Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the feasibility of using ultrasound-guided lumbosacral plexus block combined with nasopharyngeal airway in hip replacement in elderly patients with pulmonary and lumbar diseases.Methods Eighteen elderly patients who were diagnosed as having puhnonary and lumbar diseases before operation,aged 75-97 yr,with body mass index of 18-22 kg/m2,of American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status Ⅱ or Ⅲ,scheduled for elective unilateral total hip replacement,were enrolled in this study.Unilateral lumbosacral plexus block was performed under the guidance of ultrasound.After completion of block,mild sedation was carried out with propofol,nasopharyngeal airway was implanted,oxygen was inhaled by mask,and sedation was maintained with small doses of propofol during operation.Bispectral index value was maintained at 60-75 during operation.Mean arterial pressure and heart rate were recorded before block,at 15 min after completion of block,before implantation of nasopharyngeal airway and at 1 min after implantation of nasopharyngeal airway.The postoperative nasopharyngeal airway removal time,development of cognitive dysfunction within 7 days after operation and recurrent puhnonary complications and mortality within 30 days after operation were recorded.Results All the patients underwent operation successfully,and vital signs were stable during operation.Nasopharyngeal airway was removed within 5 min after the end of operation,recurrent pulmonary complications were not found,and no patients developed cognitive dysfunction within 7 days after operation.No patient died within 30 days after operation.Conclusion Ultrasound-guided lumbosacral plexus block combined with nasopharyngeal airway produces reliable efficacy and fewer complications when applied to hip replacement and is suitable for elderly patients with pulmonary and lumbar diseases.
