Abstract:
Objective To investigate the effectiveness of the combination of general anesthesia ( GA) and single-shot bilateral thoracic paravertebral block ( TPVB) by ropivacaine in the patients undergoing off-pump coronary artery bypass surgery ( OPCAB) . Methods Forty patients with coronary heart disease scheduled for elective OPCAB surgery were randomly divided into two groups:general anesthesia group (group A, n=20) and general anesthesia combined with bilateral thoracic paravertebral block group (group B, n=20). The frequency of hemodynamic abnormalities and dosage of vasoactive drugs during the period of operation were recorded. Meanwhile, other reference data were recorded, such as the consumption of sufentanil during operation and postoperative analgesia, the time of endotracheal tube retention and intensive care unit ( ICU) stay. Results Two cases were excluded from the study in group B for failure block. Compared with group A, the frequency of hypertension and the amount of nicardipine was lower during operation in group B (P<0. 05), the consumption of sufentanil was less both during operation (P<0. 01) and postoperative analgesia (P<0. 05). Moreover, the time of tracheal tube retention and ICU stay were shorter in group B (P<0. 05). Conclusion The findings of this study indicate that GA combined with single-shot TPVB is superior to GA alone in improving haemodynamic stability in patients undergoing OPCAB surgery. The combination therapy can also reduce the use of opiates and shorten the time of recovery.
