ABSTRACT
Objective:To evalaute the efficacy of butorphanol mixed with different doses of hydromorphone in improving patient-controlled intravenous analgesia (PCIA) after secondary cesarean section.Methods:Two hundred American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status Ⅱsingleton pregnant parturients, aged 18-45 yr, at 37-42 week gestation, with body mass index≤30 kg/m 2, undergoing elective secondary cesarean section under combined spinal-epidural anesthesia, were allocated to one of 4 groups ( n=50 each) using a random number table method: butorphanol (group B) and butorphanol mixed with different doses of hydromorphone groups (group BH 1, group BH 2 and group BH 3). Flurbiprofen 50 mg, butorphanol 1 mg and granisetron 3 mg were intravenously injected after delivery during operation.The analgesic pump was connected and turned on at the end of operation.The PCIA solution contained butorphanol 0.24 mg/kg and granisetron 6 mg in group B, butorphanol 0.24 mg/kg and hydromorphone 0.06 mg/kg and granisetron 6 mg in group BH 1, butorphanol 0.24 mg/kg and hydromorphone 0.09 mg/kg and granisetron 6 mg in group BH 2, butorphanol 0.24 mg/kg and hydromorphone 0.12 mg/kg and granisetron 6 mg in group BH 3.The PCIA solution was diluted with normal saline to 150 ml, and the patient-controlled analgesia (PCA) pump was set up to deliver a 3.0 ml bolus dose with a 15-min lockout interval and background infusion at 2.5 ml/h in all the four groups.The degree of pain was evaluated using the VAS score.When the VAS score>5 points after pressuring analgesia pump at rest, flurbiprofen axetil 50 mg was intravenously injected for rescue analgesia.VAS scores during movement, at rest and during uterine contraction and observer′s assessment of alertness/sedation scale score were recorded at 3, 6, 24 and 48 h after operation.The requirement for rescue analgesia, effective pressing times of PCA, overall satisfaction score, OAA/S score<5, adverse reactions and time to the first flatus were recorded within 48 h after operation. Results:Compared with group B, VAS scores in different states were significantly decreased after operation, the effective pressing times of PCA were decreased within 48 h after surgery, and the overall satisfaction score was increased in BH 1, BH 2 and BH 3 groups ( P<0.05). Compared with group BH 1, no significant change was found in VAS score in different states after operation in group BH 2 ( P>0.05), and VAS score was significantly decreased at rest after operation in group BH 3 ( P<0.05). There was no significant difference in VAS scores between group BH 2 and group BH 3 ( P>0.05). There were no significant differences in the requirement for rescue analgesia, effective pressing times of PCA and overall satisfaction of the puerperae among BH 1, BH 2 and BH 3 groups ( P>0.05). There was no significant difference in the time to the first flatus after operation, requirement for rescue analgesia and incidence of observe′s assessment of alterness/sedation scale score<5 and adverse reactions among the four groups ( P>0.05). Conclusions:Compared with butorphanol alone, butorphanol mixed with hydromorphone is helpful in reducing maternal pain and improving the overall satisfaction, with fewer adverse reactions.Butorphanol 0.24 mg/kg mixed with hydromorphone 0.09 mg/kg is recommended.
ABSTRACT
Objective To evaluate the role of hippocampal mast cells in the early postoperative cognitive impairment in rats.Methods Eighty male Sprague-Dawley rats,aged 6-8 weeks,weighing 200-250 g,were divided into 4 groups (n=20 each) using a random number table method:normal saline control group (group C),cromolyn injected into lateral cerebral ventricle group (group L),operation group (group O),and cromolyn injected into lateral cerebral ventricle plus operation group (group LO).Cromolyn 2 μl (100 μg/ul) was intracerebroventricularly injected in L and LO groups.The equal volume of normal saline was given instead in C and O groups.Open reduction and internal fixation was performed after tibial fracture was induced 30 min later in O and LO groups.Contextual fear conditioning and Y-maze tests were performed at 1 and 3 days after operation,and the freezing time and the number of learning trails were recorded.The animals were then sacrificed,and hippocampal tissues were obtained for determination of activated mast cell count (by toluidine blue staining) and expression of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α)and interleukin-1beta (IL-1β) mRNA (by polymerase chain reaction).Results Compared with group C,the number of learning trails was significantly increased,and the freezing time was shortened,the number of activated mast cells in hippocampi was increased,and the expression of IL-1β mRNA was up-regulated at 1 and 3 days after operation,and the expression of TNF-α mRNA was up-regulated at 1 day after operation in group O (P＜0.05),and no significant change was found in the parameters mentioned above in group L (P＞0.05).Compared with group O,the number of learning trails was significantly decreased,and the freezing time was prolonged,the number of activated mast cells in hippocampi was decreased,and the expression of IL-1β mRNA in hippocampi was down-regulated at 1 and 3 days after operation,and the expression of TNF-α mRNA in hippocampi was down-regulated at 1 day after operation in group LO (P＜0.05).Conclusion Activation of hippocampal mast cells can induce central inflammatory responses and is involved in the mechanism of early postoperative cognitive impairment in rats.

ABSTRACT
Our previous works disclosed the contributing role of macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF) and dopaminergic inhibition by lysine dimethyltransferase G9a/Glp complex in peripheral nerve injury-induced hypersensitivity. We herein propose that the proinflammatory cytokine MIF participates in the regulation of neuropathic hypersensitivity by interacting with and suppressing the descending dopaminergic system. The lumbar spinal cord (L-SC) and ventral tegmental area (VTA) are two major locations with significant upregulation of MIF after chronic constriction injury (CCI) of the sciatic nerve, and they display time-dependent changes, along with a behavioral trajectory. Correspondingly, dopamine (DA) content shows the reverse characteristic change to MIF with a time-dependent curve in post-surgical behavior. The levels of both MIF and DA are reversed by the MIF tautomerase inhibitor ISO-1, and a negative relationship exists between MIF and DA. The reversed role of ISO-1 also affects tyrosine hydroxylase expression. Furthermore, CCI induces Th promoter CpG site methylation in the L-SC and VTA areas, and this effect could be abated by ISO-1 administration. G9a/SUV39H1 and H3K9me2/H3K9me3 enrichment within the Th promoter region following CCI in the L-SC and VTA was also decreased by ISO-1. In cultured dopaminergic neurons, rMIF enhanced the recruitment of G9a and SUV39H1, followed by an increase in H3K9me2/H3K9me3. These molecular changes correspondingly exhibited alterations in Th promoter CpG site methylation and pain behaviors. In summary, MIF functions as a braking factor in curbing dopaminergic descending inhibition in peripheral nerve injury-induced hypersensitivity by mediating Th gene methylation through G9a/SUV39H1-associated H3K9 methylation.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the effects of programmed intermittent epidural bolus (PIEB) with continuous epidural infusion (CEI) at different time intervals for epidural labor analgesia.Methods One hundred and eighty-six nulliparous parturients were randomized to the groups P1, P2 and C.Epidural infusion was given initial loading dose: 10 ml (0.125% ropivacaine with 0.4 μg/ml sufentanil), followed by maintaining dose: 0.08% ropivacaine with 0.4 μg/ml sufentanil.Group P1 was given basal infusion 5 ml per 30 min, 30 min after the initial dose;group P2 was given basal infusion of 10 ml per 60 min, 60 min after the initial dose;CEI basal infusion of 10 ml/h immediately after the initial dose;PCEA (patient-controlled epidural analgesia dose) 5 ml (lockout interval: 30 min).The baseline maternal heart rate, noninvasive arterial blood pressure, SpO2, respiratory rate, and fetal heart rate tracing were recorded.The visual analog scale (VAS) was recorded during the first stage of labor and at full cervical dilation.The degree of motor block was assessed in both lower extremities using the modified Bromage score (MBS).The maximum blocked segment, the consumption of anesthetic, delivery mode, amount of oxytocin, The number of cases of motor block and intrapartum fever, the fetal Apgar scores,adverse reactions,maternal satisfaction score were recorded.Results The VAS obviously decreased in the three groups since receiving labor analgesia (P<0.05).The ratio of VAS score more than 3 scales in group PIEBⅡ was significantly lower than that in groups P1 and C (P<0.05).The maximum blocked segment increased in group P1, while The incidence of unilateral block was significantly decreased in group P2 (P<0.05).The total drug consumption.And the toatal number of PCA were decreased obviously in group PIEB (P<0.05).The initial PCA time was significantly prolonged in group P2 (P<0.05).The number of instrumental midwifery and intrapartum fever in group P2 were significantly lower than that in group C (P<0.05).Conclusion Programmed intermittent epidural bolus at the beginning 60 min intervals after the initial dose for epidural labor analgesia is scientific and effective.
ABSTRACT
Objective To observe the analgesic efficacy of epidural morphine for postpartum perineal pain in patients undergoing episiotomy.Methods After institutional reviewing board approval and patient consent,a total of 145 parturients requesting epidural labor analgesia and under-going episiotomy were randomized into three groups:M1,M2,and C,where in morphine 1 mg dis-solved in saline 10 ml,morphine 2 mg dissolved in saline 10 ml,or sole saline 10 ml was epidurally given immediately after umbilical cord clamp,respectively.Perineal pain at rest and movement within 24 hours after vaginal delivery were evaluated with present pain intensity (PPI).Further,the time in-terval between a moderate or severe PPI and epidural drug treatment were recorded.Besides,epidural morphine related side effects including nausea,vomiting,pruritus,and urinary retention were ob-served as well.Results The proportion of patients with moderate or severe pain at rest was signifi-cantly lower in group M2 (2.1%)compared to group M1 (15.7)and group C (19.1%)(P <0.05). Further,the time interval between a moderate or severe PPI and epidural drug treatment was signifi-cantly longer in group M2 (15.7±1.4 h)compared to group M1 (11.0±0.9 h)and group C (11.0 ±1.0 h)(P <0.05).No significant difference was found between groups M1 and group C with regard to morphine efficacy.However,the accumulated side effects including nausea,vomiting,pruritus, and urinary retention prominently increased in group M2 (102.1%)compared to group M1 (43.1%) and group C (12.8%)(P <0.05).Conclusion Although epidural morphine 2 mg may significantly decrease and postpone the occurrence of moderate or severe postpartum perineal pain,however,it de-serves consideration before clinical use owing to the increased side effects.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the effect of wire?reinforced epidural catheters on the success rate of epidural catheterization for labor analgesia. Methods A total of 200 nulliparous parturients who re?ceived labor analgesia voluntarily, of American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status Ⅰ or Ⅱ, aged 20-45 yr, with body mass index<35 kg∕m2, were divided into 2 groups (n=100 each) using a random number table: common catheter group ( group Ⅰ) and reinforced catheter group ( group Ⅱ) . After suc?cessful epidural puncture, the corresponding catheter was inserted inⅠandⅡgroups. The development of difficult insertion, intravascular catheter insertion or paresthesia during insertion was defined as a failure of epidural catheterization. The occurrence of the failure of epidural catheterization was recorded. Results Compared with group Ⅰ, the failure rate of epidural catheterization was significantly decreased in groupⅡ( P<0.05) . Conclusion Wire?reinforced epidural catheters can raise the success rate of epidural catheter?ization for labor analgesia.
ABSTRACT
Objective To evaluate the efficacy of programmed intermittent epidural bolus ( PIEB) for labor analgesia in parturients and the effect on neonates. Methods Two hundred primiparae with a sin?gleton fetus in vertex presentation, who requested labor analgesia, aged 21-36 yr, at 37 to 40 week gesta?tion, with cervical dilatation 1-3 cm, of American Society of Anesthesiologists physical statusⅠ or Ⅱ, were divided into 2 groups ( n=100 each) using a random number table: PIEB group and continuous epi?dural infusion ( CEI) group. PIEB regimens were programmed as 10 ml∕h starting from 1 h after the initial bolus. The programmed bolus dose was fixed at 5 ml with the lock?out interval set at 30 min. The drugs used in the analgesic pump were 0?08% ropivacaine and 0?4μg∕ml sufentanil in both groups. From the on?set of labor analgesia until 1 h after delivery, visual analog scale score was used to evaluate the uterine con?traction pain every hour. The modified Bromage score was used to assess the degree of motor block. The up?per spread of sensory block, total consumption of drugs, the number of attempts, duration of every stage, delivery mode, postpartum hemorrhage volume, and occurrence of adverse reactions ( dyspnea, hypoten?sion, pruritus, nausea, vomiting and urinary retention) were recorded. Apgar scores of the neonates were recorded, and the degree of primiparae′satisfaction with the analgesic efficacy was scored. Results Com?pared with group CEI, visual analog scale scores at T2?5 , the total consumption of drugs and the number of attempts were significantly decreased, and the satisfaction score was significantly increased in group PIEB ( P0?05). Conclusion PIEB provides reliable efficacy for labor analgesia in parturients, the degree of primiparae′satisfaction is high without increasing the occurrence of adverse reactions, and it exerts no effect on the neonates.
ABSTRACT
Objective To study the effects of remifentanil with propofol and no positive pressure ventilation induction of anesthesia in 5 minutes-cesarean section on parturients and neonates. Methods Sixty pregnant women were randomly divided into ketamine anesthesia group (group L) and remifentanil anesthesia group (group R).In group L,anaesthesia was induced with ketamin 0.5 mg/kg+propofol 2 mg/kg and group R with remifentanil 1 μg/kg+propofol 2 mg/kg.Blood pres-sure,heart rate,oxygen saturation and pulse rate of maternal were recorded at intubation (T1 ),inci-sion (T2 ),and cutting the umbilical cord (T3 ).The infant Apgar scores at 1 minute and 5 minute af-ter birth,the delivery time of the fetus and umbilical blood gas values were recorded.Results The systolic blood pressure (SBP)and heart rate (HR)were significantly higher at T1 and T2 in group L than those in group R (P <0.05).The SBP,DBP and HR had not significant difference at T3 .The delivery time of the fetus and the infant Apgar scores at 1 minute and 5 minute between the two groups had no statistically significant differences.Conclusion Remifentanil combined with propofol and without positive pressure ventilation induction of anesthesia can be safely used in 5 minutes-cesar-ean section.The maternal hemodynamics is more stable without increasing the risk of neonatal respira-tory depression.
ABSTRACT
Objective To compare the analgesic efficacy and safety of the sole local anesthetic ropivacaine with the combination of both local anesthetic ropivacaine and opioidergic analgesic sufen-tanil given epidurally on the labor pain control.Methods After institutional review board approval and patient consent,a total of 481 nulliparas requesting epidural labor analgesia were randomized into two groups:a sole local anesthetic group (0.125% ropivacaine,group R)and a combination of local anesthetic and opioidergic analgesic group (0.125% ropivacaine+0.3 μg/ml sufentanil,group RS). Analgesic efficacy was measured using numerical rating scale (NRS)of pain and maternal visual ana-logue scale (VAS)analgesia satisfaction with regard to the first and the second stage of labor.Anal-gesic safety was measured with the Bromage scale of maternal safety and epidural labor analgesia re-lated side effects,as well as fetal safety including Apgar scoring and umbilical cord artery blood gas a-nalysis.Results A total of 346 participants completed the study,with 1 64 and 182 women in each group R and RS,respectively.The median NRS pain score during the first stage of labor was signifi-cantly lower in the combination group (2.2,IQR:1.8-2.7 )comparing to the sole local analgesic group (2.4,IQR:2-2.8)(P <0.001).No significant difference was observed in NRS pain score dur-ing the second stage of labor.Patients in both groups were rated the same VAS satisfaction of analge-sia.Patients in the sole local analgesic group experienced fewer side effects than those in the combina-tion group (37.7% versus 47.2%,P =0.082).The incidence of 1-min Apgar≤7 was lower in the sole local analgesic group 2 (1.2%) than the combination group 10 (5.5%) (P < 0.05 ). Conclusion The sole local anesthetic ropivacaine produces a comparable labor analgesic effect as the combination of both local anesthetic ropivacaine and opioidergic analgesic sufentanil but the former has less maternal side effects,and less incidence of lower 1-min Apgar scoring.
ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:To observe the anesthetic effect of dexmedetomidine in pelvic floor reconstructive surgery of elderly patients with pelvic organ prolapse(POP). METHODS:60 elderly patients with pelvic floor reconstructive surgery were randomly di-vided into observation group and control group. Observation group was treated with 0.5 μg/kg dexmedetomidine by pumping and control group was treated with 0.125 ml/kg 0.9% sodium chloride injection by pumping 15 min before anesthesia,and conventional intravenous induction was conducted after 15 min. MAP,HR and bispectral index(BIS)in entering the room(T0),5 min after ad-ministration(T1),immediate intubation(T2),1 min after intubation(T3),5 min after intubation(T4),surgical skin incision(T5), immediate extubation(T6)and 5 min after extubation(T7),restlessness score,sedation score,recovery time and incidence of ad-verse reactions in 2 groups were observed. RESULTS:MAP and HR in observation group in T1-7 were significantly lower than T0 and control group,MAP and HR in control group in T2-7 were significantly high than T0 except that T1 was significantly lower than T0,the differences were statistically significant(P0.05). Restlessness score in observation group was significantly lower than control group,sedation score was significantly higher than control group,the differ-ence was statistically significant(P0.05). There were no obvious adverse reactions in 2 groups during treatment. CONCLUSIONS:Dexmedetomidine can effectively reduce the stress response and maintain cycle stability in the treatment of elderly patients with pelvic floor reconstructive surgery,with good safety.
ABSTRACT
JUSTIFICATIVA E OBJETIVOS: A hipotensão materna associada à raquianestesia no parto cesáreo é a complicação mais frequente e problemática, com sérios riscos para a mãe e comprometimento do bem-estar neonatal. Nesse contexto, o volume efetivo de cristaloides por via intravenosa como uma estratégia de prevensão ainda não foi estimado. MÉTODOS: Oitenta e cinco parturientes com estado físico ASA I/II submetidas à cesariana seletiva foram selecionadas e 67 mulheres elegíveis foram designadas para receber uma pré-carga de cristaloides com 2 mL de bupivacaína hiperbárica a 0,5% (10 mg) mais 50 µg de morfina. O volume de cristaloides foi determinado por um método sequencial up-and-down. Os cristaloides foram infundidos a uma taxa de 100 a 150 mL.min-1 antes da anestesia espinal. O volume inicial de cristaloides foi de 5 mL.kg-1. Os dados do efeito do volume foram ajustados para o modelo sigmoidal de máxima eficácia e a mediana do volume efetivo (VE50) e seu intervalo de confiança (IC) de 95% foram calculados usando a estimativa de máxima verossimilhança e a regressão logística de Firth corrigida. RESULTADOS: Sessenta e sete parturientes completaram o estudo e foram analisadas. Vinte e oito pacientes (41,8%) desenvolveram hipotensão, com queda da pressão arterial sistólica (PAS) superior a 20% do valor basal. O VE50 de cristaloides foi de 12,6 mL.kg-1 (IC 95%, 11,6 a 14,8 mL.kg-1). Com a correção de Firth, a probabilidade conjunta do volume efetivo de cristaloides a 13 mL.kg-1 foi de 50,2% (IC 95%, 30,0% a 83,1%). CONCLUSÕES: O VE50 estimado da pré-carga de cristaloides necessário para prevenir a hipotensão induzida por anestesia espinhal em parto cesáreo é de 13 mL.kg-1 (valor aproximado). Porém, a profilaxia ou terapia com vasoconstritores também deve ser preparada e administrada no momento oportuno.
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Spinal anesthesia-associated maternal hypotension in Cesarean delivery is the most frequent and troublesome complication, posing serious risks to mothers and compromising neonatal well-being. The effective volume of intravenous crystalloid as the preventive strategy in this context has not been estimated. METHODS: Eighty-five parturients with ASA physical status I/II undergoing elective Cesarean delivery were screened and 67 eligible women were assigned to receive pre-spinal crystalloid loading. Hyperbaric 0.5% bupivacaine 2 mL (10 mg) plus morphine 50 µg was given to all patients. The volume of crystalloid was determined by an up-and-down sequential method. The crystalloid was infused at a rate of 100-150 mL.min-1 prior to the spinal anesthetic injection. The initial volume of crystalloid was 5 mL.kg-1. Volume-effect data were fitted to a sigmoidal maximum efficacy model and the median effective volume (EV50) and corresponding 95% confidence interval (95% CI) were estimated using maximum likelihood estimation and logistic regression with Firth's correction. RESULTS: A total of 67 subjects completed the study and were analyzed. Twenty-eight (41.8%) patients developed hypotension with their systolic blood pressure (SBP) decreasing > 20% of baseline. The EV50 of crystalloid were 12.6 mL.kg-1 (95% CI, 11.6 to 14.8 mL.kg-1). With Firth's correction, the pooled probability of an effective preventive volume of crystalloid at 13 mL.kg-1 was 50.2% (95% CI, 30% to 83.1%). CONCLUSIONS: The estimated EV50 of the preloaded crystalloid required to prevent spinal anesthesia-induced hypotension in a Cesarean section is, approximately, 13 mL.kg-1. However, prophylactic or therapeutic vasoconstrictors should also be prepared and administered at an appropriate time.

Objective To investigate the effect of preemptive parecoxib on blood coagulation in patients undergoing abdominal hysterectomy. Methods This was a randomized, double-blind controlled study. Seventy ASA Ⅰ or Ⅱ patients aged 38-56 yr weighing 50-75 kg undergoing abdominal hysterectomy under combined spinal-epidural anesthesia were randomized to one of 2 groups (n=35 each): parecoxib group (group P) received intravenous parecoxib 40 mg/2 ml at 20 min before anesthesia and control group (group C) received normal saline 2 ml instead of parecoxib. Both groups received patient-controlled intravenous analgesia (PCIA) with butorphanol after surgery. The PCIA solution contained butorphanol 0.2 mg/kg and ondansetron 4 mg in normal saline 100 ml.The PCIA was set up with background infusion 2 ml/h, incremental dose 2 ml, and lockout interval 15 min. VAS score was used to assess the intensity of pain (O= no pain, 10 = worst pain). Venous blood samples were taken before and at 30 min and 2 h after parecoxib or normal saline administration for coagulation test and platelet count.The postoperative ambulation time and adverse response were recorded. Butorphanol consumption per hour during postoperative analgesia and total consumption of butorphanol within 24 h after operation were also recorded. Results Compared with those before parecoxib administration, prothrombin time and thrombin time in group C and thrombin time in group P were significantly prolonged and fibrinogen concentration was significantly lower in group C at 30 min after parecoxib administration (P＜ 0.05), but no significant difference was found in the other parameters of blood coagulation and platelet count at 30 min after parecoxib administration in group P ( P＞0.05).The fibrinogen concentration was significantly higher, the incidence of postoperative nausea and vomiting was significantly lower, the postoperative ambulation time was significantly shorter, and butorphanol consumption per hour during postoperative analgesia and total consumption of butorphanol within 24 h after operation were significantly lower in group P than in group C ( P＜0.05 ), but there was no significant difference in the other parameters of blood coagulation and platelet count between group P and group C ( P ＞ 0.05 ). Conclusion Preemptive parecoxib 40 mg can enhance blood coagulation in patients undergoing abdominal hysterectomy.
ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE To investigate the classification and antibiotics resistance of Staphylococcus in children with septicemia in recent two years and to provide data for clinical treatment. METHODS All the blood specimens delivered by pediatrics were identified and detected the antibiotic resistance with Microscan Auto SCAN4. RESULTS Totally 268 Staphylococcus strains were collected. Among them,S. aureus was 114 strains (42.5%),coagulase-negative Staphylococcus were 154 srains. Among 114 S. aureus strains,meticillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) were 79 strains (69.3%). Among 154 coagulase-negative Staphylococcus strains,meticillin-resistant coagulase-negative Staphylococcus aureus (MRCNS) were 102 strains (66.2%). The drug sensitivity results showed that meticillin-resistant staphylococcus (MRS) were highly resistant to 15 commnly used antibiotics than meticillin-sensitive Staphylococcus (MSS) and showing multi-drug resistance. No vancomycin-resistant strains were found.CONCLUSIONS Children with septicemia infected by Staphylococcus are increasing recently. Identification and antibiotic resistance of clinical isolated Staphylococcus must be strengthened,and give the effective data for clinicians.
