The effects of a single IV lidocaine bolus dose on the minimal alveolar concentration of sevoflurane / 天津医药

ABSTRACT

Objective To evaluate the effects of a single IV lidocaine bolus dose on the minimal alveolar concentration (MAC)of sevoflurane. Methods Patients (n=90), aged 25-65 years whose Anesthesiologists (ASA) classification wasⅠorⅡand underwent elective surgery on trunk under general anesthesia, were randomly divided into 3 groups with 30 cases in each grouphigh-dose lidocaine group (group H), low-dose lidocaine group (group L) and control group (group C). They were induced by sevoflurane inhalation, and ventilated by LMA (laryngeal mask airway). After a 15 minutes equilibration period with the above sevoflurane concentration , the medication to be studied (2%lidocaine 1.5 mg/kg for group H , 2%lidocaine 0.75 mg/kg for group L, 0.9%saline 5mL for group C) was administered for 3 minutes before the skin incision. The response to skin incision (movement versus no movement) was recorded in the first minute after skin incision. The MAC for sevoflu?rane was determined using the Dixon′s up and down method. Values of mean arterial pressure (MAP), heart rate (HR), and BIS were recorded at 1 minute and 5 minutes after being monitored (average values were noted as T0), immediately before the administration of medication (T1), immediately before the skin incision (T2) and 1 minute after the skin incision(T3). Results MAC in group H (2.00%± 0.17%) was lower than that in group C (2.22%± 0.18%) by approximately 0.22%,and which was lower than that of group L ( 2.21%± 0.14%) by approximately 0.21%(F=7.054,P<0.05). No significant differ?ence in the MAC of sevoflurane was noted between group L and group C. The values of HR, MAP and BIS all decreased at T 2 and increased at T3 in all 3 groups (all P<0.05). No significant difference in HR, MAP or BIS was observed between T0 and T1 in all three groups. The values of HR and BIS were lower in group H than those in group C and group L at T2 and T3. The values of MAP were lower in group L and group H than those in group C at T2 and T3. The value of MAP were lower in group H than that in group L at T2(all P<0.05). Conclusion A singleⅣ1.5 mg/kg lidocaine decreases MAC of sevoflurane, but the decreased amplitude (11%) does not reach expectation.
