ABSTRACT

Objective:To investigate perioperative management of anesthesia for septic shock.Methods:Anesthesia performed on an elderly patient with septic shock who underwent emergency surgery in Beijing Hospital was analyzed and summarized, with a literature review.Results:Etomidate, Ketamine, cis Atracurium and Remifentanil are preferred for anesthesia induction, and Remifentanil and Sevoflurane are the first choices for anesthesia maintenance.Combined application with Dexmedetomidine may improve patients' prognosis.For septic shock patients with new-onset atrial fibrillation, β-blockers are preferred for perioperative anti-arrhythmia.If necessary, propafenone or amiodarone can be used for cardioversion.Perioperative ultrasound evaluation may be used to guide perioperative fluid therapy and vasoactive drug administration for septic shock in the future.Conclusions:Anesthesiologists should place a high value on and have a good command of the main aspects of perioperative management of anesthesia for septic shock.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To investigate the effects of different mechanical ventilation methods on respiratory function in elderly patients in the steep Trendelenburg position undergoing general anesthesia.Methods:This was a randomized controlled study.Sixty patients scheduled for elective laparoscopic radical prostatectomy in the steep Trendelenburg position under general anesthesia were randomly divided into the lung protective ventilation strategy group(the P group)and the traditional ventilation strategy group(the T group)(n=30, each group). The setting for the P group included FiO 2 at 50%, tidal volume at 6 ml/kg, respiratory rate at 14-16/min, positive end expiratory pressure(PEEP)at 5 cmH 2O, with sustained lung inflation by pressure control every 30 min and the pressure at 30 cmH 2O for 30 s. The setting for the T group included FiO 2 at 50%, tidal volume at 10 ml/kg, and respiratory rate at 10-12/min.Anesthesia was maintained by sevoflurane, remifentanil and cis-atracurium.Driving pressure(DP), mean airway pressure(P mean)and end-tidal carbon dioxide(EtCO 2)were recorded at T1(5 mins after intubation), T2(after pneumoperitoneum), T3(30 mins after pneumoperitoneum), T4(1h after pneumoperitoneum), T5(2h after pneumoperitoneum), T6(3h after pneumoperitoneum)and T7(end of surgery). Arterial blood partial pressure of carbon dioxide(PaCO 2), alveolar-arterial oxygen partial pressure difference[P(A-a)O 2]and oxygenation index(OI)were recorded at T0(entering the operating room), T1, T3, T4, T5, T6, T8(after extubation)and T9(24h after operation). Arterial-end-tidal carbon dioxide partial pressure difference[P(a-et)CO 2]was recorded at T3, T4, T5 and T6. Results:DP in the P group was lower than in the T group at each time point( P<0.01). The P mean in the P group at each time point was higher than in the T group( P<0.01). EtCO 2 was higher in the P group than in the T group at T1( t=0.751, P<0.01)and T2( t=2.830, P<0.01). PaCO 2 was higher in the P group than in the T group at T1( t=1.435, P<0.01), T3( t=2.469, P<0.01)and T4( t=1.359, P<0.05). There were no statistic differences in P(A-a)O 2, OI and P(a-et)CO 2 between the two groups at any time point( P>0.05). Conclusions:Compared with the traditional ventilation strategy, the lung protective ventilation strategy has lower DP and higher P mean during laparoscopic radical prostatectomy, while it has no advantage in lung oxygenation.The lung protection ventilation strategy can be safely used in laparoscopic radical prostatectomy in the steep Trendelenburg position under general anesthesia.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To analyze the incidence of postoperative pulmonary complications and related factors in elderly patients after major abdominal surgery.Methods:Clinical data of elderly patients undergone major abdominal surgeries at Beijing Hospital were retrospectively analyzed.The incidence of postoperative pulmonary complications was studied, and related factors were analyzed using Logistic regression analysis.Results:A total of 96 cases were included.The incidence of postoperative pulmonary complications was 53.1%(51/96)in elderly patients after major abdominal surgery.Logistic regression analysis showed laparoscopy was a protective factor for postoperative pulmonary complications( OR=0.293, 95% CI: 0.100-0.865, P=0.026), while driving pressure > 18 cmH 2O(1 cmH 2O=0.098 kPa)( OR=3.300, 95% CI: 1.148-9.434, P=0.027)and intraoperative bleeding volume > 500 ml( OR=4.444, 95% CI: 1.091-18.180, P=0.037)were risk factors for postoperative pulmonary complications. Conclusions:Attention should be paid to the incidence of postoperative pulmonary complications in elderly patients after major abdominal surgery.Laparoscopy is a protective factor for postoperative pulmonary complications, while driving pressure more than 18 cmH 2O and intraoperative bleeding volume more than 500 ml can increase the risk of postoperative pulmonary complications.

ABSTRACT

Safe airway management is the primary task of anesthesiologists.Anesthesiologists must have good airway management skills including dealing with all kinds of difficult airway in time and effectively to ensure the ventilation and oxygenation of patients and to avoid regurgitation and aspiration.The second World Airway Management Meeting held in Netherlands in November 2019 discussed fourteen topics related to airway management.This article will focus on six hot issues in this session, namely, 1.Human factors and safe airway management; 2.Management of patients with full stomach; 3.Difficult Airway Society (DAS) Awake Tracheal Intubation (ATI) guidelines; 4.Whether awake tracheal intubation can solve all the difficult airway, and whether succinylcholine is out of date; 5.The Universal Management of Airways Guidelines; 6.Transnasal Humidified Rapid-Insufflation Ventilatory Exchange (THRIVE). The purpose of interpreting and analyzing the above hot issues is to timely update the knowledge of airway management for anesthesiologists, and to improve the understanding and mastery of airway management, especially difficult airway management.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To evaluate the accuracy of point-of-care ultrasound in diagnosis of guidewire tip misplacement during central venous catheterization.Methods:Ninety patients of both sexes, aged 18-90 yr, with body mass index of 15.5-44.8 kg/m 2, of American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status Ⅰ-Ⅳ, scheduled for elective surgery with general anesthesia requiring central venous catheter (CVC) insertion through bilateral internal jugular veins or subclavian veins, were enrolled.The ultrasound probe was used, and the target vessel was selected.Anesthesia was induced with propofol, sufentanil and cisatracurium, and positive pressure ventilation was applied after endotracheal intubation.After central venous puncture was successfully performed under ultrasound guidance, the guidewire was inserted to a predetermined length, and the tips of the guidewire were confirmed with X-ray film and with point-of-care ultrasound including a phased array probe and linear array probe, and the results were recorded.The CVC was inserted after confirming the guidewire tip position.Agreement between the guidewire tip misplacement confirmed with point-of-care ultrasound and with bedside X-ray film was analyzed using Kappa statistics.The sensitivity, specificity, and total coincidence rate, rate of misdiagnosis, rate of missed diagnosis, Youden index, odds product, positive predictive value and negative predictive value of the guidewire tip misplacement were calculated during central venous catheterization confirmed using point-of-care ultrasound. Results:Among the 90 patients, 17 cases had guidewire tip misplacement, and the incidence of guidewire tip misplacement was 19%.Point-of-care ultrasound and bedside X-ray film were consistent in the diagnosis of guidewire tip misplacement during CVC insertion (Kappa value 0.945, P<0.05). The sensitivity of point-of-care ultrasound in diagnosing guidewire tip misplacement during CVC insertion was 97.44 %, specificity 97.78%, total coincidence rate 97.67%, rate of misdiagnosis 2.22%, rate of missed diagnosis 2.56%, Youden index 95.22%, odds product 1 672, positive predictive value 95.00%, and negative predictive value 98.88%. Conclusion:Point-of-care ultrasound can be used to diagnose guidewire tip malposition during central venous catheterization.

ABSTRACT

Data of patients underwent thoracic surgeries were retrospectively collected in our center from November 2016 to January 2019.The last recorded tidal volume and driving pressure before two-lung ventilation were selected.Patents were classified into driving pressure increase group (>15 cmH 2O) and normal group.The baseline characteristics, parameters of pulmonary function, left one-lung ventilation and protective ventilation strategies were recorded.Logistic regression analysis was used to identify the risk factors for driving pressure increase, correlation analyses between predicted body weight and total lung capacity and between forced vital capacity and total lung capacity were performed.The Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) curve was used to analyze the accuracy of the ratio of tidal volume to corrected forced vital capacity in predicting driving pressure increase.Sixty-two patients were included in this study.Body mass index, left one-lung ventilation and the ratio of tidal volume to corrected forced vital capacity ratio were the risk factors for driving pressure increase ( P<0.05 or 0.01). Predicted body weight (correlation coefficient was 0.66, P<0.01) and forced vital capacity (correlation coefficient was 0.75, P<0.01)were both positively correlated with total lung capacity, but the two coefficients were statistically significant difference ( P<0.05). The area under the ROC curve of the ratio of tidal volume to corrected forced vital capacity in predicting driving pressure increase was 0.846 (95% CI 0.749-0.943) ( P<0.01), the diagnostic threshold was 0.312, the sensitivity and specificity of this threshold were 0.800 and 0.781 respectively, so the boundary of tidal volume during one-lung ventilation should be either forced vital capacity×0.149 for left one-long ventilation or forced vital capacity×0.163 for right one-lung ventilation.In conclusion, the ratio of tidal volume to corrected forced vital capacity has a higher predictive value for driving pressure increase during one-lung ventilation, and forced vital capacity can be used as a reference while calculating tidal volume.

ABSTRACT

Objective@#To observe whether the active forced-air warming has the same efficacy on the prevention of perioperative hypothermia in the elderly as compared with young patients.@*Methods@#This was a prospective, randomized, controlled clinical trial.Forty patients scheduled for abdominal surgery under general anesthesia were allocated to two groups: the elderly group and the young group(n=20, each). All patients received active forced-air warming at 20-30 min before induction of anaesthesia till leaving the operation room.Blood products and peritoneal lavage fluids were warmed to 37℃, and other intravenous fluids were at room-temperature.The core temperatures were recorded after entering the operation room(baseline), before induction of anaesthesia, at 15 min intervals after induction of anaesthesia, at the end of surgery and before leaving the operation room.The postoperative shivering and adverse reactions were also recorded.@*Results@#The core temperature was lower in elderly patients than in young patients at baseline and at each time points after 30 min of induction of anaesthesia(P<0.05). In elderly patients, the core temperature was significantly lower before leaving operation room than at the baseline(t=2.353, P=0.03), but in young patients, no significant difference was found in the core temperature between at the baseline and before leaving operation room(t=0.233, P=0.818). The incidence of intra-operative hypothermia was higher in elderly patients than in young patients(40.0% or 8/20 vs.5.0% or 1/20, c2=7.025, P=0.008).@*Conclusions@#During abdominal surgery under general anesthesia, active forced-air warming cannot effectively prevent perioperative hypothermia in elderly patients as compared with young patients.

ABSTRACT

Objective To evaluate the efficacy of dexmedetomidine combined with remifentanil for drug-induced sleep endoscopy (DISE) in the patients with snoring. Methods Sixty patients of both sexes with snoring, aged 18-61 yr, with body mass index of 21. 0-33. 1 kg∕m2 , of American Society of Anesthe-siologists physical statusⅠ or Ⅱ, scheduled for elective DISE, were randomly divided into either dexme-detomidine combined with propofol group (group P) or dexmedetomidine combined with remifentanil group (group R), with 30 patients in each group. Dexmedetomidine was infused within 10 min in a loading dose of 0. 6 μg∕kg, followed by an infusion of 0. 6 μg·kg-1 ·h-1 for 10 min in both groups. Then propofol was given by target-controlled infusion with the initial target effect-site concentration (Ce) of 1. 0 μg∕ml in group P, and remifentanil was given by target-controlled infusion with the initial target Ce of 1. 5 ng∕ml in group R. At 2 min after the target effect-site and plasma concentrations were balanced, the Ces of propofol and remifentanil were adjusted by increments of 0. 2 μg∕ml and 0. 2 ng∕ml, respectively, until satisfactory snoring occurred and then the Ce was maintained at this level in P and R groups. Bispectral index value was re-corded at 5 min after admission to the operating room (T1 ), at 20 min of dexmedetomidine infusion (T2 ), at 2 min after the target effect-site and plasma concentrations were balanced (T3 ), at the beginning of DISE (T4 ), when the nasopharyngolarygnoscope reached the site of oropharynx (T5 ) and at the end of DISE (T6 ). Observer's Assessment of Alertness∕Sedation scale scores were recorded at T1-4 . The time for prepar-ing sedation, recovery time, the lowest value of SpO2 and development of adverse events were recorded. Re-sults Sixty patients completed DISE successfully. Compared with group P, the bispectral index value at T3-6 was significantly increased, the time for preparing sedation was prolonged, the recovery time was short-ened, the lowest value of SpO2 was increased, and the incidence of respiratory depression was decreased in group R (P< 0. 05). There was no significant difference in Observer's Assessment of Alertness∕Sedation scale scores at T1-4 between two groups ( P> 0. 05). Conclusion Combination of dexmedetomidine and remifentanil produces better efficacy for DISE than combination of dexmedetomidine and propofol in the pa-tients with snoring.

ABSTRACT

Objective To determine the relationship between neuronuscular block induced by cisatracurium for tracheal intubation during anesthesia induction and types of myasthenia gravis (MG).Methods Sixty-five patients of both sexes with MG,aged 20-75 yr,weighing 53-92 kg,with body height of 155-185 cm,of American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status Ⅰ or Ⅱ,undergoing elective videoassisted thoracoscopic thymectomy,were enrolled in the study.Among the 65 patients,there were 8 patients with ocular MG (type Ⅰ),19 patients with mild generalized MG (type]Ⅱ a),33 patients with subacute generalized MG (type Ⅱ b),2 patients with acute MG (type Ⅲ) and 3 patients with late severe MG (type Ⅳ).Neuromuscular monitoring was initiated when the patients lost consciousness after induction of anesthesia.Cisatracurium was administrated with the initial dose of 0.05 mg/kg,and if T1 depression was less than 95% within 6 min,cisatracurium 0.015 mg/kg was intravenously injected until T1 depression was more than 95%.The patients were then tracheally intubated.The amount of cisatracurium consumed for intubation,onset time (from the beginning of cisatracurium injection to T1 depression >95%) and recovery time (recovery of T4/T1 to 25% of control height) of neuromuscular block were recorded.T1 depression > 95% within 6 min after administration of 1-fold ED95 cistracuriun was defined as sensitivity to muscle relaxants.The requirement for cistracurium > 1-fold ED95 when T1 depression > 95% was defined as insensitivity to muscle relaxants.The proportion of sensitivity/insensitivity was calculated.Results There was no significant difference in the amount of cisatracurium consumed for intubation and onset time and recovery time of neuromuscular block between patients with type Ⅰ and those with type Ⅱ a (P>0.05).Compared with patients with type Ⅰ and type]Ⅱ a,the amount of cisatracurium consumed for intubation was significantly decreased,the proportion of sensitivity/insensitivity was increased,the onset time was shortened,and the recovery time was prolonged in patients with type Ⅱ b (P<0.05).Conclusion With the severity of MG,the consumption of cisatracurium is gradually decreased when used for tracheal intubation during anesthesia induction,and the sensitivity is gradually increased in the patients with MG.

Objective To investigate the safety and efficiency of a reinforced laryngeal mask airway(LMA) with drain tube in elderly patient undergoing endoscopic sinus surgery.Methods Sixty elderly patients were selected and randomly divided into two groups:a reinforced LMA group (group R,n=30)and a reinforced endotracheal tube group(group T,n=30).Observation items include the difficulty degree of device insertion,the time for successful insertion,the number of attempts required for successful insertion,fiberoptic view of glottis,the difficulty degree of gastric tube insertion,oropharyngeal leak pressure(OLP),ventilatory indicators at a certain time,haemodynamics during insertion,the blood stain on the mask were compared between the two group.The postoperative complications 1,6,24 hours after operation were recorded.Results There were no significant differences in general conditions,the successful insertion rate at first attempt,the total success insertion rate,airway quality and the anesthetic drug dosage between the two groups.The insertion time was shorter in group R than in group T [(34.1± 13.0 s)vs (45.4± 15.6 s),t =5.274,P=0.001].The incidence of cough during extubation was less in group R than in group T [0% (0/30) vs.53.3%(16/30),x2 =21.222,P=0.000].Conclusions The reinforced LMA with drain tube is safe and effective for elderly patients during endoscopic sinus surgery.

ABSTRACT

Objective To evaluate the efficacy of different doses of dexmedetomidine combined with propofol for drug-induced sleep endoscopy (DISE) in the patients with snoring.Methods Sixty patients with snoring,aged 24-62 yr,with body mass index of 24-37 kg/m2,of American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status Ⅰ or Ⅱ,scheduled for elective DISE,were randomly divided into either group Ⅰ or group Ⅱ,with 30 patients in each group.In Ⅰ and Ⅱ groups,dexmedetomidine was infused over 10 min in a loading dose of 0.4 and 0.8 μg/kg,respectively,followed by an infusion of 0.4 μg · kg-1 · h-1.At 15 min of dexmedetomidine infusion,propofol was given by target-controlled infusion with the initial target plasma concentration (Cp) of 1.0 μg/ml.At 2 min after the target effect-site and plasma concentrations were balanced,the Cp of propofol was increased/decreased by 0.2 μg/ml to maintain the Cp of propofol stable during DISE.Bispectral index (BIS) value was recorded before anesthesia (T1),at 10 and 15 min of dexmedetomidine infusion (T2,3),at 2 min after the target effect-site and plasma concentrations were balanced (T4),at the beginning of DISE (T5),when the fiberoptic laryngoscope was placed at the site of oropharynx (T6),at the end of DISE (T7),at emergence (T8),and while discharge from the examination room (T9).Richmond Agitation Sedation Scale (RASS) scores were recorded at T1-4.Sleep was recorded within 15 min of dexmedetomidine infusion.The emergence time,discharge time,and anesthetics-related adverse events were recorded.Results All the patients completed DISE successfully.BIS values were maintained at 75-90,and RASS scores ≤ 4 during dexmedetomidine infusion.BIS values were maintained at 65-75 during DISE.Compared with group Ⅰ,BIS values were significantly decreased at T4,and RASS scores were significantly increased at T2-4,the sleep rate was significantly increased within 15 min of dexmedetomidine infusion,the Cp of propofol was significantly decreased during DISE,the emergence time was significantly prolonged (P<0.05),and no significant change was found in the discharge time and anesthetics-related adverse events in group Ⅱ (P> 0.05).Conclusion Dexmedetomidine infused at 0.4 μg · kg-1 · h-1 after infusion of a loading dose of 0.8 μg/kg combined with propofol provides better efficacy for DISE in the patients with snoring.

ABSTRACT

Objective To evaluate the feasibility of ETView visual endotracheal intubation in elderly patients with a potentially difficult airway under general anesthesia.Methods A total of 80 patients scheduled for elective surgery,with at least three characteristics indicative of an increased risk for difficult tracheal intubation and aged 65-86 years with American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) grade [Ⅱ or Ⅲ,were selected and randomly assigned into 2 groups:the control group (Group C) and the ETView visual endotracheal intubation group (Group E) (n=40 for each).After induction with propofol 0.5-1.5 mg/kg,sufentanil 0.2 μg/kg,and rocuronium 0.6mg/kg,regular tracheal intubation and ETView visual endotracheal intubation were conducted in Group C and Group E respectively.Blood pressure and heart rate were recorded before induction (T0),before initial intubation (T1),at successful intubation (T2),and 5min after successful intubation (T3).Duration of catheterization,number of intubation attempts,rate of successful intubation at first attempt and complications within 2 days of intubation were also recorded.Results The duration of catheterization and the number of intubation attempts were lower in Group E than in Group C[(34±6) s vs.(48± 22) s,(1.0±0.0) vs.(1.4±0.4),t=2.484 and 2.373,respectively,P=0.017 and 0.023,respectively].The rate of successful intubation at first attempt was higher in Group E than in GroupC (100% or 40 cases vs.75% or 30 cases),x2=5.714,P=0.017).There was no significant difference in hemodynamic changes and the rate of postoperative hoarseness between the two groups (P>0.05 for both).Conclusions ETView visual endotracheal intubation shows excellent safety in elderly patients with a difficult airway under general anesthesia,with shorter catheterization duration and a higher rate of successful intubation at first attempt than regular intubation.

ABSTRACT

Objective To determine the effective dose 50 (ED50) of sufentanil blunting the responses to double-lumen endotracheal intubation under propofol in elderly patients.Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on patients aged 65-78 years with body mass index<30 kg/m2 , American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) I or Ⅱ and Mallampati grade Ⅰ or Ⅱ who underwent onelung ventilation under general anesthesia.Induction of anesthesia was initiated with sufentanil.Then propofol was administered to maintain a bispectral index (BIS) value ranging between 45 and 55.When the patients lost consciousness, cisatracurium 0.30 mg/kg was administrated, followed by double lumen endotracheal intubation.The dose of sufentanil was determined by the up and down sequential test.The initial dose was 0.50 μg/kg and the difference between two successive doses was 0.10 μg/kg.Responses to double-lumen endotracheal intubation were defined as the increase in invasive systolic blood pressure≥20% of the baseline values and/or heart rate >90 bpm within 3 min after tracheal intubation.The ED50 (95% confidence interval) of sufentanil blunting the responses to double-lumen endotracheal intubation was calculated.Results The ED50 (95%confidence interval) of sufentanil blunting the responses to double-lumen endotracheal intubation in elderly patients was 0.331 μg/kg, and the 95% confidence interval was 0.246-0.409 μg/kg.Conclusions Under propofol to maintain BIS 45 55, the ED50 of sufentanil blunting the responses to double-lumen endotracheal intubation in elderly patients was 0.331 μg/kg.
