Résumé

Intrathecal hydrophilic opioids decrease systemic opioid consumption after abdominal surgery and potentially facilitate enhanced recovery. A meta-analysis is needed to quantify associated risks and benefits. A systematic search was performed to find RCTs investigating intrathecal hydrophilic opioids in abdominal surgery. Caesarean section and continuous regional or neuraxial techniques were excluded. Several subgroup analyses were prespecified. A conventional meta-analysis, meta-regression, trial sequential analysis, and provision of GRADE scores were planned. The search yielded 40 trials consisting of 2500 patients. A difference was detected in 'i.v. morphine consumption' at Day 1 {mean difference [MD] -18.4 mg, (95% confidence interval [CI]: -22.3 to -14.4)} and Day 2 (MD -25.5 mg [95% CI: -30.2 to -20.8]), pain scores at Day 1 in rest (MD -0.9 [95% CI: -1.1 to -0.7]) and during movement (MD -1.2 [95% CI: -1.6 to -0.8]), length of stay (MD -0.2 days [95% CI: -0.4 to -0.1]) and pruritus (relative risk 4.3 [95% CI: 2.5-7.5]) but not in nausea or sedation. A difference was detected for respiratory depression (odds ratio 5.5 [95% CI: 2.1-14.2]) but not when two small outlying studies were excluded (odds ratio 1.4 [95% CI: 0.4-5.2]). The level of evidence was graded as high for morphine consumption, in part because the required information size was reached. This study showed important opioid-sparing effects of intrathecal hydrophilic opioids. Our data suggest a dose-dependent relationship between the risk of respiratory depression and the dose of intrathecal opioids. Excluding two high-dose studies, intrathecal opioids have a comparable incidence of respiratory depression as the control group. PROSPERO-registry: CRD42018090682.

BACKGROUND
Intrathecal hydrophilic opioids decrease systemic opioid consumption after abdominal surgery and potentially facilitate enhanced recovery. A meta-analysis is needed to quantify associated risks and benefits.
METHODS
A systematic search was performed to find RCTs investigating intrathecal hydrophilic opioids in abdominal surgery. Caesarean section and continuous regional or neuraxial techniques were excluded. Several subgroup analyses were prespecified. A conventional meta-analysis, meta-regression, trial sequential analysis, and provision of GRADE scores were planned.
RESULTS
The search yielded 40 trials consisting of 2500 patients. A difference was detected in 'i.v. morphine consumption' at Day 1 {mean difference [MD] -18.4 mg, (95% confidence interval [CI]: -22.3 to -14.4)} and Day 2 (MD -25.5 mg [95% CI: -30.2 to -20.8]), pain scores at Day 1 in rest (MD -0.9 [95% CI: -1.1 to -0.7]) and during movement (MD -1.2 [95% CI: -1.6 to -0.8]), length of stay (MD -0.2 days [95% CI: -0.4 to -0.1]) and pruritus (relative risk 4.3 [95% CI: 2.5-7.5]) but not in nausea or sedation. A difference was detected for respiratory depression (odds ratio 5.5 [95% CI: 2.1-14.2]) but not when two small outlying studies were excluded (odds ratio 1.4 [95% CI: 0.4-5.2]). The level of evidence was graded as high for morphine consumption, in part because the required information size was reached.
CONCLUSIONS
This study showed important opioid-sparing effects of intrathecal hydrophilic opioids. Our data suggest a dose-dependent relationship between the risk of respiratory depression and the dose of intrathecal opioids. Excluding two high-dose studies, intrathecal opioids have a comparable incidence of respiratory depression as the control group.
