This study aimed to assess the efficacy of propofol and fentanyl in preventing EA and to compare their associated complications or side effects. Methods: This prospective randomized observational comparative study was conducted at Dhaka Medical College Hospital from July 2013 to June 2014. The study aimed to evaluate the effects of propofol and fentanyl on EA in children aged 18 to 72 months undergoing circumcision, herniotomy, and polypectomy operations. Ninety children were included in the study, with 45 in each group. Patients with psychological or neurological disorders were excluded. Various parameters including age, sex, weight, American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) class, duration of anesthesia, Saturation of Peripheral Oxygen (SPO2), heart rate (HR), respiratory rate (RR), Pediatric Anesthesia Emergence Delirium (PAED) score, duration of post-anesthesia care unit (PACU) stay, incidence of laryngospasm, nausea, vomiting, and rescue drug requirement were compared between the two groups. Results: Age, sex, weight, ASA class, and duration of anesthesia were comparable between the two groups. Perioperative SpO2 and HR were similar in both groups. However, the PAED score was significantly higher in the fentanyl group during all follow-ups except at 30 minutes postoperatively. The mean duration of PACU stay was significantly longer in the fentanyl group. Although the incidence of laryngospasm was higher in the fentanyl group, it was not statistically significant. Conversely, nausea or vomiting was significantly higher in the fentanyl group. The requirement for rescue drugs was significantly higher in the fentanyl group compared to the propofol group. Conclusion: Both propofol and fentanyl were effective in preventing emergence agitation in pediatric patients undergoing various surgical procedures under sevoflurane anesthesia. However, propofol demonstrated a better safety profile with fewer incidences of nausea, vomiting, and rescue drug requirements compared to fentanyl.展开更多
文摘目的:探讨阿替普酶(rt-PA)静脉溶栓联合丁苯酞用于急性脑梗死(acute cerebral infarction,ACI)患者治疗中的临床效果。方法:以2022年1月—2023年6月瑞金市人民医院收治的ACI患者82例为研究对象,按随机数字表法分为对照组(脑梗死常规治疗+rt-PA静脉溶栓)、观察组(在对照组基础上联合应用丁苯酞),每组41例。观察对比两组神经功能缺损程度、生活自理能力、临床疗效、血清指标、不良反应发生率及生活质量评分。结果:治疗后两组美国国立卫生研究院卒中量表(national institutes of health stroke scale,NIHSS)评分较治疗前均降低,日常生活活动能力量表(activities of daily living,ADL)、健康调查简易量表(SF-36)评分较治疗前均升高,且观察组均优于对照组,差异均有统计学意义(P<0.05);观察组临床总有效率高于对照组,差异有统计学意义(P<0.05);两组不良反应发生率对比,差异无统计学意义(P>0.05);治疗后两组脑钠肽(brain natriuretic peptide,BNP)、同型半胱氨酸(homocysteine,Hcy)、C反应蛋白(C reactive protein,CRP)水平均较治疗前降低,且观察组均低于对照组,差异均有统计学意义(P<0.05)。结论:ACI患者应用rt-PA静脉溶栓联合丁苯酞治疗,临床效果确切,且安全性高,可促进神经功能恢复,改善预后。
