ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:To investigate the influence and safety of etomidate or sevoflurane combined with sacral or epidural block anesthesia on anesthesia effects and inflammatory factors. METHODS:160 children undergoing surgery selected from our hospital during Feb. 2012 to Dec. 2015 were divided into group A and B according to random number table,with 80 cases in each group. Group A was given etomidate 3 mg/(kg·h)for anesthesia maintenance+sacral or epidural block;group B received sevoflu-rane inhalation 1%-3% for anesthesia maintenance+sacral or epidural block. The anesthesia effects were compared between 2 groups as well as the levels of serum S100β,NSE,Aβ and inflammatory factors before and after surgery. The occurrence of ADR was observed. RESULTS:There was no statistical significance in SpO2 between 2 groups before and after surgery(P>0.05). The anesthesia induction time,postoperative recovery time and heart rate of group A were significantly longer or higher than those of group B,with statistical significance(P0.05). After surgery,the levels of serum S100β,NSE,Aβ,CRP,IL-2 and IL-6 were significantly increased in 2 groups,and group A was significantly higher than group B,with statistical significance (P0.05). No obvious ADR was found in 2 groups. CONCLUSIONS:Sevoflurane combined with sacral or epidural block anesthesia is better than etomi-date combin ation anesthesia,with in mild inflammatory reaction and good safety.
