Objective To study the median effective doses (ED50) of dexmedetomidine to induce adequate sedation in elderly patients undergoing epidural anaesthesia. Methods Seventy-five elderly patients undergoing lower extremity operation under epidural anesthesia were selected, and the patients were divided into 5 groups according to the random digits table method with 15 cases each: D1 group (dexmedetomidine 0.2 μg/kg), D2 group (dexmedetomidine 0.4 μg/kg), D3 group (dexmedetomidine 0.6 μg/kg), D4 group (dexmedetomidine 0.8μg/kg) and D5 group (dexmedetomidine 1.0μg/kg). After 20 min of dexmedetomidine injection, adequate sedation was defines as observer′s assessment of alertness/sedation score (OAA/S score) ≤ 3 scores. The ED50 and 95% effective dose (ED95) of dexmedetomidine and 95% CI in elderly patients undergoing epidural anaesthesia were calculated by probit regression method. The changes of mean arterial pressure (MAP), heart rate, pulse oxygen saturation (SpO2) and OAA/S score among 5 groups were compared. The incidences of adverse effects such as hypotension, bradycardia, hypoxemia and excessive sedation were compared. Results The ED50 in elderly patients was 0.36 μg/kg (95% CI 0.27 - 0.44 μg/kg); the ED95 was 0.94 μg/kg (95% CI 0.71 - 1.62 μg/kg). After dexmedetomidine injection, the MBP, heart rate, SpO2 and OAA/S scores in 5 groups were decreased, but in the D4 group and D5 group the decreases were more significant. The incidences of hypotension, bradycardia and excessive sedation in D1 group, D2 group and D3 group were significantly lower than those in D4 group and D5 group:2/15, 5/15 and 8/15 vs. 14/15 and 15/15;1/15, 6/15, 7/15 vs. 13/15 and 14/15;0, 0 and 1/15 vs. 5/15 and 7/15, the incidences of hypoxemia in D1 group, D2 group and D3 group were significantly lower than those in D5 group: 0, 0 and 0 vs. 3/15 and 4/15, and there were statistical differences (P<0.05). There were no statistical differences in incidences of adverse effects between D4 group and D5 group (P>0.05). Conclusions The ED50 of dexmedetomidine in elderly patients undergoing epidural anaesthesia is 0.36μg/kg, (CI 0.27-0.44μg/kg). The incidences of adverse effects are increased when single-dose dexmedetomidine is more than 0.8μg/kg.

Objective To investigate the effects of butorphanol pretreatment on myocardial injury induced by limb ischemia/reperfusion.Methods Forty patients with distal lower extremity orthopedic surgery (ASA Ⅰ or Ⅱ) were divided into two groups by random digits table method with 20 cases each:butorphanol group and control group.Epidural anesthesia was selected in all patients.In butorphanol group,patients were given butorphanol 0.04 mg/kg intravenously 15 min before tourniquet.In control group,equal volume of normal saline was infused at the same time.Blood samples were taken from jugular vein before tourniquet (T0),then 5 min(T1),2 h (T2),6 h (T3),12 h (T4) and 24 h (T5) after the second reperfusion of tourniquet.The serum creatine kinase isoenzyme MB (CK-MB),cardiac troponin Ⅰ (cTnI),tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and malondialdehyde (MDA) levels were determined.Results Compared with those at T0,the serum C K-MB levels were increased at T2-T5,the serum cTnI,MDA,TNF-α levels were increased at T1-T5 in control group,and there were significant differences (P ＜ 0.05).Compared with those at T0,the serum CK-MB levels were increased at T3,T4,the serum TNF-α levels were increased at T1-T3,the serum cTnI levels were increased at T1-T5 in butorphanol group,and there were significant differences (P ＜ 0.05).Compared with those in control group,the serum CK-MB levels were decreased at T2-T5 [(20.2 ± 5.0) U/L vs.(35.3 ±6.8) U/L,(32.3 ±3.7) U/L vs.(48.6 ±8.5) U/L,(29.5 ±5.4) U/L vs.(51.5 ±8.0) U/L,(22.2 ±4.8) U/L vs.(33.7 ±6.7) U/L],the serum cTnI,TNF-α levels were decreased at T1-T5 [(0.158 ± 0.016) μg/L vs.(0.278 ±0.021) μg/L,(0.169 ±0.036) μg/L vs.(0.332 ± 0.062) μg/L,(0.357 ±0.049) μg/L vs.(0.623 ±0.083) μg/L,(0.178 ±0.045) μg/L vs.(0.383 ±0.059) μg/L,(0.138 ±0.016) μg/L vs.(0.263 ±0.023) μg/L; (1.63 ±0.13) μg/L vs.(2.12 ±0.08) μg/L,(1.69 ± 0.08) μ g/L vs.(2.28 ± 0.09) μ g/L,(1.63 ± 0.09) μ g/L vs.(2.25 ± 0.07) μ g/L,(1.23 ± 0.14) μμg/Lvs.(1.93±0.12) μg/L,(1.13±0.15) μμg/Lvs.(1.79±0.07) μμg/L],theserumMDAlevelswere decreased at T1-T4 [(4.82 ±0.53) nmol/L vs.(6.68 ±0.67) nmol/L,(4.99 ±0.61) nmol/L vs.(7.59 ±0.72) nmol/L,(5.02 ±0.43) nmol/L vs.(7.54 ±0.63) nmol/L,(4.52 ±0.55) nmol/L vs.(6.52 ±0.47) nmol/L] in butorphanol group,and there were significant differences (P ＜0.05).Conclusion Butorphanol pretreatment can improve the serum CK-MB,cTnI levels,and has a protective role for myocardial injury induced by limb ischemia/reperfusion.

Objective To investigate the effect of self-designed closed negative pressure drainage combined with sponge dressings on refractory wounds.Methods Sixty patients with phase III-IV pressure ulcers were randomly divided into experiment group and control group in equal number.The self-designed closed negative pressure drainage combined with sponge dressing was applied in the experiment group and in the control group the conventional dressings were used.The two groups were compared in terms of hyperplasia of fresh granulation tissue,time for filling the defect and the healing time and the medical expense.Results Compared to the control group,the time for hyperplasia of fresh granulation tissue,the time for filling the defect and the healing time in the experiment group were all significantly shorter,and the medical expense of the experiment group was significantly less(all P<0.01). Conclusion The self-designed closed negative pressure drainage combined with sponge dressings in the treatment of phase III-IV refractory pressure ulcers may effectively shorten the healing time,improve the curative effects and reduce the economic burden of patients.

Objective To evaluate the effects of butorphanol pretreatment on myocardial damage induced by limb ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) in rats.Methods One hundred and eight male Sprague-Dawley rats,weighing 180-220 g,were randomly divided into 3 groups (n =36 each) using a random number table:sham operation group (group S),I/R group and butorphanol pretreatment group (group B).Limb ischemia was induced by occlusion of bilateral hind limbs for 2 h followed by reperfusion in I/R and B groups.At 10 min before ischemia,butorphanol 0.2 mg/kg was injected via the right jugular vein in group B,while the equal volume of normal saline was injected in group I/R.Six rats were chosen randomly before ischemia (baseline,T0) and at 2,6,12,24 and 48 h after reperfusion (T1-5) and blood samples were taken from the abdominal aorta for determination of the serum creatine kinase isoenzyme-MB (CK-MB) activity and cardiac troponin Ⅰ (cTnI) concentration.The animals were then sacrificed and myocardial specimens were obtained for determination of myocardial apoptosis (using TUNEL) and the expression of c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) and extracellular signal-regulated protein kinase (ERK) (using Western blot analysis).Apoptosis index was calculated.Results Compared with group S,the serum CK-MB and cTnI levels were significantly increased at T1-5,and the apoptosis index and expression of JNK and ERK were increased at T2-5 in group I/R (P ＜ 0.05).Compared with group I/R,the pathological changes of myocardium were significantly reduced at T4,the serum CK-MB and cTnI levels were decreased at T2-5,the apoptosis index was decreased at T4,5,the expression of ERK was up-regulated at T2-5,and the expression of JNK was down-regulated at T2-4 (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Butorphanol pretreatment can reduce apoptosis in myocardial cells through activating MAPK signal transduction pathway,up-regulating ERK expression and down-regulating JNK expression,thus attenuating myocardial damage induced by limb I/R in rats.

Objective To investigate the CT diagnostic value of small bowel wall thickness and density in differentiating simple small bowel obstruction (SI) from strangulative small bowel obstruction (ST).Methods Fifty-three cases with thickened small bowel wall (thickness ＞ 3 mm) confirmed on CT scan were reviewed,including 27 cases of SI and 26 cases of ST,in conjunction with their proven intraoperational,pathological and clinical findings.Of the 53 cases,35 cases also underwent postcontrast CT scan.CT manifestations of relationships between thickened small bowel wall and its density were classified as normal,higher or lower density in tunica mucosa of small bowel wall,higher or lower density in full thickness of small bowel wall for exploring the differential diagnostic features between SI and ST on CT scan.Chi-square or Fisher exact test were used to test the proportion difference of CT scan between SI and ST.Results In cases with normal density in tunica mucosa (NDTM) on precontrast CT,there were 21 cases of SI and 6 cases of ST(x2 =15.859,P ＜0.01).However,in cases with NDTM on postcontrast CT,there were 13 cases of SI and 5 cases of ST,and there was no significant difference (x2 =1.377,P ＞ 0.05).Thus,NDTM showed no convincing value in differentiating SI from ST.In cases with lower density in tunica mucosa (LDTM) on precontrast CT,there were 4 cases of SI and 5 cases of ST (P ＞ 0.05).In cases with LDTM on postcontrast CT,there were 4 cases of SI and 4 cases of ST (P ＞ 0.05).Thus,LDTM also showed no value in differentiating SI from ST.The lower density in full thickness of small bowel wall (LDFTS) was revealed in 0 of SI and 10 cases of ST on precontrast CT (P ＜ 0.01),and 0 of SI and 5 cases of ST on postcontrast CT (P ＜ 0.01),indicating that LDFTS showed significant value in differentiating SI from ST.Conclusion Combining the small bowel wall thickness and density,CT manifestations of early bowel wall pathological changes in small bowel obstruction can be acquired,adding some value in the differential diagnosis between SI and ST.
