Abstract:
Objective To evaluation the efficacy of dexmedetomidine mixed with dezocine and levobupivacaine for patient-controlled epidural analgesia (PCEA) after cesarean section.Methods A total of 300 patients, aged 23-35 yr, with body mass index of 24-28 kg/m2 , of American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status Ⅰ or Ⅱ , undergoing elective cesarean section under epidural anesthesia, were randomly divided into 3 groups (n =100 each) according to the random number table: morphine and levobupivacaine group (ML group), dezocine and levobupivacaine group (DL group), and dexmedetomidine, dezocine and levobupivacaine group (DDL group).In group ML, the loading dose included morphine 2 mg + levobupivacaine 10 mg + 5 ml normal saline, and PCEA solution contained morphine 5 mg + levobupivacaine 150 mg + normal saline 100 ml.In group DL, the loading dose included dezocine 3 mg+ levobupivacaine 10 mg+ normal saline 5 ml, and PCEA solution contained dezocine 15 mg + levobupivacaine 150 mg + normal saline 100 ml.In group DDL, the loading dose included dezocine 2 mg+ levobupivacaine 10 mg + dexmedetomidine 0.5 μg/kg + normal saline 5 ml, and PCEA solution contained dezocine 7.5 mg+ levobupivacaine 150 mg + dexmedetomidine 1.5 μ g/kg + normal saline 100 ml.At 10 min before the end of operation, the loading dose was given via the epidural catheter, and the PCEA pump was connected and set up to deliver a 2 ml bolus dose with a 15-min lockout interval and background infusion at 2 ml/h.Analgesia was maintained until 42 h after operation.Visual analog scale score was main-tained ≤ 3, and (or) visual analog scale for fatigue score ≤ 2.When PCEA failed, morphine 2 mg was injected epidurally as rescue analgesic.At 4, 8, 24 and 42 h after operation, the modified Bromage score and Ramsay sedation score were recorded, and patients' satisfaction with analgesia was evaluated.The occurrence of epidural analgesia-related adverse reactions was recorded.Results The consumption of PCEA solution and requirement for rescue analgesics were significantly lower in group ML than in group DL.Compared with group ML, Ramsay sedation score was significantly decreased at 4 and 8 h after operation, the degree of patients' satisfaction with analgesia was increased, and the incidence of nausea, vomiting, dizziness and pruritus was decreased in DL and DDL groups, and the incidence of urinary retention was decreased in group DDL.The degree of patients' satisfaction with analgesia was significantly higher, and the incidence of dizziness and urinary retention was lower in DDL group than in group DL.No patients developed epidural analgesia-relatcd hypotension, bradycardia, or respiratory depression in the three groups.Conclusion The efficacy of dexmedetomidine mixed with dezocine and levobupivacaine is good when used for PCEA after cesarean section, and the adverse reactions are fewer.
