Abstract:
Objective To compare the effectiveness between ultrasound-guided paravertebral block(PVB)and general anesthesia in percutaneous nephrolithotomy(PCNL).Methods Clinical data of 284 patients who underwent PCNL in our hospital from January 2023 to March 2024 were collected.These were 78 cases of PVB(PVB group)and 206 cases of general anesthesia(general anesthesia group).A total of 61 cases in each of the two groups were matched with propensity score,and the operative time,intraoperative fluid infusion volume,postoperative haemoglobin changes,postoperative visual analogue scale(VAS),hospital stay,hospital costs,and incidence of postoperative complications were compared.Results The operations were completed in both groups of patients successfully,with stable vital signs during the operation and no intraoperative anesthetic complications such as bradycardia,respiratory depression,or hypotension.There were significant differences between the two groups in heart rate(HR)before the start of surgery[(66.5±10.4)beats/min vs.(77.5±11.7)beats/min,t=-5.471,P=0.000],HR at the end of surgery[(60.5±8.4)beats/min vs.(71.0±12.3)beats/min,t=-5.472,P=0.000],mean arterial pressure(MAP)before the start of surgery[(97.2±11.9)mm Hg vs.(103.1±12.3)mm Hg,t=-2.694,P=0.008],MAP at the end of surgery[(85.2±8.8)mm Hg vs.(94.3±11.6)mm Hg,t=-4.892,P=0.000],pulse oxygen saturation(SpO2)before the start of surgery[(99.0±1.1)％vs.(99.6±0.6)％,t=-3.347,P=0.001]and SpO2 at the end of surgery[(99.2±1.1)％vs.(99.8±0.4)％,t=-4.122,P=0.000].The operative time was significantly shorter in the PVB group than that in the general anesthesia group[55.0(41.5,75.5)min vs.95.0(65.0,130.0)min,Z=-5.173,P=0.000].The postoperative haemoglobin changes[5(2,11)g/L vs.8(4,11)g/L,Z=-2.099,P=0.036],postoperative VAS score[1(1,1)points vs.1(1,2)points,Z=-3.342,P=0.001],postoperative hospital stay[3(2,3)dvs.4(3,6)d,Z=-6.016,P=0.000]and hospital costs[(14 499.4±2141.0)yuan vs.(19 634.2±3846.8)yuan,t=-9.109,P=0.000]were statistically lower in the PVB group than those in the general anesthesia group.Comparison of intraoperative fluid infusion volume[600(600,600)ml vs.600(600,1100)ml,Z=-1.800,P=0.072],postoperative venting time[1(1,1)d vs.1(1,1)d,Z=-1.045,P=0.296],and phase Ⅰ stone removal rate[88.5％(54/61)vs.82.0％(50/61),x2=1.043,P=0.307]showed no significant differences between the two groups.The incidence of postoperative complications in the PVB group was significantly lower than that in the general anesthesia group[6.6％(4/61)vs.19.7％(12/61),x2=4.604,P=0.032].Conclusion Ultrasound-guided PVB in PCNL maintains stable intraoperative vital signs,reduces operative time and bleeding,alleviates postoperative pain,reduces postoperative complications and postoperative hospital stay,and saves medical costs,having a good safety and efficacy.
