Abstract:
Objective To compare the effects of different methods of general anesthesia on postoperative cognitive function in patients undergoing non-cardiac surgery.Methods One thousand ASA Ⅰ or Ⅱ patients,aged 18-60 years and undergoing non-cardiac surgery,were randomly divided into five groups (n=200 each):isoflurane + propofol + fentanyl group (group IPF),isoflurane + remifentanil group (group IR),sevoflurane + propofol + fentanyl group (group SPF),sevoflurane + remifentanil group (group SR),and propofol + remifentanil group (group PR).Two hundred patients receiving non-operative treatment served as control group (group C).In groups IPF and SPF,anesthesia was maintained with inhalation of 1.68％ isoflurane or 1.71％ sevoflurane,target controlled infusion (TCI) of propofol with the target plasma concentration of 2-5 μg/ml,and intermittent intravenous boluses of fentanyl.In groups IR,SR and PR,anesthesia was maintained with inhalation of 1.68％ isoflurane or 1.71 ％ sevoflurane,or TCI of propofol with the target plasma concentration of 2-5 μg/ml,and TCI of remifentanil with the target plasma concentration of 2-6 ng/ml.The patients' cognitive function was assessed with minimental state examination (MMSE) 1 day before operation,when leaving the post-anesthetic care unit (PACU),and 1 and 3 days after operation,respectively.Z score was used to identify the cognitive dysfunction as recommended by Moiler when leaving the PACU,and 1 and 3 days after operation.Results Compared with group C,the MMSE score was significantly decreased when leaving the PACU,and the incidence of cognitive dysfunction increased when leaving the PACU and 1 day after operation in the other groups (P ＜ 0.05).Compared with groups IPF,IR,SPF and PR,the incidence of cognitive dysfunction was significantly increased in group SR (P＜0.05).Conclusion General anesthesia with sevoflurane combined remifentanil exerts fewer effects on the postoperative cognitive function in patients undergoing non-cardiac surgery.
