Pain Clinical Trial - Effect of Dexmedetomidine Combined With Low-dose

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

To explore and compare antihyperalgesic effects of Dexmedetomidine,Nalmefene,and a combination of both received before anesthesia induction. To evaluate and examine the incidence of adverse effects with the purpose of selecting the optimum dose.

Clinical Trial Description

There are a dramatically increasing number of evidences that administration of the potent, ultra-short-acting opioid remifentanil seems to cause opioid-induced hyperalgesia (OIH) more frequently and predictably compared with the others, likely due to its rapid onset and offset. Therefore, prophylaxis of remifentanil induced hyperalgesia is indispensable to postoperative comfort and satisfaction. There is no denying the fact that OIH is related to central glutaminergic system and N-methyl-d-aspartate(NMDA)receptor-activation induced central sensitization. Dexmedetomidine is an 2-adrenergic agonist that has been shown to synergize with opioids. Dexmedetomidine inhibits NMDAR excitability by reducing the phosphorylation of N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor 2B subunit phosphorylation of spinal dorsal horn induced by remifentanil, thereby achieving the goal of reducing OIH. Nalmefene is a pure opioid receptor antagonist that antagonizes the Mu receptor, alleviating the central sensitization of NMDA, thereby reducing OIH. At the same time reported in the literature, opioid receptor has a bimode：On the one hand can be mediated by Gs protein-mediated pain, respiratory depression, nausea and vomiting, etc ; on the other hand can be coupled with Gi / Go protein mediated analgesic effect. Low-dose nalmefene (<1.0ug / kg) and other opioid receptor antagonists can antagonize the role of Gs protein-coupled opioid receptors, blocking the pathway of opioid excitatory effects, thereby reducing the incidence of adverse reactions.The following study is carried out to evaluate whether dexmedetomidine combined with nalmefene can be safely and effectively applied to prevent postoperative hyperalgesia induced by remifentanil in patients undergoing Laparoscopic gynecological surgery. ;

Clinical trials are conducted in a series of steps, called phases - each phase is designed to answer a separate research question.

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.
