目的:观察异丙酚与安氟醚或七氟醚静吸复合麻醉对心肌酶的影响.方法:32例择期非心脏手术的全麻病人,随机分为4组(每组8例),分别给予安氟醚麻醉(A组)、七氟醚麻醉(B组)、异丙酚-安氟醚麻醉(C组)、异丙酚-七氟醚麻醉(D组).其中A、B组为对照组,C、D组为观察组.分别于麻醉前、麻醉诱导后2 h和术后3 d采集静脉血测血清磷酸肌酸激酶(CK)及其同功酶(CK-MB)、天门冬氨酸氨基转移酶(AST)、乳酸脱氢酶(LDH)、α-羟丁酸脱氢酶(HBDH).结果:麻醉诱导后2 h,A组CK、CK-MB值、LDH及HBDH值升高,与麻醉前比较差异有显著性(P<0.01或P<0.05);B组CK和CK-MB值升高,与麻醉前比较差异有显著性(P<0.05或P<0.01).术后3 d,A、B两组CK值升高,与麻醉前和麻醉诱导后2 h比较差异有显著性(P<0.01或P<0.05),AST值升高,与麻醉前比较差异有显著性(P<0.01或P<0.05).而且A、B两组相比较,A组的CK、LDH值升高幅度明显大于B组(P<0.05).C、D两组仅CK值在术后3 d与麻醉前比较差异均有显著性(P<0.01),但其升高幅度均明显低于A、B两组的同时值(P<0.01),其余各项心肌酶的变化在麻醉诱导后2 h及术后3 d差异均无显著性(P>0.05).与C组比较,A组在麻醉诱导后2 h CK、CK-MB、HBDH值升高(P<0.01),LDH值升高(P<0.05);在术后3 d CK值升高(P<0.01).与D组比较,B组CK值在麻醉诱导后2 h及术后3 d升高(P<0.01),CK-MB值在麻醉诱导后2 h升高(P<0.05).结论:安氟醚和七氟醚两者均能使心肌酶升高,但安氟醚所致的心肌酶升高幅度更明显;临床麻醉剂量的异丙酚能有效地防止安氟醚和七氟醚麻醉时心肌酶的升高.     

Comparison of trichloroethylene and enflurane as adjuncts to nitrous oxide and relaxant anaesthesia

Forty women who underwent gynaecological surgery were randomly allocated to receive trichloroethylene, enflurane, or enflurane plus fentanyl as adjuncts to nitrous oxide/relaxant anaesthesia with controlled ventilation. No serious cardiac dysrhythmias were seen in any group. Each patient was observed postoperatively for 4 hours by a nurse blind to the technique used, and questioned at 24 hours by a similarly blinded anaesthetist. Recovery after trichloroethylene was not significantly prolonged although postoperative analgesia by visual analogue was better, opiate analgesia was required less frequently and there was less nausea and vomiting than in either of the enflurane groups. We argue for the continued use of trichloroethylene by this technique, because it costs one hundred times less than enflurane and because of the potential morbidity of the postoperative opiate dosage required after enflurane.     

POSSIBLE PARTICIPATION OF NMDA AND GLYCINE RECEPTORS BUT NOT GABAA RECEPTORS IN ENFLURANE-INDUCED OPISTHOTONUS IN MICE

1. We previously reported that volatile anaesthetics produce incidences of a transient opisthotonus in mice, a sign of CNS stimulation. This study was performed to investigate mechanisms by which enflurane-induced opisthotonus (EIO) occurs. 2. The effects of pretreatment of N-methyl-d-aspartate (NMDA) antagonists dizocilpine (MK-801; DIZ) and ketamine (KET), GABA_A antagonists picrotoxin (PIC), pentylenetetrazol (PTZ) and glycine antagonist strychnine (STR) on the incidence of EIO were determined. Prior to exposure to 2.0% enflurane in air, male ddN mice were given intraperitoneal injections of 0.2 mL saline (control), 0.5–5.0 mg/kg DIZ, 20–80 mg/kg KET, 2.9 mg/kg PIC, 40.0 mg/kg PTZ and 0.75 mg/kg STR. After the injection, the behavioural state of the mice was observed for 20 min (the pre-enflurane period). During the exposure to enflurane the time for immobilization, that is, anaesthetic induction time (IT), and the incidence of EIO were measured. 3. Dizocilpine (1.0–5.0 mg/kg) and KET (80 mg/kg) significantly (P<0.01) reduced both the incidence of EIO and IT in a dose-dependent manner. During the pre-enflurane period DIZ produced incidences (5–40%) of transient seizures in a dose-dependent manner, while KET did not induce them at all. The two GABA_a antagonists had no detectable effect on the EIO. Strychnine significantly enhanced the EIO. These CNS stimulants resulted in a 3–10% incidence of transient seizure and/or opisthotonus during the pre-enflurane period, but there was no correlation between DIZ-induced seizure and EIO. 4. These results suggest that the EIO is mediated by the NMDA and the STR-sensitive glycine receptors, but not the GABA_A receptor. We speculate that DIZ acts on the NMDA-receptor and/or disrupts the balance between the inhibitory and the excitatory systems.     

Quantifying the interaction of vecuronium with enflurane using closed-loop feedback control of vecuronium infusion

The influence of different levels of enflurane anaesthesia on infusion requirements of vecuronium was studied in 40 adult surgical patients. Ninety percent neuromuscular block was maintained by computer controlled infusion of vecuronium. During the first 90 min study period all patients received fentanyl-nitrous oxide-oxygen (2:1) anaesthesia. For the following 90 min the patients were randomly assigned to receive enflurane at different end-tidal concentrations: group I, control, fentanyl-nitrous oxide anaesthesia; group II, enflurane 0.3%-nitrous oxide; group III, enflurane 0.6%-nitrous oxide; group IV, enflurane 0.9%-nitrous oxide. Every patient served as his/her own control and the changes of vecuronium infusion requirements were determined individually. When the administration of enflurane was started, vecuronium infusion requirements decreased progressively until 90 min. In group II the infusion rate lowered from 80±28 to 56±20 μg . kg^-1 . h ^-1, in group III from 61 ±29 to 34±17 μg . kg^-1 . h^-1 and in group IV from 65±20 to 30± 14 μg . kg^-1 . h^-1. In the control group the infusion rate decreased during the three hour study period from 69± 17 (first 90 min period) to 59± 16 μg . kg^-1 . h^-1 (second 90 min period). Enflurane reduces the dose requirements of vecuronium administered by continuous infusion in a dose- and time-dependent manner.     

The onset of ablation of the evoked adductor pollicis muscle twitch in children: a clinical perspective

The time to loss of the adductor pollicis muscle response to ulnar nerve stimulation at 1 Hz (twitch) after succinylcholine, 1.5 mg.kg-1 intravenously (IV), or vecuronium, 0.1 mg.kg-1 (IV), administration was assessed visually in 134 children, age 2-13 yr, during clinically determined, deep halothane, enflurane and isoflurane anaesthesia. The overall time to twitch ablation and duration of succinylcholine's action is in agreement with published times obtained under controlled experimental conditions; the onset time following vecuronium is comparable to those observed during a similar anaesthetic background measured under controlled experimental conditions. Twitch ablation after succinylcholine was achieved in half the time needed following vecuronium regardless of anaesthetic agent. Succinylcholine's and vecuronium's onset time as well as succinylcholine's duration is adequately assessed by the outlined, simple clinical means. The choice of inhalation agent does not affect the time to visible twitch ablation in a clinically relevant manner; nor does it make an appreciable difference, in clinical terms, in succinylcholine's duration of action.     

Uptake and biotransformation of sevof lurane in humans: A comparative study of sevof lurane with halothane, enflurane, and isoflurane

Study Objective: To compare the volatile anesthetic sevoflurane with halothane, enfurane, and isof urane on the uptake and biotransformation in humans.

Design: Prospective pharmacokinetic study of sevofurane administration in human subjects.

Setting: Inpatient surgery clinic at a university medical center.

Patients: Thirty-two Japanese patients, free of systemic diseases, undergoing minor elective surgery with endotracheal general anesthesia.

Interventions: The patients were assigned randomly to one of four groups: halothane, enflurane, isofurane, or sevofurane. One of the four volatile anesthetics being investigated [equivalent to 1.1 minimum alveolar concentration (MAC): halothane, 0.85%; enfurane, 1.85%; isofurane, 1.27%; and sevofurane, 1.88%; in inspired concentrations throughout the first hour of anesthesia] was administered for 60 minutes.

Measurements and Main Results: In all patients, serum and urinary fluoride concentrations were measured. The concentrations of all gases were measured separately with a mass spectrometer. The cumulative uptake of each anesthetic agent during a certain period was calculated as an integration of the uptake rate per minute. The results for one-hour inhalation of sevofurane (1.1 MAC) showed an uptake (corrected for body surface area and MAC) of 490 ml/m²/MAC and estimated degradation rate of 3.3%. For purposes of comparison, similar studies of halothane (uptake, 653 ml/m²/MAC; degradation rate 15.7%), enfurane (1150 ml/m²/MAC; 1.3%), and isofurane (439 ml/m²/MAC; 0.6%) were also conducted. Sevofurane had a peak serum inorganic fluoride concentration of 19.3 μmol/L, and no abnormality in hepatic or renal functions was observed in any of the subjects during the two weeks postoperatively.

Conclusions: Accurate determinations of uptake and degradation rate for sevoflurane and three other volatile anesthetics in Japanese patients were obtained. These findings have established that, despite its relatively large MAC *1.71%), sevoflurane has a small uptake due to its low solubility. However, the degradation rade was shown to be as high as 3.3%, resulting in a higher serum fluoride concentration than seen after administration of isoflurane, halothane, and (possibly) enflurane.

Airway irritation produced by volatile anaesthetics during brief inhalation: comparison of halothane,enflurane, isoflurane and sevoflurane

Eleven male volunteers were studied to compare the airway irritation produced by the four anaesthetic agents: halothane, enflurane, isoflurane and sevoflurane at two concentrations, equivalent to one and two MAC. Tidal volume, respiratory frequency and functional residual capacity changes induced by 15 sec inhalation of the anaesthetics were measured using respiratory inductive plethysmograph. Appearance of the cough reflex was also observed. The order of subjective airway irritation was evaluated by the volunteers. Inhalation of the anaesthetic agents induced a decrease in tidal volume, increase in respiratory frequency and decrease in functional residual capacity. Significant changes were considered to have occurred if tidal volume and respiratory frequency changed by more than 30% from the resting values for at least ten seconds, or if functional residual capacity changed by more than 30% of the value at resting tidal volume, for at least ten seconds. Each change was induced most frequently by isoflurane followed by enflurane, halothane and, least frequently, by sevoflurane. The orders of appearance of the cough reflex and of subjective airway irritation were similar. Sevoflurane did not elicit a cough reflex. It is concluded that sevoflurane was the least irritant anaesthetic and is considered to be the most suitable for inhalational induction of anaesthesia. Sept volontaires du sexe masculin font partie dune étude visant à comparer les ejfets irritants de quatre agents anesthésiques sur les voies respiratoires: l’halothane, l’enflurane, l’ isoflurane et le sévoflurane, à deux concentration qui équivalent soit à MAC 1, soit à MAC 2. On mesure les changements de volume courant, de fréquence respiratoire et de capacité résiduelle fonctionnelle à l’aide d’un pléthysmographie à induction. On note l’apparition du réflexe de toux. De plus, on évalue le degré subjectif d’irritation éprouvé par les sujets. L’inhalation d’agents anesthésiques cause une baisse du volume courant, une augmentation de la fréquence respiratoire et une diminution de la capacité résiduelle fonctionnelle. On considère significatifs les changements de volume courant et de fréquence respiratoire de plus de 30% des valeurs de repos pour au moins dix secondes, les changements de capacité résiduelle fonctionnelle de plus de 30% de sa valeur au volume courant de repos pour au moins dix secondes. Les changements sont initiés principalement par l’isoflurane, suivi par l’enflurane, l’halothane et moins fréquemment par le sévoflurane. L’ordre d’apparition du réflexe de toux et de l’impression subjective d’irritation des voies aériennes est identique. Le sévoflurane ne provoque pas de réflexe de toux. On conclut que le sévoflurane est le moins irritant des anesthesiques et qu’on peut le considerer comme celui qui convient le mieux à l’induction de l’anesthésie par inhalation.

A comparison of sevoflurane with halothane,enflurane, and isoflurane on bronchoconstriction caused by histamine

This study was conducted to assess the effect of sevoflurane on lung resistance and compliance, and its responsiveness to histamine. We studied eight dogs to compare the effect of sevoflurane, isoflurane, enflurane, and halothane on bronchoconstriction caused by histamine. Baseline values of pulmonary resistance (R_L) and dynamic pulmonary compliance (C_dyn) were measured prior to administration of histamine. Histamine (2, 4, and 8 μg · kg⁻¹) were administered iv, and the values of R_L and C_dyn at the time of peak effect were recorded. Under 1 or 2 MAC anaesthesia, sevoflurane as well as the other three anaesthetics had no bronchoactive effects. The four anaesthetics, including sevoflurane, demonstrated inhibitory effect on increases in R_L and decreases in C_dyn caused by histamine. At 1 MAC anaesthesia, % changes in R_L caused by 2, 4, or 8 μg · kg⁻¹ of histamine were 38 ± 11, 85 ± 21, or 132 ± 24% (mean ± SE) for halothane, and 65 ± 11, 132 ± 15, or 172 ± 19% for sevoflurane, respectively. Sevoflurane was less effective than halothane in preventing increases in R_L. In preventing decreases in C_dyn, sevoflurane was less effective than halothane only at 8 μg · kg⁻¹ of histamine under 1 and 2 MAC anaesthesia. There was no difference in attenuating effect on changes in R_L and C_dyn between sevoflurane and isoflurane or enflurane. We concluded that sevoflurane was less potent than halothane in attenuating changes in R_L and C_dyn in response to iv histamine. Cette étude a été réalisée dans le but d’évaluer les effets du sévoflurane sur la résistance et la compliance pulmonaires en réponse à l’histamine. Les effets du sévoflurane, de l’isoflurane, de l’enflurane et de l’halothane sur la bronchoconstriction induite par l’histamine sont comparés sur huit chiens. Avant l’administration d’histamine, on mesure les valeurs initiales de la résistance (R_L) et de la compliance dynamique (C_dyn) pulmonaires. L’histamine (2, 4, 8 μg · kg⁻¹) est administrée par la voie veineuse et les valeurs maximales de la R_L et de la C_dyn sont enregistrées. Les quatre anesthésiques, dont le sévoflurane inhibent l’augmentation de la R_L et la diminution de la C_dyn provoquées par l’histamine. A MAC 1 d’anesthésie, les pourcentages de changement de R_L produits par 2, 4, ou 8 μg · kg⁻¹ d’histamine sont respectivement de 38 ± 11, 85 ± 21, ou 132 ± 24% (moyenne + SD) pour l’halothane, et de 65 ± 11, 132 ± 15, ou 172 ± 19% pour le sévoflurane. Le sévoflurane est moins efficace que l’halothane pour prévenir les augmentations de R_L. Le sévoflurane est moins efficace pour prevenir la diminution de C_dyn mais seulement à 8 μg · kg⁻¹ d’histamine sous anesthésie à MAC 1 et 2. Le sévoflurane, l’halothane et l’isoflurane ne sont pas de différents pour amortir les changements de R_L et C_dyn. Nous concluons que le sévoflurane est moins puissant que l’halothane pour diminuer la réponse à l’histamine de la R_L et de la C_dyn.
