- Abstract: Objective To investigate the effect of different doses of esketamine combined with hydromorphone postoperative patient-controlled intravenous analgesia(PCIA)on depression in elderly pa-tients undergoing total knee arthroplasty.Methods A total of 180 elderly patients,44 males and 136 fe-males,aged 65-80 years,BMI 18.5-35.0 kg/m2,ASA physical status Ⅱ or Ⅲ,undergoing total knee arthroplasty(TKA)under elective general anesthesia combined with adductor block from J uly 2023 to Sep-tember 2023.Patients were divided into three groups by random number table method;control group(group C),esketamine 0.5 mg/kg group(group E1),and esketamine 1.0 mg/kg group(group E2),60 patients in each group.After operation,groups C,E1 and E2 were given hydromorphone 0.2 mg/kg,esketamine 0.5 mg/kg combined with hydromorphone 0.2 mg/kg,and esketamine 1.0 mg/kg combined with hydromor-phone 0.2 mg/kg to receive PCIA,respectively,and the three groups were diluted to 100 ml with normal saline.Parameters were set as follows.The background infusion rate was 1.5 ml/h,and the single press dose was 1.5 ml,and the locking time was 15 minutes.If the VAS pain score at rest was greater than or equal to 4 points and the analgesic effect of pressing the PCIA pump was not effective,then intramuscular injection of tramadol 0.1 g was used for remedial analgesia.Hamilton depression scale(HAMD)score was performed 1 day,3 and 7 days after surgery.Depressive state was classified as having HAMD score ≥ 8 points.VAS pain scores at rest were performed 1 day,3 and 7 days after surgery.The number of depression within 7 days after surgery,the number of effective(D1)and total(D2)pump compressions and D1/D2 within 3 days after surgery,the number of rescue analgesia,the occurrence of adverse reactions such as tra-madol dosage,dizziness,headache,multiple dreams,hallucinations,nausea and vomiting were recorded.Results Twenty-one patients(35%)in group C experienced depression,7 patients(12%)in group E1,and 8 patients(13%)in group E2 during 3 days after surgery.Eight patients(13%)in group C experi-enced depression,1 patients(2%)in group E1,and 2 patients(3%)in group E2 during 7 days after sur-gery.Compared with group C,the incidence of depression 3 and 7 days after surgery,rescue analgesia rate in group E1 were significantly decreased,the incidence of depression 3 and 7 days after surgery,dizziness,headache,and dreaminess within 3 days after surgery in group E2 were significantly decreased(P<0.05).There were no significant differences in the incidence of depression and VAS pain scores between group El and group E2 at 1,3,and 7 days after surgery.Conclusion Esketamine 0.5 and 1.0 mg/kg for PCIA in elderly patients after TKA can improve postoperative depression,while esketamine 1.0 mg/kg can reduce the incidence of postoperative dizziness,headache,and multiple dreams.
