Comparison of Cumulative Opioid Consumption Between Variable-Rate Feedback Infusion and Fixed-Rate Basal Infusion Modes of Intravenous PCA Following Mixed Surgery
Sponsor: Beijing Tiantan Hospital
Summary
Perioperative pain management affects patient recovery. However, the rate of moderate to severe postoperative pain is as high as 73.8%, which hinders recovery and increases the risk of complications. Although opioids are the first-line analgesics, excessive use leads to adverse reactions. The traditional fixed-rate PCA mode is difficult to match the changes in postoperative pain. This study will compare different PCA mode optimization strategies, assuming that they can reduce opioid dosage, improve analgesic effect, and reduce adverse reactions, providing high-quality evidence-based basis for postoperative analgesia and promoting individualized and intelligent management.

Interventions
Fixed-rate basal infusion mode
All participants received a standardized PCA solution containing sufentanil (100 μg), ondansetron (16 mg), and normal saline with total volume 100 mL. In conventional fixed-rate basal infusion mode group, the PCA was set to administer a bolus of 2 mL with a lock out interval of 15 minutes and background infusion rate 2 mL/h.
Variable-rate feedback infusion mode
All participants received a standardized PCA solution containing sufentanil (100 μg), ondansetron (16 mg), and normal saline with total volume 100 mL. In variable-rate feedback infusion mode group, a bolus of 2 mL with a lock out interval of 15 minutes and background infusion rate 2 mL/h, which increased to 2.5 mL/h, was used whenever the demand dose was administered within lock out interval. The background infusion rate automatically decreased by 0.5 mL/h when the bolus button was not pressed for 1 hour. The background infusion rate was limited to a maximum of 12.0 mL/h and a minimum of 1 mL/h. The specific variable-rate feedback infusion mode setting was based on previous research, and the opinions of manufacturers and researchers to ensure patient safety and to provide effective analgesia.
