Popis: Background To evaluate the efficacy of continuous wound infiltration with ropivacaine to reduce acute postoperative pain in patients undergoing mastectomy for carcinoma of the breast. Materials and methods A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial was conducted. One hundred fifty patients were randomly assigned to receive continuous ropivacaine (0.2%) (group A, n = 74) or saline solution (0.9%) (group B, n = 76) at 10 mL/h for 48 h through a multilumen catheter placed during the surgical procedure. Postoperative morphine consumption and visual analog scale (VAS) pain scores were recorded. A quality of life score (Quality of life questionnaire Core 30) and a VAS score were obtained at 1, 3, and 6 mo after surgery. Results The difference in mean morphine consumption between the two groups was close to significance during the first 48 h postsurgery (P = 0.056; 10.8 ± 16.5 versus 4.8 ± 10.4 mg). At day 1, patients in the ropivacaine-infusion group had lower morphine consumption than the control group (P = 0.0026). The link between local ropivacaine infiltration and a decrease in mean postoperative VAS scores reached significance for the first 24 h postsurgery (P = 0.039). No significant difference was found between the two arms for VAS pain scores (P = 0.36) or for quality of life (overall QLQ-C30 score, P = 0.09) at 1, 3, or 6 mo. Conclusions Continuous wound infiltration with ropivacaine is efficacious in reducing postoperative pain. Quality of life and chronic pain at 1, 3, and 6 mo were not improved by ropivacaine wound infiltration.
