Application of EEG BIS monitor in precision anesthesia / 中国医学装备

Objective:To study the application value of electroencephalograph bispectral index (EEG-BIS) monitor in precision anesthesia and its effect on postoperative awakening time.Methods:A total of 100 patients who prepared to undergo thyroid surgery were randomly divided into observation group (n=50) and control group (n=50) .Under the same anesthesia way of the two groups, observation group adopted the results from EEG-BIS monitor to adjust the depth of anesthesia for patients, and control group adopted routine monitoring included weight, blood pressure and heart rate to adjust the depth of anesthesia.The amount of anesthetic and the awakening time of the patients in the two groups were observed and recorded, and the incidence of postoperative adverse events between the two groups were further compared.Results:The amount of propofol of observation group was significantly larger than that of control group (t=2.72, P<0.05) .And the awakening time, extubation time and the time of leaving PACU of observation group were significantly less than those of control group (t=4.45, t=4.83, t=5.92, P<0.05) .The differences of blood pressure at 20 min, 30 min and 60 min after patients underwent thyroid surgery between the two groups were significant (t=2.87, t=3.90, t=2.76, P<0.05) .Conclusion:BIS monitor can guide the adjustment for the depth of anesthesia during operation, and reduce the amount of general anesthetics of patients and shorten the awakening time in PACU, which is worthy in clinical application.

Effects of low-dose epinephrine on cerebral oxygen saturation and awakening time during one-lung ventilation: A randomized controlled trial / 中国胸心血管外科临床杂志

@#Objective    To evaluate the effects of low-dose epinephrine on cerebral oxygen saturation (rScO2) and awakening time during one-lung ventilation (OLV) for thoracic surgery. Methods    Thirty consecutive patients undergoing lobectomy from March to July 2016 in our hospital were randomly divided into an epinephrine group (n=15, 8 males and 7 females at an average age of 58.70±11.40 years) or a saline group (n=15, 7 males and 8 females at an average age of 57.00±11.40 years). They were continuously infused with 0.01 μg/(kg·min) epinephrine or saline after general induction. Hemodynamics was maintained ±20% of the baseline value. All patients were ventilated by a pressure control mode during OLV with tidal volume of 5-8 ml/kg and end-tidal carbon dioxide tension (EtCO2) of 35-45 mm Hg. Regional cerebral oxygen saturation (rScO2) was monitored using near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) continuously. Results    Compared with the saline group, the epinephrine group had a high rScO2 during OLV, with a statisitical significance at OLV 40 min and 50 min (67.76%±4.64% vs. 64.08%±3.07%, P=0.016; 67.25%±4.34% vs. 64.20%±3.37%, P=0.040). In addition, the awakening time of patients in the epinephrine group was shorter than that of the saline group (P=0.004), and the awakening time was associated with the duration of low-dose rScO2 (r=0.374). Conclusion    Continuous infusion of 0.01 μg/(kg·min) could improve the rScO2 during OLV and shorten awakening time in thoracic surgery.

Objective To observe the effect of continuous pumped dexmedetomidine on hemodynamics, awakening quality and stress response in double -lumen tube extubation patients.Methods 60 patients with thoracic surgery were divided into saline group(group N,n =30)and Dex group(group D,n =30).Both two groups were continuously pumped NS and dexmedetomidine respectively 20min before anesthesia.MAP,HR and SpO2 at different time points during the surgery were recorded.Extracted 5ml arterial blood at the time point of T0 and T3,centrifugated and stored at -80 ℃ for testing renin levels.The extubation time,restlessness incidence,orientation recovery time, extubation quality score were recorded.Results The values of MAP in group D at time points of T0,T1,T2,T3,T4 were (97 ±15)mmHg,(102 ±12)mmHg,(103 ±11)mmHg,(98 ±12)mmHg,(96 ±13)mmHg.The values of HR in group D at different time points were (69 ±9)times/min,(80 ±6)times/min,(90 ±7)times/min,(74 ±5)times/min,(73 ±6)times/min.The values of SpO2 in group D at different time points were (95 ±3)%,(98 ±2)%,(98 ± 2)%,(95 ±3)%,(96 ±2)%.The values of MAP in group N at time points of T0,T1,T2,T3,T4 were (96 ± 15)mmHg,(112 ±16)mmHg,(120 ±12)mmHg,(117 ±14)mmHg,(102 ±15)mmHg.The values of HR in group N at different time points were (68 ±7)times/min,(84 ±8)times/min,(105 ±6)times/min,(89 ±6)times/min, (80 ±7)times/min.The values of SpO2 in group N at different time points were (96 ±2)%,(98 ±2)%,(97 ± 3)%,(93 ±3)%,(92 ±4)%.The values of MAP,HR,SpO2 at different time points in group D were significantly lower than those in group N,the differences were statistically significant (the t values of MAP at different time points were tT1 =2.74,tT2 =5.72,tT3 =25.63,tT4 =1.66,all P <0.05;the t values of HR at different time points were tT1 =2.20,tT2 =8.91,tT3 =10.52,tT4 =4.16,all P <0.05;the t values of SpO2 at different time points were tT1 =0.00,tT2 =1.52,tT3 =2.58,tT4 =4.9,PT3 <0.05,PT4 <0.05).There was significant difference between the two groups in orientation recovery time[(3.3 ±2.2)min vs (5.2 ±2.3)min,P =0.0018].There was significant difference between the two groups in agitation score[(1.3 ±0.9)vs (2.4 ±1.2)].There was significant difference between the two groups in extubation quality score[(2.1 ±1.2)vs (3.2 ±1.4),P =0.0018].There was statistical difference between the two groups in T3 adrenal hormones[(N:120 ±25.3)pmol/L,(D:93.4 ±23.2)pmol/L,P =0.00].The dose of sufentanil (60.5 ±9.2)μg in group N was higher than (40.4 ±10.2)μg in group D (P =0.001).The dose of remifentanil (3.3 ±0.8)mg in group N was higher than (2.4 ±0.9)mg in group D (P =0.001).Conclusion Continuous pumped dexmedetomidine can effectively improve awakening quality of patients with double -lumen tube.

Factors that influence awakening in coronary artery bypass graft using propofol and remifentanil / 대한마취과학회지

BACKGROUND: The development of total intravenous anesthesia in coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery has led to increased interest in the use of combination of propofol and remifentanil. Early extubation in post-cardiac surgery reduces the length of stay in intensive care unit and hospital and costs. The purpose of this study is to evaluate which anesthetic factors affect awakening time after anesthesia. METHODS: We enrolled twenty patients of ASA physical status II or III, scheduled for CABG in this study. All patients received a standardized propofol/remifentanil anesthesia as an effect site target controlled infusion. We recorded times to awakening and tracheal extubation, duration of cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) period, total time of anesthesia and operation. Also, we recorded dose of propofol, remifentanil, fentanyl and minimum body temperature during CPB. To predict the factors that affect awakening time as a dependent variable, we considered all measured parameters as independent variables, and analyzed multiple linear regressions. RESULTS: The mean time responded to verbal command was 216.5 +/- 124.8 minutes after end of surgery. Among several parameters, minimum body temperature during CPB (P = 0.001) and total time of anesthesia (P = 0.003) were considered as significant factors that influence awakening time after CABG. CONCLUSIONS: Minimum body temperature during CPB and the duration of anesthesia influence awakening time after CABG, significantly.

The Effect of the IV-PCA (Intravenous-Patient Controlled Analgesia) on the Recovery Index / 대한마취과학회지

BACKGROUND: It is well known that intravenous patient controlled analgesia (IV-PCA) is an effective method to reduce the magnitude of postoperative pain. However, we do not know the appropriate time to start the IV-PCA. To determine the appropriate time to minimalize the sympathetic stimulation and shorten the awakening time after general anesthesia, experiments to indicate whether starting an infusion of the IV-PCA before the end of an operation has a minimal hemodynamic change and similar recovery index compared with the control group were done. METHODS: Seventy-eight patients scheduled for a total abdominal hysterectomy were randomly allocated to two groups. In the IV-PCA group (n = 37), we started the infusion of the IV-PCA before the end of the operation and in the control group (n = 41) which received no IV-PCA, we did not use the IV-PCA as a postoperative pain control method. We measured heart rate, blood pressure, postanesthesia recovery score every 10 minutes for 60 minutes and awakening time at the post-anesthesia care unit. RESULTS: The postanesthesia recovery scores on arrival, 10, 20, 30, 40 and 50 minute after arrival at the post-anesthesia care unit were lower in the IV-PCA group than in the control group. In addition the awakening time after vaporizer-off and at the post-anesthesia care unit was longer in the IV-PCA group than in the control group. CONCLUSIONS: We conclude that starting the infusion of the IV-PCA before the end of the operation is not effective in early recovery and awakening.
