RESUMO
Evidence suggests that surgical procedures can effect the central nervous system and lead to changes in mood and behavior, rarely understood about the role of acute inflammation in promoting acute anxiety postoperatively. This study was designed to explore the possible mechanism of dexmedetomidine (DEX, a2-adrenergic receptor agonist) for reducing acute postoperative anxiety, which may be related to the activation of nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) and downstream signal pathway in the hippocampus. Experiments were conducted with rat, the elevated plus-maze and open field test were performed to evaluate anxiety-like behavior. Inhibit DEX with Atipamezole (AT, α2-adrenergic receptor antagonist) and inhibit NF-κB with Pyrrolidinedithiocarbamate (PDTC, inhibit phosphorylation of IκB, prevent the activation of NF-κB), the level of interleukin-6 (IL-6), IL-1ß, IL-10 and Tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α); the nuclear translocation of NF-κB in the hippocampus and anxiety-like behavior were measured. Rats exhibited anxiety-like behavior at 6h and 12h after surgery. Preoperative administration of DEX significantly alleviated postoperative anxiety-like behavior. DEX premedication inhibited the nuclear translocation of NF-κB alleviate acute postoperative anxiety. These findings are the first to show that acute postoperative anxiety may be related to NF-κB nuclear translocation in the hippocampus in rats, which can be alleviated by DEX premedication.

BACKGROUND: Use of an LMA ProSeal™ laryngeal mask airway (P-LMA; Teleflex) with no neuromuscular block is considered a safe alternative to tracheal intubation in short-duration paediatric laparoscopic surgery. However, few studies have evaluated surgical conditions of short-duration paediatric laparoscopic surgery using this anaesthetic technique. We assessed surgical conditions for paediatric laparoscopic inguinal hernia repair using P-LMA with and without neuromuscular block. METHODS: Sixty-six patients undergoing laparoscopic inguinal hernia repair were randomised to receive a neuromuscular block (train-of-four 1-2 twitches) using rocuronium or no neuromuscular block with the P-LMA. All operations were performed by the same surgeon who determined the surgical conditions using the Leiden-surgical rating scale (L-SRS). Secondary outcomes included perioperative data, haemodynamics, and adverse events. RESULTS: Neuromuscular block improved surgical conditions compared with no neuromuscular block: mean (standard deviation) L-SRS 4.1 (0.5) vs 3.5 (0.6), respectively (P<0.0001). Mean rocuronium dose in the neuromuscular block group was 12.7 (4.4-29.7) mg or 0.7 (0.6-0.8) mg kg-1. The insufflation Ppeak was higher in the no neuromuscular block group than in the neuromuscular block group: mean (standard deviation) Ppeak 17.9 (1.8) cm H2O vs 16.2 (1.9) cm H2O, respectively (P=0.0004). Fifteen children (45.5%) in the no neuromuscular block group had adverse events during the surgery and anaesthesia vs four children (12.1%) in the neuromuscular block group (P=0.006). CONCLUSIONS: Neuromuscular block significantly improved surgical conditions and reduced the incidence of adverse events during surgery and anaesthesia when an LMA Proseal™ was used in short-duration paediatric laparoscopic surgery.
