Spinal Morphine for Patients With Obstructive Sleep Apnea

Abstract
Omschrijving
Total hip and knee arthroplasty (THA and TKA) are among the most common orthopedic procedures performed worldwide1. They have been shown to reduce chronic pain, increase the ability to function independently, and improve quality of life2,3. With an aging and increasingly obese North American population, the uses of THA and TKA are increasing 4. One of the main challenges associated with THA as well as TKA continues to be the perioperative management of patients who are elderly or obese, and their associated co-morbidities. Both THA and TKA are commonly performed under neuraxial anesthesia. Neuraxial anesthesia has been reported to provide multiple benefits when compared to general anesthesia and/or systemic analgesia including superior post-operative analgesia5, reduced opioid consumption6, improved rehabilitation7, and reduced morbidity and mortality8-12. The addition of opioids to the neuraxial local anesthetic solution has been common practice since 1979, when morphine was first shown to provide effective and prolonged analgesia after intrathecal administration13. For both THA and TKA surgeries, intrathecal morphine provides effective analgesia14-16 allowing for a reduction of the dose of intrathecal local anesthetic (thus minimizing side effects)17, and has a marked postoperative opioid-sparing effect14-16. However, these benefits of intrathecal morphine must be weighed against its risks of pruritis, nausea/vomiting, urinary retention, and, of most concern, respiratory depression18.
