Résumé
Objective To observe the efficacy and safety of ultrasound-guided musculocutaneous nerve(MCN)block anesthesia in alleviating operative pain during percutaneous transluminal angioplasty(PTA)for hemodialysis internal fistula.Methods A total of 112 patients undergoing internal fistula PTA in the hemodi-alysis center of the nephrologic department of the Second Affiliated Hospital of Army Military Medical Uni-versity from February 2022 to February 2023 were selected.Among them,47 patients applied the ultrasound-guided MCN block anesthesia(MCN block group)and other 65 patients adopted perivascular local infiltration anesthesia in the injured blood vessel section(local anesthesia group).Anesthesia was independently operated by the vascular access doctor.The VAS score,analgesic satisfaction investigation and motor block evaluation were compared between the two groups,and the efficacy and safety of MCN block anesthesia were under-stood.Results The proportion of the patients with motor block score grade 1 in the MCN block group was the highest(93.6％),and there were no patients with the grade ≥3.The proportion of the patients with the VAS score(4-6)points in the local anesthesia group was the highest(52.3％),while the proportion of the patients with the VAS score(1-3)points in the MCN block group was the highest(76.6％);the proportions of(1-3)points,(4-6)points,(7-10)points and the patients with additional anesthesia had statistical differences between the MCN block group and local anesthesia group(P＜0.05).The satisfaction degree of postoperative analgesia in the local anesthesia group was 55.4％,which was lower than 85.1％in the MCN block group,and the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05).Conclusion The upper arm MCN block anesthesia could effectively relief the operative pain in arteriovenous internal fistula PTA,and is an effective anesthesia method suitable for the independent operation of hemodialysis channel surgeons.
