Is this trial a fit for you?

Likely a good fit

Adults aged 18-65 undergoing elective CPA region surgery with planned PCIA and no history of opioid tolerance or prohibitive comorbidities.

Probably not a fit

Patients with conditions that predispose to poor response or tolerability to either drug may not experience reduced nausea.

What this trial studies

This single-center, double-blind, randomized study compares two opioid options for patient-controlled IV analgesia in adults undergoing CPA region surgery. It aims to see if oliceridine lowers the rate of postoperative nausea within 6-48 hours compared with sufentanil, while also examining pain control. About 174 participants are planned, with primary and several secondary outcomes including pain scores, vomiting, time to first flatus/defecation, and gastrointestinal function scores. The trial will enroll adults aged 18-65 with ASA I-III, and excludes those with opioid tolerance or major comorbidities. Lead sponsor is Xuanwu Hospital, Capital Medical University, Beijing.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, patients may experience less postoperative nausea and similar or better pain control with oliceridine for PCIA after CPA surgery.

How similar studies have gone: Previous studies in opioid choices for PCIA have shown mixed results; this study adds data specifically for CPA surgery.
