Changes in analgesic strategies for lobectomy from 2009 to 2018Central MessagePerspective

Objective: To evaluate trends in the use of epidural analgesia and nonopioid and opioid analgesics for patients undergoing lobectomy from 2009 to 2018. Methods: We queried the Premier database for adult patients undergoing open, video-assisted, and robotic-assisted lobectomy from 2009 to 2018. The o...

description Objective: To evaluate trends in the use of epidural analgesia and nonopioid and opioid analgesics for patients undergoing lobectomy from 2009 to 2018. Methods: We queried the Premier database for adult patients undergoing open, video-assisted, and robotic-assisted lobectomy from 2009 to 2018. The outcome of interest was changes in the receipt of epidural analgesia and nonopioid and opioid analgesics as measured by charges on the day of surgery. We also evaluated postoperative daily opioid use. We used multivariable logistic and linear regression models to examine the association between the utilization of each analgesic modality and year. Results: We identified 86,308 patients undergoing lobectomy from 2009 to 2018 within the Premier database: 35,818 (41.5%) patients had open lobectomy, 35,951 (41.7%) patients had video-assisted lobectomy, and 14,539 (16.8%) patients had robotic-assisted lobectomy. For all 3 surgical cohorts, epidural analgesia use decreased, and nonopioid analgesics use increased over time, except for intravenous nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. Use of patient-controlled analgesia decreased, while opioid consumption on the day of surgery increased and postoperative opioid consumption did not decrease over time. Conclusions: In this large sample of patients undergoing lobectomy, utilization of epidural analgesia declined and use of nonopioid analgesics increased. Despite these changes, opioid consumption on day of surgery increased, and there was no significant reduction in postoperative opioid consumption. Further research is warranted to examine the association of these changes with patient outcomes.
