Effects of 3 Types of Antihypertensive Drugs on Cognitive Function in Elderly Hypertensive Patients after Acetabular Surgery / 中国药房

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effects of 3 types of antihypertensive drugs on cognitive function in elderly hyper-tensive patients after acetabular surgery. METHODS:Ninety hypertensive patients receiving antihypertensive drugs for a long term (not changed antihypertensive drugs within 2 weeks before surgery)undergoing selective acetabular surgery were included sequen-tially and divided into angiotensin receptor blocker(ARB)group,angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor(ACEI)group and cal-cium channel blocker(CCB)group according to the types of antihypertensive drugs,with 30 cases in each group. All patients re-ceived acetabular surgery under epidural anesthesia. The cognitive function of patients was evaluated by using MMSE 1 d before sur-gery(T0),1 d after surgery(T2)and 3 d after surgery(T3). The concentration of S100β protein serum was determined 1d before surgery (T0),immediately after surgery (T1) and 1 d after surgery (T2). RESULTS:Compared with T0,MMSE score of ARB group at T2,those of ACEI group and CCB group at T2 and T3 were decreased significantly,with statistical significance(P<0.05). Compared with ARB group,MMSE score of ACEI group and CCB group at T2,T3 were decreased significantly,with statistical sig-nificance(P<0.05). Compared with ACEI group,MMSE score of CCB group at T2,T3 were decreased significantly,with statisti-cal significance(P<0.05). Compared with T0,the concentration of S100β protein in serum 3 groups were increased significantly, with statistical significance (P<0.05). Compared with ARB group,the concentration of S100β protein serum in ACEI group and CCB group were increased significantly,with statistical significance(P<0.05). Compared with ACEI group,the concentration of S100β protein serum in CCB group at T1,T2 were increased significantly,with statistical significance(P<0.05). The incidence of cognitive dysfunction was in ascending order of ARB group (30%)cognitive dysfunction in CCB group was significantly higher than in ARB group,with statistical significance(P<0.05).

CONCLUSIONS:

Antihypertensive drugs can improve the cognitive function in elderly hypertensive patients after ace-tabular surgery. The incidence of cognitive dysfunction in the patients taking ARB is the lowest,better than ACEI and CCB.
