Abstract:
:In a previous report the effectiveness of intraperitoneal bupivacaine in reducing pain following laparoscopic cholecystectomy was demonstrated. Other methods of pain relief are commonly used but none has been compared following laparoscopic cholecystectomy. In two further studies we have compared the analgesic effect of intraperitoneal bupivacaine against wound infiltration with bupivacaine, and against intraperitoneal bupivacaine with the addition of a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) in patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Two consecutive studies were performed. In the first, patients in group 1 were given 20 ml of 0.25% bupivacaine into the peritoneal cavity; patients in group 2 were given 20 ml of 0.25% bupivacaine injected into the trocar wounds. In the second study, patients in group 1 were given 20 ml of 0.25% bupivacaine into the peritoneal cavity; patients in group 2 were given 20 ml of 0.25% bupivacaine into the peritoneal cavity and a diclofenac suppository (100 mg) one hour before surgery. Postoperative pain was assessed with a visual analogue pain scale. There was no difference in pain scores in the two groups in either study. Intraperitoneal bupivacaine is as effective as wound infiltration. The addition of an NSAID makes no difference in the reduction of postoperative pain following laparoscopic cholecystectomy.
