Abstract:
Objective To investigate the effect of small dose of dexmedetomidine on the development of postoperative nausea and vomiting in the patients undergoing laparoscopic gynecologic surgery.Methods A total of 207 patients,aged 18-60 yr,of American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status Ⅰ or Ⅱ,scheduled for elective laparoscopic gynecologic surgery under general anesthesia,were randomly divided into either dexmedetomidine group (group D,n=103) or control group (group C,n=104) using a random number table.Before induction of anesthesia,dexmedetomidine 0.1 μg/kg was injected intravenously over 1 min in group D,while the equal volume of normal saline was given instead in group C.At 20 min before the end of surgery,dexmedetomidine 0.04 μg/kg was injected intravenously over 30 s in group D.For the patients requiring patient-controlled analgesia (PCA),PCA solution contained sufentanil 125 μg in 125 ml of normal saline.The PCA pump was set up with a 2 ml bolus dose,a 8 min lockout interval and background infusion at a rate of 1 ml/h.Pethidine was used for PCA after surgery in the patients who did not require PCA.Numeric rating scale scores were maintained ＜4 after surgery.Sufentanil 3 μg was injected intravenously as rescue analgesic in postanaesthesia care unit (PACU).The occurrence of nausea and vomiting was recorded within 0-1 h,1-6 h,6-12 h,and 12-24 h periods after surgery.The occurrence of hypotension and bradycardia during surgery,emergence time,Ramsay sedation score on admission to PACU,requirement for sufentanil as rescue analgesic in PACU,requirement for PCA and antiemetics,and occurrence of somnolence and shivering were recorded.Results Pethidine was not given in the patients who did not require PCA in the two groups.Somnolence and shivering were not found in the two groups.Compared with group C,the incidence of bradycardia was significantly increased,the requirement for antiemetics in PACU and incidence of nausea and vomiting within 1 h after surgery were significantly decreased (P＜0.05),and no significant change was found in the emergence time,Ramsay sedation score,requirement for sufentanil as rescue analgesic,requirement for PCA and total incidence of postsurgical nausea and vomiting in group D (P＞0.05).Conclusion For the patients undergoing laparoscopic gynecologic surgery,small dose of dexmedetomedine can only decrease the development of nausea and vomiting in the early postsurgical period (in PACU),and does not influence the recovery from anesthesia.
