ObjectiveTo study the feasibility of using propofol and remifentanil for reduction of shoulder joint dislocation in the conscious elderly patients, and compare its efficacy with brachial plexus block anesthesia. MethodsSeventy elderly patients (American Sociaty of Anesthesiologist physical statusⅠ-Ⅱ) who underwent shoulder dislocation reduction in our hospital between August 2011 and December 2013 were randomly divided into two groups, each group having 35 cases. Patients in group A received brachial plexus nerve block anesthesia downlink gimmick reset, while patients in group B received the use of remifentanil-propofol and lidocaine compound liquid intravenous drop infusion for anesthesia downlink manipulative reduction. After successful anesthesia, two groups of patients were treated with traction and foot pedal method (Hippocrates) to reset. We observed the two groups of patients in the process of reduction, and recorded their hemodynamic changes, reset time, discharge time, postoperative satisfaction, intra-operative memory, breathing forgotten (breathing interval was longer than 15 seconds) and visual analogue scale (VAS) scores, and then comparison was made between the two groups. ResultsPatients in both the two groups successfully completed manipulative reduction. Compared with group A, patients in group B had more stable hemodynamic indexes during the process of reduction, shorter reduction time, better anesthesia effect and higher postoperative satisfaction degree, and the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05). There was no significant difference in terms of time of leaving the operation room between the two groups (P>0.05). VAS score was higher in group A than that in group B (P<0.05). The occurrence of intra-operative memory amnesia and breathing forgotten phenomenon existed in part of the patients after operation in group B, but they did not occur in patients in group A. ConclusionRemifentanyl propofol-lidocaine compound fluid can be safely used in conscious elderly patients for shoulder joint dislocation reconstructive surgery, and it functions quickly with complete analgesia and stable hemodynamic indexes.

Objective To explore the value of wide-awake local anesthesia no tourniquet (WALANT) technique in the treatment of acute Achilles tendon rupture. MethodsIn a prospective randomized controlled trial, 48 patients with acute Achilles tendon rupture who met the criteria between March 2020 and October 2020 were randomly divided into two groups according to 1∶1 distribution, with 24 cases in each group. The study group used WALANT technique and the control group used epidural anesthesia with tourniquet for channel-assisted minimally invasive repair (CAMIR). There was no significant difference between the two groups in gender, age, injured side, cause of injury, distance from broken end of Achilles tendon to calcaneal tubercle, and time from injury to hospitalization (P>0.05). The operating room use time (from patients entering the operating room to leaving the operating room), intraoperative blood loss, hospital stay, and the highest pain score [using Numerical Rating Scale (NRS)] during operation and at 1 day after operation were recorded and compared between the two groups. The tourniquet adverse reactions in the control group were recorded. The functional recovery was evaluated by the scoring method of American Orthopedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) at 12 months after operation. ResultsThe operation was successfully completed in both groups. The operating room use time and hospital stay in the study group were significantly less than those in the control group (P<0.05), but the difference in the intraoperative blood loss between the two groups was not significant (t=0.429, P=0.670). There was no significant difference in the highest NRS score during operation between the two groups (t=1.671, P=0.101); the highest NRS score in the study group at 1 day after operation was significantly lower than that in the control group (t=−6.384, P<0.001). In the control group, 13 patients had different degrees of tourniquet adverse reactions, including tourniquet regional pain, local swelling, blisters, thigh numbness, and discomfort. The patients in both groups were followed up 12-18 months, with an average of 13.9 months. The motor function of all patients returned to normal at 12 months after operation. The difference in AOFAS scores between the two groups was not significant (t=0.345, P=0.731). There was no complication such as sural nerve injury, local infection, and secondary rupture in both groups. ConclusionThe application of WALANT combined with CAMIR technique in the treatment of acute Achilles tendon rupture has good anesthetic and effectiveness, avoids the adverse reactions of tourniquet, and reasonably saves social medical resources.
Objective To investigate the current status and influencing factors of the awake prone position in patients with mild and moderate acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Methods A total of 210 patients with mild to moderate ARDS admitted between December 2022 and January 2023 were investigated by general information questionnaire and self-made prone position knowledge questionnaire. The daily prone position time during hospitalization was recorded. The influencing factors of awake prone position were analyzed by univariate and multivariate linear regression. Results The 210 mild and moderate ARDS patients had an average daily prone position length of stay of (4.97±3.94)h/d, showing a low level. Multiple linear regression analysis showed that prone position knowledge score, age, waist circumference and BMI were the influencing factors of awake prone position (P<0.05). Conclusions Daily awake prone position length was at a low level in mild and moderate ARDS patients. Healthcare workers can prolong the time in the prone position by developing an individualized treatment plan for the prone position, improving the patient’s perception of the prone position, and resolving the discomfort from the prone position.
ObjectiveTo discuss the method and effectiveness of Wide-awake technique in flexor tendon tenolysis.MethodsThe clinical data of 16 patients (22 fingers) with flexor tendon adhesion treated by Wide-awake technique for flexor tendon tenolysis between May 2019 and December 2019 were retrospectively analyzed. The patients were all male, aged from 18 to 55 years old, with an average of 35 years old. Among them, 4 cases (7 fingers) after replantation of severed fingers, 4 cases (7 fingers) after flexor tendon rupture repair, and 8 cases (8 fingers) after open reduction and internal fixation of proximal fractures. The time from the original operation to this operation was 6-18 months, with an average of 8 months. The visual analogue scale (VAS) score was used to evaluate the patient’s pain during local anesthesia (when the first needle penetrated the skin), intraoperative, and 24 hours postoperatively; and the recovery of finger movement was evaluated by total finger joint active range of motion (TAM) evaluation system and Strickland (1980) standard after operation.ResultsIntraoperative hemostasis and anesthesia were satisfactory, and the patient could fully cooperate with the surgeon in active finger movements. There were different degrees of pain during local anesthesia (VAS score was 2-4), no pain during operation (VAS score was 0), and different degrees of pain after operation (VAS score was 1-8, 9 patients needed analgesics). All incisions healed by first intention after operation. All 16 cases were followed up 9-15 months with an average of 12 months. Finger function was significantly improved, no tendon rupture occurred. At last follow-up, the patients after proximal fracture open reduction and internal fixation were rated as excellent in 4 fingers and good in 4 fingers according to the TAM standard, and both were excellent according to the Strickland (1980) standard; and the patients after replantation of severed fingers and flexor tendon rupture repair were rated as excellent in 4 fingers and good in 10 fingers according to TAM standard, and as excellent in 6 fingers and good in 8 fingers according to Strickland (1980) standard.ConclusionWide-awake technique applied in flexor tendon tenolysis can accurately judge the tendon adhesion and release degree through the patient’s active activity, achieve the purpose of complete release, and the effectiveness is satisfactory; the effectiveness of tendon adhesion release surgery after fracture internal fixation is better than that of patients after tendon rupture suture and replantation.
ObjectiveTo explore the safety and feasibility of the establishment method and management strategy of prolonged support model with veno-venous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (V-V ECMO) under dual lumen cannula (DLC) in conscious sheep.MethodsThree adult male sheep were selected. An Avalon Elite DLC was inserted into the superior vena cava, right atrium, and inferior vena cava through the right jugular vein and was connected with centrifugal pump and oxygenator to establish the extracorporeal membrane oxygenation circuit. All the 3 sheep were transferred into the monitoring cage after operation and were ambulatory after anesthesia recovery. Hemodynamic parameters and extracorporeal membrane oxygenation performance were measured every day.ResultsAll three sheep survived to the end of the experiment (7 days). In the whole process of the experiment, the basic vital signs of the experimental sheep were stable, and no serious bleeding or thrombotic events occurred. During the experiment, hemoglobin concentration and platelet count were relatively stable, plasma free hemoglobin was maintained at a low level, extracorporeal membrane oxygenation flow rate was stable, and oxygenation performance of oxygenator was good.ConclusionProlonged V-V ECMO model in conscious sheep under DLC is feasible and stable.
ObjectiveTo study the feasibility of using propofol and remifentanil for tracheal intubation in patients who are awake, and investigate the influence of tracheal intubation on such vital signs as blood pressure and heart rates. MethodsEighty ASA I-Ⅱ patients who underwent general anesthesia in our hospital between December 2012 and April 2013 were randomly divided into two groups. Patients in group A received fentanyl-propofol, while patients in group B received remifentanyl-propofol-lidocaine. There was no significant difference between the two groups in gender, age, and body weight (P>0.05). Conventional intubation induction method was used for group A:0.05-0.10 mg/kg midazolam, 4 μg/kg fentanyl, 1.0-1.5 mg/kg propofol, and 0.6-0.9 mg/kg atracurium were given and tracheal intubation was performed after muscle relaxation. Group B patients were treated with remifentanyl propofol-lidocaine compound liquid slow intravenous injection, and compound cricothyroid membrane puncture method before endotracheal intubation. We observed the two groups of patients for vital signs before and after induction, and choking cough reactions. ResultsPatients in both the two groups were all able to complete tracheal intubation. Circulation change and incidence of tachycardia in patients of group A were significantly higher than those in group B (P<0.05). The rates of bradycardia, hypoxemia, and choking cough response were low in both groups with no statistically significant difference (P>0.05). ConclusionRemifentanyl propofol-lidocaine compound liquid can be safely used for implementation of endotracheal intubation in patients who are awake, and the hemodynamic stability can be maintained.
目的:探讨老年手术患者椎管内麻醉后应用异丙酚镇静,脑电双频指数、异丙酚血药浓度和镇静深度之间的相关性［1］。方法:48例ASAⅠ~Ⅱ级择期手术患者,分为老年组(65~85岁)和年轻组(18~40岁),每组24例。为尽快达到稳态血药浓度,采用靶控输注方式给药。异丙酚靶浓度从0.5 μg/mL起逐渐增加,直至患者对轻推无反应(意识消失),每个浓度维持5min。连续记录EEG参数,在每一稳态血药浓度末,记录BIS、95%SEF, 桡动脉取血(高效液相色谱法测定异丙酚血药浓度),并评定镇静深度(OAA/S评分法)。用Spearman’s等级相关进行相关分析,并计算预测概率 (Pk) 值。结果:两组BIS (r=0.935~0.955) 与镇静水平的相关性优于血药浓度(r =0.849~0.870)和95%SEF(r =0.503~0.571),BIS的Pk值高(0.942~0.972)。在同一镇静评分(OAA/S 4~1)时,老年组BIS值明显高于年轻组(Plt;0.01),而血药浓度低于年轻组(Pgt;0.05)。结论:BIS在监测异丙酚镇静水平及预测意识消失方面有重要价值,在同一镇静评分时,老年人BIS值高于年轻人。
