Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the effects of dexmedetomidine on short-term prognosis in elderly patients with gastric cancer after laparoscopic radical gastrectomy.Methods:A total of 60 elderly patients with gastric cancer admitted to Shanxi Provincial Cancer Hospital from June 2018 to September 2019 were selected as the research objects. The patients were randomly divided into the observation group and the control group according to random number method, 30 cases in each group. All patients underwent laparoscopic radical gastrectomy. The patients in the control group received routine intravenous anesthesia, and the patients in the observation group were assisted with intravenous infusion of dexmedetomidine on the basis of anesthesia in the control group. The general situation during and after surgery, hemodynamics and postoperative delirium of patients in the two groups were observed and compared.Results:The anal exhaust time and hospitalization time in the observation group was shorter than that in the control group [(72±10) h vs. (79±13) h, t = 8.384, P = 0.031; (11.0±1.7) d vs. (12.9±1.9) d, t = 7.404, P = 0.022]. While the time of abdominal drainage was (8.4±2.8) d and (8.6±1.6) d, respectively in the observation group and the control group, and the difference was not statistically significant ( t = 0.958, P = 1.092); the volume of abdominal drainage was (534±50) ml and (545± 55) ml, respectively, and the difference was not statistically significant ( t = 0.847, P = 1.202). Compared with the preoperative baseline, the mean arterial pressure (MAP) in the two groups was stable during the operation. At extubation, the MAP in the control group [(104±5) mmHg, 1 mmHg = 0.133 kPa] was higher than that in the observation group [(92±7) mmHg] ( t = 7.383, P < 0.01); in the control group, the MAP at extubation was also higher compared with the preoperative MAP [(92±9) mmHg] ( P < 0.05). The heart rate in the observation group was lower than that before surgery and the same period in the control group.The incidence rate of delirium and suspicious delirium was 3% (1/30) and 7% (2/30) in the observation group, 10% (3/30) and 13% (4/30) in the control group within 7 d after surgery, and there were statistically significant differences in delirium and suspicious delirium between the two groups ( χ2 = 9.394, 7.485, all P < 0.05). Conclusion:Dexmedetomidine can reduce the incidence of delirium in elderly patients with gastric cancer after laparoscopic radical gastrectomy, and make the hemodynamics more stable and recovery faster.
