  • Influence of Low-tidal Volume and Positive End Expiratory Pressure Protective Ventilation on Cardiac Output Volume in Elderly Patients under General Anesthesia

    Objective To study the influence of low-tidal volume and positive end expiratory pressure (PEEP) protective ventilation on cardiac output volume in elderly patients under general anesthesia. Methods From August 2012 to July 2014, 60 elderly patients undergoing selective surgery were divided into three groups with 20 patients in each. Group A was treated with conventional ventilation: tidal volume at 8 mL/kg, PEEP at 0 cm H2O (1 cm H2O=0.098 kPa); group B was treated with a tidal volume of 6 mL/kg and a PEEP of 5 cm H2O; group C was treated with a tidal volume of 6 mL/kg and a PEEP of 8 cm H2O. We then observed and analyzed the blood pressure, heart rate, cardiac output, arterial blood gas and airway mean pressure before induction of anesthesia (T0), 15 minutes of mechanical ventilation after the induction of anesthesia (T1), 60 minutes after anesthesia induction (T2), and 15 minutes after tracheal extubation (T3). Results In all the three groups, the mean arterial pressure and cardiac output were stable. In group B and C, central venous pressure increased significantly, the mean airway pressure and lung compliance increased, and the arterial oxygen branch pressure also increased significantly (P < 0.05). Conclusion Low-tidal volume combined with 5-cm H2O or 8-cm H2O positive end expiratory pressure lung-protective ventilation had a small influence on the cardiac output of elderly patients under anesthesia, which can be safely used.
