Methods: Sixteen pigs were assigned randomly to control and shock groups. The shock group was bled using an isobaric hemorrhage model. Remifentanil 10 [mu]g [middle dot] kg-1 [middle dot] min-1 was infused for 10 min to both groups. Arterial samples were collected for remifentanil concentration assay. Pharmacokinetic parameters were estimated using a three-compartment model. The electroencephalogram spectral edge was used as a measure of drug effect. The pharmacodynamics were characterized using a sigmoid inhibitory maximal effect model.
Results: Remifentanil blood levels were higher in the shocked group. The central clearance was slower and the central compartment was smaller in shocked animals. No difference between groups was observed in the magnitude or time course of the remifentanil-induced decrease in spectral edge. 相似文献
Methods: Thirty young healthy males were administered double-blind remifentanil or alfentanil intravenously for 180 min using a computer-assisted continuous infusion device. Depression of ventilation was assessed by the minute ventilatory response to 7.5% CO2 administered via a "bag in the box" system. The target concentration of the study drug was adjusted to obtain 40-70% depression of baseline minute ventilation. Multiple blood samples were obtained during and following the infusion. The concentration-effect relationship of each drug was modeled, and the concentration needed to provide a 50% depression of ventilation (EC50) was determined.
Results: Only 11 subjects in each drug group completed the study; however, there were sufficient data in 28 volunteers to model their EC50 values. The EC50 (mean and 95% confidence interval) for depression of minute ventilation with remifentanil was 1.17 (0.85-1.49) ng/ml and the EC (50) for alfentanil was 49.4 (32.4-66.5) ng/ml. 相似文献
Methods: Ten volunteers underwent determination of carbon dioxide responsiveness using a rebreathing design, and a model was fit to the end-expiratory carbon dioxide and minute ventilation. Afterwards, the volunteers received remifentanil in a stepwise ascending pattern using a computer-controlled infusion pump until significant ventilatory depression occurred (end-tidal carbon dioxide [Peco2] > 65 mmHg and/or imminent apnea). Thereafter, the concentration was reduced to 1 ng/ml. Remifentanil pharmacokinetics and Paco2 were determined from frequent arterial blood samples. An indirect response model was used to describe the Paco2 time course as a function of remifentanil concentration.
Results: The time course of hypercarbia after administration of remifentanil was well described by the following pharmacodynamic parameters: F (gain of the carbon dioxide response), 4.30; ke0 carbon dioxide, 0.92 min-1; baseline Paco2, 42.4 mmHg; baseline minute ventilation, 7.06 l/min; kel,CO2, 0.08 min-1; C50 for ventilatory depression, 0.92 ng/ml; Hill coefficient, 1.25. 相似文献
Methods: The authors studied 32 children aged between 3 and 10 yr who were scheduled to undergo esophagogastroduodenoscopy. Propofol was administered via a target-controlled infusion system using the STANPUMP software based on a pediatric pharmacokinetic model. Remifentanil was administered as a constant rate infusion of 25, 50, and 100 ng [middle dot] kg-1 [middle dot] min-1 to each of three study groups, respectively. A sigmoid Emax model was developed to describe the interaction of remifentanil and propofol.
Results: There was a positive interaction between remifentanil and propofol when used in combination. The concentration of propofol alone associated with 50% probability of no response was 3.7 [mu]g/ml (SE, 0.4 [mu]g/ml), and this was decreased to 2.8 [mu]g/ml (SE, 0.1 [mu]g/ml) when used in combination with remifentanil. 相似文献
Methods: The study was placebo-controlled, double-blind, and randomized. Steady-state ventilatory responses to carbon dioxide and responses to a step into hypoxia (duration, 3 min; oxygen saturation, [approximately] 82%; end-tidal carbon dioxide tension, 45 mmHg) were obtained before and during intravenous morphine or placebo administration (bolus dose of 100 micro gram/kg, followed by a continuous infusion of 30 micro gram [center dot] kg sup -1 [center dot] h sup -1) in 12 men and 12 women.
Results: In women, morphine reduced the slope of the ventilatory response to carbon dioxide from 1.8 +/- 0.9 to 1.3 +/- 0.7 l [center dot] min sup -1 [center dot] mmHg sup -1 (mean +/- SD; P < 0.05), whereas in men there was no significant effect (control = 2.0 +/- 0.4 vs. morphine = 1.8 +/- 0.4 l [center dot] min sup -1 [center dot] mmHg sup -1). Morphine had no effect on the apneic threshold in women (control = 33.8 +/- 3.8 vs. morphine = 35.3 +/- 5.3 mmHg), but caused an increase in men from 34.5 +/- 2.3 to 38.3 +/- 3 mmHg, P < 0.05). Morphine decreased hypoxic sensitivity in women from 1.0 +/- 0.5 l [center dot] min sup -1 [center dot] % sup -1 to 0.5 +/- 0.4 l [center dot] min sup -1 [center dot] % sup -1 (P < 0.05) but did not cause a decrease in men (control = 1.0 +/- 0.5 l [center dot] min sup -1 [center dot] % sup -1 vs. morphine = 0.9 +/- 0.5 l [center dot] min sup -1 [center dot] % sup -1). Weight, lean body mass, body surface area, and calculated fat mass differed between the sexes, but their inclusion in the analysis as a covariate revealed no influence on the differences between men and women in morphine-induced changes. 相似文献
Methods: In eight volunteers, the influence of pain on various stimuli was assessed: room air breathing, normoxia (end-tidal pressure of carbon dioxide (PETCO2) clamped, normoxic and hyperoxic hypercapnia, acute hypoxia, and sustained hypoxia (duration, 15-18 min; end-tidal pressure of oxygen, approximately 53 mmHg). Noxious stimulation was administered in the form of a 1-Hz electric current applied to the skin over the tibial bone.
Results: While volunteers breathed room air, pain increased ventilation (V with dotI) from 10.9 +/- 1.7 to 12.9 +/- 2.5 l/min sup -1 (P < 0.05) and reduced PETCO2 from 38.3 +/- 2.3 to 36.0 +/- 2.3 mmHg (P < 0.05). The increase in V with dotI due to pain did not differ among the different stimuli. This resulted in a parallel leftward-shift of the V with dotI -carbon dioxide response curve in normoxia and hyperoxia, and in a parallel shift to higher V with dotI levels in acute and sustained hypoxia. 相似文献
Methods: Twenty healthy volunteers received either propofol or remifentanil alone and then concurrently with a fixed concentration of remifentanil or propofol, respectively, via a target-controlled infusion. Responses to shaking and shouting and to laryngoscopy were assessed multiple times after allowing for plasma effect site equilibration. The raw electroencephalogram and BIS were recorded throughout the study, and AE was calculated off-line. Response surfaces were fit to the clinical response data using logistic regression or hierarchical response models. Response surfaces were also estimated for BIS and AE. Surfaces were visualized using three-dimensional rotations. Model parameters were estimated with NONMEM.
Results: Remifentanil alone had no appreciable effect on response to shaking and shouting or response to laryngoscopy. Propofol could ablate both responses. Modest remifentanil concentrations dramatically reduced the concentrations of propofol required to ablate both responses. The hierarchical response surface described the data better than empirical logistic regression. BIS and AE are more sensitive to propofol than to remifentanil. 相似文献
Methods: Twelve healthy volunteers completed this randomized, double-blind, crossover study. Ventilatory responses to carbon dioxide and to isocapnic hypoxia were determined during four treatment phases: (1) baseline, (2) alfentanil infusion; (3) combined midazolam and alfentanil infusions, and (4) combined alfentanil, midazolam, and "study drug" (consisting of either flumazenil or flumazenil vehicle) infusions. Subjects returned 2-6 weeks later to receive the alternate study drug.
Results: Alfentanil decreased the slope of the carbon dioxide response curve from 2.14 +/- 0.40 to 1.43 +/- 0.19 l [dot] min sup -1 [dot] mmHg sup -1 (x +/- SE, P < 0.05), and decreased the minute ventilation at PET CO2 = 50 mmHg (V with dotE 50) from 19.7 +/- 1.2 to 14.8 +/- 0.9 l [dot] min sup -1 (P < 0.05). Midazolam further reduced these variables to 0.87 +/- 0.17 l [dot] min sup -1 [dot] mmHg sup -1 (P < 0.05) and 11.7 +/- 0.8 l [dot] min sup -1 (P <0.05), respectively. With addition of flumazenil, slope and V with dot sub E 50 increased to 1.47 +/- 0.37 l [dot] min sup -1 [dot] mmHg sup -1 (P < 0.05) and 16.4 +/- 2.0 l [dot] min sup -1 (P < 0.05); after placebo, the respective values of 1.02 +/- 0.19 l [dot] min sup -1 [dot] mmHg sup -1 and 12.5 +/- 1.2 l [dot] min sup -1 did not differ significantly from their values during combined alfentanil and midazolam administration. The effect of flumazenil differed significantly from that of placebo (P < 0.05). Both the slope and the displacement of the hypoxic ventilatory response, measured at PET CO2 = 46 +/- 1 mmHg, were affected similarly, with flumazenil showing a significant improvement compared to placebo. 相似文献
Methods: The authors used a pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic dataset in which patients received cisatracurium, 75 or 300 [mu]g/kg (1.5 or 6 x ED95), to generate plasma concentration (Cp) and twitch depression (effect) curves. They then evaluated the impact of the following: assuming that Cp decreased monotonically versus increasing initially before decreasing monotonically; misrecording effect data by 6 s or less; and doses targeting incomplete versus complete paralysis. Parameters evaluated were the steady state Cp depressing twitch tension 50% (C50) and the rate constant for equilibration between plasma and effect site concentrations (ke0).
Results: With the large dose, increasing the time at which Cp peaked from 0.0 to 1.5 min decreased C50 and increased ke0 markedly; with the small dose, changes in both were small. Misrecording the timing of effect had a larger impact with the large dose compared with the small dose. Doses smaller than ED50 or those producing prolonged, complete twitch depression yielded biased and variable estimates. 相似文献
Postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) occurs frequently after bariatric surgery and is a major cause of adverse outcomes. This retrospective study investigated whether opioid-restricted total intravenous anesthesia using dexmedetomidine as a substitute for remifentanil can reduce PONV in bariatric surgery.
Materials and MethodsThe electronic medical records of adult patients who underwent laparoscopic bariatric surgery between January and December 2019 were reviewed. The patients were divided into two groups according to the agents used for anesthesia: Group D, propofol and dexmedetomidine; Group R, propofol and remifentanil.
ResultsA total of 134 patients were included in the analyses. The frequency of postoperative nausea was significantly lower in Group D than that in Group R until 2 h after discharge from the postanesthesia care unit (PACU) (P?=?0.005 in the PACU, P?=?0.010 at 2 h after PACU discharge) but failed to significantly reduce the overall high incidence rates of 60.5% and 65.5%, respectively (P?=?0.592). Postoperative pain score was significantly lower in Group D until 6 h after PACU discharge. The rates of rescue antiemetic and analgesic agent administration in the PACU were significantly lower in Group D than those in Group R.
ConclusionOpioid-restricted total intravenous anesthesia using dexmedetomidine reduces postoperative nausea, pain score, antiemetic, and analgesic requirements in the immediate postoperative period after bariatric surgery.
Graphical abstract 相似文献Methods: Thirty-six patients with American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status class I or II were recruited, of which 12 received a target remifentanil concentration of 0 ng/ml, eight 2 ng/ml, eight 4 ng/ml, and another eight 8 ng/ml. Next (before surgery), several step-wise changes in the end-tidal sevoflurane concentration (FET,sevo) were performed. A data acquisition system simultaneously recorded FET,sevo, the raw electroencephalogram, BIS, and SEF. The authors used a combination of an effect compartment and an inhibitory sigmoid EMAX model to describe the relation between FET,sevo and BIS, SEF, and CUP. Model parameters (t1/2ke0, EMAX, EMIN, C50, [gamma], CUP weight factors) were estimated using the population data analysis program NONMEM. Significant remifentanil model parameter dependencies (P < 0.01) were determined.
Results: Determined from SEF, remifentanil had no effect on t1/2ke0 (1.91 +/- 0.26 min [mean +/- standard error]) but caused an increase in C50 (baseline = 1.48 +/- 0.12%; 80% increase at 8 ng/ml) and decrease in EMIN (baseline = 10.8 +/- 0.6 Hz; 80% reduction at 8 ng/ml). Determined from CUP, remifentanil caused a dose-dependent decrease in t1/2ke0 (baseline = 4.31 +/- 1.00 min; 60% decrease at 8 ng/ml), with no effect on C50 (baseline = 0.88 +/- 0.13%). Determined from BIS, remifentanil caused a dose-dependent decrease in t1/2ke0 (baseline value = 3.11 +/- 0.32 min; 40% decrease at 8 ng/ml), without affecting C50 (baseline = 1.12 +/- 0.05%). Median R2 values of the pooled data set were 0.815 for SEF, 0.933 for CUP (P < 0.01 vs. SEF), and 0.952 for BIS (P < 0.01 vs. SEF and CUP). Addition of remifentanil increased the R2 values for CUP only. 相似文献
