ABSTRACT
Objective:To investigate the efficacy and safety of naborphine versus dezocine in painless visual anesthetics induced abortion. Methods:A total of 120 patients who underwent painless visual anesthetics induced abortion in Zhongshan City People's Hospital and Zhongshan Shaxi Longdu Hospital, China during January to September in 2020. They were randomly assigned to receive intravenous naborphine hydrochloride injection (0.15 mg/kg, naborphine group) or dezocine injection (5 mg, dezocine group), followed by intravenous propofol (2 mg/kg). When the eyelash reflex disappeared, surgery was initiated. If there were body movements, 30-50 mg propofol was added as appropriate. Systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, blood oxygen saturation, and heart rate before anesthesia (T 0), at 3 minutes after the beginning of surgery (T 1), and during recovery (T 2) were compared between the two groups. The time to regain consciousness, postoperative visual analogue pain score, propofol dose, operative time, and adverse reactions were determined in each group. Results:There were slight, but not significant, differences in systolic blood pressure and heart rate between the two groups at T 0, T 1 and T2 (all P > 0.05). There were no significant differences in time to regain consciousness, postoperative visual analogue pain score, propofol dose and operative time between the two groups (all P > 0.05). The incidence of nausea and vertigo in the naborphine group was 8.3% (5/60) and 11.6% (7/60), respectively, which was significantly lower than that in the dezocine group [30.0% (18/60), 31.6% (19/60), χ2 = 9.09, 7.07, both P < 0.05). Conclusion:Naborphine combined with propofol for painless visual anesthetics induced abortion exhibits good anesthetic effects and safety, with fewer intraoperative and postoperative adverse reactions than dezocine combined with propofol.
