title: Effect of the intraoperative wake-up test in sevoflurane-sufentanil combined anesthesia during adolescent idiopathic scoliosis surgery: a randomized study.
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To investigate the effect of the intraoperative wake-up test on sevoflurane-sufentanil anesthesia for adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) surgery.
  
  
  METHODS
  Randomized, double-blind, parallel trial.
  
  
  METHODS
  Operating room.
  
  
  METHODS
  30 ASA physical status 1 patients, aged 13 to 20 years, scheduled for AIS surgery.
  
  
  METHODS
  Patients were randomized to two groups: Group W patients received sevoflurane-sufentanil combined anesthesia and underwent the intraoperative wake-up test; Group NW received sevoflurane-sufentanil combined anesthesia without the wake-up test. Anesthesia was induced with an intravenous (IV) injection of midazolam, propofol, and sufentanil and maintained with sevoflurane inhalation, a target-controlled infusion (TCI) of sufentanil, and IV infusion of cisatracurium besylate.
  
  
  METHODS
  The primary outcome was postoperative delirium. Secondary outcomes were duration of surgery, duration of anesthesia, intraoperative blood loss and transfusion, exposure of drugs administered, time to eye opening, extubation, and consciousness.
  
  
  RESULTS
  Postoperative delirium occurred in one patient from each group (P > 0.05). There were no significant differences between the two groups in duration of surgery (322 ± 65 min vs 336 ± 72 min), duration of anesthesia (356 ± 76 min vs 368 ± 81 min), intraoperative blood loss (1847 ± 423 mL vs 1901 ± 451 mL) and transfusion (1663 ± 398 mL vs 1649 ± 382 mL), average exposure of drugs (72 ± 13 mg vs 75 ± 15 mg for propofol, 116 ± 28 μg vs 109 ± 25 μg for sufentanil, and 22 ± 5 vs 23 ± 4 mg for cisatracurium), time to eye opening (4.7 ± 1.5 min vs 4.8 ± 1.4 min), extubation (7.5 ± 2.0 min vs 7.3 ± 2.2 min), and consciousness (8.9 ± 1.8 min vs 9.1 ± 2.1 min) (all P > 0.05).
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  Sevoflurane-sufentanil combined anesthesia provides hemodynamic stability and rapid recovery from AIS surgery. There is no correlation between the intraoperative wake-up test and postoperative delirium after sevoflurane-sufentanil combined anesthesia.
