Abstract:
Objective To observe the effects of dexmedetomidine on the perioperative stress in patients undergoing uvulopalatopharyngoplasty (UPPP).Methods Sixty patients scheduled for uvulopalatopharyngoplasty (UPPP), all males, aged 18-65 years, of ASA physical status Ⅰ or Ⅱ, were selected randomly.Then the patients were divided into dexmedetomidine group (group D) and control group (group C), 30 patients in each group.The patients of group D were administered 1.0 μg/kg bolus dose of dexmedetomidine over 10 min before tracheal intubation, followed by 0.5 μg·kg-1·h-1 infusion for 12 hours in ICU after surgery.And the patients in group C were given normal saline instead as in group D.The levels of MAP, HR, PaO2, PaCO2, norepinephrine (NE), epinephrine (E), cortisol (Cor), interleukin-6 (IL-6) and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) were recorded at time points of entering operating room (T0), tracheal intubation (T1), 30 min after operation (T2), upon entering ICU (T3), and extubation (T4).Results HR of group D was significantly slower than that of group C during T1-T4 (P<0.05).MAP of group D was lower than that of group C during T1-T4 (P<0.05).The levels of NE, E, Cor, IL-6, TNF-α of group D were significantly lower than that of group C during T1-T4(P<0.05).Compared with group C , the incidence of cough reflex during extubation was lower in group D significantly (P<0.05).Conclusion Intravenous infusion of dexmedetomidine can suppress perioperative stress effectively and stabilize hemodynamics for the patients undergoing UPPP without prolonging the recovering time, extubation time and the duration in ICU.
