RESUMO
Objective:To investigate the effect of dexmedetomidine combined with chloroprocaine on epidural anesthesia for cesarean section.Methods:A total of 133 women who underwent epidural anesthesia for cesarean section at the Department of Anesthesiology, Jinhua People's Hospital between January 2020 and December 2022 were included in this prospective case-control study. These women were divided into a ropivacaine group ( n = 66) and a chloroprocaine group ( n = 67) using a random number table method. The ropivacaine group received epidural anesthesia with dexmedetomidine combined with ropivacaine, while the chloroprocaine group received epidural anesthesia with dexmedetomidine combined with chloroprocaine. The anesthesia effect (anesthesia onset time, anesthesia duration, peak effect time), changes in blood pressure (systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure), adverse reactions (shivering, nausea and vomiting, urinary retention, skin itching, numbness of lower limbs), and satisfaction with muscle relaxation were observed in the two groups. Results:The anesthesia onset time, anesthesia duration, and peak effect time in the chloroprocaine group were (6.91 ± 1.54) minutes, (61.54 ± 5.31) minutes, and (11.79 ± 4.12) minutes, respectively, which were significantly shorter than those in the ropivacaine group [(9.65 ± 1.92) minutes, (83.57 ± 6.69) minutes, (18.32 ± 4.81) minutes, t = 9.08, 21.05, 8.41, all P < 0.001). The systolic and diastolic blood pressure increased in both groups after 10 minutes of anesthesia and at the end of the procedure; however, the increments observed in the chloroprocaine group were relatively smaller. There were significant differences in systolic and diastolic blood pressure, measured at 10 minutes of anesthesia and at the end of the procedure, between the two groups ( F = 7.36, P < 0.001; F = 5.12, P = 0.001). There were significant differences in systolic and diastolic blood pressure between different time points ( F = 10.03, P < 0.001; F = 6.72, P < 0.001). The group-by-time interaction effect on systolic and diastolic blood pressure was also highly significant ( F = 9.83, P < 0.001; F = 8.01, P < 0.001). The chloroprocaine group exhibited a significantly lower incidence of adverse reactions compared with the ropivacaine group [4.48% (3/67) vs. 15.15% (10/66), χ2 = 4.29, P < 0.05). Additionally, the chloroprocaine group had a significantly higher satisfaction rate with muscle relaxation compared with the ropivacaine group [94.03% (63/66) vs. 81.82% (54/66), Z = 5.73, P < 0.05]. Conclusion:The combination of dexmedetomidine and chloroprocaine offers remarkable benefits in epidural anesthesia for cesarean sections. This combined approach not only enhances epidural anesthesia but also stabilizes the blood pressure of puerperants, reduces adverse reactions, and provides exceptional muscle relaxation. It deserves consideration for clinical application.
RESUMO
Objective:To retrospectively review the efficacy of enhanced epidural anesthesia in the patients undergoing cesarean section.Methods:The data from patients who underwent cesarean section in our hospital from August 2008 to December 2021 were retrospectively collected. The method of epidural anesthesia, drug dosage, onset time, blocking level, anesthesia effect, remedial medication, and complications related to the method were recorded. The main points of enhanced epidural anesthesia included: ① test negative pressure by rotating the epidural puncture needle in situ to determine the position of the needle tip; ② catheterization after administering local anesthetic through epidural puncture needle to assess the clinical application of this technique. A questionnaire survey was conducted in 134 anesthesiologists with qualifications for epidural procedures. The questionnaire addressed whether to perform routine needle rotation during epidural procedures, direction of needle rotation, and the percentage of the dosage of local anesthetic administered through puncture needle. Results:A total of 10 054 patients received epidural anesthesia (10 016 cases) and switched to general anesthesia because of poor epidural effect or intraoperative emergencies (38 cases) were enrolled. The consumption of local anesthetics for epidural anesthesia was 18 (15, 20) ml.There were 7 287 cases with block plane records, of which the ratio of the block level reached T 6-8 was 86.84%. The time from the beginning of anesthesia to skin incision was 25 (20, 30) min. Sixteen patients (0.159%) switched to general anesthesia because of poor epidural effect.Among 10 016 patients underwent epidural anesthesia, 925 patients (9.235%) received intravenous adjunctive drugs.No patients experienced total spinal anesthesia, 25 patients (0.248%) had epidural perforation due to puncture or needle rotation, and 4 cases (0.039%) local anesthetic intoxication, 3 cases (0.030%) postoperative nerve injury, and 142 patients (1.412%) requiring intervention with vasoactive drugs due to hemodynamic instability within 30 min after epidural administration. Questionnaire survey: The proportion of anesthesiologists rotating epidural puncture needles was 85.1%, and the proportion of anesthesiologists using epidural puncture needles to inject local anesthesia drugs with a dose greater than 50% of the total dose before catheterization was 84.2%. Conclusions:Enhanced epidural anesthesia can provide effective anesthesia for the patients undergoing cesarean section without increasing the risk of complications related to epidural procedures.
RESUMO
Objective:To investigate the clinical efficacy of combined spinal and epidural anesthesia with isobaric bupivacaine in older adult patients undergoing artificial femoral head replacement.Methods:The clinical data of 50 older adult patients who underwent artificial femoral head replacement in Zhuji Third People's Hospital between January 2016 and January 2020 were retrospectively analyzed. The patients were divided into a control group ( n = 22) and a combined anesthesia group ( n = 28) according to different anesthesia methods. The control group was subjected to epidural anesthesia with bupivacaine. The combined anesthesia group underwent combined spinal and epidural anesthesia with isobaric bupivacaine. The excellent and good rate of anesthesia as well as heart rate and mean arterial pressure measured before and 10 minutes after anesthesia, at 1 hour of surgery and at the end of surgery were compared between the two groups. Time to anesthesia onset and time to block completion were recorded in each group. Results:The excellent and good rate of clinical efficacy in the combined anesthesia group was significantly higher than that in the control group [85.71% (24/28) vs. 59.09% (13/22), χ2 = 4.54, P < 0.05]. There were no significant differences in heart rate and mean arterial pressure between the two groups before and 10 minutes after anesthesia, at 1 hour of surgery and at the end of surgery ( t = 0.83, 0.60, 1.13, 1.21; 0.98, 0.60, 0.85, 0.88, P > 0.05). The time to anesthesia onset and the time to block completion in the combined anesthesia group were shorter than those in the control group ( t = 4.99, 2.29, both P < 0.05). Conclusion:Combined spinal and epidural anesthesia with isobaric bupivacaine can increase the excellent and good rate of anesthesia effects and has no obvious effect on hemodynamics in patients undergoing artificial femoral head replacement. Combined spinal and epidural anesthesia takes a shorter time to anesthesia onset and a shorter time to block completion than spinal or epidural anesthesia.
RESUMO
Objective:To investigate the effects of thoracic segment epidural anesthesia on inflammatory factors in patients undergoing lung cancer surgery.Methods:The clinical data of 136 patients who underwent lung cancer surgery in the Second People's Hospital of Liaocheng from June 2020 to May 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. According to anesthesia methods, these patients were divided into an observation group ( n = 89) and a control group ( n = 47). The observation group was given thoracic segment epidural anesthesia, while the control group was given remifentanil infusion anesthesia. The tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin-6 (IL-6), and interleukin-10 (IL-10) levels in the epithelial lining fluid collected from the non-dependent lung, the plasma levels of TNF-α, IL-6, and malondialdehyde, arterial partial pressure of oxygen/inhaled oxygen fraction, the incidence of complications, the incidence of re-operations, numeric rating scale score, and the length of hospital stay were compared between the two groups. The effects of different anesthesia methods on lung cancer surgery were evaluated. Results:In each group, TNF-α, IL-6, and IL-10 levels in the epithelial lining fluid were significantly increased 30 minutes after termination of one-lung ventilation (T2) compared with those measured before one-lung ventilation (T1) ( t = 7.71, 77.10, 7.59, 3.41, 57.51, 5.74, all P < 0.05). In the observation group, TNF- α [(1.59 ± 0.53) ng/L, (1.89 ± 0.64) ng/L] measured at T1 and T2, IL-6 [(2.96 ± 0.82) ng/L] and IL-10 [(1.99 ± 0.53) ng/L] measured at T1 were significantly higher compared with those measured at the corresponding time points in the control group ( t = 10.45, 2.59, 2.00, 7.19, all P < 0.05). In the observation group, IL-6 measured at T2 [(38.91 ± 5.84) ng/L] was significantly lower than that in the control group ( t = 33.25, P < 0.001), and IL-10 measured at T2 [(2.51 ± 0.67) ng/L] was slightly, but not significantly higher than that in the control group ( P > 0.05). There was no significant difference in the plasma level of TNF- α measured at T1 and T2 between the two groups (both P > 0.05). Plasma levels of IL-6 in the two groups [(42.98 ± 5.29) ng/L, (27.93 ± 4.17) ng/L] measured at T2 were significantly increased compared with those measured at T1 ( t = 54.14, 61.06, both P < 0.001). In the observation group, TNF-α measured at T2 [(1.60 ± 0.56) ng/L] and IL-6 measured at T1 and T2 [(0.92 ± 0.16) ng/L, (27.93 ± 4.17) ng/L] were significantly lower compared with the control group ( t = 3.39, 6.96, 18.20, all P < 0.05). There were no significant differences in plasma level of malondialdehyde, arterial partial pressure of oxygen/inhaled oxygen fraction, numeric rating scale score, the incidence of complications, the incidence of re-operation, and the length of hospital stay between the two groups (all P > 0.05). Conclusion:Thoracic segment epidural anesthesia can reduce the local inflammatory response of the lung during lung cancer surgery.
RESUMO
Abstract Background Regional anesthesia has been increasingly used. Despite its low number of complications, they are associated with relevant morbidity. This study aims to evaluate the incidence of complications after neuraxial block and peripheral nerve block. Methods A retrospective cohort study was conducted, and data related to patients submitted to neuraxial block and peripheral nerve block at a tertiary university hospital from January 1, 2011 to December 31, 2017 were analyzed. Results From 10,838 patients referred to Acute Pain Unit, 1093(10.1%) had side effects or complications: 1039 (11.4%) submitted to neuraxial block and 54 (5.2%) to peripheral nerve block. The most common side effects after neuraxial block were sensory (48.5%) or motor deficits (11.8%), nausea or vomiting (17.5%) and pruritus (8.0%); The most common complications: 3 (0.03%) subcutaneous cell tissue hematoma, 3 (0.03%) epidural abscesses and 1 (0.01%) arachnoiditis. 204 of these patients presented sensory or motor deficits at hospital discharge and needed follow-up. Permanent peripheral nerve injury after neuraxial block had an incidence of 7.7:10,000 (0.08%). The most common side effects after peripheral nerve block were sensory deficits (52%) and 21 patients maintained follow-up due to symptoms persistence after hospital discharge. Conclusion Although we found similar incidences of side effects or even lower than those described, major complications after neuraxial block had a higher incidence, particularly epidural abscesses. Despite this, other serious complications, such as spinal hematoma and permanent peripheral nerve injury, are still rare.

Objective:To evaluate the effect of general anesthesia combined with epidural block on postoperative sleep in the frail elderly patients undergoing gastrointestinal tumor surgery.Methods:Ninety frail patients of either sex, aged 65-80 yr, with body mass index of 18-30 kg/m 2, of American Society of Anesthesiology physical status Ⅱ-Ⅲ, scheduled for elective open gastrointestinal tumor surgery (FRAIL score >2), were divided into 2 groups ( n=45 each) using a random number table method: general anesthesia group (GA group) and general anesthesia combined with epidural block group (GE group). Combined intravenous-inhalational anesthesia was carried out in group GA.Epidural block was performed before induction of anesthesia, and the method of general anesthesia was the same as that described in group GA, and the consumption of propofol and remifentanil was adjusted according to the BIS value, sweat and tears, heart rate and blood pressure during operation in group GE.Postoperative intravenous analgesia was performed to maintain VAS score ≤3.Wearable devices were used to monitor sleep parameters at 1 day before surgery and 1, 3 and 7 days after surgery.Sleep quality was assessed using Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index and Quality of Recovery-15 questionnaire at 1 day before surgery and 1, 3, 7 and 30 days after surgery.The intraoperative consumption of propofol, sufentanil and remifentanil were recorded.The requirement for postoperative rescue analgesia and total pressing times of patient-controlled analgesia (PCA) within 48 h after surgery were recorded.Serum C-reactive protein concentrations were determined by immunoturbidimetry at 1 day before surgery and 1 day after surgery, and the adverse reactions at 7 days after surgery were recorded. Results:Compared with group GA, the consumption of remifentanil was significantly reduced, the total sleep score, deep sleep ratio, rapid eye movement ratio and Quality of Recovery-15 score were increased, the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index was decreased, and the incidence of postoperative nausea and vomiting was decreased on 1st and 3rd days after operation ( P<0.05), and no significant change was found in the serum C-reactive protein concentration and postoperative requirement for rescue analgesia, and total pressing times of PCA in group GE ( P>0.05). Conclusions:General anesthesia combined with epidural block can improve short-term sleep quality and recovery quality after gastrointestinal tumor surgery in elderly frail patients.
RESUMO
Objective:To compare the perioperative plasma high-mobility group box 1 protein (HMGB1) concentrations in the patients undergoing laparoscopic radical resection of cervical cancer using different anesthetic regimens.Methods:Sixty-eight American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status Ⅰor Ⅱ patients, aged 34-68 yr, with body mass index of 19-24 kg/m 2, undergoing elective laparoscopic radical resection of cervical cancer, were divided into 2 groups ( n=34 each) using a random number table method: general anesthesia group (G group) and general anesthesia combined with epidural anesthesia group (GE group). In group G, anesthesia was induced with midazolam, etomidate and cisatracurium and maintained with remifentanil, propofol and cisatracurium.In group GE, an epidural catheter was placed at L 1, 2 interspace before induction of anesthesia, general anesthesia was performed after the anesthesia level reached T 6, and the method was similar to those previously described in group G. Patient-controlled intravenous analgesia was used after operation to maintain visual analog scale score ≤ 3 points.Peripheral venous blood samples were collected at 10 min before anesthesia (T 0), at the end of operation, and at 1, 24 and 48 h after operation (T 1-4) for determination of plasma concentrations of HMGB1, interferon-gamma (IFN-γ) and interleukin-4 (IL-4) (by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay) levels of T lymphocyte subsets CD3 + , CD4 + and CD8 + and CD4 + /CD8 + ratio (by flow cytometry). Results:Compared with group G, the plasma concentrations of IFN-γ and IL-4 were significantly decreased at T 2, 4, the plasma concentration of HMGB1 was decreased at T 2-4, and the levels of CD3 + at T 2-4, CD4 + at T 2 and CD8 + at T 2, 3 and CD4 + /CD8 + ratio were increased in group GE ( P<0.05). Conclusion:The plasma HMGB1 concentration is lower, which has less impact on immune function of the patients undergoing laparoscopic radical resection of cervical cancer with the combination of general anesthesia and epidural anesthesia than that with general anesthesia alone.

RESUMO
Abstract Purpose To develop a 3D anatomical model for teaching canine epidural anesthesia (3DMEA) and to assess its efficacy for teaching and learning prior to the use of live animals. Methods The creation of 3DMEA was based on 3D optical scanning and 3D printing of canine bone pieces of the fifth to the seventh lumbar vertebrae, sacrum and pelvis. A total of 20 male dogs were scheduled for castration. 20 veterinary students watched a video showing epidural anesthesia in dogs before the clinical attempt and were assigned to control or 3DMEA groups. Students in the 3DMEA group trained in the model after the video. For the clinical trial, the epidural procedure was performed by students under the veterinary supervision. When observed the absence of response to nociceptive stimuli, the epidural was considered successful. Then, all students answered a questionnaire evaluating the main difficulty founded in the technique and its degree of difficulty. Results The 3DMEA group reported a lower degree of difficulty to perform the epidural anesthesia technique when compared with the control group (p=0.0037). The 3DMEA reproduced the anatomical structures, allowing the perception of the distance of needle in relation to the iliac prominences during epidural anesthesia. Its mobility allowed simulation of the animal in standing position and sternal recumbency. Conclusion The use of 3DMEA demonstrated greater efficacy in the execution of the technique, being effective in the teaching and learning process before the epidural anesthesia in live animals.

Objective To investigate the influence of epidural analgesia on labor duration under the new partogram recommendations using quantile regression.Methods In this study,we recruited 300 nulliparous women at full term who were hospitalized in Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology,Tongji Medical College,Huazhong University of Science and Technology from May to September,2018.The participants who were willing to receive epidural analgesia during labor were assigned to the epidural group (n=150),and those who were not to the control group (n=150).Labor duration and delivery outcomes were analyzed by Student's t test,Mann-Whitney U test,Chi-square test and Fisher's exact test.Quantile regression models were also used to investigate the effect of epidural analgesia on labor duration.Results The median durations of first-and second-stage labor in the epidural group were 600(400-840) and 66(45-98) min,respectively,which were significantly longer than those of the control group [420(320-610) and 52(33-87) min] (Z=-4.273,P<0.001;Z=-3.210,P=0.001).Quantile regression analysis showed that,for the first stage of labor,epidural analgesia was associated with labor prolongation,and had significant effects on all the percentiles (all P<0.05).The regression coefficients increased (95.630-285.000) correspondingly as the percentiles of the labor duration (from 10th to 90th percentiles) increased.For the second stage of labor,epidural analgesia showed a significant impact on prolongation only between the 25th and 75th percentiles (coefficients:10.000~18.143;all P<0.05).Although the epidural group had a significant higher episiotomy rate [46.8%(65/139) vs 33.3%(48/144),x2=5.318,P=0.021],more times of urine catheterization during labor [1(0-1) vs 0(0-1),Z=-0.974,P=0.001]and higher rate of oxytocin administration during labor [48.7%(73/150) vs 30.0%(45/150),x2=10.952,P=0.001],when compared with the control group,there was no significant difference in cesarean section rate,assisted vaginal delivery rate and neonatal outcomes between the two groups (all P>0.05).Conclusions Epidural analgesia may associated with the prolongation of the first and second stage of labor,especially with the first stage of labor,but has no adverse effects on maternal and neonatal outcomes.
RESUMO
Objective To observe the analgesic and sedative effect of epidural dexmedetomidine injection in patients undergoing transurethral resection of prostate (TURP) and its effect on postoperative cognitive function. Methods A total of 60 patients undergoing TURP under combined spinal-epidural anesthesia (CSEA) were randomly divided into dexmedetomidine group and normal saline group. Patients in the dexmedetomidine group were given 0.1 μg/kg of dexmedetomidine injection after epidural anesthesia, and 0.9 μg/kg of dexmedetomidine was added into epidural analgesia pump after operation;patients in the normal saline group were given the same dose of normal saline. The vital signs, visual analogue scale (VAS) and Ramsay sedation score of patients in the two groups at different time points [before intervention (T0), after intervention for 15 min (T1), after intervention for 30 min (T2), after intervention for 45 min (T3), after intervention for 60 min (T4), after surgery for 12 h (T5), after surgery for 36 h (T6)] were recorded. The mini mental state examination (MMSE) of patients in the two groups 1 d before operation and 3 d after operation were recorded. Results Compared with normal saline group, the VAS scores of patients in dexmedetomidine group were significantly lower at T1-T6 (P<0.05), and the Ramsay scores were significantly higher (P<0.05). There was no significant difference of MMSE total score [25.00(23.50, 27.50) scores] in the patients of dexmedetomidine group 3 d after operation but the memory ability score [4.00(3.00, 5.00) scores] was significantly decreased (P<0.05), and the language ability score [9.00(8.00, 9.00) scores] was significantly increased (P < 0.05). There was no significant difference in MMSE score between the two groups in comparison with that 1 d before operation. Conclusions Epidural dexmedetomidine injection (1 μg/kg) enhancesd the analgesic effect of ropivacaine and producesd sedative effect. Although there was is no significant effect on the overall cognitive function, it might have some effect on memory function.
RESUMO
Objective To compare the anesthetic effects of subarachnoid anesthesia(SA)and epidural anesthesia(EA)for the procedure for prolapse and hemorrhoids(PPH)in elderly patients with benign anorectal diseases.Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted in 60 patients with benign anorectal diseases admitted to Peking University Third Hospital from March to August 2018 and undergoing PPH.According to anesthesia methods,patients were divided into the SA group and the EA group (n=30 each).The level of sensory block was tested by acupuncture,and the degree of motor block was assessed by revised Bromage score.The anesthesia effect,operation time,blood loss,adverse events and hospitalization time were compared between the two groups.Results The highest level of sensory block was similar between the two groups without significant difference(P >0.05).The median onset time of sensory block was longer in the EA group [270.0 s(interquartile range,66.3 s)] than in the SA group [25.5 s(interquartile range,14.3 s)].The revised Bromage score was lower in the EA group than in the SA group [1.0(interquartile range,1.0)vs.2.0 (interquartile range,1.0),Z =6.657,-1.685,both P =0.000].The risks of hypotension,nausea and vomiting,and urinary retention were lower in the EA group than in the SA group (x2 =6.405,4.286 and 4.403,P=0.011,0.038 and 0.044).There were no significant differences in anesthetic effect,operation time,blood loss and hospitalization time between the two groups (all P > 0.05).Conclusions EA can provide a perfect anesthesia and analgesic effect for elderly patients receiving PPH,with the advantages of rapid recovery of limb movement and low adverse events.As a substitute for SA,EA is a suitable anesthesia method for promoting the enhanced recovery after surgery(ERAS) in patients with benign anorectal diseases.

RESUMO
Objective@#To observe the clinical effect of ultrasound-guided thoracic paravertebral nerve block on anesthesia and postoperative analgesia in patients undergoing radical resection of lung cancer.@*Methods@#From August 2016 to August 2018, 88 patients who had undergone selective radical resection of lung cancer in the Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital of Jinhua were divided into study group and control group according to random number table, with 44 cases in each group.The patients in the control group were given epidural block combined with general anesthesia.The patients in the study group were given ultrasound-guided thoracic paravertebral nerve block combined with general anesthesia.The hemodynamic parameters such as SpO2, MAP and HR were monitored before and after anesthesia(T0), after blocking anesthesia administration(T1), after induction and extubation(T2), after skin incision(T3) and extubation(T4). The serum levels of NE, Cro, hs-CRP and TNF-α were measured before and after operation.The VAS scores were scored at different time points after operation.The adverse reactions after anesthesia were observed.@*Results@#The values of MAP and HR at each time point of T1-T4 in the control group were significantly lower than those at T0(t=5.067-14.839, all P<0.05), while there were no statistically significant differences in the study group between the values of MAP and HR at each time point of T1-T4 and those at T0(t=0.241-0.619, all P>0.05). At 6h, 12h, 24h and 48h after operation, the levels of serum NE, Cro, hs-CRP and TNF-α in both two groups were significantly higher than those before operation(t=16.289-38.520, all P<0.05), and the levels of serum NE, Cro, hs-CRP and TNF-α in the study group were significantly lower than those in the control group at all time points after operation(t=4.925-12.162, all P<0.05). The VAS scores of resting state and cough state at different time points in the study group were significantly lower than those in the control group(t=6.593-8.424, all P<0.05). The overall incidence of adverse reactions in the study group[18.18%(8/44)] was significantly lower than that in the control group[38.64%(17/44)](χ2=4.526, P=0.033).@*Conclusion@#Compared with epidural anesthesia, ultrasound-guided thoracic paravertebral nerve block combined with general anesthesia can effectively maintain the stability of blood flow, reduce the level of post-operative stress and inflammatory reaction, alleviate the degree of post-operative pain response, and prevent the occurrence of adverse reactions after anesthesia, which is worthy of clinical application.
