprofen required for postoperative analgesia in the group of patients with paratubal infiltration was significantly lower than in the control group. Paratubal infiltration of local anesthetic after PCNL significantly reduced postoperative pain and tended to reduce the amount of NSAIDs to eliminate pain, which in turn may reduce the risk of complications associated with NSAID. |
