Abstract:
Objective To investigate the effects of different doses of penehyclidine hydrochloride on postoperative cognitive function in the elderly patients.Methods Ninety-three ASA Ⅰ or Ⅱ elderly patients,aged ≥65 yr,weighing 55-71 kg,were randomly divided into 3 groups (n =31 each):penehyclidine hydrochloride 0.010 mg/kg group (group A),penehyclidine hydrochloride 0.015 mg/kg group (group B) and atropine 0.010 mg/kg group (group C).Their preoperative Mini-Mental State examination (MMSE) scores were ＞ 27.At 30 min before anesthesia,groups A,B and C received intramuscular penehyclidine hydrochloride 0.010 mg/kg,penehyclidine hydrochloride 0.015 mg/kg and atropine 0.010 mg/kg,respectively.The cognitive function of the patients was assessed within 72 h after operation using MMSE.Diagnostic criterion of postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) was defined as MMSE score ≤27.POCD and the degree were recorded within 72 h after operation.Results Compared with group A,postoperative cognitive function was significantly decreased at each time point after operation and the incidence of POCD was significantly increased in group B (P ＜ 0.05),and no significant change was found in the parameters mentioned above in group C (P ＞ 0.05).Compared with group B,postoperative cognitive function was significantly enhanced at each time point after operation and the incidence of POCD was significantly decreased in group C (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Penehyclidine hydrochloride can depress postoperative cognitive function and the effect is related to the dose.
