Abstract:
Objective To investigate the change in neuromuscular blocking effect of rocuronium induced by liver dysfunction. Methods Forty patients undergoing elective liver and biliary tract operation under general anesthesia were divided into 2 groups : (A) control group included 20 patients with normal liver function and (B) liver dysfunction group included 20 patients with obstructive jaundice. The premedication consisted of phenobarbital 0.lg and atropine 0.5 mg. Anesthesia was induced with midazolam 0.1 mg?kg-1,fentanyl 6?g?kg-1 and etomidate 0.3 mg?kg-1.The neuromuscular function was monitored by TOF stimulation of the ulnar nerve using accelerograph (Biometer).Rocuronium 0.6 mg?kg-1 was administered iv via the vein in the upper arm.The patients were intubated when T1 was 95% depressed and mechanically ventilated.PETCO2 was maintained at 35-40 mm Hg.The onset time (from the end of injection to T1=0),clinical duration of action (from the end of injection to 25% recovery of T1) and recovery index (T1 from 25% to 95% ) were recorded.MAP, HR and SpO2 were recorded before and at 5 and 10 min after rocuronium injection.Results The demographic data including sex, age and weight were comparable between the two groups. The onset time was (63?19) s in group A and (70?21) s in group B.The difference was not statistically significant. The clinical duration of action was (41?16) min in group A and (67?29) min in group B (P0.05).Conclusion Liver dysfunction induced by obstructive jaundice prolongs the clinical duration of action,but does not significantly affect the onset time of and recovery from rocuronium.
