Changes in noxious stimulation intensity at different periods of pneumoperitoneum in patients undergoing gynecological laparoscopic surgery / 中华麻醉学杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To evaluate the changes in noxious stimulation intensity at different periods of pneumoperitoneum in patients undergoing gynecological laparoscopic surgery.Methods Forty-five ASA Ⅰ or Ⅱ patients,aged 25-36 years,with body mass index of 18-23 kg/m2,undergoing elective gynecological laparoscopic surgery,were randomly divided into three groups (n =15 each).In group Ⅰ,anesthesia was maintained with target-controlled infusion (TCI) of remifentanil (with target plasma concentration of 4-6 ng/ml) and propofol (with target plasma concentration of 2 μg/ml),and the concentrations were adjusted according to the changes in blood pressure (BP) and heart rate (HR) to maintain hemodynamics stable.Group Ⅱ and group Ⅲ received inhalation of isoflurane (with the end-tidal concentration of 1％-2％) and TCI of remifentanil (with target plasma concentration of 2-4 ng/ml).TCI of remifentanil was then stopped at 5 minutes before pneumoperitoneum (group Ⅱ) or at 5 minutes after the end of rapid inflation (group Ⅲ),and isoflurane was inhaled (with the end-tidal concentration of 1％-2％) to maintain anesthesia until the end of operation in groups Ⅱ and Ⅲ.Before anesthesia (T0),5 minutes before pneumoperitoneum (T1),after 5 and 15 minutes of pneumoperitoneum (T2,3),HR and mean arterial blood pressure (MAP) were monitored and venous blood samples were taken for determination of plasma concentrations of cortisol (Cor),norepinephrine (NE) and epinephrine (E).Results HR,MAP,and NE and E concentrations at T2,3,and Cor concentrations at T3 were significantly higher than those at T0 in group Ⅱ.They were significantly higher in group Ⅱ than in group Ⅰ (P ＜ 0.05),but were significantly lower in group Ⅲ than in group Ⅱ (P＜0.05).Conclusion The intensity of noxious stimulation is strongest during rapid inflation among the different periods of pneumoperitoneum in patients undergoing gynecological laparoscopic surgery and the depth of anesthesia should be regulated.
