Abstract:
OBJECTIVE To investigate the effects of esketamine for multimodal analgesia on opioid consumption and gastric motility in mechanically ventilated non-surgical intensive care unit (ICU) patients. METHODS Forty cases of mechanically ventilated non-surgical patients in the ICU of our hospital from February 1st, 2023 to July 31st, 2023 were selected and randomly divided into control group and esketamine (S-K) group using grouping method with opaque envelopes, with 20 cases in each group. Control group was given sufentanil, and S-K group was infused with Esketamine hydrochloride injection at a constant rate of 0.2 mg/(kg·h)+ sufentanil. The treatment period length, analgesic compliance rate, sedation level, analgesic and sedative consumption, and gastric motility indexes were compared between the two groups. RESULTS There was no statistically significant difference in the treatment period length, analgesic compliance rate, sedation level, or the consumption of propofol and midazolam between the two groups (P>0.05). The consumption of sufentanil in the S-K group was significantly less than control group (P< 0.05). Compared with 1 h after randomization, the antral contraction frequency, antral contraction amplitude and antral motility index of patients in the S-K group were significantly higher at 72 h after randomization and were significantly higher than control group (P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS Esketamine may reduce opioid consumption and improve gastric motility in mechanically ventilated non-surgical ICU patients while ensuring a level of analgesic sedation.
