ABSTRACT Objective:To observe the effects of pipecuronium and its affection on the cardiovascular system. Methods:Thirty ASAⅠ~Ⅱ abdominal surgery patients were selected and the general anesthesia were inducted with midazolam,fentanyl,propofol and pipecuronium 0.1mg/kg for induction,and isoflurance,propofol and fentanyl were used for maintainace. The MAP,HR,SpO2 and the degree of muscle relaxation (TOF measurement) were monitored continously during operation. The onset timing and the effects on the HR and MAP of pipecu-ronium were recorded. When Tl/Tc recovered to 25% of the control value(TC), a bolus of pipecuronium 2 mg was given as to maintain the muscle relaxation. At the end of operation, when Tl/Tc=20%~30%, neostigmine 2mg and atropine 0.5~1.0mg were given as to reverse the remained effect of pipecuronium,and the reverse sensitivity of pipecuronium(the timing of Tl/Tc recovered from 20%~30% to 75%)were observed. Results:The onset timing of pipecuronium 0.1 mg/kg was 166.6±24.7s,the timing of Tl to 25% recovery(clinical effectiveness timing) was 127.8±22.7min. After the administer of neostigmine, the timing of Tl/Tc to 75% recovery in group A(n=19, who received only once pipecuronium) was 9.3±2.6min,and in group B(n=11,who received another bolus pipecuronium 2mg during operation) was 8.2±2.7min. There were no significant difference between the two groups(P>0.05). The HR before using pipecuronium 0.1mg/kg was 78.9±11.8bpm,and were 78.9±11.8bpm,77.3±10.1bpm and 76.7±8.7bmp in 3min, 5min and 10min later respeatively there were no significant difference(P>0.05). The MAP before using pipecuronium 0.1mg/kg was 91.7±14.9mmHg,and were 84.4±11.6mmHg, 86.9±12.9mmHg and 88.9±11.0mmHg in 3min, 5min and 10min later separatively,there were no significant difference(P>0.05). Conclusions:Pipecuronium is a long-acting and powerful muscle relaxant with less affection on hemodynamics, its relaxation effect can be reversed effectively by the neostigmine. However,the efficacy of pipecuronium exists significant individual difference. Key words:Pipecuronium; Hemodynamics; Train of four;Neostigmine |
