RESUMO
Objective To investigate the effect of dexmedetomidine combined anesthesia on postoperative delirium in the elderly patients undergoing hip joint replacement.Methods One hundred and sixty ASA Ⅱ or Ⅲ patients,aged 75-85 yr,with a body mass index of 20-25 kg/m2,scheduled for elective total hip joint replacement under general anesthesia,were randomly divided into 2 groups (n =80 each):sevoflurane-fentanyl control group (group C) and dexmedetomidine-sevoflurane-fentanyl group (group D).Dexmedetomidine was intravenously infused at 0.2 μg· kg-1 · h-1 until the end of operation after a loading dose of 0.6μg/kg over 15 min before induction of anesthesia in group D,while the equal volume of normal saline was infused in group C.Anesthesia was induced with iv injection of fentanyl 2-4 μg/kg and etomidate 0.1-0.3 mg/kg at 5 min after the end of administration of the loading dose.Tracheal intubation was facilitated with cisatracurium 0.15 mg/kg and the patients were mechanically ventilated.Anesthesia was maintained with target-controlled inhalation of sevoflurane (the end-tidal concentration 1％-3％) and intermittent iv boluses of fentanyl 0.05 mg.BIS was maintained at 40-60 during operation.The consumption of etomidate,fentanyl,and sevoflurane,agitation during emergence from anesthesia,and postoperative delirium within 24 h after operation were recorded.Results Compared with group C,the consumption of etomidate,fentanly,and sevoflurane was significantly reduced and the incidences of agitation during emergence from anesthesia and postoperative delirium within 24 h after operation were significantly decreased in group D (P ＜0.05).Conclusion Dexmedetomidine combined anesthesia can reduce the occurrence of postoperative delirium in the elderly patients undergoing hip joint replacement.
RESUMO
Objective To evaluate the effect of dexmedetomidine on intraoperative wake-up test in patients undergoing scoliosis surgery.Methods Sixty ASA Ⅰ patients,aged 13-18 yr,scheduled for elective scoliosis surgery,were randomly divided into 2 groups (n =30 each) ∶ sufentanil group (group S) and dexmedetomidine combined with sufentanil group (group DS).Anesthesia was induced with sufentanil,etomidate and cisatracurium,and maintained with target-controlled inhalation of sevoflurane combined with target-controlled infusion of sufentanil in both groups.In group DS,dexmedetomidine 0.2 μg·kg-1 · h-1 was infused during operation,while the equal volume of normal saline was given instead in group S.Before the wake-up test,cisatracurium infusion was stopped,the end-tidal concentration of sevoflurane was adjusted to 0,and the target effect-site concentration of sufentanil was adjusted to 0.1 and 0.08 ng/ml in groups S and DS,respectively.The wake-up test was performed 5 min later.The wake-up time and bucking/restlessness and cardiovascular events during the wake-up test were recorded.The occurrence of intraoperative awareness was recorded in the patients who were followed up after operation.Results No cardiovascular events occurred during the wake-up test in group DS.The wake-up time was significantly shorter and the incidences of cardiovascular events and bucking/restlessness were significantly lower in group DS than in group S (P ＜ 0.05).No intraoperative awareness occurred in the patients.Conclusion Dexme-detomidine can be used for intraoperative wake-up test in patients undergoing scoliosis surgery,with shorter wakeup time,stable hemodymamics and fewer adverse reactions.
RESUMO
Objective To investigate the risk factors for postoperative delirium in patients undergoing noncardiac surgery. Methods From September-December 2009, 480 patients undergoing elective noncardiac surgery were included in this study. The criteria for enrolment of the patients in this study were (1) age ≥ 65 yr,(2) age ＜ 65 yr if associated with coronary artery disease, hypertension, diabetes mellitus, brain injury, cerebral hemorrhage, cerebral infarct, emphysema, chronic bronchitis; duration of operation ≥ 3 h and intraoperative blood loss was expected to exceed 20% of blood volume. The diagnosis of delirium was based on Confusion Assessment Method (CAM). Multivariate logistic regression was used to analyze the risk factors for postoperative delirium.Results Postoperative delirium developed in 79 patients during the first three postoperative days. The incidence of postoperative delirium was 16.5%. The logistic stepwise regression analysis indicated that the risk factors for delirium included advanced age, method of anesthesia, long operation, postoperative pain, emphysema and alcholic. Conclusion Age, method of anesthesia, long operation, postoperative pain, emphysema and alcholic are risk factors for postoperative delirium in patients undergoing noncardiac surgery.
RESUMO
Objective To investigate the risk factors for postoperative delirium in patients undergoing spine operation under total intravenous anesthesia. Methods Two hundred patients undergoing elective spine operation were included in this study. Patients' perioperative informations were recorded. The diagnosis of delirium was based on Confusion Assessment Method (CAM). The patients were divided into 2 groups according to the occurrence of delirium within 3 days after operation: postoperative delirium group and no postoperative delirium group. Multivariate logistic regression was used to analyze the risk factors for postoperative delirium. Results Postoperative delirium developed in 39 patients during the first three postoperative days. The incidence of postoperative delirium was 19.5%. The logistic stepwise regression analysis indicated that the risk factors for delirium included age, intraoperative blood loss and alcohol abuse. Conclusion Age, large amount of intraoperative blood loss and alcohol abuse are risk factors for postoperative delirium in patients undergoing spine operation under total intravenous anesthesia.
RESUMO
Objective To investigate the effect of propofol anesthesia on stress response and immune function of laproscopic cholecystectomy.Methods Corticosterone,glucose,complement concentrations in plasma of 20 ASAⅠ～Ⅱ patients under propofol combined anesthesia undergoing elective laproscopic cholecystectomy,were respectively determined before anesthesia,operation,gallbladder ablation and after de-intubation.Results After anesthesia,blood glucose increased while C3 and CH50 decreased gradually(P
