Abstract
Purpose: Smooth removal of the tracheal tube post-laparoscopic surgery is crucial. Dexmedetomidine suppresses airway reflexes and mitigates stress responses. This study sought to assess the effect of dexmedetomidine nasal spray on extubation-related stress response and delayed extubation after laparoscopic surgery.
Patients and methods: This study involved 124 patients scheduled for laparoscopic surgery, who were randomly allocated to one of two groups: the dexmedetomidine nasal spray group (Group D, n=62) and the control group (Group C, n=62). 30 min before the end of the surgery, Group D was administered 100 μg of the dexmedetomidine nasal spray, while Group C was given an equivalent volume of normal saline nasal spray. Extubation events and extubation time were documented. Hemodynamic data, Ramsay sedation scale (RSS), NRS scores, postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV), and total recovery time were evaluated during medication administration and the subsequent postoperative recovery period.
Results: The rate of smooth tracheal extubation was significantly higher in Group D than in Group C (93.5% vs 64.5%, p < 0.001). Extubation time was markedly reduced in Group D compared to Group C (p = 0.045). Hemodynamic characteristics were comparable across the two groups, but MAP was higher in Group C at 1 and 10 min after extubation (p < 0.05), and HR was higher at 1 and 3 min after extubation (p < 0.05). More favorable sedation was achieved in Group D at 30 min postoperatively (p = 0.025). No significant changes were observed in postoperative PO2 and PCO2, NRS pain score, and the incidence of PONV between the groups.
Conclusion: Dexmedetomidine nasal spray safely and effectively ameliorated extubation-related stress response following laparoscopic surgery, resulting in smoother extubation. Furthermore, it facilitated the maintenance of hemodynamic stability, shortened extubation time, and provided better postoperative sedation.
期刊介绍:
Therapeutics and Clinical Risk Management is an international, peer-reviewed journal of clinical therapeutics and risk management, focusing on concise rapid reporting of clinical studies in all therapeutic areas, outcomes, safety, and programs for the effective, safe, and sustained use of medicines, therapeutic and surgical interventions in all clinical areas.
The journal welcomes submissions covering original research, clinical and epidemiological studies, reviews, guidelines, expert opinion and commentary. The journal will consider case reports but only if they make a valuable and original contribution to the literature.
As of 18th March 2019, Therapeutics and Clinical Risk Management will no longer consider meta-analyses for publication.
The journal does not accept study protocols, animal-based or cell line-based studies.
