Abstract:
Objective:To examine the effects of low-dose Esketamine on circulatory function, respiratory function and pain in elderly patients undergoing peripheral vascular interventions, and to provide evidence for appropriate and safe use of Esketamine in elderly patients under anesthesia.Methods:Forty elderly patients with iliac artery stenosis at Beijing Anzhen Hospital affiliated to the Capital Medical University were enrolled and treated with balloon percutaneous transluminal angioplasty(PTA)and stent implantation on a selective basis.Among them, 33 were male and 7 were female with American Society of Anesthesiologists(ASA)physical classification of Ⅱ-Ⅲ.The patients were randomly divided into two groups(20 in each group)using the randomized number method, with the control group(Group C)given 2 ml normal saline intravenously and the Esketamine group(Group L)given Esketamine 0.25 mg/kg intravenously(slow intravenous administration within 1 min). Values of arterial blood pressure and heart rate in stabilized condition in the operating room were collected as the baseline(T0). Five minutes before the surgeon dilated the stenosed iliac artery, intravenous anesthetics were given in both groups as required for the trial.The first 5 minutes before dilatation of the stenosed iliac artery was used as T1, the first 4 minutes as T2, and the first 3 minutes as T3.The recording continued until the 25th minute after anesthetic administration as T30, with a collection of 25-minute blood pressure and heart rate values for analysis.Blood gas analysis was made for arterial blood samples drawn at the time patients entered the operating room(M1), 5 minutes after drug administration(M2), and 10 minutes after drug administration(M3). For all patients, the pain level was recorded using a self-reported scale while the iliac artery was dilated.The doses of vasoactive drugs were recorded from the beginning of the dilatation of the iliac artery to the end of the procedure in patients.Results:In Group C, PaO 2 at M2 was elevated compared with at M1( P=0.003); In Group L, PaCO 2 at M2 was elevated compared with at M1( P=0.011). At T4, systolic blood pressure and diastolic blood pressure were elevated in Group L compared with Group C, and the differences were statistically significant( t=2.403, 2.119, all P<0.05); At T3, heart rate was elevated in Group L compared with Group C, with a statistically significant difference( t=0.789, P=0.007); Compared with Group C, systolic blood pressure was lower in Group L from T6 to T15, with statistically significant differences( t=3.143, 2.403, 2.272, 3.460, 2.610, 2.568, 2.453, 2.367, 2.282, and 2.187, all P<0.05). Diastolic blood pressure was lower in Group L from T8 to T16, with statistically significant differences( t=3.880, 6.602, 2.967, 3.243, 2.641, 3.253, 3.114, 4.521, and 2.659, all P<0.05), and from T7 to T13, the heart rate was lower in Group L, and the differences were statistically significant( t=2.246, 3.285, 3.207, 2.752, 2.725, 2.713, and 2.473, all P<0.05). Compared with Group C, the incidence of dilatation pain in patients with iliac artery stenosis in Group L was lower, and the difference was statistically significant( χ2=6.140, P=0.030). Doses of vasoactive drugs in both groups, including raceanisodamine hydrochloride, norepinephrine, esmolol, and nicardipine, were lower in Group L, and the differences were statistically significant( t=3.573, 7.883, 3.889, and 6.665, P=0.039, 0.001, 0.046, and 0.006). Conclusions:Low-dose Esketamine causes mild respiratory depression and low circulatory excitation in elderly patients with iliac artery stenosis undergoing PTA, and also reduces painful irritation during blood vessel dilatation in elderly patients.
