Abstract
Objective To compare the anesthetic effects of remifentanil and fentanyl in elderly patient undergoing transurethral electro-vaporization of the prostate.Methods Eighty cases of the elderly patients (age ≥60 years) with transurethral resection of the prostate operation in the hospital were randomly divided into remifentanil group(R group,n =40) and fentanyl group (F group,n =40).Patients in R group and F group were administrated remifentanil and fentanyl respectively for induction and maintenance of anesthesia.The following indices were recorded including the changes of emodynamics (lood pressure,heart rate) in before-and after-anesthesia,postoperative recovery (spontaneous breathing recovery time,open the recovery time,extubation time) and the adverse reaction within 24 hours after operation (awareness during operation,nausea,vomiting).Results Blood pressures,heart rate of after-anesthesia in R group were lower than that in before-anesthesia and F group,the difference were significant(Blood pressures:F within group =58.306,P within group =0.000,F interactive group =142.450,p interactive group =0.000,F between group =7.417,P between group =0.010;heart rate:F within group =41.512,P within group =0.000,F interactive group =269.103,P interactive group =0.000,F between grouP =39.703,P between group =0.000).Spontaneous breathing recovery time,opening eye time and extubation time in group R were significantly shorter than that of F group (Spontaneous breathing recovery time:(7.5 ± 1.3) min vs.(10.7 ± 3.1) min,t =3.011 ; Opening eye time:(13.5 ± 3.2) min vs.(18.3 ± 5.2) min,t =2.611 ; Extubation time:(24.4 ± 5.5) min vs.(29.2 ± 7.1) min,t =2.696 ; all P < 0.05).No significant differences were found in R and F group in terms of intraoperative awareness postoperative nausea,vomiting (P > 0.05).Conclusion Remifentanil used in elderly patients with transurethral electro-vaporization of the prostate was safer and more effective than fentanyl.Meanwhile postoperative recovery in Remifentanil patient was more rapidly.Therefore Remifentanil was ideal drug during the process clinical anesthesia.
