Abstract:
Objective To compare the pharmacokinetic profile of propofol administered by target-controlled infusion (TCI) during anesthesia in patients with and without obstructive jaundice. Methods Twenty-four ASAⅠorⅡpatients aged 40-65 yrs weighing 50-75 kg undergoing elective surgery under general anesthesia were divided into 3 groups (n = 8 each) : group A control (serum total bilirubin 171.1?mol?L-1) . Each group received propofol by TCI using Graseby 3500 infusion pump, based on pharmacokinetic parameter set published by Marsh. The target plasma concentration of propofol was set at 3?g?ml-1 . TCI of propofol was started from the induction of anesthesia and maintained until the end of the surgery. Arterial blood samples were taken at 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 6, 8 min after TCI of propofol was started and every 15 min during maintenance of anesthesia and at 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 90, 120, 180, 240 and 300 min after TCI was terminated. Plasma concentrations of propofol were determined by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) with fluorescence detector. NONMEM was used to analyze the pharmacokinetic parameters. Results The 3 groups were comparable with respect to sex ratio, age and body weight. The pharmacokinetic profile of propofol given by TCI was best described by three-compartment open pharmacokinetic model in the majority of patients and by two-compartment open pharmacokinetic model in a few patients. There were no significant differences in the pharmacokinetic profile of propofol among the 3 groups. Conclusion Obstructive jaundice does not affect the pharmacokinetics of propofol.
