Objective: To investigate the best concentration ratio of propofol controlled-infusion combined with sevoflurane in anesthesia for patients undergoing laparoscopy.

Methods: One hundred patients undergoing cholecystectomy under laparoscopy were randomly divided into 5 equal groups treated with propofol controlled plasma at the concentrations of 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 microg/ml respectively (Group 1-5). Bispectral index (BIS) was maintained at a range of 50 +/- 5 by adjusting sevoflurane inhalation. The end-tidal concentration of sevoflurane (ETsevo), systolic pressure, diastolic pressure, recovery time, awareness, and post-operative nausea and vomiting (PONV) within 24 h after operation were recorded. The best concentration ratio of propofol controlled-infusion combined with sevoflurane with the definition as the highest ETsevo without PONV decrease along with the increase of propofol concentration.

Results: ETsevo was negatively correlated with and propofol concentration. There were nit significant differences in the systolic pressure, diastolic pressure, and recovery time among different groups. No incidence of intra-operative awareness was found. The PONV rates of Group 1 and 2 were both 60%, significantly higher than those of the other 3 groups (all P < 0.05) without significant differences in PONV rate among Group 3 - 5. The best concentration ratio of propofol controlled-infusion combined with sevoflurane was propofol controlled-infusion at the concentration of 1 microg/ml with ETsevo at the concentration as 1 minimal alveolar concentration (MAC).

Conclusion: Propofol controlled-infusion at the concentration of 1 microg/ml with ETsevo at the concentration as 1 MAC is the best concentration ratio with low PONV rate and a possibility to prevent intra-operative awareness.

Objective: In this study, we aimed to evaluate the localization and configuration of vibration and obstruction in drug-induced sleep endoscopy(DISE) in obstructive sleep apnea patients and to investigate the optimal sedation depth.

Materials And Methods: The study was conducted prospectively with 42 patients. After achieving sedation with intravenous anesthetic agents, simultaneous monitoring of the patient's bispectrometry (BIS), DISE and sleep testing with a type 2 polysomnography device were performed.

Background: Propofol is one of the most used intravenous anesthetic agents in traumatic brain injury (TBI) patients undergoing emergency neurosurgical procedures. Despite being efficacious, its administration is associated with dose-related adverse effects. The use of adjuvants along with propofol aids in limiting its consumption, thereby mitigating the side effects related to propofol usage.

Importance: The closed-loop infusion system can automatically adjust and maintain the depth of anesthesia by using the propofol target-controlled infusion (TCI) model under the feedback guidance of the bispectral index (BIS).

Objective: To evaluate the safety and superiority of closed-loop TCI of propofol guided by BIS during maintenance of generalized intravenous anesthesia for preschool children.

Methods: A total of 120 children aged 1-6 years were enrolled and were divided into a closed-loop feedback group (Group C) and an open-loop manual control group (Group O), with 60 participants in each group.

Article Synopsis
  • This study explores how the pharmacokinetics of propofol—specifically its required concentrations—varies in different phases (dissection, anhepatic, and neohepatic) during liver transplantation.
  • It involved 20 patients with chronic liver disease, and used a target-controlled infusion method to adjust propofol levels based on the bispectral index (BIS), which measures consciousness levels.
  • Results showed that the mean target concentration of propofol was highest during the dissection phase, significantly decreasing during the anhepatic and neohepatic phases, indicating a need for lower propofol dosages in those latter stages.

Influence of the type of anaesthesia on acute kidney injury after nephrectomy: a randomised controlled trial.

Anaesthesia

November 2024

Department of Anesthesiology and Pain Medicine, Seoul National University College of Medicine, Seoul National University Hospital, Seoul, Republic of Korea.

Article Synopsis
  • The study investigates the impact of maintenance anaesthetics (propofol vs. desflurane) on acute kidney injury (AKI) following nephrectomy in patients with renal cell carcinoma.
  • A total of 317 patients were analyzed, with a 25% incidence of postoperative AKI, showing no significant difference between the propofol group (27%) and the desflurane group (23%).
  • The conclusion suggests that the choice of anaesthetic does not influence AKI risk, indicating that future research should focus on other modifiable factors contributing to AKI in these patients.
