Abstract:
Objective Uterine artery embolization (UAE) is a new but well accepted technique for uterine myoma but patients feel severe pain and cramp during and after operation. The purpose of this study was to determine the effectiveness and safety of PCEA with ropivacaine during and after UAE. Methods Eighty ASA 1 - D patients undergoing UAE were randomly divided into four equal groups with twenty patients in each group: group C received oral nimesulide and/or intramuscular pethidine; in group RD0, RD1 and RD2 patients received PCEA with a mixture of 0.2% ropivacaine + 0.004% morphine. An additional 0.005% (RD1 ) or 0.01 % droperidol (RD2 ) was added to the mixture in group RD1 and RD2 . The PCEA regimen consisted of loading dose 6ml, background infusion 2ml/h, bolus dose 2ml and lockout time 10 min. The VAS pain score, Ramsay score, Bruggman comfort score (BCS) and side effects like nausea, vomiting and pruritus were recorded and compared among the 4 groups. Results Pain and cramp in pelvis were common (90% ) during UAE in group C while the patients in groups RD0, RD1 and RD2 felt no pain and cramp. The patients were quiet and cooperative (Ramsay score 2) in group RD0, RD1 and RD2 while the patients in group C were anxious and agitated. The rate of nausea and vomiting was lower in group RD1 and RD2 than that in group C and RD0. No respiratory depression, hypotension and bradyarrliythmia were observed in the four groups. Conclusion PCEA with ropivacaine and morphine can affectively relieve pain during and after UAE with faster recovery and less side effects. PCEA with moderate droperidol (0.005% ) can reduce the rate of natisea and vomiting.
