Abstract:
Objective To investigate different dosage of dexmedetomidine for preventing elderly postanes-thetic shivering.Methods 100 ASAⅠ~Ⅱ elderly patients (60~80 ages)scheduled for laparotomy were enrolled in this study.According to a computer-generated list of random numbers,patients were randomly allocated to receive dexmedetomidine in the four groups:group A (0.9%normal saline),group B (dexmedetomidine 0.25μg/kg),group C (dexmedetomidine 0.5μg/kg),group D (dexmedetomidine 0.75μg/kg).The occurrence of postanesthetic shive-ring and adverse reactions in perioperative period and post operation were observed.Results The incidence rate shiv-ering were 24% and 20% in group C and D,which were significantly lower than 64% in group A (χ2 =5.333,6. 876,all P<0.05),but there was no difference between C and D groups(χ2 =0.117,P>0.05).Rectal temperature was no difference among four groups(F=1.271,P>0.05).Extubation time was shorter in group A(21.6 ±4.0)min than that in group D(24.4 ±2.8)min(F=6.194,P<0.05).Conclusion Our results suggest that dexmedetomi-dine 0.5 or 0.75 μg/kg can prevent shivering after general anesthesia effectively.But potential for delayed extubation time with dexmedetomidine was noted.The loading dose of 0.5 μg/kg dexmedetomidine is recommeded to prevent eld-erly shivering after general anesthesia.
