Abstract:
Objective To investigate the effects of dexmedetomidine injection at the Neiguan acupoint before general anaesthesia on neurocognitive disorder and sleep quality after non-cardiac major surgery in eld-erly people.Methods Elderly patients undergoing elective thoracic and laparoscopic surgery in this hospital from February 2023 to March 2024 were selected and divided into the dexmedetomidine Neiguan acupoint in-jection group(A),saline Neiguan acupoint injection group(B)and dexmedetomidine intravenous injection group(C)by the randomised numerical table method,40 cases in each group.The postoperative neurocognitive function and sleep-related condition in the three groups were observed.Results The incidence rate of postop-erative delirium(POD)on postoperative 1 d in the group A and C was significantly decreased compared with the group B,and the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05);the incidence rate of POD on postoper-ative 2 d in the group A was significantly decreased compared with the group B(P＜0.05);the incidence rate of postoperative cognitive dysfunction(POCD)on postoperative 1 d in the group A and C was significantly de-creased compared with the group B,moreover which in the group A was lower than that in the group C,and the differences were statistically significant(P＜0.05);the incidence rate of POCD on postoperative 3,5 d in the group A was lower than that in the group B(P＜0.05).The MMSE score on postoperative 1,3,5 d in the group B and C was significantly decreased compared with preoperative 1 d(P＜0.05).The MMSE score on postoperative 1,3,5 d in the group A and C was higher than that in the group B.and the difference was statis-tically significant(P＜0.05).The PSQI score on postoperative 1,3,5 d in the group A and C was increased compared with preoperative 1 d(P＜0.05);compared with the group B,the PSQI score on postoperative 1,3,5 d in the group A and C was decreased,moreover the group A was lower the group C,and the differences were statistically significant(P＜0.05).The incidence rate of bradycardia in the group A and C was signifi-cantly higher than that in the group B(P＜0.05).The incidence rate of postoperative nausea and vomiting(PONV)in the group A was significantly lower than that in the group B and C(P＜0.05),and the difference between the group B and C had no statistical significance(P＞0.05).Conclusion Dexmedetomidine injection at the Neiguan acupoint before anaesthesia for minimally invasive surgery can significantly reduce periopera-tive neurocognitive dysfunction(PND)and improve the quality of sleep in elderly patients,moreover simulta-neously has the effect for preventing PONV.
