IntroductionRegional anesthesia (RA) may be used in femoral shaft fracture surgery to decrease pain and opioid consumption. However, the impact of RA on inpatient and outpatient opioid demand in patients undergoing femoral shaft fracture surgery is largely unknown. The aim of this study was to evaluate the impact of RA on inpatient opioid consumption and outpatient opioid demand in patients undergoing femoral shaft fracture surgery.MethodsInpatient opioid consumption and outpatient opioid demand in all patients undergoing femoral shaft fracture surgery was recorded at a single, Level I trauma center from 7/2013 – 7/2018 (n=436). In addition to RA, baseline and treatment factors including age, sex, race, body mass index (BMI), smoking, chronic opioid use, American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) score, injury mechanism, additional injuries, open injury, and additional inpatient surgery were recorded. Unadjusted and adjusted multivariable models were used to evaluate the impact of RA on inpatient opioid consumption and outpatient opioid demand.ResultsAdjusted models demonstrated increases in inpatient opioid consumption in patients with RA (6.9 estimated OE's without RA vs 8.8 OE's with RA from 48-72 hours post-op, p<0.05) but no significant differences at other timepoints (10.3 estimated OE's without RA vs 9.2 OE's with RA from 0-24 hours post-op, 8.2 vs 8.8 from 24-48 hours post-op, p>0.05). Estimated cumulative outpatient opioid demand did not differ significantly in patients with RA (82.3 OE's without RA vs 94.8 with RA from discharge to two-weeks, 105.4 vs 116.3 OE's to 6-weeks, and 124.5 vs 137.9 OE's to 90-days, all p>0.05). Late opioid refills were significantly more common in patients with RA (1.57 odds at 2-weeks to 6-weeks, 1.69 odds at 6-weeks to 90-days, p<0.05)DiscussionIn femoral shaft fracture surgery, RA was not associated with decreased opioid demand after adjusting for baseline patient and treatment characteristics. These results provide a real-world estimate of the impact of RA on opioid demand in femoral shaft fracture surgery and encourage providers to seek alternative analgesic modalities.Level of evidenceLevel III, retrospective, therapeutic cohort study  相似文献

PURPOSE: Is to test the hypothesis that 70% xenon has a relevant opioid sparing effect compared to a minimum alveolar concentration (MAC)-equivalent combination of N(2)O and desflurane. METHODS: In this randomized, controlled study of 30 patients undergoing major orthopedic surgery, we determined the plasma alfentanil concentration required to suppress response to skin incision in 50% of patients (Cp(50)) anesthetized with xenon (70%) or a combination of N(2)O (70%) and desflurane (2%). A response was defined as movement, pressor response > 15 mmHg, heart rate > 90 beats x min(-1), autonomic reactions or a combination of these. At skin incision, alfentanil was administered at a randomly selected target plasma concentration thereafter the concentration was increased or decreased according to the patient's response. After skin incision, desflurane was adjusted to maintain the bispectral index below 60 and prevent responsiveness in both groups. RESULTS: The Cp(50) (+/- standard error) of alfentanil was 83 +/- 48ng x mL(-1) with xenon and 49 +/- 26 ng x mL(-1) with N(2)O/desflurane (P =0.451). During surgery five xenon and 15 N(2)O/desflurane patients were given desflurane at 1.0 +/- 0.5 volume % and 2.5 +/- 0.7 volume %. The total age adjusted MAC was 0.97 +/- 0.07 and 0.94 +/- 0.07 respectively (P = 0.217). The intraoperative plasma alfentanil concentrations were 95 +/- 80 and 93 +/- 60 ng x mL(-1) respectively (mean +/- SD; P = 0.451). Patients given xenon were slightly more bradycardic, whereas blood pressure was similar. CONCLUSION: Xenon compared to a MAC-equivalent combination of N(2)O and desflurane does not substantially reduce opioid requirement for orthopedic surgery. A small but clinically irrelevant difference cannot be excluded, however.  相似文献

PURPOSE: Upper respiratory infections (URI) presage perioperative respiratory complications, but thresholds to cancel surgery vary widely. We hypothesized that autonomically-mediated complications seen during emergence from anesthesia would be predicted by capnometry and reduced with preoperative bronchodilator administration. METHODS: Afebrile outpatient tertiary-care children (age two months to 18 yr, n = 109) without lung disease or findings, having non-cavitary, non-airway surgery for under three hours, were randomized to bronchodilator premedication vs placebo and had preoperative capnometry. After halothane via mask, laryngeal mask airway, or endotracheal tube, and regional anesthesia as appropriate, patients recovered breathing room air while cough, wheeze, stridor, laryngospasm, and cumulative desaturations were recorded for 15 min. RESULTS: In this specific population, there was no association between adverse events and either URI within six weeks (n = 76) or URI within seven days (n = 21). Neither albuterol nor ipratropium premedication decreased adverse events. Endotracheal intubation was associated with increased emergence desaturations and placebo nebulized saline increased emergence coughing. Neither anesthesiologists nor preoperative capnometry predicted adverse events. CONCLUSIONS: Adverse events were neither predicted nor prevented. In afebrile outpatient ASA I and II children with no lung disease or findings, having non-cavitary, non-airway surgery for under three hours, there was no association between either recent URI or active URI and desaturation, wheeze, cough, stridor, or laryngospasm causing desaturation (all P > 0.05). In this highly selected population of afebrile patients, the results suggest that anesthesiologists may proceed with surgery using specific criteria in the presence of a URI.  相似文献

PURPOSE: This study was undertaken because, although there is evidence that cyclooxygenase type 2 (COX)-2 inhibitors do not compromise platelets in healthy volunteers, many clinicians remain hesitant to administer them perioperatively without definitive evidence of intact platelet function during anesthesia and surgery. METHODS: In 20 patients scheduled for lower abdominal and pelvic surgery, 5 mL of blood were obtained for baseline platelet aggregometry. One hour prior to surgery, patients received an oral solution of either rofecoxib (ROF) 50 mg or placebo (PLAC) by randomized, double-blinded assignment. Approximately one hour after onset of anesthesia, an intraoperative blood sample was obtained. Baseline and postdrug samples were centrifuged to generate platelet-rich plasma, which was challenged with adenosine diphosphate (ADP) and arachidonic acid (AA). Aggregometry was performed with and without incubation with aspirin. The data in each subject were normalized to baseline aggregation in response to AA alone and ADP alone. Intergroup differences were assessed using paired t test; P < 0.05 was considered significant. RESULTS: Consistent with known effects of anesthesia on platelet function, both groups had approximately 25% intraoperative declines in aggregation in response to ADP (P = NS for PLAC vs ROF) and even greater declines in response to AA (P = NS for PLAC vs ROF). Aspirin eliminated aggregation in response to AA in both groups (P = NS), and it caused similar declines in PLAC and ROF groups during exposure to ADP (P = NS). CONCLUSION: This study provides strong evidence that ROF does not compromise platelet aggregation during anesthesia and surgery; nor does it interfere with the platelet inhibitory effect of aspirin.  相似文献

A growing multibillion dollar industry markets magnetic necklaces, bracelets, bands, insoles, back braces, mattresses, etc., for pain relief, although there is little evidence for their efficacy. We sought to evaluate the effect of magnetic therapy on pain intensity and opioid requirements in patients with postoperative pain. We designed a randomized, double-blind, controlled trial. One-hundred-sixty-five patients older than 12 yr of age were randomized to magnetic (n = 81) or sham therapy (n = 84) upon reporting moderate-to-severe pain in the postanesthesia care unit. Devices were placed over the surgical incision and left in place for 2 h. Patients rated their pain intensity on a 0-10 scale every 10 min and received incremental doses of morphine until pain intensity was < or =4 of 10. Pain intensity levels were similar in both groups. The magnet group had on average 0.04 U more pain intensity (95% confidence interval, -0.4 to 0.5) than the sham group. Opioid requirements also were similar in both groups. The active magnet group required 1.5 mg more morphine (95% confidence interval, -1.8 to 4.0) than the sham magnet group. Magnetic therapy lacks efficacy in controlling acute postoperative pain intensity levels or opioid requirements and should not be recommended for pain relief in this setting.  相似文献

Regional anesthesia is an attractive alternative for many ambulatory cases due to excellent postoperative pain relief and potential of speeding up the process from the OR to discharge. Regional anesthesia may be practised successfully in a busy ambulatory unit with a dedicated and simple regimen.  相似文献

To prevent hypercapnia, voluntary hyperventilation is recommended for patients with increased intracranial pressure before the induction of general anesthesia. We sought to determine whether this maneuver results in a lower PaCO2 than breathing 3 min of oxygen 100% by face mask (preoxygenation) after intubation. Thirty patients requiring general anesthesia were randomly assigned to breathe either 3 min of oxygen 100% by face mask (Group P) or 1 min of oxygen 100% followed by 2 min of voluntary hyperventilation with oxygen 100% (Group H). All patients received a standard rapid-sequence induction of anesthesia followed by a 90-s period of apnea. Patients were then tracheally intubated and mechanically ventilated. Five arterial blood gas samples were taken: with room air, after preoxygenation or hyperventilation, after 60 and 90 s of apnea, and after tracheal intubation. Voluntary hyperventilation decreased PaCO2 before rapid-sequence induction (hyperventilation, 30.0 +/- 3.5 mm Hg versus preoxygenation, 37.9 +/- 5.2 mm Hg; P < 0.0001), but after 60 s of apnea, both groups had similar PaCO2 (hyperventilation, 36.1 +/- 3.3 mm Hg versus preoxygenation, 35.6 +/- 3.4 mm Hg; P = 0.673), and no benefit was found after intubation (hyperventilation, 40.5 +/- 3.9 mm Hg versus preoxygenation, 41.4 +/- 2.7 mm Hg; P = 0.603). We conclude that voluntary hyperventilation before rapid-sequence induction does not provide protection against potential hypercapnia during intubation. IMPLICATIONS: Voluntary hyperventilation before anesthesia induction is recommended for patients with increased intracranial pressure to prevent hypercapnia. This randomized, prospective study demonstrated that this maneuver does not result in a lower postintubation PaCO2 than standard preoxygenation.  相似文献

Regional anesthesia in the head and neck area is a common and effective tool for the plastic surgeon. For short procedures, it offers the advantages of convenience and comfort to the patient. In many procedures, in addition, it offers advantages to the plastic surgeon over general anesthesia. A knowledge of anatomy of the course of the sensory nerves in the head and neck is essential to execute regional anesthesia. Some variability is always present. However, the most important factor in success is practice with a specific technique until it is mastered. No attempt was made in this article to provide an exhaustive reference to all acceptable forms of anesthesia. An attempt was made, however, to indicate one or two successful methods for each type of commonly used block so that when studied and practiced it can be expected to yield consistent results. Some repetition has been unavoidable because the intent has been to provide a relatively self-contained section for each block so that it may be as a reference without having to read the entire article. It is hoped that frequent practice will result in effective local and regional anesthesia in the head and neck area.  相似文献

To assess the analgesic efficacy of patient-controlled bupivacaine wound instillation, 50 patients undergoing major intraabdominal surgery were enrolled into this prospective, placebo-controlled, double-blinded study. In all cases, a standard general anesthetic was administered. On completion of surgery, two multihole 20-gauge epidural catheters were tunneled through the proximal and distal apices of the surgical wound and placed above the fascia such that the tips were at the margin of the first and second thirds of the surgical wound, respectively. Postoperatively, a patient-controlled analgesia (PCA) device was connected to the instillation system. Either bupivacaine 0.25% (Bupivacaine Group) or an equal volume of sterile water (Control Group) was administered. The PCA device was programmed to deliver 9.0 mL with a 60-min lockout interval and no basal infusion. During the first six postoperative hours, a coinvestigator administered "rescue" morphine (2 mg IV). Thereafter, meperidine 1 mg/kg IM was administered on patient request for additional analgesia. Instillation attempts and actual number of injections were similar between the groups. The mean number of pump infusions and the mean "rescue" opioid requirements during the 24-h study period were similar between the groups. The total "rescue" morphine administered during the first six postoperative hours was 16 +/- 17 mg vs 18 +/- 14 mg for the Bupivacaine and Control Groups, respectively. The total meperidine administered during this period was 1.6 +/- 1.4 mg/kg and 2 +/- 1.2 mg/kg for the Bupivacaine and Control Groups, respectively. Preoperatively, hourly for the first six postoperative hours, and on removal of the instillation catheter, patient-generated visual analog scales for pain were similar at rest, on coughing, and after leg raise. In conclusion, bupivacaine wound instillation via an electronic PCA device and a double-catheter system does not decrease postoperative opioid requirements after surgery performed through a midline incision. Implications: After major abdominal surgery performed through a 20-cm incision, repeated 0.25% bupivacaine wound instillation via an electronic patient-controlled analgesia device and a double-catheter system does not decrease postoperative pain or opioid requirements.  相似文献
