Comparison of the Efficacy and Safety of Fixed-rate Basal Infusion Mode and Time-programmed Decremental Background Infusion Mode of Intravenous PCA Following Mixed Surgery
Prospective Randomized Controlled Study of Individualized PCA Model Based on Multi-dimensional Strategies (Fixed-rate Basal Infusion Mode and Time-programmed Decremental Background Infusion Mode)
Beijing Tiantan Hospital
450 participants

INTERVENTIONAL
Conditions
Summary
Perioperative pain management affects patient recovery. However, the rate of moderate to severe postoperative pain is as high as 73.8%, which hinders recovery and increases the risk of complications. Although opioids are the first-line analgesics, excessive use leads to adverse reactions. The traditional fixed-rate PCA mode is difficult to match the changes in postoperative pain. This study will compare different PCA mode optimization strategies, assuming that they can reduce opioid dosage, improve analgesic effect, and reduce adverse reactions, providing high-quality evidence-based basis for postoperative analgesia and promoting individualized and intelligent management.

Interventions
All participants received a standardized PCA solution containing sufentanil (200 μg), ondansetron (32 mg), and normal saline with total volume 200 mL. In conventional fixed-rate basal infusion mode group, the PCA was set to administer a bolus of 2 mL with a lock out interval of 15 minutes and background infusion rate 2 mL/h.
In the time-programmed decremental infusion group, which served as the intervention group, the bolus dose and lockout interval will remain the same, whereas the background infusion rate will be reduced according to a predefined postoperative schedule designed to match the expected decline in postoperative pain intensity. Specifically, the background infusion rate will be set at 4.0 mL/h during the first 6 postoperative hours, reduced to 3 mL/h from 6 to 12 hours, decreased to 2.0 mL/h from 12 to 24 hours, and further reduced to 1.0 mL/h from 24 to 48 hours after surgery.
