ABSTRACT

Objective:To observe the perioperative rehabilitation of children undergoing lingual frenoplasty under dexmedetomidine nasal drip combined with esketamine anesthesia.Methods:100 children who underwent lingual frenoplasty in Changsha Maternal and Child Health Hospital from 2020 to 2021 were randomly divided into two groups the esketamine group (E group, 50 cases) and the dexmedetomidine nasal drip combined with esketamine group (DE group, 50 cases). The mean arterial pressure (MAP), heart rate (HR) , blood oxygen saturation (SpO 2) and respiratory rate (RR) were measured, and the patients were admitted to the post anesthesia recovery unit (PACU) after operation. The modified Aldrete score, Visual Analogue Score (VAS), Wake-up Restlessness Score, food intake (clear water) time and hospital leaving time were observed at 10 min, 30 min, 60 min and 120 min after operation. Results:There was no significant difference in SpO 2 and RR, MAP and HR at T 0 and T 6 between the two groups (all P>0.05). The MAP and HR at T 1, T 2, T 3, T 4 and T 5 in DE group were lower than those in E group (all P<0.05). The modified Aldrete score of DE group was higher than that of E group, and the VAS and Wake-up Restlessness Score were lower than that of E group (all P<0.05); The time of food intake (clear water) and leaving hospital were shorter than those in Group E, with statistically significant difference (all P<0.05). Conclusions:In children′s lingual frenoplasty, dexmedetomidine nasal drip combined with esmketamine can more effectively relieve postoperative pain and agitation than esmketamine alone, shorten children′s postoperative eating time, leave the hospital earlier, and enhance recovery of children.
