RESUMEN
Objective:To evaluate the effect of anesthesia factor on postoperative outcome in patients undergoing thoracoscopy through a comparison between different analgesic methods.Methods:One hundred patients of both sexes, aged 18-64 yr, with body mass index of 18.5-24.0 kg/m 2, of American Society of Anesthesiologists physical statusⅠ or Ⅱ, scheduled for elective single-hole thoracoscopic surgery, were divided into 4 groups ( n=25 each) using a random number table method: control group (group C), erector spinae plane block (ESPB) group (group E), thoracic paravertebral nerve block (TPVB) group (group T), and ESPB combined with TPVB group (ET group). Before induction of anesthesia, ultrasound-guided nerve block was performed, and ESPB, TPVB, and ESPB combined with TPVB were performed on the affected side in E, T and ET groups, respectively.The mixture of 0.5% ropivacaine 20 ml and dexamethasone 5 mg was injected in T and E groups, and 0.5% ropivacaine 5 ml was injected into the paravertebral space, the needle tip was retracted to touch the transverse bone, and then another 15 ml was injected in group ET.The block plane was detected by acupuncture at 15 min after completion of the nerve block, and successful nerve block was defined as the block plane reaching T 4-6 in the areas innervated by the spinal nerve.Both groups received patient-controlled intravenous analgesia(PCIA) and were admitted to postanesthesia care unit after surgery.Flurbiprofen axetil 50 mg was intravenously injected as rescue analgesic when the visual analog scale(VAS)score was more than 3.Venous blood samples were collected immediately before nerve block operation (T 0), 30 min after operation (T 1), 30 min after tracheal extubation (T 2), and 24 h after operation (T 3) for determination of the concentrations of plasma cortisol and adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.The VAS score for cough was recorded at 15 min after tracheal extubation (T 4) and 6, 12, 24 and 48 h after surgery (T 5-8). The patients were followed up at 48 h after surgery.The pressing times of PCIA, consumption of flurbiprofen, and development of nausea and vomiting were recorded. Results:Compared with group C, VAS scores for cough were significantly decreased at T 4-6, the pressing times of PCIA was reduced, and the consumption of flurbiprofen, and incidence of nausea and vomiting and plasma Cor and ACTH concentrations at T 1-2 were decreased in the other three groups ( P<0.05). Compared with group E, VAS scores for cough at T 4, pressing times of PCIA and consumption of flurbiprofen were significantly decreased in T and ET groups ( P<0.05). There was no significant difference in each index between ET group and T group ( P>0.05). Conclusion:TPVB performs better than ESPB and TPVB combined with ESPB in improving the postoperative outcome of patients undergoing thoracoscopy.
RESUMEN
Objective To evaluate the effect of multiple-mode analgesia consists of epidural administration of lidocaine,parecoxib intravenously and patient-controlled epidural analgesia (PCEA) on patients after thoracic surgeries. Methods Total 90 patients treated with thoracic surgeries were allocated into 3 groups by random digits table,each with 30 cases. Patients accepted 1% lidocaine 5 ml epidurally 5 min before incision in group A and B,and 5 ml saline as control in group C. When chest closing parecoxib 40 mg were given in group A,and 2 ml saline as control in group B and C. All the patients were given PCEA. Postoperative hemodynamics,dosage of remifentanil and analgetics of PCEA within 48 h, visual analogue scale (VAS) of pain, rescue of pethidine, duration for first pain calling,and satisfactory scores of patients, doctors and nurses were recorded. Results Dosage of remifentanil was lower [(0.72±0.26), (0.84±1.20) μg／(kg·min)], and duration for first pain calling was longer[(35.00±2.78),(12.09±6.27) min] in group A and B than that in group C significantly[(1.80±0.84) μ,g／(kg·min) and (5.95±3.65) min](P<0.05). Analgetics of PCEA with in 48 h in group A was lower than that in group B which was lower than that in group C[(180.40±20.48), (192.54±40.15), (220.26±36.78) ml](P< 0.05). No difference was found on VAS of pain and hemodynamics among three groups when patients were kept immobilized, but VAS of pain in group A and B was lower than that in group C when patients kept moving. Satisfactory scores of patients,doctors and nurses in group A were higher. Conclusion Epidural administration of 1% lidocaine combined with intravenous paiecoxib 40 mg and PCEA an offer satisfactory postoperative analgesia for patients after elective thoracic surgeries.
RESUMEN
Objective To evaluate the efficacy of flexible laryngeal mask airway and sevoflurane in pediatric strabismus surgery. Methods Totally 60 children undergoing elective strabismus surgery were recruited and divided into two groups with 30 cases each by random digits table:group T, in which children accepted endotracheal tube intubation and combined intravenous and inhalation anesthesia with mechanically ventilation; and group F, in which children adopted both flexible laryngeal mask airway and inhalation anesthesia of sevoflurane with spontaneous breath. Airway peak pressure (Ppeak), average airway pressure (Pmean), blood pressure (Bp) and heart rate (HR) at induction (T1), 1 min (T2), 3 min (T3) and 5 min (T4) after induction, removal of endotracheal tube or laryngeal mask airway (T5), awaking time and extubation time, occurrence of cough, dysphoria and pharyngodynia from being awake to extubation, satisfaction of patients were recorded. Results When compared to baseline, systolic pressure was lower at T, and higher at T2, T3 and T5, and HR was higher at T2-T5 in group T(P< 0.05),Bp was lower at T1-T4 in group F (P < 0.05). Bp and HR at T2-T5 in group F were lower than those in group T (P < 0.05). The awaking time was (8.1 ?2.6) min, the extubation time was (12.6 ?3.2) min, the occurrence of cough and pharyngodynia was 66.7%(20/30), 40.0%( 12/30), the dysphoria (0-1 score) was 7 cases in group T,(5.2 ± 1.1) min, (6.3 ± 1.5) rain,0,6.7%(2/30),25 cases in group F. There were significant differences between two groups (P<0.05). The satisfaction of patients in group F was higher than that in group T, there was significant difference between two groups (P< 0.05). Conclusion Flexible laryngeal mask airway with sevoflurane could offer high efficacy in pediatric strabismus surgery.
