Abstract:
Objective To investigate the effect of intravenous lidocaine on the efficacy of sevoflurane combined with remifentanil for tracheal intubation without neuromuscular relaxants. Methods Seventy-five ASA Ⅰor Ⅱ patients, aged 18-64 yr, scheduled for elective surgery, needing tracheal intubation under general anesthesia, were randomly divided into 3 groups ( n = 25 each) : sevoflurane + remifentanil 1 μg/kg group (group A) ;sevoflurane + remifentanil 1 μg/kg + lidocaine 1 mg/kg group (group B); sevoflurane + remifentanil 2 μg/kg group (group C) . Two minutes after inhalation of 8% sevoflurane for anesthesia induction, remifentanil 1 μg/kg, remifentanil 1 μg/kg + lidocaine 1 mg/kg, and remifentanil 2 μg/kg were injected intravenously in groups A, B and C respectively. Tracheal intubation was performed after completion of remifentanil injection. Intubating conditions were assessed based on ease of laryngoscopy, position of vocal cords, activity of vocal cords, degree of coughing and limb movement. MAP and HR were also recorded before induction and immediately before and after intubation. Results Tracheal intubations were successful in all patients. The satisfactory rates of coughing were significantly higher in groups B and C, and MAP and HR were significantly lower immediately before and after intubation in group C than in group A ( P ＜ 0.05) . The satisfactory rate of coughing was significantly higher in group B than in group C ( P ＜ 0.05) . During intubation, 3 cases developed hypotension and 1 case bradycardia in group C. Conclusion When sevoflurane combined with remifentanil is used for tracheal intubation without neuromuscular relaxants, intravenous lidocaine 1 mg/kg can not only improve intubating conditions, but also decrease the consumption of remifentanil.
