RESUMEN
Abstract Background: Our objective was to compare the safety and efficacy of Target-Controlled Infusion (TCI) versus intermittent bolus of propofol for colonoscopy sedation. Methods: We conducted a randomized (1:1), single-blind, parallel-group superiority trial with fifty ASA I or II patients, both sexes, aged 18 to 65 years, Body Mass Index ≤ 30 kg.mr-2, undergoing colonoscopy, allocated to receive propofol by TCI (effect-site, 2 μg.mL-1 plus 0.5 μg.mL-1 until unconsciousness and as necessary for agitation) or intermittent bolus (1 mg.kg-1 plus 0.5 mg.kg-1 every 5 minutes or as above). The primary safety outcome was the need for airway maneuvers and the primary efficacy outcome was the need for interventions to adjust the level of sedation. Secondary outcomes included incidence of agitation, propofol dose, and time to recovery. Results: The median (IQR) number of airway maneuvers and interventions needed to adjust sedation was 0 (0-0) vs. 0 (0-0) (p = 0.239) and 1 (0-1) vs. 3 (1-4) (p < 0.001) in the TCI and control groups, respectively. Agitation was more common in the intermittent bolus group - 2 (0-2) vs. 1 (0-1), p < 0.001. The mean ± SD time to recovery was 4.9 ± 1.4 minutes in the TCI group vs. 2.3 ± 1.6 minutes in the control group (p < 0.001). The total propofol dose was higher in the TCI group (234 ± 46 μg.kg-1.min-1 vs. 195 ± 44 μg.kg-1.min-1 (p = 0.040)). Conclusions: During colonoscopy, TCI is as safe as intermittent bolus of propofol while reducing the incidence of agitation and the need for dose adjustments. However, intermittent bolus administration was associated with lower total propofol dose and earlier recovery.

Abstract Introduction: Propofol is a widely used anesthetic and its dose is closely related to aging. Telomere length (TL) is a unique heritable trait, and emerging as a biomarker of aging, health and disease. Telomerase RNA component (TERC) plays an important role in maintaining TL. We proposed a hypothesis that propofol dose in general anesthesia can be predicted by measuring TL before operation, which greatly reduced the risk of anesthesia, especially the elderly. Methods: The association between the propofol dose in anesthesia induction and: TL in the DNA of peripheral blood leukocytes; body weight; sex; difference of the Bispectral Index (BIS) before and after anesthesia induction in patients was evaluated by multivariable linear regression analyses. The mutation at the 5'end or 3'end of TERC was detected. We recruited 100 patients of elective surgery. Results: We found that propofol dose in anesthesia induction was clearly correlated significantly with TL (r = 0.78, p < 0.001), body weight (r = 0.84, p = 0.004), sex (r = 0.83, p= 0.84, p = 0.004), sex (r = 0.83, p = 0.004), and difference of BIS before and after anesthesia induction (r = 0.85, p = 0.029). By comparing the absolute values of standardized regression coefficients (0.58, 0.21, 0.19, and 0.12) of the four variables, it can be seen that TL contributes the most to the propofol dose in anesthesia induction. However, the mutation at the 5' end or 3' end of TERC was not found. Conclusions: These findings provide preliminary evidence that the propofol dose in anesthesia induction was clearly correlated with genetically determined TL. TL may be a promising predictor of the propofol dose, which is beneficial to improve the safety of anesthesia and reduce perioperative complications.

Abstract Background Melatonin has been studied to have anxiolytic, sedative, and analgesic effects. However, there is limited data on the effect of melatonin in the attenuation of hemodynamic response to intubation. We aimed to study whether preanesthetic oral melatonin attenuates hemodynamic responses to intubation and anesthetic requirements. Methods Sixty-four patients scheduled for laparoscopic cholecystectomy were randomized into melatonin or placebo group (n = 32 each). Melatonin group received two tablets (3 mg each) of melatonin, and the placebo group received two tablets of vitamin D3 120 min before induction. Hemodynamic parameters were recorded during induction and postintubation for 15 minutes. Total induction dose of propofol, total intraoperative fentanyl consumption, and adverse effects of melatonin were also noted. Results Postintubation rise in heart rate (HR) was less in the melatonin group compared to the placebo group (10.59% vs. 37.08% at 1 min, respectively) (p< 0.0001). Maximum percentage increase in systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP), and mean blood pressure (MBP) was lesser in melatonin group than placebo group (SBP 9.25% vs. 37.73%, DBP 10.58% vs. 35.51%, MBP 9.99% vs. 36.45% at 1 min postintubation. respectively) (p< 0.0001). Induction dose of propofol (1.42 mg.kg-1 vs. 2.01 mg.kg-1) and the number of patients requiring additional fentanyl intraoperatively (3 vs. 11) were also significantly reduced in the melatonin group. Conclusion Premedication with 6 mg of oral melatonin resulted in significant attenuation of postintubation rise in HR, SBP, DBP, and MBP. It also reduced the induction dose of propofol, total intraoperative fentanyl consumption without any adverse effects.

Introducción: En los últimos años la anestesia libre de opioides ha constituido una alternativa más a las técnicas tradicionales de anestesia general. Con la exclusión de este grupo de fármacos se evitan los múltiples efectos adversos y complicaciones asociados al mismo. A pesar de que la anestesia libre de opioides tiene sus indicaciones y que ha demostrado sus beneficios en cierto grupo de pacientes, existen aún controversias en relación con su utilidad en el paciente obeso. Características como la obesidad hacen que los modelos multimodales empleados para programar la anestesia libre de opioides sean cada vez más complejos. Objetivos: Describir un caso clínico realizado con la técnica de anestesia libre de opioides que constituye la primera experiencia en Ecuador. Presentación del caso: Se presenta el caso de una paciente obesa intervenida de colecistectomía laparoscópica mediante infusión de propofol, ketamina, lidocaína, sulfato de magnesio, y dexmedetomidina. La titulación de estos fármacos se realizó mediante cálculo de concentraciones plasmáticas a través de modelos farmacocinéticos y guiada por monitorización de profundidad anestésica y analgésica, con lo cual se logró optimizar el consumo de fármacos, disminuir las complicaciones y una evolución clínica favorable. Hasta donde se conoce a nivel local y de país (Ecuador) es la primera experiencia que se reporta con esta técnica. Conclusiones: La anestesia libre de opioides puede resultar una elección en el paciente obeso ya que asegura una adecuada recuperación sin efectos adversos asociados(AU)
Introduction: In recent years, opioid-free anesthesia has become another alternative in front of traditional general anesthesia techniques. The exclusion of this group of drugs avoids the numerous adverse effects and complications associated with its usage. Although opioid-free anesthesia has its indications and has showed its benefits in a certain group of patients, there is still controversy regarding its usefulness in the obese patient. Characteristics such as obesity make the multimodal models used to program opioid-free anesthesia increasingly complex. Objectives: To describe a clinical case involving the opioid-free anesthesia technique, which is the first experience in Ecuador. Case presentation: The case is presented of a female obese patient who underwent laparoscopic cholecystectomy by infusion of propofol, ketamine, lidocaine, magnesium sulfate and dexmedetomidine. Titration of these drugs was carried out by calculating plasma concentrations through pharmacokinetic models and guided by monitoring of anesthetic and analgesic depth, thus optimizing drug consumption, reducing complications and achieving a favorable clinical evolution. As far as known locally and in the country (Ecuador), this is the first reported experience with this technique. Conclusions: Opioid-free anesthesia may be a choice in the obese patient, since it ensures adequate recovery without associated adverse effects(AU)

OBJECTIVE@#To evaluate the impact of a history of vaginal delivery on anesthesia management of patients undergoing hysteroscopic surgery under intravenous general anesthesia without tracheal intubation.@*METHODS@#Ninety-nine patients undergoing hysteroscopic surgery under intravenous general anesthesia were enrolled in this study, including 43 patients with (VD group) and 56 patients without a history of vaginal delivery (NVD group). For all the patients, blood pressure, heart rate (HR), blood oxygen saturation (SpO2) and bispectral index (BIS) were recorded before anesthesia (T1), after anesthesia (T2), after cervical dilation (T3), and at 3 min after cervical dilation (T4). Propofol and etomidate doses during anesthesia induction, the total dose of propofol administered, additional intraoperative bolus dose and times of propofol, intraoperative body movement, total operation time and surgeons' satisfaction feedback scores were compared between the two groups. The postoperative awake time, recovery time, VAS score at 30 min after operation, and postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) were also compared.@*RESULTS@#There was no significant differences in SBP, DBP, HR, SpO2, or BIS between the two groups at T1 and T2, but at T3 and T4, SBP and DBP were significantly higher in NVD group than in VD group (P < 0.01); HR was significantly higher in NVD group only at T3 (P < 0.01). The application of vasoactive drugs did not differ significantly between the two groups. The total dose of propofol, additional intraoperative dose and times of propofol were all greater in NVD group than in VD group (P < 0.01). More body movements of the patients were observed in NVD group (P < 0.01), which also had lower surgeons' satisfaction score for anesthesia (P < 0.01), higher postoperative VAS score (P < 0.05), and shorter postoperative awake time (P < 0.05) and recovery time (P < 0.01).@*CONCLUSION@#A history of vaginal delivery has a significant impact on anesthesia management of patients undergoing hysteroscopic surgery under intravenous general anesthesia without tracheal intubation in terms of hemodynamic changes, anesthetic medication, and postoperative recovery quality, suggesting the necessity of individualized anesthesia management for these patients.

In emergency settings, TIVA should be adjusted in accordance to the pharmacological changes observed in the hypovolemic patient. With the understanding that in those cases there is a decrease in drug requirements, there is a tendency to underdose these patients, increasing the possibility of awareness. Variation in central volume concentration and blood flow redistribution increase plasma drug concentration (Cp). Decreased liver and kidney perfusion, hemodilution and hypothermia, all affect metabolism and clearance of drugs. Changes in drug bioavailability are also observed secondary to changes in plasma protein concentration and acidosis. Changes in pharmacodynamic of target organs are the product of metabolic and temperature disturbances. Due to the nature of hypovolemic shock, most systematic studies have been done in animals. In this condition, the volume of distribution and clearance of fentanyl decreases, increasing decremental times hence requiring bolus and infusion adjustment. Similar changes are observed when using remifentanil, but in this case its contextual half-life is not altered. In the case of etomidate use, most changes are observed on V2 and V3, with a minimal pharmacodynamic variation is observed, thus, requiring no adjustment. When propofol is used, the increase in Cp is proportional to the degree of hypovolemia, adding an increased sensitivity when it reaches over 40%. Data fit to the Eleveld's model (from animal data extrapolation) and simulations in TIVA trainer are shown. Experience shows that these suggestions overestimate the dose, especially within the first 10 minutes. Therefore, it is recommended to reduce the target by 50% in the case of crystalloid-based resuscitation and by 20% when colloids are preferred. Finally, ketamine has been repositioned as an analgesic drug, and is not recommended as a hypnotic, except when used with propofol or benzodiazepines. For propofol, a staggered induction is recommended (together with remifentanil and a neuromuscular blocker), maintaining then the concentration at the site of effect with which the unconsciousness was achieved. The use of EEG monitoring will yield a better titration.
En escenarios de urgencia, la TIVA se debe ajustar a los cambios farmacológicos observados en el paciente hipovolémico. En el entendido de que los requerimientos de drogas bajan, se tiende a subdosificar y con ello, aumentar la posibilidad de recuerdo intraoperatorio. La concentración del volumen central y la redistribución de flujo, aumentan la concentración plasmática (Cp) de droga. La disminución del flujo hepático y renal, la hemodilución y la hipotermia afectan el metabolismo y la distribución de las drogas. Cambios en la biodisponibilidad de drogas también se observan secundario a cambios en la concentración de proteínas plasmáticas y acidosis. Cambios farmacodinámicos de los órganos blancos son producto de las alteraciones metabólicas y de temperatura. Por la naturaleza del hipovolémico, los estudios sistemáticos han sido fundamentalmente en animales. El volumen de distribución y aclaramiento del fentanilo disminuyen, aumentando los tiempos decrementales. Requiere ajuste de bolo e infusión. Los mismos cambios se observan en el remifentanilo, sin embargo, su vida media contextual no se altera. Para etomidato se observa una contracción centrada en V2 y V3 y una variación farmacodinámica mínima, por lo que no requiere ajuste. Con propofol el aumento de la Cp es proporcional a la hipovolemia, agregándose aumento de la sensibilidad cuando es mayor del 40%. Se muestran ajustes basados en el modelo de Eleveld (de la extrapolación de datos animales) y simulaciones en TIVAtrainer. La experiencia muestra que estas sugerencias sobrestiman la dosis, especialmente los primeros 10 minutos, por lo que se aconseja disminuir el target en 50% en el caso de la reanimación basada en cristaloides y en 20% cuando se prefieren coloides. Por último, la ketamina se ha reposicionado como droga analgésica, no se recomienda como hipnótico, salvo en presencia de propofol o benzodiacepinas. Para propofol, se recomienda una inducción escalonada (junto con remifentanilo y un bloqueador neuromuscular), manteniendo luego con la concentración en en el sitio de efecto (Ce) con la que se alcanzó el LOC. El monitoreo con EEG permitirá una mejor titulación.

Total intravenous anesthesia (TIVA) with propofol/remifentanil appears in the literatura as a good option for neurosurgical patients who have increased intracranial pressure (ICP),risk of postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV), need for neuromonitoring, and in those with impaired brain self-regulation. On the other hand, in patients with normal neurological status, normal ICP, a technique with volatile (halogenated) agents plus an opiiid can be used. This review describes two anesthetic techniques available for use in neurosurgery, highlighting the neurophysiological changes, advantages and disadvantages of each technique. MATERIAL AND METHOD: PubMed search engine was used for bibliographic search. DISCUSSION: The search for an ideal anesthetic in neurosurgery is still a matter of debate. There are numerous investigations aimed at finding an optimal agent that ensure the coupling between cerebral flow (CBF) and metabolism, keeping self-regulation intact without increasing the CBF and intracerebral pressure (ICP). CONCLUSIONS: Both anesthetic techniques, TIVA and volatile agents (halogenated), can be used in neurosurgical procedures and should provide neuroprotection, brain relaxation and a rapid awakening.
La anestesia total endovenosa (TIVA) con propofol/remifentanilo aparece en la literatura como una buena opción para pacientes neuroquirúrgicos que tienen aumento de la presión intracraneana (PIC), riesgo de náuseas y vómitos posoperatorios (NVPO), necesidad de neuromonitoreo, y en aquellos con alteración de la autorregulación cerebral. Por otra parte, en pacientes con estado neurológico normal, PIC normal puede usarse una técnica con agentes volátiles (halogenados) más un opioide. Esta revisión describe dos técnicas anestésicas disponibles para su uso en neurocirugía, destaca los cambios neurofisiológicos, ventajas y desventajas de cada técnica. MATERIAL Y MÉTODO: Para búsqueda bibliográfica se usó buscador PubMed. DISCUSIÓN: La búsqueda de un anestésico ideal en neurocirugía sigue siendo tema de debate. Existen numerosas investigaciones destinadas a buscar un agente óptimo que asegure el acoplamiento entre flujo sanguíneo cerebral (FSC) y metabolismo, manteniendo la autorregulación intacta sin aumentar el FSC y presión intracerebral (PIC). CONCLUSIONES: Ambas técnicas anestésicas, TIVA y agentes volátiles (halogenados), pueden ser usadas en procedimientos neuroquirúrgicos y deben brindar neuroprotección, relajación cerebral y un despertar rápido.

Abstract Background and objectives Day-case pediatric sedation is challenging. Dexmedetomidine is a sedative analgesic that does not induce respiratory depression. We compared dexmedetomidine to propofol when it was added to ketamine for sedation during pediatric endoscopy, regarding recovery time and hemodynamic changes. Methods We enrolled 120 patients (2−7 years in age) and randomly assigned them into two groups. Each patient received intravenous (IV) ketamine at a dose of 1 mg.kg-1 in addition to either propofol (1 mg.kg-1) or dexmedetomidine (0.5 µg.kg-1). The recovery time was compared. Hemodynamics, oxygen saturation, need for additional doses, postoperative complications and endoscopist satisfaction were monitored. Results There was no significant difference in hemodynamics between the groups. The Propofol-Ketamine (P-K) group showed significantly shorter recovery times than the Dexmedetomidine-Ketamine (D-K) group (21.25 and 29.75 minutes, respectively, p < 0.001). The P-K group showed more oxygen desaturation. Eleven and 6 patients experienced SpO2 < 92% in groups P-K and D-K, respectively. A significant difference was noted regarding the need for additional doses; 10% of patients in the D-K group needed one extra dose, and 5% needed two extra doses, compared to 25% and 20% in the P-K group, respectively (p = 0.001). The P-K group showed less post-procedure nausea and vomiting. No statistically significant difference between both groups regarding endoscopist satisfaction. Conclusions The P-K combination was associated with a shorter recovery time in pediatric upper gastrointestinal endoscopy, while the D-K combination showed less need for additional doses.

Resumo Justificativa e objetivos A sedação ambulatorial pediátrica é um desafio. A dexmedetomidina é um analgésico sedativo que não induz à depressão respiratória. Comparamos a dexmedetomidina ao propofol quando associados à cetamina para sedação durante endoscopia pediátrica, quanto ao tempo de recuperação e às alterações hemodinâmicas. Métodos Foram recrutados 120 pacientes (2−7 anos de idade) que foram aleatoriamente alocados em dois grupos. Cada paciente recebeu cetamina IV na dose de 1 mg.kg‐1, além de propofol (1 mg.kg‐1) ou dexmedetomidina (0,5 µg.kg‐1). Comparamos o tempo de recuperação. A hemodinâmica, saturação de oxigênio, necessidade de doses adicionais, complicações pós‐operatórias e satisfação do endoscopista foram monitoradas. Resultados Não houve diferença significante entre os grupos no que diz respeito à hemodinâmica. O grupo Propofol‐Cetamina (P‐C) apresentou tempos de recuperação significantemente mais curtos do que o grupo Dexmedetomidina‐Cetamina (D‐C) (21,25 e 29,75 minutos respectivamente, p < 0,001). Observou‐se frequência maior de dessaturação de oxigênio no grupo P‐C. Onze e 6 pacientes apresentaram SpO2 < 92% nos grupos P‐C e D‐C, respectivamente. Uma diferença significante foi observada em relação à necessidade de doses adicionais; 10% dos pacientes no grupo D‐C precisaram de uma dose extra e 5% precisaram de duas doses extras, em comparação com 25% e 20% no grupo P‐C, respectivamente (p = 0,001). O grupo P‐C apresentou menos náuseas e vômitos após o procedimento. Não houve diferença estatisticamente significante entre os dois grupos em relação à satisfação do endoscopista. Conclusões A combinação P‐C foi associada a tempo mais curto de recuperação na endoscopia digestiva alta pediátrica, enquanto a combinação D‐C mostrou menor necessidade de doses adicionais.

Abstract Introduction and objectives: The incidence of Postoperative Nausea and Vomiting (PONV) after video cholecystectomy is high. Progress in pharmacological PONV prophylaxis includes a new generation of 5-HT3 antagonists. This study aims to assess the effect of the 5-HT3 antagonist in postanesthetic antiemetic management of patients submitted to laparoscopic cholecystectomy with total intravenous anesthesia. Methods: Sixty individuals who underwent video cholecystectomy were randomized into three groups of 20 individuals according to the treatment administered: 0.125 mg of palonosetron (Group 1); 4 mg of ondansetron associated with 4 mg of dexamethasone (Group 2); 4 mg of dexamethasone (Group 3). General intravenous anesthesia was performed with propofol, remifentanil and rocuronium. The group to which the participant belonged was concealed from the investigator who assessed drug effect. PONV was assessed using the Rhodes Scale at 12 and 24 hours after surgery. Rescue medication was 0.655 to 1.5 mg of droperidol. Results: Group 1 presented a lower incidence of PONV and required less rescue medication in the first postoperative hour. There was no significant difference among the three groups regarding PONV incidence in the first 12 postoperative hours. Groups 1 and 2 were superior to Group 3 regarding the control of PONV from 12 to 24 hours, and after rescue medication from 12 to 24 hours. Group 1 showed significantly superior nausea control in the first 12 postoperative hours. Conclusions: The present study showed evidence that palonosetron is superior to the drugs compared regarding a protracted antiemetic effect and less requirement of rescue drugs, mainly related to its ability to completely inhibit the uncomfortable symptom of nausea.
Resumo Justificativa e objetivo: Náuseas e Vômitos no Pós-Operatório (NVPO) têm alta incidência após videocolecistectomia. Avanços na profilaxia farmacológica de NVPO incluem a nova geração de antagonista 5-HT3. O objetivo deste estudo foi avaliar o efeito do antagonista 5-HT3 no controle antiemético pós-anestésico em videocolecistectomia com anestesia venosa total. Método: Estudo realizado no HC-UFU (Hospital Terciário). Sessenta indivíduos submetidos a videocolecistectomia foram randomizados em três grupos de igual número, sendo administrados 0,125 mg de palonosetrona (Grupo 1); 4 mg de ondasetrona e 4 mg de dexametasona (Grupo 2); ou 4 mg de dexametasona (Grupo 3). A anestesia geral venosa foi realizada com propofol, remifentanil e rocurônio. O avaliador do efeito da droga desconhecia o grupo ao qual o indivíduo pertencia. NVPO foi avaliada aplicando a Escala de Rhodes após 12 e 24 horas do término da cirurgia. Para resgate terapêutico, foi estabelecido 0,655−1,5 mg de droperidol. Resultado: Observou-se no Grupo 1 menor incidência de NVPO e de resgate terapêutico na primeira hora de PO. Não foi observada diferença significativa entre os três grupos com relação a ocorrência de NVPO nas primeiras 12 horas de pós-operatório. Os grupos 1 e 2 foram superiores ao Grupo 3 no que se refere ao controle de NVPO de 12 a 24 horas e após o resgate de 12−24 horas. Observou-se que o controle de náuseas nas primeiras 12 horas de pós-operatório do Grupo 1 foi significantemente superior. Conclusão: O presente estudo mostrou evidências da superioridade da palonosetrona às demais drogas empregadas no que se refere ao efeito antiemético prolongado e menor necessidade de resgate, principalmente na capacidade de inibir completamente o desconfortável sintoma de náusea.

Abstract Background: Postoperative Nausea and Vomiting (PONV) is a multifactorial surgical complication with an unclear underlying cause. Anesthetic methods, patients' characteristics and the type of surgery are considered as factors affecting PONV. This study was designed to compare the effect of inhalational and intravenous anesthesia in abdominal surgery on the incidence and severity of PONV. Methods: A single-blinded prospective randomized clinical trial on 105 patients aged 18 − 65 years was carried out. Patients were divided into two groups of Total Intravenous Anesthesia (TIVA) and inhalational anesthesia. The incidence and the severity of PONV were examined at 0, 2, 6, 12 and 24 hours after the surgery. The use of a rescue antiemetic was also evaluated. Results: 50.9% of the patients in the inhalation group and 17.3% of the patients in the intravenous group developed PONV (p < 0.001). The incidence of vomiting was reported in 11.3% of the inhalational group and 3.8% of the TIVA group (p = 0.15). 24.5% of patients in the inhalation group and 9.6% of patients in the intravenous group needed an antiemetic medication (p = 0.043). Conclusion: The incidence of postoperative nausea and vomiting and the need for administration of an antiemetic rescue drug and the severity of nausea in patients were significantly lower in the TIVA group.
Resumo Justificativa: Náusea e Vômito no Pós-Operatório (NVPO) é uma complicação multifatorial com etiologia não esclarecida. A técnica anestésica, as características dos pacientes e o tipo de cirurgia são considerados fatores que afetam a NVPO. O presente estudo foi desenhado para comparar o efeito da anestesia inalatória com anestesia intravenosa na incidência e gravidade de NVPO na cirurgia abdominal. Método: Foi realizado estudo clínico mono-cego prospectivo randomizado com 105 pacientes com idades de 18 − 65 anos. Os pacientes foram divididos em dois grupos, Anestesia Total Intravenosa (TIVA) e anestesia inalatória. A incidência e gravidade de NVPO foram avaliadas em cinco momentos: 0, 2, 6, 12 e 24 horas pós-cirurgia. O uso de antiemético de resgate também foi avaliado. Resultados: NVPO ocorreu em 50,9% dos pacientes no grupo inalatória e 17,3% dos pacientes no grupo TIVA (p< 0,001). A incidência de vômitos relatados foi 11,3% no grupo Inalatória e 3,8% no grupo TIVA (p = 0,15). Necessitaram de medicação antiemética 24,5% dos pacientes no grupo Inalatória e 9,6% dos pacientes no grupo TIVA (p = 0.043). Conclusão: A incidência de náusea e vômito no pós-operatório, a necessidade de administração de droga antiemética de resgate e a gravidade da náusea foram significantemente mais baixas no grupo TIVA.

OBJECTIVE@#To analyze the clinical data of patients undergoing intravenous sedation in oral and maxillofacial surgery, to understand the epidemiological characteristics, to evaluate the efficacy and safety of intravenous sedation for oral surgery, and to summarize our experience.@*METHODS@#We retrospectively reviewed the clinical data of patients undergoing intravenous sedation between January 2010 and December 2018 in the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, Peking University School of Stomatology. The gender, age, source, disease types, the values of perioperative vital signs, the use of sedatives and analgesics, duration of surgery and sedation, effect of sedation during the operation and the postoperative anterograde amnesia were analyzed.@*RESULTS@#A total of 2 582 patients experienced oral surgery by intravenous sedation. The peak age was 3.5 to 10 years and between 21 to 40 years. Supernumerary teeth (38%, 981/2 582) and impacted third molars (30%, 775/2 582) were the major disease types, and other types of disease accounted for 32 percent (826/2 582). The values of heart rate(HR), mean arterial pressure(MAP), respiration rate(RR) and bispectral index(BIS) showed statistically significant differences at the time of before sedation, local anesthesia injection, surgical incision, 10 min after operation and the end of operation. In the study, 69%(1 781/2 582) cases received midazolam alone, 7%(181/2 582) cases received propofol alone, and 24% (620/2 582) cases received midazolam and propofol combined for intravenous sedation. Fentanyl (33%, 852/2 582)was the most common intravenous analgesic we used, followed by flurbiprofen axetil (23%, 594/2 582) and ketorolac tromethamine (6%, 157/2 582). Besides, 35% (907/2 582) patients didn't use any intravenous analgesic during the surgery. The average operation time was (31.2±20.8) min, and the average sedation time was (38.4±19.2) min. During the surgery procedure, most of the patients scored on a scale of 2 to 4 according to the Ramsay sedation score (RSS). The postoperative anterograde amnesia rates of local anesthesia injection, surgical incision and dental drill during surgery were 94% (2 431/2 582), 92% (2 375/2 582) and 75% (1 452/1 936).@*CONCLUSION@#Intravenous sedation on the oral and maxillofacial surgery is effective and safe, can make the patients more comfortable, and should be further promoted and applied.

ABSTRACT Objective: To report on a case of malignant hyperthermia in a child after a magnetic resonance imaging of the skull was performed using sevoflurane anesthesia. Case description: A 3-year-old boy admitted to the pediatric intensive care unit after presenting clinical and laboratory findings consistent with unspecified viral meningoencephalitis. While the patient was sedated, a magnetic resonance imaging of the skul was performed using propofol followed by the administration of sevoflurane through a laryngeal mask in order to continue anesthesia. Approximately three hours after the start of the procedure, the patient presented persistent tachycardia, tachypnea, generalized muscular stiffness and hyperthermia. With a diagnostic hypothesis of malignant hyperthermia, dantrolene was then administered, which immediately induced muscle stiffness, tachycardia, tachypnea and reduced body temperature. Comments: Malignant hyperthermia is a rare pharmacogenetic syndrome characterized by a severe hypermetabolic reaction after the administration of halogenated inhalational anesthetics or depolarizing muscle relaxants such as succinylcholine, or both. Although it is a potentially fatal disease, the rapid administration of continued doses dantrolene has drastically reduced the morbidity and mortality of the disease.
RESUMO Objetivo: Relatar um caso de hipertermia maligna em criança após exame de ressonância magnética de crânio realizada sob efeito anestésico de sevoflurano. Descrição do caso: Menino de três anos de idade, admitido na Unidade de Terapia Intensiva Pediátrica (UTIP) após apresentar quadros clínico e laboratorial compatíveis com meningoencefalite viral não especificada. Foi realizado um exame de ressonância magnética de crânio com sedação utilizando, na indução anestésica, o propofol seguido pela administração de sevoflurano por meio de máscara laríngea para manutenção anestésica. Aproximadamente três horas após o início do procedimento, o paciente apresentou taquicardia, taquipneia, rigidez muscular generalizada e hipertermia persistentes. Com hipótese diagnóstica de hipertermia maligna, foi então administrado dantrolene, que fez ceder de forma imediata a rigidez muscular, a taquicardia, a taquipneia e reduziu a temperatura corporal. Comentários: A hipertermia maligna é uma síndrome farmacogenética rara, que se caracteriza por reação hipermetabólica grave após administração de anestésicos inalatórios halogenados e/ou relaxantes musculares despolarizantes, como a succinilcolina. Apesar de ser uma doença potencialmente fatal, a rápida administração de dantrolene, junto às doses de manutenção, tem reduzido drasticamente a morbimortalidade da doença.

INTRODUCTION: Tonsillectomy with or without adenoidectomy is one of the most frequent surgeries in the pediatric population. It has become predomi- nantly an outpatient procedure. Therefore, it is of utmost importance identi- fying the factors that influence the intraoperative bleeding to prevent posto- perative complications and rehospitalization. MATERIAL AND METHODS: An observational cross-sectional study was carried out. Patients between 1 and 14 years old that underwent to tonsillectomy with or without adenoidectomy since November 2015 to May 2017 were included. 709 cases were evaluated. Intraoperative bleeding was assessed by the volumetric method. A multivariate analysis was performed using a generalized linear regression model. RESULTS: The average intraoperative bleeding was estimated in 1.9 ml/kg (95% CI: 1.7 -2.05). The use of propofol (30% increase in bleeding) and surgical time (2% increase for every minute) were risk factors. The use of electrocautery was as- sociated with a 50% decrease in bleeding in comparison with conventional dis- section (p = 0.001). CONCLUSION: The use of propofol and a prolonged surgical time were risk factors for intraoperative bleeding. The use of electrosurgery was a protective factor.
INTRODUCCIÓN: La amigdalectomía con o sin adenoidectomía, es una de las cirugías más frecuente en población pediátrica. Desde hace varios años se ha vuelto una intervención predominantemente ambulatoria, por lo que lograr identificar los factores que influyen en el sangrado intraoperatorio es de suma importancia para prevenir complicaciones postoperatorias y reshospitalización. MATERIAL Y MÉTODO: Se realizó un estudio observacional de corte-transversal. Se incluyó a pacientes entre 1 y 14 años sometidos a amigdalectomía con o sin adenoidectomía entre noviembre de 2015 y mayo de 2017, obteniendo un total de 709 casos evaluados. Se determinó el sangrado intraoperatorio de forma volumétrica. Posteriormente, se realizó un análisis multivariado con un modelo de regresión lineal generalizado. RESULTADOS: Se cuantificó el sangrado intraoperatorio promedio en 1,9 ml/kg (IC 95%; 1,7-2,05). El uso de propofol (aumento del 30% del sangrado) y tiempo quirúrgico (2% por cada incremento de un minuto) fueron factores de riesgo. Mientras que el uso de electro bisturí se asoció con una disminución del 50% en relación al no uso (p = 0,001). CONCLUSIONES: Fueron factores de riesgo para sangrado intraoperatorio el uso de propofol y un tiempo quirúrgico prolongado. El uso de electrobisturí constituyó un factor protector.

Abstract Background and objectives According to the manufacturer, the Bispectral Index (BIS) has a processing time delay of 5-10 s. Studies addressing this have suggested longer delays. We evaluated the time delay in the Bispectral Index response. Methods Based on clinical data from 45 patients, using the difference between the predicted and the real BIS, calculated during a fixed 3 minutes period after the moment the Bispectral Index dropped below 80 during the induction of general anesthesia with propofol and remifentanil. Results The difference between the predicted and the real BIS was in average 30.09 ± 18.73 s. Conclusion Our results may be another indication that the delay in BIS processing may be much longer than stated by the manufacture, a fact with clinical implications.
Resumo Justificativa e objetivos De acordo com o fabricante, o índice bispectral (BIS) tem um tempo de processamento de cinco a dez segundos. Estudos que avaliaram esse tempo de processamento sugeriram atrasos mais longos. Nós avaliamos o tempo de atraso na resposta do BIS. Métodos Com base em dados clínicos de 45 pacientes, calculamos a diferença entre o tempo de atraso previsto e real do índice bispectral durante um período fixo de três minutos após o momento em que o BIS caiu abaixo de 80 durante a indução da anestesia geral com propofol e remifentanil. Resultados A diferença entre o BIS previsto e real foi em média 30,09 ± 18,73 segundos. Conclusão Nossos resultados sugerem que o atraso no processamento do índice bispectral pode ser muito maior do que o declarado pelo fabricante, um fato com implicações clínicas.

Abstract Introduction: Intravenous general anesthesia is an anesthetic technique that can be administered with TCI (target-controlled infusion) or closed-loop systems. The authors designed an automatic delivery system using clinical variables such as bispectral index (BIS), heart rate, and blood pressure. Objective: To evaluate the clinical and technical performance of this controller by comparing it to a TCI system. Methods: This was a single-blind, randomized, controlled clinical trial in which 150 patients were recruited: 75 for the TCI group and 75 for the closed loop with BIS. Clinical performance was determined according to the mean percentage of time spent in the BIS range of 40 to 60 during anesthetic maintenance. In addition, adequate intraoperative analgesia, technical performance, intraoperative awakening, and intraoperative recall were evaluated. Results: The primary outcome showed a mean BIS time between 40 and 60 for the closed loop of 75.24% (± 15.78) versus 59.5% (± 20.3) for the TCI system, with an absolute difference of 15.8%, 95% confidence interval (CI): 9.9 to 21.65, P < 0.0001. The mean time in intraoperative analgesia was 82.4% (25.1) in closed loop and 70.77% (± 32.8) in TCI, with a difference of 4.76 (95% CI: 2.23-21.06), P = 0.016. There was no difference in intraoperative recall. Conclusion: The closed-loop system was better at maintaining a BIS in the range of 40 to 60 during a general anesthetic than the open system or TCI.
Resumen Introducción: La anestesia total endovenosa es una técnica anestésica que puede administrarse con sistemas de TCI (Target Controlled Infusión) o de lazo cerrado. Los autores diseñaron un sistema de administración automática empleando variables clínicas como índice biespectral (BIS), frecuencia cardiaca y presión arterial. Objetivo: Evaluar el desempeño clínico y técnico de este controlador, comparándolo con un sistema de TCI. Métodos: Este fue un ensayo clínico controlado, aleatorizado y de ciego único, en el cual se reclutaron 150 pacientes: 75 en el grupo de TCI y 75 en lazo cerrado con BIS. El desempeño clínico fue determinado de acuerdo al porcentaje promedio de tiempo de permanencia en el rango de BIS entre 40-60 durante el mantenimiento anestésico. Adicionalmente se evaluó analgesia intraoperatoria adecuada, desempeño técnico, despertar intraoperatorio y recuerdo intraoperatorio. Resultados: Para el desenlace primario se encontró un tiempo promedio de BIS entre 40-60 para el lazo cerrado de un 75.24% (+/-15.78) vs. 59.5% (+/- 20.3) para el sistema TCI, con una diferencia del 15.8%, IC del 95%: 9.9 a 21.65, p < 0.0001. El promedio de tiempo en analgesia intraoperatoria adecuada fue del 82.4% (25.1) en lazo cerrado y 70.77% (+/- 32.8) en TCI, con una diferencia de 4.76 (IC del 95%: 2.23 a 21.06), p=0.016. No hubo diferencias en recuerdo intraoperatorio. Conclusión: El sistema de lazo cerrado fue mejor para mantener un BIS en rango de 40-60 durante un acto anestésico que el sistema abierto o TCI.

Resumen Objetivo: tradicionalmente, la sedación con propofol ha estado a cargo de especialistas en anestesiología; sin embargo, una extensa cantidad de información publicada ha demostrado que la sedación con propofol administrado por no anestesiólogos, es segura y eficaz. El estudio se realizó con el objetivo de evaluar la seguridad en la administración de propofol por gastroenterólogos, para la realización de procedimientos en endoscopia digestiva. Métodos: se hizo un estudio retrospectivo en el cual se revisaron los expedientes de 1135 pacientes sometidos a endoscopias digestivas diagnósticas y terapéuticas, en el período comprendido entre enero de 2016 y marzo de 2017. Los pacientes se organizaron por su: edad, género, clasificación de riesgo de la Sociedad Americana de Anestesiólogos, indicación para la endoscopia, y dosis utilizada de propofol. Se registraron los efectos adversos asociados al uso de Propofol, tales como: episodios de hipoxemia transitoria, complicaciones cardiopulmonares serias y muerte. Resultados: se incluyeron los datos de 1135 pacientes (56 % fueron mujeres) que se practicaron endoscopia digestiva bajo sedación con propofol administrado por gastroenterólogos, en un período de 14 meses. La dosis promedio utilizada de propofol fue de 154 +/- 66 mg. Según la clasificación de riesgo de la Sociedad Americana de Anestesiólogos, el 84 % de los pacientes corresponde a las clasificaciones I y II, un 14,8 % a pacientes con clasificación de riesgo III y un 1,1 %, riesgo IV. Los estudios efectuados fueron mayoritariamente gastroscopias (52,6 %) y según la indicación, el 79,6 % corresponde a estudios diagnósticos, seguido de un 12,1% para los sangrados digestivos altos de emergencia. En cuanto a las complicaciones documentadas, se identificaron 70 episodios de hipoxemia que corresponden a un 6,2 % de las sedaciones realizadas. (IC 95%, 4,7-7,6). Solamente un 3,7 % de los pacientes presentó un episodio de hipoxemia por debajo del 80 %. Todos los episodios de hipoxemia, excepto uno, resolvieron con maniobras simples, como la elevación del mentón. Durante el estudio no se presentaron complicaciones cardiopulmonares serias o muertes. Se identificaron, como factores de riesgo para la aparición de hipoxemia, una clasificación de riesgo de la Sociedad Americana de Anestesiólogos mayor a 3, y la realización del estudio endoscópico para dilatación esofágica o colocación de gastrostomía percutánea. Conclusiones: el uso de sedación con propofol administrado por no anestesiólogos en el estudio, no evidenció incremento en la aparición de complicaciones cardiopulmonares serias, ni en los episodios de hipoxemia.
Abstract Aim: Traditionally, sedation with propofol has been approved exclusively for use by anethesiologists, however, an extensive amount of published information has shown that sedation with propofol administered by non-anesthesiologists is safe and effective. The present study was conducted with the objective of evaluating the safety in the administration of propofol by gastroenterologists for the performance of procedures in digestive endoscopy. Methods: A retrospective study was conducted in which the records of 1135 patients who underwent digestive and therapeutic digestive endoscopies were reviewed in the period between January 2016 and March 2017. The patients were classified by age, gender, risk classification of the American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA), indication for endoscopy, and dose of propofol. The adverse effects associated with the use of propofol were recorded, such as episodes of transient hypoxemia, serious cardiopulmonary complications and death. Results: We included data from 1135 patients (56% were women) who underwent gastrointestinal endoscopy under sedation with propofol administered by gastroenterologist in a period of 14 months. The average dose used for propofol was 154 +/- 66 mg of propofol. According to the American Society of Anesthesiologists risk classification, 84% of the patients correspond to risk I and II, 14.8% to risk level III and 1.1% to risk level IV. The study carried out the most were gastroscopies (52.6%) and according to the indication, 79.6% corresponded to diagnostic studies, followed by 12.1% for upper gastrointestinal bleeding. Regarding the documented complications,70 episodes of hypoxemia were identified, corresponding to 6.2% of the sedations performed. (95% CI, 4.7-7.6). Only 3.7% of patients had an episode of hypoxemia below 80%. All episodes of hypoxemia, except one, resolved with simple maneuvers such as chin elevation. There were no serious cardiopulmonary complications or deaths during the study. We identified as risk factors for the appearance of hypoxemia a risk classification of the American Society of Anesthesiologists greater than 3 and performance of the endoscopic study for esophageal dilation or percutaneous gastrostomy placement. Conclusions: The use of sedation with propofol administered by non-anesthesiologists in the present study did not show an increase in the appearance of serious cardiopulmonary complications, or in episodes of hypoxemia.

Dexmedetomidine is a potent, highly selective α-2 adrenoceptor agonist, with sedative, analgesic, anxiolytic, sympatholytic, and opioid-sparing properties. Dexmedetomidine induces a unique sedative response, which shows an easy transition from sleep to wakefulness, thus allowing a patient to be cooperative and communicative when stimulated. Dexmedetomidine may produce less delirium than other sedatives or even prevent delirium. The analgesic effect of dexmedetomidine is not strong; however, it can be administered as a useful analgesic adjuvant. As an anesthetic adjuvant, dexmedetomidine decreases the need for opioids, inhalational anesthetics, and intravenous anesthetics. The sympatholytic effect of dexmedetomidine may provide stable hemodynamics during the perioperative period. Dexmedetomidine-induced cooperative sedation with minimal respiratory depression provides safe and acceptable conditions during neurosurgical procedures in awake patients and awake fiberoptic intubation. Despite the lack of pediatric labelling, dexmedetomidine has been widely studied for pediatric use in various applications. Most adverse events associated with dexmedetomidine occur during or shortly after a loading infusion. There are some case reports of dexmedetomidine-related cardiac arrest following severe bradycardia. Some extended applications of dexmedetomidine discussed in this review are promising, but still limited, and further research is required. The pharmacological properties and possible adverse effects of dexmedetomidine should be well understood by the anesthesiologist prior to use. Moreover, it is necessary to select patients carefully and to determine the appropriate dosage of dexmedetomidine to ensure patient safety.

OBJECTIVES: The capacity of polymorphonuclear cells (PMN) to phagocyte microorganisms is an important function to be preserved during surgical interventions. Therefore, the aim of this study was to determine the effect of propofol, fentanyl and remifentanil combination on Candida albicans engulfment by human PMN. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Twenty patients scheduled to undergo surgical interventions (ASA I-II) received propofol, fentanyl and remifentanil as intravenous anesthesia. PMNs were obtained before and after the surgical procedure and phagocytosis assay was performed using opsonized C. albicans. RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS: No differences between the values obtained before and after anesthesia treatment in the number of phagocytic PMN and the number of C. albicans engulfed were observed. These results suggest that the used anesthesic protocol does not alter one of the most important immune mechanisms.

Por lo tanto, el propósito de este estudio fue determinar el efecto de la combinación del propofol, el fentanil y el remifentanil en la ingestión de Candida albicans por parte de las CPN humanas. MATERIALES Y MÉTODOS: Veinte pacientes sujetos a intervenciones quirúrgicas (ASA I-II) recibieron propofol, fentanil y remifentanil como anestesia endovenosa. Los CPN se obtuvieron antes y después del procedimiento quirúrgico y el ensayo de fagocitosis fue realizando usando C. albicans opsonizada. RESULTADOS Y CONCLUSIONES: No se observaron diferencias significativas en los valores obtenidos antes y después del tratamiento anestésico tanto en el número de CPN fagocíticas como en el número de C. albicans dentro de las células. Estos hallazgos sugieren que el protocolo anestésico usado no altera uno de los mecanismos de defensa más importante del organismo.

A prospective longitudinal cohort study was performed in patients with breast cancer operated surgically with the use of total intravenous anesthesia in the provincial hospital Carlos Manuel de Céspedes de Bayamo, from the Cauto region during the period from January 1 from 2014 to December 31, 2016, with the aim of identifying the risk factors hypothetically related to the appearance of respiratory complications. It was established that the exposed cohort was constituted by 79 patients who developed complications during the study period and met the inclusion criteria. The diagnosis of respiratory complications was made during the entire surgical procedure and finished. The magnitude of the associations was estimated by calculating the relative risks (RR) of complications. The age of the patient equal to or greater than 65 years, and smoking were the surgical risk factors depending on the patient related to the onset of respiratory complications in breast cancer surgery with total intravenous anesthesia, not alcoholism. Anemia, obesity, low weight and recent respiratory tract infection were surgical risk factors dependent on associated diseases related to the appearance of respiratory complications. The ASA III-IV classification and the surgical time of more than three hours were surgical risk factors related to surgery related to the appearance of respiratory complications.
Se realizó un estudio longitudinal prospectivo de cohorte en pacientes con cáncer de mama intervenidos quirúrgicamente con el empleo de anestesia total intravenosa en el hospital provincial "Carlos Manuel de Céspedes de Bayamo, procedentes de la región del Cauto durante el período comprendido desde el 1ro de enero de 2014 hasta 31 de diciembre de 2016, con el objetivo de identificar los factores de riesgo hipotéticamente relacionados con la aparición de complicaciones respiratorias. Se estableció que la cohorte expuesta estuvo constituida por 79 pacientes que desarrollaron complicaciones en el período de estudio y cumplieron con los criterios de inclusión. La evaluación del diagnóstico de complicaciones respiratorias se realizó durante todo el procedimiento quirúrgico y terminado éste. La magnitud de las asociaciones se estimó mediante el cálculo de los riesgos relativos (RR) de complicaciones. La edad de la paciente igual o superior a 65 años, y el tabaquismo fueron los factores de riesgo quirúrgico en función del enfermo relacionados con la aparición de complicaciones respiratorias en cirugía oncológica de mama con anestesia total intravenosa, no así el alcoholismo. La anemia, la obesidad, bajo peso y la infección reciente del tracto respiratorio fueron los factores de riesgo quirúrgico dependiente de enfermedades asociadas relacionados con la aparición de complicaciones respiratorias. La clasificación ASA III-IV y un tiempo quirúrgico superior a tres horas se constituyeron en los factores de riesgo quirúrgico en función de la cirugía relacionados con la aparición de complicaciones respiratorias.
