Epidural Dexmedetomidine Reduces the Requirement of Propofol during Total Intravenous Anaesthesia and Improves Analgesia after Surgery in Patients undergoing Open Thoracic Surgery

Abstract The aim of this study was to assess the systemic and analgesic effects of epidural dexmedetomidine in thoracic epidural anaesthesia (TEA) combined with total intravenous anaesthesia during thoracic surgery. Seventy-one patients undergoing open thoracotomy were included in this study and ran...

Seventy-one patients undergoing open thoracotomy were included in this study and randomly divided into three groups: Control group (Group C): patients received TEA with levobupivacaine alone and were intravenously infused with saline; Epidural group (Group E): patients received TEA with levobupivacaine and dexmedetomidine, and were intravenously infused with saline; Intravenous group (group V): patients received TEA with levobupivacaine alone and were intravenously infused with dexmedetomidine. The doses of propofol used in the induction and maintenance of general anaesthesia, cardiovascular response, dose and first time of postoperative analgesia and verbal rating scale were recorded. The induction and maintenance were significantly lower in the Groups E and V. Verbal rating scale and postoperative analgesic requirements were significantly lower in Group E than in Groups C and V. Patients in Group C had more severe cardiovascular responses, as compared with Groups E and V. Epidural administration of dexmedetomidine reduced the induction and maintenance of propofol, and inhibited the cardiovascular response after intubation and extubation. Moreover, epidural dexmedetomidine provided better analgesia after open thoracotomy.Xianzhang ZengJingjing JiangLingling YangWengang DingNature PortfolioarticleMedicineRScienceQENScientific Reports, Vol 7, Iss 1, Pp 1-9 (2017)
