Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the efficacy of dexmedetomidine combined with remifentanil for drug-induced sleep endoscopy (DISE) in the patients with snoring. Methods Sixty patients of both sexes with snoring, aged 18-61 yr, with body mass index of 21. 0-33. 1 kg∕m2 , of American Society of Anesthe-siologists physical statusⅠ or Ⅱ, scheduled for elective DISE, were randomly divided into either dexme-detomidine combined with propofol group (group P) or dexmedetomidine combined with remifentanil group (group R), with 30 patients in each group. Dexmedetomidine was infused within 10 min in a loading dose of 0. 6 μg∕kg, followed by an infusion of 0. 6 μg·kg-1 ·h-1 for 10 min in both groups. Then propofol was given by target-controlled infusion with the initial target effect-site concentration (Ce) of 1. 0 μg∕ml in group P, and remifentanil was given by target-controlled infusion with the initial target Ce of 1. 5 ng∕ml in group R. At 2 min after the target effect-site and plasma concentrations were balanced, the Ces of propofol and remifentanil were adjusted by increments of 0. 2 μg∕ml and 0. 2 ng∕ml, respectively, until satisfactory snoring occurred and then the Ce was maintained at this level in P and R groups. Bispectral index value was re-corded at 5 min after admission to the operating room (T1 ), at 20 min of dexmedetomidine infusion (T2 ), at 2 min after the target effect-site and plasma concentrations were balanced (T3 ), at the beginning of DISE (T4 ), when the nasopharyngolarygnoscope reached the site of oropharynx (T5 ) and at the end of DISE (T6 ). Observer's Assessment of Alertness∕Sedation scale scores were recorded at T1-4 . The time for prepar-ing sedation, recovery time, the lowest value of SpO2 and development of adverse events were recorded. Re-sults Sixty patients completed DISE successfully. Compared with group P, the bispectral index value at T3-6 was significantly increased, the time for preparing sedation was prolonged, the recovery time was short-ened, the lowest value of SpO2 was increased, and the incidence of respiratory depression was decreased in group R (P< 0. 05). There was no significant difference in Observer's Assessment of Alertness∕Sedation scale scores at T1-4 between two groups ( P> 0. 05). Conclusion Combination of dexmedetomidine and remifentanil produces better efficacy for DISE than combination of dexmedetomidine and propofol in the pa-tients with snoring.
