Effect of intravenous inhalational anesthesia combined with dexmedetomidine on postoperative agitation and gastrointestinal function in patients with appendicitis
Objective:To investigate the impact of intravenous inhalational anesthesia combined with dexmedetomidine on postoperative agitation and gastrointestinal function in patients with appendicitis.Methods:A total of 68 patients who received laparoscopic appendectomy in Shangqiu Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine from May 2021 to August 2023 were selected as the study objects,and were randomly divided into control group and observation group in a 1:1 ratio.The control group received intravenous inhalational anesthesia,while the observation group received intravenous inhalational anesthesia combined with dexmedetomidine.Anesthesia revival index,postoperative Riker sedation and agitation score,gastrointestinal function and the incidence of adverse reactions were compared between the two groups.Results:Postoperative revival time,removal time of the laryngeal mask,postoperative Riker sedation and agitation score,recovery time of bowel sounds,exhaust time and defecation time in the observation group were significantly better than those in the control group(P<0.05).The incidence of adverse reactions in the observation group was lower than that in the control group,but the difference was not statistically significant(P>0.05).Conclusion:The combination of intravenous inhalational anesthesia and dexmedetomidine in laparoscopic surgery for the patients with acute suppurative appendicitis is not only conducive to rapid postoperative revival and gastrointestinal function recovery,but also can reduce the incidence of postoperative agitation and adverse reactions,and ensure the surgical treatment effect and the prognosis of patients.
