Sedative Effect of Different Doses of Dexmedetomidine in Patients Undergoing Total Abdominal Hyserectomy / 中国药师

ABSTRACT

Objective:To compare the sedative effect and safety of different doses of dexmedetomidine in the patients undergoing total abdominal hyserectomy. Methods:A total of 120 patients undergoing total abdominal hysterectomy were randomly divided into four groups, different doses of dexmedetomidine groups(D1 group, D2 group and D3 group)and midazolam group(M group) with 30 pa-tients in each. Dexmedetomidine groups received intravenous pump infusion of dexmedetomidine (0. 5 μg·kg-1 ) 10 minutes before the operation, and then the different dexmedetomidine groups were received continuous infusion of dexmedetomine of different dosesD1 group of 0. 4μg·(kg·h) -1, D2 group with 0. 6μg·(kg·h) -1 and D3 group with 0. 8μg·(kg·h) -1;M group received in-travenous pump infusion of midazolam (0. 06 mg·kg-1) 10 minutes before the operation, and then with 0. 04 mg·(kg·h) -1 con-tinuous infusion. The mean arterial pressure( MAP) , heart rate( HR) , respiratory rate( RR) , oxyhemoglobin saturation( SpO2 ) were recorded at the following time pointsthe moment of entering the operating room(T0), the block effect of epidural anesthesia was satis-fied (T1),10 min(T2),20 min(T3)and 40 min(T4)after the drug infusion, and the end of the operation(T5), and the duration of the medicine use and the whole operation were recorded as well. The sedation degrees were evaluated with Ramsay scale, and the am-nesic scores, adverse drug reactions and patient satisfaction were recorded after the operation. Results:Compared with that of the other groups, HR of D3 group was obviously lower after T3 (P<0. 05);and after T2, HR was significantly lower than that at T0 (P<0. 05 or P<0. 01). Compared with the other groups, RR of M group was obviously lower at T3 and T4 (P<0. 05). Compared with those at T0 , the sedative effects of all the groups were much remarkable(P<0. 05 or P<0. 01);and the Ramsay score of D3 group at T3 and T4 was higher than that in D1 group or M group(P<0. 05). There were no obvious adverse reactions in the four groups. Conclusion:The use of dexmedetomidine in the patients undergoing total abdominal hyserectomy might not lead to the risk of respiratory depression as the use of midazolam, while the dose of dexmedetomidine should be less than 0. 8 μg·(kg·h) -1.
