Objective To investigate the effect of postoperative sleep disturbance by infusion of low dose esketamine during ambulatory laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Methods Patients undergoing ambulatory laparoscopic cholecystectomy under general anesthesia in General Hospital of Northern Theater Command between August and November 2024 were selected. They were randomly divided into esketamine group and control group based on a random number generator. Patients in the esketamine group received a continuous infusion of esketamine [0.3 mg/(kg·h)] during the operation. Patients in the control group received the equivalent volume of saline. The scores of the Athens Insomnia Scale on the first day before surgery, the first day after surgery, and the third day after surgery, the incidence of sleep disturbance and the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale score on the first day and the third day after surgery, mean artial pressure and heart rate during surgery, operation time, anesthesia time, recovery time, total dosage of remifetanil and vasoactive drug, postoperative adverse reactions, and the Visual Analogue Scale score on the day of surgery and the first day after surgery were compared between the two groups. Results A total of 105 patients were included, including 52 in the control group and 53 in the esketamine group. The differences were statistically significant in the incidence of sleep disorders on the first day after surgery (22.64% vs. 46.15%; χ2=6.440, P=0.011), the Athens Insomnia Scale score on the first day after surgery [4 (1.5, 5) vs. 5 (4, 7); Z=?2.933, P=0.003] , the cumulative amount of remifentanil used during surgery [884 (600, 1 112) vs. 572 (476, 872) μg; Z=?2.774, P=0.006], and the Visual Analogue Scale score on the day of surgery [2 (2, 3) vs. 3 (2, 3); Z=?2.488, P=0.013] between the esketamine group and the control group. There was no significant difference in mean arterial pressure, heart rate, operation time, anesthesia time, recovery time, vasoactive drug dosage, Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale score or incidence of postoperative adverse reactions between the two groups (P＞0.05). Conclusion Continuous intraoperative infusion of low dose esketamine can improve postoperative sleep disturbance, without increasing the incidence of postoperative adverse reactions in patients undergoing ambulatory laparoscopic cholecystectomy.
Objective
To investigate the effects of dexmedetomidine combined with subanesthetic doses of ketamine on cognitive function after surgery for elderly patients with femoral neck fractures.
Methods
A total of 78 elderly patients with femoral neck fracture who were admitted to hospital between January 2015 and June 2016 were divided into the control group (n=38) and the study group (n=40) according to the admitting time. The cases in the control group were treated with dexmedetomidine given anesthesia and the cases in the study group received dexmedetomidine combined with subanesthetic dose of ketamine. The incidences of postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) and the scores of Mini-mental State Examination (MMSE) and Ramsay scores were compaired, and serum levels of interleukin-6 (IL-6) and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) were detected.
Results
There was no difference in operation time, blood loss, blood pressure and oxygen partial pressure between the two groups (P>0.05). The 1-, 3-day postoperative incidences of POCD in the study group were significantly lower than those in the control group (P<0.05). The 1-, 3-, 7-day postoperative MMSE scores and Ramsay sedation scores 1 hour, 3 and 6 hours after stopping anaesthetic drugs in the study group were significantly higher than those in the control group (P<0.05). The 1-, 3-day postoperative serum levels of IL-6 and TNF-α in the study group were significantly lower than those in the control group (P<0.05).
Conclusion
For elderly patients with femoral neck fracture after surgery, taking dexmedetomidine flax composite drunk dose of ketamine anesthesia method helps to reduce the incidence of postoperative cognitive dysfunction.
Objective To systemically review the clinical application of esketamine for postoperative analgesia in cesarean section. Methods Databases including CNKI, VIP, WanFang Data, PubMed, EMbase, Web of Science, and The Cochrane Library were searched for randomized controlled trials (RCTs) on esketamine in cesarean section from inception to January 2022. Two reviewers independently screened the literature, extracted data, and assessed the risk of bias of the included studies. Meta-analysis was then performed using RevMan 5.4 software. Results A total of 16 RCTs involving 1 715 cesarean section patients were included. The results of meta-analysis showed that esketamine decreased the patients’ visual analog scale scores after surgery (MD=?0.67, 95%CI ?0.86 to ?0.49, P<0.000 01) and reduced the need for analgesics for 48 hours after surgery (MD=?2.38, 95%CI ?3.15 to ?1.62, P<0.000 01) compared with the control drugs (such as opioids, ropivacaine, and normal saline), without increasing adverse reactions such as nausea and vomiting (RR=0.84, 95%CI 0.62 to 1.12, P=0.23), hallucinations (RR=3.00, 95%CI 0.37 to 24.43, P=0.30), drowsiness (RR=1.49, 95%CI 0.16 to 13.99, P=0.73), itching (RR=1.05, 95%CI 0.79 to 1.41, P=0.72), hypotension (RR=0.31, 95%CI 0.04 to 2.40, P=0.26), bradycardia (RR=0.40, 95%CI 0.01 to 11.24, P=0.59), and dizziness (RR=2.24, 95%CI 0.63 to 7.94, P=0.21). Compared with the control drugs, esketamine extended the operation time (MD=2.23, 95%CI 1.73 to 2.74, P<0.000 01), accelerated heart rate (MD=1.31, 95%CI 0.25 to 2.37, P=0.02), and increased the mean arterial pressure (MD=3.88, 95%CI 0.19 to 7.56, P=0.04) during surgery. Additionally, esketamine improved the Apgar score of neonates (MD=0.45, 95%CI 0.26 to 0.63, P<0.000 01) and the Edinburgh postnatal depression scale score of mothers (MD=?1.12, 95%CI ?1.87 to ?0.55, P=0.000 3), having no effects on the cord blood pH of neonates (MD=0.03, 95%CI ?0.01 to 0.07, P=0.14). Conclusion Esketamine has certain advantages when used for postoperative analgesia in cesarean section. Due to the limited quantity and quality of the included studies, more high-quality studies are needed to further verify the above conclusion.
【摘要】 目的 觀察在腹腔鏡膽囊切除術中，氯胺酮超前鎮痛對瑞芬太尼麻醉后急性疼痛的影響。 方法 2009年10月-2010年1月，將擇期行腹腔鏡膽囊切除術患者90例，隨機分為對照組（C組）、氯胺酮超前鎮痛組（K組）、氯胺酮術畢鎮痛組（K1組），每組30例。所有患者均采用瑞芬太尼復合丙泊酚靜脈麻醉，K組在切皮前靜脈給予氯胺酮0.5 mg/kg，K1組在關腹前靜脈給予氯胺酮0.5 mg/kg，C組不給予任何藥物。記錄術畢患者麻醉恢復情況，各時間點疼痛程度。 結果 K組、K1組躁動發生率均明顯低于C組（Plt;0.05）；術后2、4、8、24 h，K組VAS評分及鎮痛藥使用率明顯低于C組和K1組（Plt;0.05）。 結論 氯胺酮超前鎮痛能明顯降低瑞芬太尼術后疼痛，并且不增加并發癥發生率。【Abstract】 Objective To evaluate the preemptive analgesia of ketamine on remifentanil induced acute postoperative pain after laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Methods Ninty patients scheduled for laparoscopic cholecystectomy between october 2009 to Jannary 2010 were randomly assigned to three groups (n=30). Group K was administrated with 0. 5 mg/kg ketamine intravenously before skin incision, and Group K1 were administrated with 0. 5 mg/kg ketamine intravenously before abdominal closure, while Group C received nothing. The recovery and the side effects were recorded, the VAS at two, four, eight and 24 hours after surgery, and the use of anodyne were recorded. Results The incidence of restlessness in Groups K and K1 was remarkably lower than that of Group C (Plt;0. 05). The analgesic effects two, four, eight and 24 hours after surgery were obviously better in group K than those of Group C and Group K1 (Plt;0. 05). Conclusion Ketamine can produce preemptive analgesia to relieve remifentanil-induced acute pain, and it would not increase incidence of side effects.
