既保留了针麻优越性及生理状态的平Objective: To conduct clinical research on the anesthetic approach and to observe the effect of acupuncture integrated with small dose of epidural anesthetic for cholecystectomy.Methods: 194 cases of cholecystectomy in 3 groups
Group A (acupuncture + epidural anesthesia group
AEA
n=66)
Group B (electrode + epidural anesthesia
EEA
n=63)
and Group C (control
n=65) were observed using single blind method. The operating approach of the epidural anesthesic
the type and concentration of local anesthetic (1.5% lidocaine) and administration procedure of the drug in the 3 groups are the same. The anesthetic blocking plane is T 4~11 . Results: In group A and B
the analgesic effect of the anesthesia is perfect
the muscular relaxation satisfactory
the retraction reaction mild
and the patients remain quiet during the operation. The rates of Grade I in Group A and Group B are respectively 75.75% and 60.32%
being significantly higher than 13.85% of Group C (P<0.001). The first dose of drug administration
the every hour dose
the dose of each case for epidural anesthesia in Group C are all higher than those of Group A and Group B. The every hour dose in Group C is higher than those of Group A and Group B by 36.23% and 33.75% respectively (P<0.001). The monitor of the heart rate (HR)
mean blood pressure (MAP)
respiratory rate (RR)
tidal volume (TV)
minute volume (MV)
blood oxygen saturation level (SPO 2) and electrocardiogram (ECG) denotes that the vital signs keep stable basically during operation under AEA or EEA
patients in all the groups safely pass the operation. After AEA and EEA
the blood catecholamine concentration decreases and the anesthesia effect is fine. The measurement of T lymphocyte subgroup displays that acupuncture can also strengthen the cellular immunity. The facts suggest that AEA and EEA supplement the shortcomings of incomplete analgesia
unsatisfied muscular relaxation and obvious retraction response of acupuncture alone
not only remains the advantage of acupuncture anesthesia in keeping physiological balance
but also meets the anesthetic requirement for cholecystecotomy. Conclusion: AEA and EEA can be used as one of the anesthetic approaches for cholecystectomy.
