Comparison of small dose remifentanil and fentanyl for prevention of hemodynamic responses to orotracheal intubation in children / 中华麻醉学杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To compare the effects of small dose remifentanil and fentanyl on hemodynamic responses to orotracheal intubation in children.Methods Ninety ASAⅠorⅡchildren (57 males, 33 females) aged 3-9 yrs weighing 17-34 kg scheduled for elective plastic surgery under general anesthesia were randomly allocated to one of 3 groups (n = 30 each) groupⅠcontrol (C); groupⅡfentanyl (F) and groupⅢremifentanil (R) . The children were premedicated with intramuscular scopolamine 0.01 mg?kg-1(the maximum dose 0.3 mg) and midazolam 0.1 mg?kg-1.Anesthesia was induced with propofol 2.5 mg?kg-1 and vecuronium 0.1 mg?kg-1. In group F fentanyl 2?g?kg-1 was injectedⅣ5 min before intubation while in group R remifentanil 1?g?kg-1 was injectedⅣover 30 seconds immediately after vecuronium. Tracheal intubation was performed at 2 min after vecuronium injection. Noninvasive BP and HR were recorded and RPP (SBP?HR) was calculated before (baseline) and immediately after induction (T1),during intubation (T2) and at 1,2,3,4, 5 min after intubation.Results BP was significantly decreased after induction of anesthesia (T1) as compared to the baseline values in all 3 groups (P
