Effect of oral tramadol controlled release tablets premedication on efficacy of anesthesia with target-controlled infusion of propofol and remifentanil for painless colonoscopy in elderly patients / 中华麻醉学杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To evaluate the effect of oral tramadol controlled release tablets premedication on the efficacy of anesthesia with target-controlled infusion (TCI)of propofol and remifentanil for painless colonoscopy in elderly patients.Methods Sixty ASA Ⅰ or Ⅱ patients,aged≥ 65 yr,undergoing painless colonoscopy,were randomly divided into 2 groups ( n =30 each): control group (group C) and tramadol group(group T).In group T tramadol controlled-release tablet 100 mg was administered orally at 2 h before operation.Anesthesia was induced and maintained with TCI of propofol and remifentanil.SP,DP,HR and SpO2 were recorded before induction,at the time to reach the ileocecal valve and at the end of operation.The induction time,duration of operation,emergence time,recovery time,adverse events and the amount of propofol and remifentanil consumed were recorded.Results There was no significant difference in hemodynamics parameters,induction time,duration of operation,emergence time,recovery time,adverse events and the amount of propofol and remifentanil consumed between the two groups (P ＞ 0.05 ).Conclusion Oral tramadol controlled release tablets 100 mg premedication can be safely used in painless colonoscopy in elderly patients,however,tramadol can not enhance the efficacy of anesthesia with TCI of propofol and remifentanil.
