Objective To evaluate the influence of dexmedetomidine(Dex) on sedation and requirement of propofol during anesthesia induction. Methods Thirty patients(ASA Ⅰ or Ⅱ) undergoing selective operation were randomly divided into 2 groups:Dexmedetomidine group (group D,n=15) or control group (group C,n=15). Patients in the group D received 1 μg/kg dex diluted to 10ml over 10 min by pumped infusion and patients in the group C was simply recieved normol saline at the same way.Twenty minutes after administrating the drug,patients in both groups were pumped propofol at the speed of 0.4 mg·kg-1·min-1. When holding up jaw without movement,patients received 1 μg/kg fentanyl and 0.6 mg/kg rocuronium,and endotracheal intubated 1.5 minutes later. RE,SE,Ramsay sedation scale of the patients were recorded before(T0) and after 5,10,20 minutes(T1-T3) of drug adminstration.The minimum dose and total dose of propofol during induction were recorded.Results Compared with group C and T0,RE and SE in group D decreased obviously at T1-T3 (P0.01),while Ramsay sedation scale rised significantly (P0.01). Compared with group C,the minimum dose and the total dose of propofol decreased obviously in group D during induction (P0.01).Conclusion Dexmedetomidine causes sadetive without respiratory depression,and has the propofol sparing effect during anesthesia induction.

Objective To observe the preemptive analgesia effect of parecoxib sodium in patients undergoing laparoscopic cervical carcinoma radical resection.Methods Seventy patients undergoing laparoscopic cervical carcinoma radical resection were randomly divided into 2 groups with 35 cases each. Parecoxib sodium 40 mg was injected intravenously 10 min before operation and repeatedly given every 12 h. Equal volume physiological saline was given at same time in the control group. Two groups received postoperative PCIA with morphine. The numerical rating scale (NRS) was used to rate pain intensity at following time points:immediately after extubation,2,6,12,18,and 24 h after operation. Twenty-four hour morphine consumption and side effects were recorded.Results The NRS rating of pain at each time point in the parecoxib group was significantly lower than that of the control group (P0.05),and the total morphine consumption (10.4±7.6)mg was less than the control (17.7±8.9)mg (P0.05); correspondingly,the incidences of nausea,vomiting and drowsiness were less,and the number of patients left bed for activity was increased in the parecoxib group than those in the control one (P0.05). Conclusion Preoperative parecoxib sodium 40 mg can improve the analgesic effect of PCIA with morphine,and reduce morphine consumption and the incidences of side effects.

Objective To explore the relationship between Bispectral index (BIS) values,Narcotrend index (NTI) values and the predicted effect-site concentration (EC)during target-controlled infusion of propofol. Methods In 30 patients during target-controlled infusion of propofol,the propofol infusion was set at an initial EC of 0.5 mg/L and increased by 0.5 mg/L steps every 5 min until 5 min after the modified observer's assessment of alertness/sedation scale(OAA/S) values reached zero. The predicted EC of propofol,the values of NTI,NTS and BIS were recorded,and the sedation level were examined by the modified OAA/S every 20 s. The predicted EC of propofol and the values of BIS and NTI at LVC and LOC in 5%,50% and 95% of patients were calculated. Results There were good linear correlations between BIS,NTI and the predicted EC of propofol (r2=0.787,0.792).The predicted EC of propofol at LVC in 5%,50% and 95% of patients were 1.2,1.8 and 2.5 mg/L,respectively. The values of BIS and NTI at LVC in 5%,50% and 95% of patients were 78.2,68.2 and 58.2; 73.9,64.9 and 55.8,respectively.The predicted EC of propofol at LOC in 5%,50% and 95% of patients were 1.6,2.6 and 3.5 mg/L,The values of BIS and NTI at LOC in 5%,50% and 95% of patients were 74.6,58.2 and 41.5,66.2,55.8 and 45.3,respectively. Conclusion During target-controlled infusion of propofol,LVC and LOC occurred within a definite range of predicted effect-site concentrations.There were the good linear correlations between BIS,NTI and the predicted EC of propofol.NTI may be more useful than BIS in predicting LVC and LOC because of the smaller range of values for the two clinical end-points.

Objective To observe the effects of sulfentanil with various doses on the Bispectral index and Narcotrend index without nociceptive stimulus under the sevoflurane anesthesia.Methods Forty-eight ASA Ⅰ or Ⅱ patients undergoing gynecological operations were randomly divided into four groups(n=12).All patients were induced with sevoflurane,the end-tidal concentrations of sevoflurane in all groups were adjusted to 1.0 MAC after tracheal intubation. Fifteen minutes later,sufentanil was injected in groups of B,C,D with the doses of 0.25,0.5,1.0 μg/kg respectively. The observations were finished when the values of Bispectral index and the Narcotrend index reached the minimum over 5 min. The values of Bispectral index and the Narcotrend index were recorded every minutes after the sufentanil injection. Results Among all groups,the BIS,Narcotrend values and tmax produced no statistical difference. Compared with the time when conscious lost,BIS and Narcotrend values were significantly lower when sevoflurane anesthesia reached steady state in all groups. The values of BIS and Narcotrend were significant lower after the injection of sufentanil in the groups of B,C and D(P0.05). Conclusion Under the sevoflurane anesthesia with the steady end-tidal concentration of 1.0MAC,sufentanil could reduce the values of BIS and Narcotrend index without nociceptive stimulus without distinction among different doses.

Objective To investigate the effects of thoracic epidural anesthesia and analgesia on cellular immune function and erythrocytes glycometabolism in the patients undergoing thoracic surgery.Methods Forty esophageal carcinoma patients,classified as ASA Ⅰ or Ⅱ,scheduled for elective thoracic surgery were randomly divided into two groups with 20 cases each:group A underwent general anesthesia plus thoracic epidural anesthesia (TEA) during thoracic surgery and received patient-controlled epidural analgesia (PCEA) with fentanyl and ropivacaine postoperatively;group B received general anesthesia during thoracic surgery and patient-controlled intravenous analgesia (PCIA) postoperatively. Venous blood samples were collected for the measurement of Th1,Th2 and the activities of PFK,G-6PD and AR before the induction(T0),2 h after the initiation of the incision(T1),and 4 h(T2),24 h(T3)and 48 h(T4)after surgery. Results The Th1/Th2 ratio in both groups were decreased significantly after completion of surgery compared with baseline levels (P0.05). At T2,T3 and T4 the Th1/Th2 ratio in group A were higher than group B. Compared with these before operation,the activity of PFK was decreased significantly and the activities of G-6PD and AR in erythrocytes were increased markedly at T3 in group B(P0.05).But erythrocytes PFK,G-6PD and AR activity slightly changed in group A.Conclusion These findings show that thoracic epidural anesthesia and PCEA may inhibit Th0 cells to differentiate into Th2 cells,protect cellular immune function and moderate erythrocyte glucose metabolism changes.
