Arms of the Study
Arm 1
Arm 2
Arm Type
Experimental
Placebo Comparator
Arm Label
The ITM group
The IV-PCA group
Arm Description
The postoperative pain management includes both the intrathecal morphine injection and the intravenous patient-controlled analgesia.
The postoperative pain management includes only the intravenous patient-controlled analgesia.
Outcomes
Primary Outcome Measures
The evaluation of pain at 24 hours after surgery
The doctor blinded to the investigation will visit patients. The pain will be assessed at rest and at coughing using visual analogue scale.
Secondary Outcome Measures
The consumption of analgesics
The total amount of opioids (IV morphine) used for 24 hours after surgery will be recorded and compared.
The consumption of intraoperative opioids
The total amount of intraoperative opioids (IV remifentanil) will be recorded and compared.
The side effects of opioids after surgery
Any side effects of opioids including nausea, vomiting, dizziness, sedation, headache, pruritus and respiratory depression will be recorded.

5. Study Description
Brief Summary
This study will investigate the efficacy and safety of intrathecal morphine for the patients undergoing robot-assisted prostatectomy
Detailed Description
Prostatectomy is the treatment of choice for prostate cancer. The robot-assisted prostatectomy is becoming the most popular surgical method for prostate cancer. The small incision after robot-assisted prostatectomy is thought to reduce the postoperative pain. There is few investigations for the strategy to reduce the postoperative pain of robot-assisted prostatectomy.
The intrathecal morphine injection is known to reduce postoperative pain for surgeries like hepatectomy, myomectomy and open prostatectomy. This method, however, is not yet studied for the robot-assisted prostatectomy. This study will investigate the efficacy and safety of intrathecal morphine for the patients undergoing robot-assisted prostatectomy.
