Preoperative Oral Midazolam to Postoperative Pain Relief in Sleep Disturbance or Anxiety Patients With Colorectal Cancer

Effects of Preoperative Oral Mmidazolam on Postoperative Pain in Sleep Disturbance or Anxiety Patients Undergoing Laparoscopic Colorectal Cancer Resection- A Prospective, Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled Clinical Study


Sponsor

Sixth Affiliated Hospital, Sun Yat-sen University

Enrollment

280 participants

Start Date

Jul 24, 2024

Study Type

INTERVENTIONAL

Conditions

Summary

Previous studies have indicated a high incidence of sleep disturbances and anxiety symptoms in individuals with colorectal cancers prior to undergoing surgery, leading to worsened postoperative pain, slower recovery, and higher risk of chronic pain. The enhancement of sleep quality is intricately linked to reducing stress. Preoperative drugs that combine hypnosis and anti-anxiety have not been studied in colorectal cancer patients. Midazolam oral solution is safe and effective for short-term hypnotic and anti-anxiety effects in clinical preoperative settings. In the current randomized controlled clinical trial, 280 patients experiencing sleep disturbance or anxiety prior to colorectal cancer surgery will receive midazolam solution to assess its potential efficacy in reducing postoperative pain, expediting recovery, and decreasing the likelihood of chronic pain. Additionally, the study aims to explore the potential connections between midazolam administration and reductions in stress and inflammation.
