Purpose: Opioid administration in elderly surgical patients is link to multiple adverse effects that may impede postoperative recovery. We aimed to compare the impact of opioid-free anesthesia (OFA) versus conventional opioid-based anesthesia on postoperative recovery quality in elderly patients undergoing total hip arthroplasty (THA).
Methods: We randomized 68 elderly patients undergoing primary total hip arthroplasty under general anesthesia into either an opioid-free anesthesia group (Group OFA) or conventional opioid-based group (Group C). The primary outcome was quality of recovery assessed by the Quality of Recovery-15 (QoR-15) scores at 24h postoperatively. Secondary outcomes included: QoR-15 scores at 72h postoperatively, perioperative hemodynamic parameters, extubation time and PACU duration, NRS pain scores, postoperative sufentanil consumption and adverse event incidence.
Results: The QoR-15 scores statistically significant differed between the two groups at 24h postoperatively (112.2± 5.0 vs 102.6± 4.7, mean difference = 9.6,95% CI: 7.3– 12.0, P< 0.001) and 72h postoperatively (123.5± 3.9 vs 120.4± 3.9, mean difference = 3.1,95% CI: 1.2– 5.0, P= 0.02). However, by 72h, the observed difference did not reach minimum clinical important difference (MCID). Group OFA exhibited shorter extubation times and a reduced duration of stay in the PACU. Mean arterial pressure (MAP) showed statistically significant differences at T1, T2, and T4, as did the heart rates (HR) at T1–T4. NRS scores differed both at rest and during passive hip flexion in the PACU, and at 6 and 24 hours postoperatively. Additionally, Group OFA demonstrated reduced sufentanil consumption within the first 24 and 48 hours after surgery and a lower incidence of nausea and vomiting.
Conclusion: We concluded that OFA provided superior early recovery outcomes compared to conventional opioid-based anesthesia in elderly total hip arthroplasty patients, with improvements in pain, emotional state, and physical comfort domains.
