Abstract:
Objective To investigate the effects of different doses of dexmedetomidine on the minimum alveolar concentration of sevoflurane for blunting responses to skin incision ( MACBAR ) in patients undergoing lower abdominal surgery. Methods Sixty ASA Ⅰ or Ⅱ patients, aged 25-55 yr, weighing 45-75 kg, undergoing electire lower abdominal surgery under general anesthesia, were randomly divided into 4 groups ( n = 15 each): control group (Do group) and 3 dexmedetomidine groups (D1, D2 and D3 groups). The patients were unpremedicated.Dexmedetomidine was not used in group D0. A loading dose of dexmedetomidine 0.1μg/kg was injected iv over 10 min, and then dexmedetomidine was infused at a rate of 0.4, 0.8 and 1.2 μg· kg- 1 · h - 1 for 30 min in groups D1-3 respectively. Anesthesia was induced with inhalation of 8 % sevoflurane. Laryngeal mask airway was inserted when BIS value decreased to 45-55. The patients were mechanically ventilated with inhalation of sevoflurane and a mixture of 50% nitrous oxide and 50% oxygen, and the fresh gas flow was set at 1 L/min. In D0-3 groups, the initial end-tidal concentrations of sevoflurane were 3.0%, 2.5%, 2.0% and 1.5% respectively. The patients' response to skin incision was described as effective if MR or MAP increased by < 15%, or ineffective (MR or MAP increased by ≥ 15%). When the response was effective, the end-tidal concentration of sevoflurane was decreased in the next patient, when ineffective, increased, and the ratio between the two successive concentrations was 0.9.The MRCBAR of sevoflurane was determined by up-and-down method, and 95% confidence interval was calculated.Results The MRCBAR (95% confidence interval) of sevoflurane was 2.85% (2.44%-3.32%), 1.91%(1.61%-2.26%), 1.52% (1.31%-1.77%), and 1.34% (1.15%-1.57%)in D0-3 groups respectively. The MRCBAR of sevoflurane was significantly lower in D1-3 groups than in D0 group, and in D2 and D3 groups than in group D1 (P <0.05=. There was no significant difference in MRCBAR of sevoflurane between D2 and D3 groups (P >0.05) .ConclusionContinuous infusion of dexmedetomidine at 0.4, 0.8 and 1.2 μg·kg-1 ·h-1 for 30 min results in a decrease in MACBAR of sevoflurane and enhances the inhibitory effect of sevoflurane on the stress response, and in a dose-dependent manner.
