Acute Pain


REMIFENTANIL LINKED TO HIGHER MORPHINE NEED POST-SURGERY

Lisa Kuhns, PhD
|
April 16, 2024
Researchers conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis to explore the
effect of remifentanil on acute and chronic postsurgical pain after cardiac
surgery.

Remifentanil may increase morphine consumption after surgery and increase
complications, although evidence does not support incidence of chronic
postsurgical pain after cardiac surgery. These study findings were reported in
the Journal of Clinical Pain.



Researchers conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis to explore the
effect of remifentanil on acute and chronic postsurgical pain after cardiac
surgery. Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) were collected from 5 databases,
and a random-effect model with the generic Mantel-Haenszel method was preferred
for integrating risk ratios (RRs). The primary outcome of the study was chronic
postsurgical pain. Secondary outcomes were scores of postsurgical pain and
morphine consumption within 24 hours after cardiac surgery.

From a total of 1241 articles, 7 studies with 658 patients aged between 32 and
85 years were included after screening. Regarding anesthesia maintenance, 2
studies used propofol in combination with isoflurane or sevoflurane, 4 studies
opted for target-controlled infusion of propofol alone, and 1 study utilized
isoflurane or sevoflurane. For analgesia, 3 studies administered low-dose
remifentanil, while 4 employed high-dose remifentanil. The studies focused on
chronic pain and had follow-up durations exceeding 3 months, with the longest
being 1 year. Despite all studies evaluating the impact of remifentanil on pain
outcomes, they differed in surgery types, sample sizes, and study designs. Most
RCTs in the review had a low risk of bias, except for 3 studies with concerns
about unclear randomization, intervention deviations, and selection of reported
results. Despite these issues, risks for other biases were low. A publication
bias analysis using a funnel plot indicated a low risk of publication bias, as
the distribution was symmetric.



The incidence of chronic postsurgical pain, reported in 4 studies with 415
participants, showed no significant differences between the 2 groups (relative
risk: 1.02; 95% CI, 0.53-1.95; P =.95; I²=59%). While the cumulative Z curve
crossed the traditional boundary, it didn’t cross the Trial Sequential Analysis
(TSA) boundary for benefit or harm and didn’t meet the required information size
(RIS). This suggests that the traditional meta-analysis might indicate a
positive outcome, but it could be a false positive. Further trials are needed
for conclusive verification.

Postsurgical morphine consumption, assessed in 6 studies with 569 participants
and a follow-up of at least 24 hours after surgery, was significantly higher in
the remifentanil group compared with the control group (mean difference: 6.94;
95% CI, 3.65-10.22; P <.01; I²=0%). Stratified analyses for low and high-dose
remifentanil groups both showed higher morphine consumption compared to controls
(low: P =.0009; high: P =.01). The cumulative Z curve surpassed both the
traditional and TSA boundaries, indicating a positive result despite not
reaching the RIS.

“
Remifentanil has not been considered currently to increase the incidence of
chronic postoperative pain. However, there was moderate certainty evidence that
the use of remifentanil increases the consumption of morphine for analgesia in
the short term, and more direct comparison trials are needed to inform clinical
decision-making with greater confidence.


Postsurgical pain scores, evaluated in 2 studies with 196 participants, showed
no significant differences between the 2 groups (mean difference: 0.09; 95% CI,
-0.36 to 0.55; P =.69; I²=0%). The cumulative Z curve did not cross the
conventional or the TSA boundaries for benefit or harm and did not meet the RIS,
indicating the conclusion is unreliable. Further studies are necessary for
verification.

The quality of evidence for chronic postsurgical pain was low due to high bias
and moderate heterogeneity (I2=53%). Evidence on morphine consumption was
moderate, downgraded for wide confidence intervals. Evidence for postsurgical
pain scores was low and downgraded due to high bias in one study and imprecise
effect estimates.



Study limitations include that postoperative pain management protocols vary
widely, postsurgical pain levels and/or analgesic consumption was not always the
main end point of the included study, and it was not possible for each study to
adopt double-blinding in the choice of anesthesia strategy, which can affect the
results.

Researchers concluded, “Remifentanil has not been considered currently to
increase the incidence of chronic postoperative pain. However, there was
moderate certainty evidence that the use of remifentanil increases the
consumption of morphine for analgesia in the short term, and more direct
comparison trials are needed to inform clinical decision-making with greater
confidence.”
