[Effects of continuous infusion of landiolol on the hemodynamic response to tracheal intubation].

BACKGROUND: The clinical effect of continuous infusion of landiolol with buprenorphine and lidocaine was evaluated for its effects an attenuating the cardiovascular responses to endotracheal intubation. METHODS: Tracheal intubation was performed by the same anesthesiologist after induction of anesthesia with propofol, ketamine, midazolam, buprenorphine and lidocaine, followed by administration of vecuronium, and continuous infusion of saline (Group C; n = 20) or landiolol 0.02 (Group L 2; n = 25) or landiolol 0.04 mg x kg(-1) x min(-1) (Group L4; n = 22). Heart rate (HR), systolic (sBP) and diastolic blood pressure (dBP) were recorded just before induction of anesthesia, just after and 10 min after tracheal intubation. RESULTS: Just after tracheal intubation, HR in the Groups C and L 2, but not in the group L 4, increased significantly from the baseline. Just after the tracheal intubation, sBP in the Group L 2 decreased from the baseline, and 10 min after intubation sBP in all groups decreased significantly from the baseline. Just after tracheal intubation, dBP in all groups was unchanged, and dBP in the Groups C and L 4 decreased from the baseline 10 min after the intubation. CONCLUSIONS: Continuous infusion of landiolol 0.04 mg x kg(-1) x h(-1) with buprenorphine and lidocaine can completely attenuate the hemodynamic response to tracheal intubation.

[Main causes of the emergence delay from balanced anesthesia].

BACKGROUND: Occasionally emergence from anesthesia is delayed. We examined the factors which exert influence on the emergence time. METHODS: The emergence time was assessed in 1133 surgical patients who received balanced anesthesia. Balanced anesthesia was maintained with infusion of propofol, ketamine, vecuronium, and buprenorphine, with nitrous oxide. OT time was defined as the time from the end of operation to extubation, TA time from extubation to leaving the operation room, and these times were examined retrospectively. RESULTS: The emergence time of OT was 3.9 +/- 2.6 min, and that of TA was 3.7 +/- 2.2 min, for all subjects who were extubated in the operating room. Factors affecting the emergence delay were ASA classification, JCS classification, ages, department of surgery, the time of anesthesia, and the anesthesiologists. CONCLUSIONS: When the anesthesiologists keep in mind early emergence and become accustomed to this balanced anesthesia, the emergence time will be shorter, and the extubated cases in the operating room will increase.

[Clinical study of vecuronium maintenance speed in trigeminal microvascular decompression surgery].

BACKGROUND: Patients receiving chronic carbamazepine therapy may be resistant to vecuronium. The purpose of this study was to determine maintenance speed of vecuronium in trigeminal microvascular decompression surgery. METHODS: The vecuronium maintenance speed of the patient for microvascular decompression diagnosed as trigeminal neuralgia (group T: n=18) or hemi-facial spasm (group C: n=18) was examined retrospectively. Anesthesia was induced with propofol, ketamine, midazolam and buprenorphine. Vecuronium was given to facilitate tracheal intubation. The patients received balanced anesthesia with infusion of propofol, ketamine, buprenorphine and vecuronium (60-80 microg x kg(-1) x h(-1)), with nitrous oxide. In both groups the scheduled vecuronium maintenance speed was increased if needed, using the TOF-Watch, at the time of body movement or with more than four TOF count. RESULTS: All patients of group T were medicated with carbamazepine before operation. None of C received carbamazepine. With C, vecuronium maintenance speed was as scheduled. With T, however, scheduled vecuronium speed increased in most of the cases. Actual vecuronium speed was significantly faster with T, compared with C. Although actual speed divided by scheduled speed was 1 in group C, it was 1.4 in T. CONCLUSIONS: Vecuronium maintenance speed is 1.4 times of scheduled speed in patients medicated with carbamazepine.

[Comparison of analgesics used during balanced anesthesia on the incidence of PONV].

BACKGROUND: When we make reference to the quality of anesthesia, we consider three points, early emergence, postoperative pain relief, and postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV). Among these, PONV is comparatively neglected. Many analgesics used during anesthesia may cause PONV. METHODS: The incidence of PONV was assessed in 100 surgical patients who had received balanced anesthesia. Anesthesia was induced with propofol, ketamine, midazolam and buprenorphine (Group P), or butorphanol (Group T), and vecuronium was given to facilitate tracheal intubation. The patients received balanced anesthesia with infusion of propofol, ketamine, vecuronium, and either buprenorphine (Group P) or butorphanol (Group T), with nitrous oxide. PONV was recorded for 24 hours postoperatively. RESULTS: Incidences of nausea were 27.1% in Group P and 15.8% in Group T (NS). Incidences of vomiting were 12.5% in Group P and 5.3% in Group T (NS). However, a high incidence of PONV was found in female (42.2%) vs. male (6.2%) (P < 0.01) and in over 25 BMI group (34.5%) vs. under 25 BMI group (15.5%) (P < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS: The type of analgesics used during balanced anesthesia is not important for development of PONV, but patient's factors, such as gender and BMI, are more closely associated with PONV.
