Different target controlled concentrations of remifentanil combined with dexmedetomidine used for awake nasal intubation in cervical spine surgery patients / 临床麻醉学杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To observe the safety and efficacy of different concentration of remifen-tanil TCI combined with dexmedetomidine for awake nasal intubation in cervical spine surgery patients and explore the clinical suitable concentrations for remifentanil TCI.Methods Sixty cervical spine surgery patients undergoing selective surgery under general anaesthesia (male 40 cases,female 20 ca-ses,aged 18-68 years,ASA Ⅰ or Ⅱ)were randomly divided into three groups according to TCI con-centration of remifentanil.The plasma concentration of remifentanil TCI of group A,B,C were 1.5 ng/ml,2.0 ng/ml,2.5 ng/ml respectively,which combined with dexmedetomidine 1 μg/kg.The value of MAP,HR,SpO2 ,RR were recorded when patients entering the operating room(T1 ), before intubation(T2 ),immediately after tracheal tube passing through nasopharynx(T3 ),immedi-ately after tracheal intubation(T4 ),immediately after tracheal tube cuff inflated(T5 )and 1min after intubation(T6 ).The success rate of first intubation were recorded.The incidence of cough,limb movement,respiratory depression,awareness and other adverse reactions during intubation were re-corded.Results In group A,MAP and HR at T3-T5 were significantly higher than those at T1 (P <0.05);SpO2 at T4-T6 and RR at T3-T6 were significantly lower than those at T1 (P <0.05)in group C.In group A,the incidence of cough and limb movements were significantly higher than those in group B,C(P <0.05).In group C,the incidence of respiratory depression was significantly higher than that in group A,B(P <0.05).Conclusion TCI concentration 2.0 ng/ml for remifentanil com-bined with dexmedetomidine can effectively inhibit the stress response to intubation with little respira-tory depression and can be widely used for awake nasal intubation in cervical spine surgery patients.
