Opioid Free Anesthesia and Bariatric Surgery

Brief Summary

The morbidly obese bariatric surgery population is susceptible to opioid-induced complications such as respiratory depression and postoperative nausea and vomiting. This population may in particular benefit from opioid-sparing or opioid-free anesthetic techniques. This study aims to evaluate the effect of opioid free total intravenous anesthesia on postoperative quality of recovery in patients undergoing bariatric surgery.

    Primary Outcomes
    • Quality of Recovery (QoR-15), a patient-reported outcome questionnaire that assesses the quality of functional recovery after surgery and anesthesia with a minimum score of 0 (very poor recovery) and a maximum score of 150 (excellent recovery).

    Secondary Outcomes
    • Postoperative pain intensities using a 0 to 10 numerical rating scale (NRS) with higher scores indicative of higher pain intensities.

    • Total postoperative opioid consumption

    • Time to post-anesthesia care unit discharge readiness

    Other Outcomes
    • The incidence of any postoperative nausea, retching, or vomiting.
