About

The situation of demand for surgical conditions is quite high when lymph node resection involved in the surgery type, especially abdominal aortic lymph node dissection, and commonly, the surgeons complained about the interference from the intestine which pushed the investigators to increase the level of neuromuscular blockade close to deep NMB. To avoid the application of deep NMB and promote good surgical conditions for laparoscopic gynecological surgery with lymph nodes resection, the investigators explored other preoperative ways to cooperate with surgeons more harmoniously. It's well known that epidural anesthesia and epidural anesthesia combined with spinal anesthesia have the effect of muscle relaxation which has been applied in clinical practice widely. One study indicated that the Transverse Abdominal Plane (TAP) block could change muscle thickness and achieve the effect of muscle relaxation. It leads investigators to a hypothesis that the sheath of rectus abdominis block combined with transverse abdominal plane block may suppress the signal transmission of abdominal nerve, and may be beneficial to improve surgical conditions.

Full description

The investigators conducted this study to test the hypothesis that compared with moderate NMB, the sheath of rectus abdominis block combined with transverse abdominal plane block may reduce the frequency of additional ask for muscle relaxants to optimize surgical conditions, and also provide postoperative analgesia on the premise of moderate NMB.
