Evaluation of the effects of dexmedetomidine infusion on oxygenation and lung mechanics in morbidly obese patients with restrictive lung disease.

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND:Dexmedetomidine infusion improves oxygenation and lung mechanics in patients with chronic obstructive lung disease; however, its effect in patients with restrictive lung disease has not been thoroughly investigated yet. The aim of this work was to evaluate the effects of dexmedetomidine infusion on oxygenation and lung mechanics in morbidly obese patients with restrictive lung disease. METHODS:Forty-two morbidly obese patients scheduled for bariatric surgery were included in the study. Patients were randomized to receive either dexmedetomidine infusion at a bolus dose of 1mcg/Kg followed by infusion at 1 mcg/Kg/hour for 90 min (Dexmedetomidine group), or normal saline infusion (Control group). Both groups were compared with regard to: oxygenation {P/F ratio: PaO2/fraction of inspired oxygen (FiO2)}, lung compliance, dead space, plateau pressure, blood pressure, and heart rate. RESULTS:Dexmedetomidine group showed significant improvement of the PaO2/FiO2 ratio, and higher lung compliance compared to control group by the end of drug infusion. Dexmedetomidine group demonstrated decreased dead space, plateau pressure, blood pressure, and heart rate compared to control group by the end of drug infusion. CONCLUSION:A 90-min dexmedetomidine infusion resulted in moderate improvement in oxygenation and lung mechanics in morbidly obese patients with restrictive lung disease.

Project description:STUDY OBJECTIVE:To evaluate the effects of dexmedetomidine on hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction (HPV) and oxygenation during one-lung ventilation (OLV) in adults undergoing thoracic surgery. DESIGN:Prospective, randomized, double-blinded trial. SETTING:Tertiary care, University-based hospital. PATIENTS:Nineteen adult patients undergoing thoracic surgery requiring OLV. INTERVENTIONS:During inhalational anesthesia with desflurane, patients were randomized to receive either dexmedetomidine (bolus dose of 0.3 ?g/kg followed by an infusion of 0.3 ?g/kg/hr) or saline placebo. MEASUREMENTS:Three arterial blood gas samples (ABG) were obtained to evaluate the effects of dexmedetomidine on oxygenation. Secondary outcomes included differences in hemodynamic parameters (heart rate and mean arterial pressure), end-tidal desflurane concentration required to maintain the bispectral index (BIS) at 40-60, supplemental fentanyl to maintain hemodynamic stability, and phenylephrine to keep the mean arterial pressure (MAP) within 10% of baseline values. MAIN RESULTS:Oxygenation during OLV did not change following the administration of dexmedetomidine (PaO2/FiO2 ratio of 188 ± 115 in dexmedetomidine patients versus 135 ± 70 mmHg in placebo patients). There were no differences in hemodynamic variables or depth of anaesthesia between the two groups. With the administration of dexmedetomidine, there was a decrease in the expired concentration of desflurane required to maintain the BIS at 40-60 when compared with the control group (4.5 ± 0.8% versus 5.1 ± 0.8%). In patients receiving dexmedetomidine, fentanyl requirements were decreased when compared to placebo (2.7 ?g/kg/patient versus 3.1 ?g/kg/patient). However, more patients receiving dexmedetomidine required phenylephrine to maintain hemodynamic stability (6 of 9 patients versus 3 of 10 patients) and the total dose of phenylephrine was greater in patients receiving dexmedetomidine when compared with placebo 10.3 ?g/kg/patient versus 1.1 ?g/kg/patient). CONCLUSION:Dexmedetomidine does not adversely affect oxygenation during OLV in adults undergoing thoracic surgical procedures. The improvement in oxygenation in the dexmedetomidine patients may be related to a decrease in the requirements for inhalational anaesthetic agents thereby limiting its effects on HPV.

Project description:BackgroundDexmedetomidine (Dex), a selective a2-adrenergic receptor agonist, has been previously reported to attenuate intrapulmonary shunt during one-lung ventilation (OLV) and to alleviate bronchoconstriction. However, the therapeutic effects of nebulized Dex on pulmonary shunt and lung mechanics during OLV have not been evaluated. Here we determine whether nebulized dexmedetomidine improved pulmonary shunt and lung mechanics in patients undergoing elective thoracic surgery in a prospective randomized controlled clinical trial.MethodsOne hundred and twenty-eight patients undergoing elective thoracoscopic surgery were included in this study and randomly divided into four groups: 0.9% saline (Placebo group), 0.5 µg/kg (Dex0.5 group), 1 µg/kg (Dex1 group) and 2 µg/kg (Dex2group) dexmedetomidine. After bronchial intubation, patients received different nebulized doses of dexmedetomidine (0.5 µg/kg, 1 µg/kg and 2 µg/kg) or 0.9% saline placebo during two-lung ventilation(TLV). OLV was initiated 15 min after bronchial intubation. Anesthesia was maintained with intravenous infusion of cisatracurium and propofol. Bispectral Index values were maintained within 40-50 by adjusting the infusion of propofol in all groups. Arterial blood gas samples and central venous blood gas samples were taken as follows: 15 min after bronchial intubation during two-lung ventilation (TLV15), after 30 and 60 min of OLV (OLV30and OLV60, respectively) and 15 min after reinstitution of TLV (ReTLV). Dynamic compliance was also calculated at TLV15, OLV30, OLV60 and ReTLV.ResultsDex decreased the requirement of propofol in a dose-dependent manner(P = 0.000). Heart rate (HR) and mean arterial pressure (MAP) displayed no significant difference among groups (P = 0.397 and 0.863). Compared with the placebo group, Dex administered between 0.5 and 2 µg/kg increased partial pressure of oxygen (PaO2) significantly at OLV30 and OLV60(P = 0.000); however, Dex administered between 1 and 2 µg/kg decreased pulmonary shunt fraction (Qs/Qt) at OLV30 and OLV60(P = 0.000). Compared with the placebo group, there were significant increases with dynamic compliance (Cdyn) after OLV in Dex0.5, Dex1 and Dex2group(P = 0.000). Conclusions. Nebulized dexmedetomidine improved oxygenation not only by decreasing pulmonary shunt but also by improving lung compliance during OLV, which may be effective in managing OLV.

Project description:BackgroundBariatric surgery depends on the development of novel anesthetic techniques to reduce the incidence of complications and improve postoperative outcomes. Ketamine and dexmedetomidine have been used for perioperative analgesia and we hypothesized that they would decrease postoperative morphine requirements. The objective of this trial is to study whether choice of ketamine or dexmedetomidine infusion would affect postoperative total morphine consumption.MethodsNinety patients were equally randomized into three groups. The ketamine group received a bolus dose (0.3 mg/kg) of ketamine over 10 min, followed by an infusion of the same drug (0.3 mg/kg/h). The dexmedetomidine group received a bolus dose (0.5 mcg/kg) of dexmedetomidine over 10 min, followed by an infusion of this drug (0.5 mg/kg/h). The control group received a saline infusion. All infusions were given till 10 min before the end of surgeries. Intraoperative fentanyl was given when patient developed hypertension and tachycardia despite adequate anesthesia and muscle relaxation. Postoperative pain was managed by a rescue dose of 4 mg of IV morphine, with a minimum interval of 6 h between morphine doses if the numerical rating scale (NRS) score was ≥ 4. The primary outcome was the total morphine dose, and the secondary outcomes were intraoperative fentanyl requirement, time to extubation, postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV), NRS scores, and modified observer's agitation/sedation scale (MOASS) scores.ResultsCompared with ketamine, dexmedetomidine decreased the need for fentanyl intraoperatively (160 ± 42 µg), shortened the time to extubation (3 ± 1 min), and improved MOASS and PONV scores. In turn, ketamine decreased postoperative NRS scores and the need for morphine (3 ± 3 mg).ConclusionsDexmedetomidine treatment was associated with lower fentanyl doses, a shorter time to extubation, and better MOASS and PONV scores. Ketamine treatment was associated with significantly lower NRS scores and morphine doses. These results indicated that dexmedetomidine effectively decreased intraoperative fentanyl requirement and the time to extubation, while ketamine decreased the need for morphine.Trial registrationThis trail was registered on the clinicaltrials.gov registry (NCT04576975) on October 6, 2020.
