Abstract:
OBJECTIVE To study the influenceof clonidine on the hemadynamics and plasma catecholamine of the postoperative patients in PACU. METHODS Twenty eight patients suffered from severe OSAHS who underwent modified UPPP and monitored in the PACU after operation were divided randomly into two groups:clonidine group and control group. Both group received the same protocol of sedation and analgesia. Patients in clonidine group received clonidine 3ug/kg injected slowly when entered the PACU,and patients in control group received same volume of NS. Esmolol and Nitroglycerin were used to adjust the hemadynamics. The changing of hemadynamics was recorded,blood samples were taken before operation,2 hours after entering PACU,before discharge from PACU to determine the changing of plasma catecholamine. RESULTS The hemadynamics was more stable in clonidine group than that in control group and less vasoactive agents were needed. The plasma catecholamine was much lower in clonidine group 2 hours after entering PACU and before discharge from PACU than that in control group. CONCLUSION Clonidine could be administered to stabilize the hemadinamics,to lower the level of stress hormone and could improve the recovery of the patients.
