Effects of propofol on cerebrospinal fluid pressure in patients underwent intracranial operation / 医学研究生学报

Objective:To investigate the effects of propofol on cerebrospinal fluid pressure(CSFP),mean arterial pressure(MAP),cerebral perfusion pressure(CPP) and heart rate(HR)during induction of anesthesia in patients underwent intracranial operation. Methods: In 20 patients scheduled for elective craniotomy, an epidural catheter was placed into subarachanoid. Fentanyl(2 ?g/kg), intravenousl Midazolam (0.04~0.05mg/kg) and propofol (2mg/kg) were administered respectively prior to induction of anesthesia. CSFP,MAP,CPP and HR were monitored at 2min,5min after propofol administration and 2,5,10min after another supplementary dose of propofol 1mg/kg addendum during endotracheal intubation. Results: Compared with the preanesthetic baseline values, CSFP, CPP, and MAP all decreased significantly during induction(P

Desflurane Anesthesia Used in Patients undergoing Intracranial Operations / 临床麻醉学杂志

Objective: To investigate the appropriateness of desflurane anesthesia used in patients undergoing intracranial operations. Methods: Sixteen patients were scheduled for removal of supratentorial mass. A radial artery catheter and a subarachanoid catheter were placed respectively prior to induetion of anesthesia. MAP, cerebrospinal pressure (CSFP), PETCO2 and HR were monitored. Anesthesia was induced with intravenous midazolan, fentanyl, propofol and vecuronium. After endotracheal intubation, anesthesia was maintained by desfurane inhalation in a concentration of 6 % (1MAC) throughout the operation. MAP, CSFP and PETCO2 were recorded before and during induction, at 20min, 30min, 40min and 50min during desflurane inhalation. Results: Compared with the baseline data recorded before anesthesia, CSFP and MAP were decreased significantly during induction. The CSFP tended to increase at 20 min after inhalation of 6 % desflurane, but remained below the baseline till 50min. MAP was decreased following inhalation of 6 % desflurane and kept relatively stable thereafter. No significnt change in HR was noted. Conclusion:Under the condition of PETCO2 28-30mmHg, 1MAC desflurane anesthesia can be used safely without any increase in ICP in patients undergoing intracranial operations.
