INDICATORS GENERAL hemodynamics in gynecological cancer patients, surgery under spinal-epidural anesthesia with stress-protection

 

     Changes in hemodynamics are caused not only a response to pharmacological agents [1, 2], used for anesthesia and sedation; but are one of the quality characteristics of the adequacy of anesthetic protection [4].

      Purpose of the study. To assess the adequacy and safety of anesthetic protection we determined the parameters of the general hemodynamics during gynecological cancer operations under spinal-epidural anesthesia (CEA) to stress the patronage of clonidine and without thereof.

Material and method. The study was approved by the Ethics Committee of the Novosibirsk State Medical University and was conducted in 143 patients who anesthetic maintenance was performed during surgery for malignant and benign diseases of the female reproductive organs.

     In group 1 (control) (n = 70) operations were carried out under spinal-epidural anesthesia marcaine. In the second group (basic) (n = 78) for 30 minutes before the anesthesia was administered intramuscularly clonidine in addition to a dose of 0,002 mg / kg. The treatment groups were comparable in age, anthropometric data, comorbidities, scope and duration of the operation.

     All patients were operated on in a planned manner. They carried out a preliminary and immediate premedication on traditional principles.

     To reduce the possible adverse effect of sympathetic blockade on hemodynamics, all patients underwent preventive infusion-transfusion therapy in the mode hypervolemic hemodilution in a ratio of 2: 1 (crystalloid: colloid) 800-1000 mL (784,0 ± 56,0). The total volume of infusion during surgery Group amounted to 2045,6 ± 22,7 ml and 2061,1 ± 23,6 ml.

     A puncture of the spinal and epidural space was performed in the lateral position by bisegmental method. To provide a spinal component we used SEA 2 to 5 ml of (3,4 ± 0,05) 0,5% isobaric bupivacaine solution that was 0.21 ± 0.04 mg / kg body weight. To implement the epidural component using the standard technique of catheterization of the epidural space, which was administered in divided doses of isobaric 0.5% bupivacaine solution in an average dose of 11.0 ± 0.5 ml.

     During the operational period of oxygen therapy was conducted through face mask oxygen-air mixture with an oxygen content of 60% and gazotokom 4-6 l / min. Insufflation began after translation into the operational position, and according to the pulse oximeter that was enough for the prevention of hypoxia in conditions of spontaneous breathing. Sedation in the operation period was provided by a single administration of midazolam 0.14 mg / kg bolus and fractional use of ketamine in a dose of 1 mg / kg.

     Translation of patients in the ward was possible after 7 ± 5,2 minutes after surgery with no evidence of secondary drug-induced sleep. In the early postoperative period, analgesia was carried out by introducing into the channel epidural bupivacaine 0.5% in the volume of 4.0 ml in the "on demand" and its average consumption was 0,72 ± 0,07 mg / hr. Apart from epidural anesthesia used in traditional narcotic analgesic doses. Thus, the use of epidural block it possible not only to implement the analgesic component of anesthesia, but clinically beneficial effects of sympathetic blockade on the stages of the direct and immediate postoperative period.

     During anesthesia were monitored: systolic (BPs), diastolic (BPd), the mean (mBP) arterial blood pressure, heart rate (HR) and hemoglobin saturation level of arterial blood. Defining the parameters was carried out in the following stages: 1st - 30 minutes before the surgery, the second - in the most traumatic time of surgery (removal of the drug) and the fourth after 60 minutes after admission to the ward office.

The results and discussion. Indicators of general hemodynamics BPs, BPd, mBP and heart rate, registered in the groups of patients are shown in Table 1.

     The first group of patients to the 2nd stage (the most traumatic moment of the operation) BPs indicators, mBP and BPd decreased respectively by 32.9, 9.3 and 0.1%, and the 3rd stage (the end of the surgery) the decline was 34.5, 27.7 and 19.6% (p <0.05), respectively, compared with the original data. By the 4 th stage of monitoring (immediate postoperative period) recorded a slight increase in the overall hemodynamic parameters. But in comparison with the initial data reduction parameters BPs, mBP and BPd remained at 26.1, 28.7 and 16.4%, respectively (p <0.05). The slight acceleration of the heart rate of 4.2% was found to 2 to Phase study, the 3rd stage marked slowing of the heart rate by 12.9% in comparison with the baseline. And on the 4th stage of the recorded acceleration of heart rate by 9.0% from baseline.

     In the second group of patients, where stress protection used clonidine to the 2nd phase of the study BPs, mBP and BPd decreased by 18.5, 17.0 and 8.9% compared with the original data. In the 3rd stage, these indicators for monitoring were 18.8, 15.8 and 12.8% less than the original data. In the immediate postoperative period BPs, mBP and BPd an account by 9.1, 12.5 and 10.4% less than the original data.

     Heart rate in patients in group 2 decreased sequentially by 9.0, 11.9 and 12.0%, respectively, from the stage of the study raw data.

Conclusion. Thus, it can be noted that changes in overall hemodynamics were less pronounced in the second group of patients in comparison with indicators of the first group, which used a stress patronage by clonidine
