Surgery Clinical Trial
Official title:
The Effect of Anesthesia on Perioperative Muscle Weakness and Neuro-endocrine Stress Response
The effect of surgery, in contrary to critical illness, on muscle weakness hasn't been thoroughly investigated. Recent data suggest that elective surgery may also induce muscle weakness. The neuro-endocrine stress response could be involved in the pathophysiology. Whether the mode of anesthesia/analgesia can influence muscle weakness, by influencing the neuro-endocrine stress response is unknown. Gaining insight in this matter could affect quality of care and benefit patient recovery and satisfaction.
In this study, the investigators want to demonstrate whether the application of neuraxial
anesthesia for elective surgery diminishes perioperative muscle weakness. Since spinal and
epidural anesthesia/analgesia have been shown to influence the neuro-endocrine stress
response, the possible underlying mediator of perioperative muscle weakness, the
investigators will perform two different, but complementary, studies. In one study, patients
scheduled for elective total hip arthroplasty will receive spinal anesthesia, without losing
consciousness and maintaining a free airway, as compared to receiving general anesthesia. In
another study, patients scheduled for a laparoscopic hemicolectomy will receive epidural
anesthesia/analgesia during and after the surgery as compared to receiving no epidural
anesthesia/analgesia. These studies allow the investigators to identify whether the
application of neuraxial anesthesia/analgesia could diminish perioperative weakness and allow
us to identify other possible mediators of perioperative muscle weakness, such as losing
consciousness or receiving neuromuscular blockade.
This study has the potential to help to identify a new side-effect of elective surgery,
namely perioperative muscle weakness, and to identify a possible treatment for this possible
new complication, namely neuraxial anesthesia and analgesia, which might benefit many
patients in the future. Furthermore, investigating the possible mediating role of the
neuro-endocrine stress response might identify new therapeutic targets, such as glucagon
modulation.
