Abstract
Objective To compare the bronchial blocker and double-lumen tube for one-lung ventilation in the elderly patients undergoing minimally invasive direct coronary artery bypass (MIDCAB).Methods Thirty six patients of both sexes,aged 65-78 yr,with the left ventricular ejection fraction ≥ 45%,with body mass index < 30 kg/m2,of ASA physical status Ⅱ or Ⅲ (NYHA Ⅰ-Ⅲ),scheduled for elective MIDCAB in the left thorax,were randomly divided into 2 groups (n =18 each):double-lumen endotracheal tube group (group D) and bronchial blocker group (group B).Anesthesia was induced with midazolam 0.05 mg/kg,etomidate 0.3 mg/kg,fentanyl 10μg/kg and cisatracurium 0.15-0.20 mg/kg.The patients were intubated with a left-sided double-lumen endotracheal tube 5 min later in group D.The patients were intubated with a single-lumen endotracheal tube 5 min later,and then Coopdech bronchial blocker was inserted into the primary bronchus in group B.The patients were mechanically ventilated.Before induction of anesthesia,at 2 min before intubation,immediately before and after intubation,and at 1 and 2 min after intubation,mean arterial pressure (MAP),heart rate (HR),and mean pulmonary arterial pressure (mPAP) were recorded and rate-pressure product (RPP) was calculated.The requirement for vasoactive drugs was recorded during induction of anesthesia.Lung collapse developed after the pleura was opened was also recorded.Surgical exposure was scored at the end of operation.Results Compared with group D,MAP,HR RPP and mPAP were significantly decreased after intubation,the requirement for nicardipine and esmolol was decreased,and no significant change was found in the requirement for atropine and metaraminol,rate of lung collapse and score of surgical exposure in group B.Conclusion Compared with doublelumen tube,bronchial blocker can provide sufficient exposure of the surgical filed,and intubation-induced fluctuation of hemodynamics is small in the elderly patients undergoing MIDCAB.
