Abstract:Objective To investigate the effects of low-dose etomidate combined with propofol as a means of general anesthesia induction and observe the changes of hemodynamics, the depth of anesthesia and adverse reactions. Methods Ninety patients scheduled for general anesthesia in our hospital between October 2018 and February 2020 were enrolled. These patients were randomly divided into three groups, with 30 patients in each. The methods of anesthesia induction included propofol 2.0 mg/kg in group A, etomidate 0.3 mg/kg in group B, and etomidate 0.075 mg/kg + propofol 1.0 mg/kg in group C. MAP, HR, BIS were measured respectively before induction (T0), before intubation(T1), and 1,3 and 5 minutes (T2-4) after intubation. Such adverse reactions as injection pain, myoclonus, hypertension, hypotension, and BIS<30 in each group were recorded. Results MAP in group C was higher than in group A at T1-4, but was lower than in group B at T2 (P<0.05). HR was lower in group C than in group B at T2 (P<0.05), BIS in group C was lower than in group A at T2-4, but was higher than in group B at T2 and T4(P<0.05). The incidence of injection pain and hypotension was lower in group C than in group A(0.0% vs. 36.7%,3.3% vs. 33.3%, P<0.05), so was the incidence of myoclonus(3.3% vs. 66.7%, P<0.05). The incidence of hypertension and BIS<30 was lower in group C than in group A and B(3.3% vs. 40.0%、70.0%,0.0% vs. 30.0%、60.0%, P<0.05). Conclusions After injection of etomidate for general anesthesia induction, propofol injected prior to tracheal intubation is a better agent for general anesthesia induction as evidenced by the stability of hemodynamics and the depth of anesthesia as well as lower incidence of adverse reactions.
