Effects of captopril on intubation response during anesthesia induction / 中华麻醉学杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the effects of captopril on intubation response and the mechanism. Methods Thirty ASA Ⅰ - Ⅱ patients aged 25-60 yr, weighing 45-70 kg, scheduled for elective surgery under general anesthesia with tracheal intubation and mechanical ventilation were randomly divided into 2 groups captopril group ( n = 15) and control group ( n = 13) . Premedication consisted of intramuscular phenobarbital 0.2 g and atropine 0.5 mg. In captopril group, captopril 0.3-0.35 mg?kg-1 was injected intravenously 10 min before induction while in control group normal saline 10 ml was given instead. Anesthesia was induced with droperidol 0.05 mg?kg-1 , fentanyl 1 ?g?kg-1 , thiopentone 5-6 mg?kg-1 . Intubation was facilitated with succinylcholine 1.5 mg ? kg-1 . Laryngoscopy and tracheal intubation was successfully performed within 30 seconds. Mechanical ventilation was started and enflurane inhalation was begun and maintained at 2.1 % , SBP, DBF, HR, EGG and SpO2 were continuously monitored. Blood samples were taken from peripheral vein before induction (T0 ) , at intubation (T1 ), 1-1.5 min (T2) and 5 min (T3) after intubation for determination of plasma concentrations of angiotensin- Ⅰ (A 1 ), angiotensin- Ⅱ (A Ⅱ ), aldosterone (ALD), noradrenaline (NE), adrenaline (E), atrial natriuretic polypeptide (ANP) and thromboxane B2(TXB2) .Results (1) In captopril group SBP, DBF, HR, and heart rate-systolic BP product (RPP) remained unchanged at intubation, while in control group the parameters were significantly increased at T1 or T2 as compared with the baseline values ( P
