Abstract:
Objective To determine the relationship between neuronuscular block induced by cisatracurium for tracheal intubation during anesthesia induction and types of myasthenia gravis (MG).Methods Sixty-five patients of both sexes with MG,aged 20-75 yr,weighing 53-92 kg,with body height of 155-185 cm,of American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status Ⅰ or Ⅱ,undergoing elective videoassisted thoracoscopic thymectomy,were enrolled in the study.Among the 65 patients,there were 8 patients with ocular MG (type Ⅰ),19 patients with mild generalized MG (type]Ⅱ a),33 patients with subacute generalized MG (type Ⅱ b),2 patients with acute MG (type Ⅲ) and 3 patients with late severe MG (type Ⅳ).Neuromuscular monitoring was initiated when the patients lost consciousness after induction of anesthesia.Cisatracurium was administrated with the initial dose of 0.05 mg/kg,and if T1 depression was less than 95% within 6 min,cisatracurium 0.015 mg/kg was intravenously injected until T1 depression was more than 95%.The patients were then tracheally intubated.The amount of cisatracurium consumed for intubation,onset time (from the beginning of cisatracurium injection to T1 depression >95%) and recovery time (recovery of T4/T1 to 25% of control height) of neuromuscular block were recorded.T1 depression > 95% within 6 min after administration of 1-fold ED95 cistracuriun was defined as sensitivity to muscle relaxants.The requirement for cistracurium > 1-fold ED95 when T1 depression > 95% was defined as insensitivity to muscle relaxants.The proportion of sensitivity/insensitivity was calculated.Results There was no significant difference in the amount of cisatracurium consumed for intubation and onset time and recovery time of neuromuscular block between patients with type Ⅰ and those with type Ⅱ a (P>0.05).Compared with patients with type Ⅰ and type]Ⅱ a,the amount of cisatracurium consumed for intubation was significantly decreased,the proportion of sensitivity/insensitivity was increased,the onset time was shortened,and the recovery time was prolonged in patients with type Ⅱ b (P<0.05).Conclusion With the severity of MG,the consumption of cisatracurium is gradually decreased when used for tracheal intubation during anesthesia induction,and the sensitivity is gradually increased in the patients with MG.
