Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the efficacy of dezocine for prevention of postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) in elderly patients undergoing total knee arthroplasty under remifentanil-based anesthesia.Methods Sixty-eight patients of both sexes, aged 65-85 yr, weighing 48-78 kg, of American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status Ⅰ or Ⅱ , undergoing elective unilateral total knee arthroplasty under general anesthesia, were randomly divided into 2 groups (n =34 each) using a random number table: control group (group C) and dezocine group (group D).After induction of anesthesia, the patients were tracheally intubated and mechanically ventilated.Anesthesia was maintained with iv infusion of propofol 0.05-0.06 mg · kg-1 · min-1 and remifentanil 0.05-0.10 μg · kg-1 · min-1, and intermittent iv boluses of vecuronium 0.04 mg/kg.Dezocine 0.1 mg/kg was injected intravenously at 30 min before skin incision in group D.At 1 day before operation (T0) , and 1, 3, 5, 7 days after operation (T1 , T2, T3 , T4) , the blood samples from the central vein were collected for determination of serum cortisol (Cor), neuron specific enolase (NSE) and S-100β protein concentrations.Before operation, and 5 and 7 days after operation, the patients' cognitive function was assessed using Mini-Mental State Examination, and the occurrence of POCD was recorded.Results Compared with the baseline value at T0, the serum Cor, NSE and S-100β protein concentrations were significantly increased at T1-3, and MMSE scores were decreased at T3,4 in the two groups.Compared with group C, the serum Cot, NSE and S-100β protein concentrations were significantly decreased at T1-4, and Mini-Mental State Examination scores were increased at 5 and 7 days after operation, and the incidence of POCD was decreased in group D.Conclusion Dezocine 0.1 mg/kg intravenously injected at 30 min before skin incision can prevent the occurrence of POCD in elderly patients undergoing total knee arthroplasty under remifentanil-based anesthesia.
