[Recovery after anesthesia with propofol in otorhinolaryngologic surgery of brief duration].
This study was designed to assess recovery from total intravenous anaesthesia with propofol for short ENT procedures. Twenty-six patients (ASA I and II) were assigned to two groups of thirteen: one breathed air (Laser laryngeal microsurgery), the second N2O-O2 (FIO2 : 0.5) (various ENT procedures). The induction sequence was exactly the same for both groups: oral premedication with 10 mg diazepam one hour before surgery, I mg pancuronium bromide, 2 micrograms X kg-1 fentanyl, denitrogenation within 3 min, after which propofol was delivered (2.5 mg X kg-1). When the eye-lash reflex had disappeared (time recorded), 1.5 mg X kg-1 suxamethonium was given and laryngotracheal intubation carried out. A continuous infusion of propofol (9 mg X kg-1 X h-1) was started. Surgery began 5 +/- 2 min after the start of propofol infusion. The durations of anaesthesia, surgery and propofol infusion were similar in both groups. To have good surgical conditions, it was necessary to give repeated doses of propofol for 15 patients. Thus, the total dose of propofol was significatively different between the two groups: 24.5 +/- 6.7 mg X kg-1 X h-1 in group "air" versus 16 +/- 3.6 mg X kg-1 X h-1 in group "N2O-O2" (p less than 0.001). Extubation occurred within 16 +/- 8 min in group "air", being more rapid in group "N2O-O2" (11 +/- 9 min; no significant difference). Recovery was assessed with two psychomotor tests: choice reaction time (CRT) and tracing test (TT).(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
