ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the effects of muscle relaxant antagonism on patients with residual paralysis in postanesthesia care unit (PACU).Methods The similar patients who were daily accepted into PACU were chosen to make pairs,and were randomly divided into experimental (J; n =26) and control (F; n =26) groups.On arrival to the PACU,the train-of-four ratio (TO-Fr) was assessed using electromyography.When TOFr reached 4,Grour J was given with neostigmine 40 μg/kg and atropine 20 μg/kg; Group F was given with 5ml saline.Extubation was determined with standard clinical criteria.We recorded TOFr,PaO2,PaCO2at the time point of extubation,SpO2 at the time point of left the PACU,the stay time in PACU,the incidence of respiratory dysfunction,and the side effect.Results The TOFr at the time point of extubation in group J (0.96 ± 0.04) was significantly higher than group F (0.92 ±0.06) (P ＜0.05).The stay time in PACU in group J [(26 ±5)min] was significantly less than group F [(33 ±7) min] (P ＜ 0.01).PaO2,PaCO2,extubation time,and SpO2 were no significant difference between two groups (P ＞ 0.05).Two patients in group F had respiratory dysfunction.There was no incidence of postoperative nausea,vomiting,and other side effects in two groups.Conclusions Regular muscle relaxant antagonism lowered the risk of postoperative residual muscle relaxant effect,shortened the PACU residence time,and had no postoperative nausea and vomiting(PONV) and other side effects.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate effects of different concentrations of dexmedetomidine on onset time and clinical time-effect of rocuronium in the processes of the total intravenous anesthesia.Methods Sixty patients with elective anesthesia breast modified radical mastectomy,aged 26 to 55 years,were randomly divided into four groups of 15 patients.Group A (control group):uniform within 10 min before induction of anesthesia saline infusion (NS ; 0.25 ml/kg) ; group B:dexmedetomidine given initial dose 0.3 μg/kg uniform within 10 min before induction of anesthesia infusion finished,anesthesia period 0.3 μg/(g · h) continuous infusion until the end of surgery; group C:dexmedetomidine given initial dose 0.6 μg/kg uniform within 10 min before anesthesia infusion finished,during anesthesia with continuous infusion 0.6 μg/'(kg · h) until the end of surgery ; and group D:dexmedetomidine given initial dose 1 μg/kg uniform within 10 min before anesthesia infusion finished,during anesthesia to 1 μg/(kg · h) continuous infusion to the end of surgery.Patients after the burglary were under multi-monitor vital signs monitoring blood pressure (BP),heart rate (HR),oxygen saturation (SPO2),electrocardiogram (ECG),and after intubation monitoring end-tidal carbon dioxide (EtCO2),recording time T0 and T25.Results No significant difference was found at the T0 time in each group.However,the T25 time (48 ± 6) min in group C and (51 ±6) min in group D was significant longer than that (40 ±6)min in group A (P ＜0.05).The mean artery pressure(MAP) of group C and D [(88.76 ± 7.06)mmHg,(87.89 ± 6.95)mmHg] were significantly lower than group A after dexmedetomidine infusion 5 min later(P ＜ 0.05); The HR of groups B and C [(60.80 ± 7.11)bpm,(63.31 ± 5.78)bpm] were significantly lower than group A before induction (P ＜ 0.05).The HR of group D was significantly lower than group A before induction and after infusion 5 and 30 min later[(66.40 ± 9.49) bpm,(60.52 ± 7.45) bpm,(61.32 ± 7.11) bpm,P ＜ 0.05].Conclusions Under the status of total intravenous anesthesia,different concentrations of dexmedetomidine did not affect the onset time of rocuronium,but dexmedetomidine given up to a certain concentration could enhance the clinical time-effect of rocuronium.
