Comparison of Desflurane Balanced Anesthesia Versus TIVA-TCI (Total IntraVenous Anesthesia-Target Controlled Infusion) in Patients Undergoing Ophthalmic Ambulatory Surgery: A Single Center, Prospective, Randomized, Controlled Study
Comparison of Desflurane Balanced Anesthesia Versus TIVA-TCI (Total IntraVenous Anesthesia-Target Controlled Infusion) in Patients Undergoing Ophthalmic Ambulatory Surgery: A Single Center, Prospective, Randomized, Controlled Study
This is a single-center, randomized, prospective research which aims to investigate the advantages and disadvantages between desflurane balanced anesthesia and TIVA-TCI with propofol in ophthalmic ambulatory surgery, so that to evaluate a better anesthesia method in ophthalmic surgery through a large sample clinical study.
Desflurane balanced anesthesia and TIVA-TCI(Total IntraVenous Anesthesia-Target Controlled Infusion) are commonly used in ophthalmic ambulatory surgery, however, there is no clear evidence to discriminate the advantages and disadvantages between them. This study is designed to evaluate a better anesthetic method in ophthalmic surgery through a clinical study. This is a single center, randomized, prospective study. 200 patients with American Society of Anesthesiologists'(ASA) physical status 1 to 2, aged 18 to 60, scheduled for elective strabismus ambulatory and in whom a LMA is indicated for anesthesia are recruited. Enrolled patients are randomly assigned into 2 groups: group TIVA (TIVA-TCI with propofol) and group Des (Desflurane).In group TIVA, anesthesia is maintained with propofol and remifentanil. Propofol is continuously administered via a target-controlled infusion (TCI) pump intraoperatively. In group Des, anesthesia is maintained with desflurane.All patients received anaesthesia depth monitoring with bispectral index (BIS). The dose of anesthetic is adjusted to maintained the BIS value within 40 to 60. At the end of the surgery, inhalant anesthetic or infused propofol and remifentanil are discontinued. LMA is removed when patient regains consciousness with spontaneous respiration. Patients are then transferred to the post anesthetic care unit (PACU) for postoperative follow-up. The primary outcome is awake time, the secondary outcomes include discharge time, the stay time in PACU, time of off-bed, Riker sedation agitation score (SAS), time of PADSS>9, NRS score when leaving PACU, incidence of various complications (postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV), emergence agitation, etc), as well as anesthesia cost. All patients are followed up by calling in one day after the surgery.
