BMC Anesthesiol 2024; 24:194. [PMID: 38816731 PMCID: PMC11138079 DOI: 10.1186/s12871-024-02563-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/16/2024] [Accepted: 05/14/2024] [Indexed: 06/01/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Nasal surgeries, addressing anatomical variations for form and function, require careful anesthesia administration, including dexmedetomidine and remifentanil. This meta-analysis evaluates their safety and efficacy variations in nasal surgeries, emphasizing patient comfort and optimal outcomes. METHODS Four electronic databases (PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, and CINAHL Complete) were searched for records in English. Studies that measure the effect of dexmedetomidine versus remifentanil on patients underwent nasal surgery were included. The Cochrane Collaboration's tool was used to assess the quality of the included studies. A random-effect model was preferred and statistical analysis was performed by Stata software version 17. RESULTS Out of an initial pool of 63 articles, five studies were selected for this analysis. All of these chosen studies were Randomized Controlled Trials (RCTs). The meta-analysis involved a total of 302 participants, with 152 in the remifentanil group and 150 in the dexmedetomidine group. The analysis aimed to compare the effects of Dexmedetomidine and Remifentanil on heart rate (HR) and mean arterial pressure (MAP) during surgery. Both groups exhibited similar MAP and HR, with the exception of a slightly lower HR in the remifentanil group at the 15th minute of surgery (Standardized Mean Difference: -0.24 [-0.83, 0.34]). Furthermore, when evaluating the impact of these medications on post-surgery outcomes, including pain levels, the use of pain relief medications, patient-surgeon satisfaction, agitation scores, and recovery time, no significant differences were observed between the two medications in any of these aspects. CONCLUSION In summary, the study compared Dexmedetomidine and Remifentanil in nasal surgeries anesthesia. No significant differences were found in heart rate, blood pressure, satisfaction, pain, agitation, or recovery time. The study had limitations, and future research should establish standardized protocols and consider various surgical factors.

Association of chronic poststernotomy pain and health-related quality of life: a prospective cohort study. Can J Anaesth 2024; 71:579-589. [PMID: 38424390 DOI: 10.1007/s12630-024-02706-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/16/2023] [Revised: 10/30/2023] [Accepted: 11/09/2023] [Indexed: 03/02/2024] Open
Abstract
PURPOSE Chronic poststernotomy pain (CPSP) after cardiac surgery is multifactorial and impacts patient recovery. We aimed to evaluate the association between CPSP severity and health-related quality of life at six months after cardiac surgery. METHODS This was a single-centre prospective cohort study of patients who underwent cardiac surgery with median sternotomy between September 2020 and March 2021. Telephone interviews were conducted at six and 12 months postoperatively using the Short Form McGill Pain Questionnaire and the EQ-5D-5L. Strength of correlation was described using Spearman's correlation coefficient. Multivariable regression analysis was used to account for confounding variables. RESULTS A total of 252 patients responded to the six-month interview (response rate, 65%). The mean (standard deviation) age of respondents was 65 (13) yr. Twenty-nine percent of respondents (72/252) reported CPSP at six months, and 14% (41/252) reported more than mild pain (score ≥ 2/5). At 12 months, of the 89% (64/72) patients who responded, 47% (30/64) still reported pain. The strength of the correlation between pain scores and EQ-5D-5L was weak (Spearman's correlation coefficient, -0.3). Risk factors for CPSP at six months included higher pain score on postoperative day 1, history of chronic pain prior to surgery, and history of depression. Intraoperative infusion of dexmedetomidine or ketamine was associated with a reduced risk of CPSP at six months. CONCLUSION Chronic poststernotomy pain still affects patient recovery at six and 12 months after cardiac surgery. The severity of that pain is poorly correlated with patients' quality of life.

Le JM, Morlandt AB, Patel K, Bourne G, Seri C, Ying YP. Is the Use of Dexmedetomidine Upon Emergence From Anesthesia Associated With Neck Hematoma Formation Following Head and Neck Microvascular Reconstruction? J Oral Maxillofac Surg 2024:S0278-2391(24)00269-6. [PMID: 38718840 DOI: 10.1016/j.joms.2024.04.009] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/15/2023] [Revised: 04/08/2024] [Accepted: 04/13/2024] [Indexed: 05/26/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Dexmedetomidine (DEX) is a highly selective alpha-2-receptor agonist, and its use has not been well studied in major microvascular reconstructive surgery of the head and neck. PURPOSE The purpose is to measure the association between DEX and neck hematoma formation in subjects undergoing head and neck microvascular reconstructive surgery. STUDY DESIGN, SETTING, SAMPLE The investigators implemented a retrospective cohort study on subjects undergoing microvascular head and neck reconstruction for benign and malignant pathology at the University of Alabama at Birmingham from 2014 to 2021. Patients with unresectable tumors were excluded. PREDICTOR VARIABLE The predictor variable was the intraoperative use of DEX upon emergence from general anesthesia. Subjects received standard anesthetic drugs and DEX, while control subjects received only standard anesthetic drugs. MAIN OUTCOME VARIABLE(S) The primary outcome was postoperative neck hematoma formation necessitating a return to the operating theater. The secondary outcome was the length of stay (LOS). COVARIATES The covariates were demographic, operative, and oral morphine equivalents of anesthesia drugs. ANALYSES Bivariate analyses were performed using the Student's t-test and the χ2 test for continuous and categorical variables. Multivariate regression analyses were conducted to assess for associations between DEX and the outcomes adjusted for confounding variables when present. P values of < .05 were regarded as statistically significant. RESULTS A total of 297 subjects (mean age, 59.6 years, and standard deviation [SD], 14.9) with 61.6% male received DEX, and 304 subjects (mean age, 58.9 years, and SD, 14.6) with 60.2% male served as controls (P > .5). A total of 11 postoperative neck hematoma occurred in the control group when compared to 2 in the DEX (relative risk = 5.4, 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.2 to 24, P = .02). The mean LOS was 7.7 (SD, 4.3) and 9.4 (SD, 8.1) for the DEX and control groups (95% CI, 0.7 to 2.8, P < .01). After adjusting for tobacco history, tracheostomy, and neck dissection, DEX (Beta coefficient (B) = -1.7, 95% CI -2.7 to -0.7, P < .01) and neck dissection (B = 2.2, 95% CI 1.0 to 3.4, P < .01) were statistically associated with LOS. CONCLUSION AND RELEVANCE The use of intraoperative DEX upon emergence from general anesthesia was associated with lower postoperative neck hematoma formation and a shorter length of stay following microvascular head and neck reconstruction.

Abstract
Abstract
Background Dexmedetomidine, an alpha-2 agonist, has been widely used as an anesthetic adjunct for transsphenoidal pituitary resection. However, there is no consensus on the appropriate infusion dosage. This study aimed to compare the effects of low (0.2 mcg/kg/h) and intermediate (0.5 mcg/kg/h) dexmedetomidine infusions during anesthetic maintenance on blood loss, hemodynamics, and operating time.
Methods A randomized controlled trial involving two centers was conducted. Between December 2015 and November 2019, 80 patients (40 in each group) who underwent elective transsphenoidal pituitary tumor resection were recruited. Dexmedetomidine was administered to group I at a loading dose of 0.5 mcg/kg, followed by 0.2 mcg/kg/h, and to group II at the same loading dose, followed by 0.5 mcg/kg/h. Comparative analyses were performed using the Student's t-test, repeated-measures analysis of variance, and Mann–Whitney U test; p-values < 0.05 were considered statistically significant.
Results Eighty patients were analyzed. Patient demographics were comparable. The difference in intraoperative blood loss between both groups (320 [220–525] vs. 250 [100-487] mL, p = 0.070) was not statistically significant. There were no differences in blood pressure or heart rate between the groups. In group II, the procedure took significantly less time (179 vs. 142 minutes, p = 0.018), with more episodes of transient hypotension (p = 0.034).
Conclusion When maintaining anesthesia for transsphenoidal pituitary resection, dexmedetomidine infusions of 0.2 and 0.5 mcg/kg/h showed the same effect on blood loss and hemodynamics; however, significantly more episodes of transient hypotension and shorter operating times were noted with the latter.

Abstract
This meta-analysis aimed to analyze and compare the efficacy and safety of remifentanil and dexmedetomidine applied respectively for controlled hypotension under general anesthesia. We searched the Cochrane Library, PubMed, EMBASE, Web of Science, CNKI, SinoMed, Wanfang, and VIP databases, as well as dissertations and conference papers, to obtain randomized controlled trials comparing remifentanil and dexmedetomidine applied respectively for controlled hypotension before August 23, 2021. The primary outcomes included hemodynamic profiles, surgical field score, and blood loss. Extubation time, sedation and pain score at the PACU, and perioperative adverse events were the secondary outcomes. Nine randomized controlled trials with 543 patients (272 in the dexmedetomidine group and 271 in the remifentanil group) were eventually included. This meta-analysis indicated no significant difference between dexmedetomidine and remifentanil in terms of surgical field score, blood loss, minimum values of mean arterial pressure (MD 0.24 with 95% CI [-1.65, 2.13], P = 0.80, I2 = 66%) and heart rate (MD 0.42 [-1.33, 2.17], P = 0.64, I2 = 40%), sedation scores at the PACU (MD -0.09 [-0.69, 0.50], P = 0.76, I2 = 92%), and incidence of bradycardia (OR 2.24 [0.70, 7.15], P = 0.17, I2 = 0%). Compared with remifentanil, dexmedetomidine as the controlled hypotensive agent showed a lower visual analogue score at the PACU (MD -1.01 [-1.25, -0.77], P<0.00001, I2 = 0%) and incidence of shivering (OR 0.22 [0.08, 0.60], P = 0.003, I2 = 0%), nausea, and vomiting (OR 0.34 [0.13, 0.89], P = 0.03, I2 = 0%). However, extubation time was shorter in the remifentanil group (MD 3.34 [0.75, 5.93], P = 0.01, I2 = 90%). In conclusion, dexmedetomidine and remifentanil are both effective in providing satisfactory controlled hypotension and surgical conditions. Dexmedetomidine is better in easing postoperative pain at the PACU and reducing the occurrence of shivering, nausea, and vomiting. Meanwhile, remifentanil is a fast-track anesthesia with a shorter extubation time. Given the limitations of this meta-analysis, further studies are needed for a more definitive comparison of the efficacy and safety of dexmedetomidine and remifentanil.

Abstract
Emergence delirium (ED) is a temporary condition associated with a patient awakening from an anesthetic and/or adjunct agent (e.g., sedatives and analgesics). During the condition, patients risk harming themselves or staff by engaging in dangerous behavior, which may include thrashing, kicking, punching, and attempting to exit the bed/table.
A multidisciplinary team at Veterans Affairs Pittsburgh Healthcare System (VAPHS) developed and implemented a multicomponent intervention to reduce the severity and occurrence of ED. The intervention consists of a training component and 21 clinical components. The 21 clinical components are implemented on a patient-by-patient basis and include routine screening for risk factors, enhanced communication among staff, adjusting the environment, following a specific medication strategy, and application of manual restraint (hands-on). The authors provide 15 online Supplemental Materials (S1–S15) to promote replication of the intervention.
To our knowledge, this is the first manuscript that describes this type of multicomponent intervention in sufficient detail to allow others to replicate it. Following implementation of the intervention at VAPHS, perioperative staff reported that they observed a substantial reduction in the occurrence and severity of ED, ED-related patient and staff injuries, and ED-related loss of intravenous access and airway patency. Despite staff’s reported success of the intervention, rigorous research is needed to evaluate the efficacy of the intervention.

Abstract
Objective The objective of this study is to investigate the effect of dexmedetomidine on postoperative pain and recovery time in obese patients. Methods A total of 100 obese patients with body mass index (BMI) ≥ 30 kg/m2 who underwent laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy under general anesthesia in our hospital from January 2019 to December 2021 were included and assigned into DEX group (dexmedetomidine group) and NS group (normal saline group). The bariatric surgery patients who were given normal saline pump were the NS group (n = 50), and the bariatric surgery patients who were given the dexmedetomidine pump were the DEX group (n = 50). The patients in the DEX group were given continuous intravenous infusion of dexmedetomidine before, during, and after induction of anesthesia at a dose of 0.4 μg. kg-1. h-1, 0.4 μg·kg-1. h-1, 0.2 μg·kg-1. h-1, respectively. The NS group was infused with the same volume of normal saline for the same time. The two groups of patients were treated with the same anesthesia induction and maintenance program. By comparing the operation, anesthesia, postoperative extubation, and recovery time of the two groups of patients, the effect of dexmedetomidine on the postoperative recovery time of obese patients was analyzed. Visual analogue scale (VAS) and adverse reactions were compared to analyze the effect of dexmedetomidine on postoperative pain in obese patients. Results The operation, anesthesia, postoperative extubation, and recovery time of the DEX group were significantly lower than those of the NS group, whereas the VAS and adverse reactions were significantly lower than those in the NS group (P < 0.05). Conclusion An appropriate dose of dexmedetomidine in bariatric surgery for morbidly obese patients can effectively shorten the recovery time and extubation time of patients, reduce postoperative pain and the incidence of adverse reactions, and is worthy of clinical application. Dexmedetomidine 2 μg/kg has promising anesthesia benefits in bariatric surgery of obese patients, can provide favorable analgesia and quality of recovery, help reduce the degree of stress response of patients, and does not increase the risk of adverse events. However, this study has certain limitations, so physicians should tailor the dosage according to the patient's physical condition in clinical practice.

Abstract
Anesthetics and adjunct agents have a long history of being associated with patients engaging in delirious or agitated behavior in a perioperative setting. Prior to this study, few have explored the topic with a focus on safety for both the patient and staff. We explored the Pennsylvania Patient Safety Reporting System (PA-PSRS) database for event reports to identify bouts of delirium/ agitation associated with anesthetics and/or adjunct agents that occurred during the pre-, intra-, or postoperative period. We identified 97 event reports from 63 healthcare facilities over a two-year period. Patients’ ages ranged from 1 to 91 years and 66% of the patients were reported as male. Also, 8% of the delirium/agitation occurred preoperatively, 8% intraoperatively, and 84% postoperatively. Across all three operative periods, 62% of the reports described dangerous/nonviolent behavior and 26% described dangerous/violent behavior. Additionally, 40% of the event reports described one or more patient injuries (e.g., cardiopulmonary arrest, asphyxiation, hematoma, prolapse/dehiscence, progressive ischemia) and 36% of the patients required additional healthcare services or monitoring (e.g., intra- or interfacility transfer, additional surgical procedure). Finally, 54% of the event reports described patient behavior that created an immediate and high risk of staff harm. Overall, the current study provides novel insight into how delirium/agitation has varying safety implications depending on the operative period. We encourage readers to review Table 5, which proposes a four-phase intervention package to prevent, treat, and de-escalate bouts of delirium/agitation.

Abstract
Brachial plexus block commonly used in finger replantation has the advantages of simple operation, small side effects, and stable circulation, but it has inherent problems such as imperfect block range, slow onset of anesthesia, and short maintenance time of anesthesia. In order to explore the reliable clinical anesthesia effect, this paper uses experimental investigation methods to study the effect of dexmedetomidine in clinical surgery of replantation of severed fingers. Moreover, this paper uses comparative test methods, uses statistical methods to process test data, and uses intuitive methods to display test results. Finally, this paper verifies the reliability of dexmedetomidine in replantation of severed finger through comparative analysis and verifies that the anesthesia method proposed in this paper has certain user satisfaction through parameter survey.

Abstract
Objective To analyze the effect of combined application of oxycodone hydrochloride injection and dexmedetomidine in anesthesia for laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) for patients with gallbladder lesions. Method 93 patients with gallbladder lesions in our hospital were divided into 2 groups by the random number table method. 46 patients in the control group applied oxycodone hydrochloride injection in anesthesia, and 47 patients in the observation group applied oxycodone hydrochloride injection combined with dexmedetomidine in anesthesia. Result The T1 and T2 MAP levels in the observation group were lower than those in the control group (P < 0.05), and the difference between T3 and the control group was not significantly significant (P > 0.05). The T1 to T3 HR level in the observation group were lower than those in the control group (P < 0.05). The rate of excessive sedation (10.64%) and sedation inefficiency (12.77%) in the observation group was lower than that in the control group (28.26% and 30.43%), and the rate of satisfactory sedation (76.60%) was higher than that in the control group (41.30%) (P < 0.05). The postoperative awakening, tracheal tube removal, and first anal venting time were shorter in the observation group than in the control group (P < 0.05). The WHO scores of incisional pain at 6, 12, 24, and 48 hours after the operation were lower in the observation group than in the control group (P < 0.05). The T2 SOD level in the observation group was higher than that in the control group, and the ROS and MDA levels were lower than those in the control group (P < 0.05). The incidence of side effects of anesthetic in the observation group was 17.02%, which was not statistically different from the control group of 13.04% (P > 0.05). Conclusion The combined application of oxycodone hydrochloride injection and dexmedetomidine in anesthesia for LC for patients with gallbladder lesions can achieve better sedation and analgesia effect, accelerate postoperative awakening and recovery, and control oxidative stress and fluctuations in signs, without increasing anesthesia-related side effects.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Open living donor hepatectomy (OLDH) is a highly painful procedure. Advanced strategies for enhancing perioperative analgesia and accelerating recovery are needed for patients undergoing OLDH. This study evaluated the effects of intravenous infusion of dexmedetomidine (DEX) during OLDH on postoperative analgesia and recovery. METHODS This prospective, randomised, double-blinded, and placebo-controlled study included 34 patients randomised to a control group (group C) and a DEX group (group D). Utilisation of intravenous patient-controlled analgesia (IV-PCA) pump, pain intensity, and postoperative recovery variables were recorded. Moreover, intraoperative anaesthetic consumption, hemodynamic parameters, and fluid status were also recorded. RESULTS During the first 24 hours after surgery, patients in group D had a lower pain intensity. The cumulative numbers of IV-PCA pump presses and fentanyl consumption within 24 and 48 hours postoperatively in group C were significantly higher than in group D. The time to first IV-PCA attempt was prolonged in group D. In addition, faster flatus passage was observed in group D. Intraoperatively, fewer anaesthetic agents were required in group D. Less fluctuation in hemodynamics and reduced bleeding were also found in group D. CONCLUSIONS The present study revealed that the addition of intravenous infusion of DEX during OLDH provided several benefits in relieving postoperative pain and promoting recovery. Therefore, we concluded that intraoperative DEX infusion may play an important role in enhancing the recovery of patients undergoing OLDH.

[PMID: 33173279 PMCID: PMC7646437 DOI: 10.2147/dddt.s278342] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/23/2020] [Accepted: 10/07/2020] [Indexed: 12/12/2022]
Abstract
Purpose Postoperative acute kidney injury (AKI) is a frequent complication in elderly patients that increases morbidity and mortality. Approximately 1.7 million people die from AKI worldwide every year. Dexmedetomidine (Dex) is often used as an adjunct to multimodal analgesia. Our study investigated whether Dex could safely decrease the incidence of AKI in elderly patients undergoing major joint replacement. Methods A single-center retrospective study was conducted in patients aged >65 years undergoing major joint replacement. Propensity score–matching analysis was used, and a total of 1,006 patients were matched successfully. The primary outcome was the incidence of postoperative AKI. Secondary outcomes included perioperative adverse complications, opioid consumption, time to extubation, and length of hospital stay. Results Among the 1,006 patients included, postoperative AKI occurred in 9.3% (n=94). The Dex group (perioperative Dex infusion) had lower incidence of postoperative AKI than the control group (7.2% vs 11.5%, P=0.017). Compared with the control group, the Dex group had less opioid consumption (P<0.05), reduced time to extubation (P=0.004), and shorter length of hospital stay (P=0.001). The Dex group also showed higher incidence of bradycardia (20.1% vs 15.1%, P=0.038). There were no differences in intraoperative hypotension (19.5% vs 17.5%), postoperative nausea and vomiting (4.2% vs 5.4%), time in PACU (45.0±6.4 vs 45.5±6.2 minutes), or rate of ICU admission (9.7% vs 11.1%) between the Dex group and control group (All P>0.05). Conclusion This retrospective study showed Dex infusion in elderly patients undergoing major joint replacement was associated with lower incidence of postoperative AKI, less opioid consumption, and shorter extubation time and hospital stay. However, the Dex group had higher incidence of bradycardia. We found no statistical differences in other perioperative adverse complications between the groups.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES A systematic review of the literature was conducted to evaluate hypotensive agents in terms of their adverse effects and associations with perioperative morbidity in patients undergoing nasal surgery. METHODS Two authors independently searched databases (Medline, Scopus, and Cochrane databases) up to February 2020 for randomized controlled trials comparing the perioperative administration of a hypotensive agent with a placebo or other agent. The outcomes of interest for this analysis were intraoperative morbidity, operative time, intraoperative bleeding, hypotension, postoperative nausea/vomiting, and postoperative pain. Both a standard pairwise meta-analysis and network meta-analysis were conducted. RESULTS Our analysis was based on 37 trials. Treatment networks consisting of six interventions (placebo, clonidine, dexmedetomidine, beta-blockers, opioids, and nitroglycerine) were defined for the network meta-analysis. Dexmedetomidine resulted in the greatest differences in intraoperative bleeding (-0.971; 95% confidence interval [CI], -1.161 to -0.781), intraoperative fentanyl administration (-3.683; 95% CI, -4.848 to -2.518), and postoperative pain (-2.065; 95% CI, -3.170 to -0.960) compared with placebo. The greatest difference in operative time compared with placebo was achieved with clonidine (-0.699; 95% CI, -0.977 to -0.421). All other agents also had beneficial effects on the measured outcomes. Dexmedetomidine was less likely than other agents to cause adverse effects. CONCLUSION This study demonstrated the superiority of the systemic use of dexmedetomidine as a perioperative hypotensive agent compared with the other five tested agents. However, the other agents were also superior to placebo in improving operative time, intraoperative bleeding, and postoperative pain.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To assess the methodological quality of intervention-focused systematic reviews (SRs) and meta-analyses (MAs) published in high-impact otolaryngology journals. DATA SOURCES Ovid Medline, Embase, and Cochrane Library. REVIEW METHODS A comprehensive search was performed for SR and MA citations from 2012 to 2017 in the 10 highest impact factor otolaryngology journals. Abstracts were screened to identify published manuscripts in which the authors indicated clearly that they were performing an SR or MA. Applying a modified typology of reviews, 4 reviewers characterized the review type as SR, MA, or another review type. A simplified version of the AMSTAR 2 (A MeaSurement Tool to Assess systematic Reviews 2) tool was used to assess the reporting and methodological quality of the SRs and MAs that were focused on interventions. RESULTS Search and abstract screening generated 499 manuscripts that identified themselves as performing an SR or MA. A substantial number (85/499, 17%) were review types other than SRs or MAs, including 34 (7%) that were literature reviews. In total, 236 SRs and MAs focused on interventions. Over 50% of these SRs and MAs had weaknesses in at least 3 of the 16 items in the AMSTAR 2, and over 40% had weaknesses in at least 2 of the 7 critical domains. Ninety-nine percent of SRs and MAs provided critically low confidence in the results of the reviews. CONCLUSION Intervention-focused SRs and MAs published in high-impact otolaryngology journals have important methodological limitations that diminish confidence in the results of these reviews.

Abstract
Dexmedetomidine is a selective α2 adrenoreceptor agonist. The drug has a set of useful properties due to wide prevalence of the receptors in a body. The article presents review of the literature of using dexmedetomidine in anesthetic practice of various surgery fields which positive results may be extrapolated to dentistry and maxillofacial surgery to solve important anesthesiologic problems. Inclusion of the drug in routine oral and maxillofacial surgery anesthesia can bring a significant amount of benefits: safe sedation for dental interventions, sedation for compromised airways without respiratory depression, improvement of intraoperative and postoperative analgesia, reduction of postoperative nausea, vomiting and postoperative shivering incidence, nephroprotection and stability of hypotensive hemodynamics, decrease of intraoperative blood loss. Thus, the dexmedetomidine may be a useful agent for anesthesia in oral and maxillofacial surgery that increases anesthesia safety and quality of medical care.

Abstract
Objective The aim of the current meta-analysis was to assess the effect of dexmedetomidine on emergence agitation (EA) and the recovery outcomes after general anesthesia in adults. Methods We searched the PubMed, the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, Embase, Web of Science and clinicaltrials.gov for relevant randomized controlled trials (RCTs) investigating the effects of dexmedetomidine on the EA in adults after general anesthesia compared with placebo. The primary outcome was the incidence of EA. Secondary outcomes included other recovery outcomes after general anesthesia. Results Twelve RCTs (842 participants) met the eligibility criteria. A conventional random-effects meta-analysis demonstrated that peri-operative intravenous dexmedetomidine could be effective for the prevention of EA [risk ratio (RR) 0.49, Trial Sequential Analysis (TSA)-adjusted 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.35–0.68, P<0.00001]. In addition, the TSA indicated that the meta-analysis for the incidence of EA reached the required information size (370). Lower number of patients receiving dexmedetomidine required analgesia (P=0.0009). Extubation time was longer (P=0.03) and hypotension (P=0.03) was more common with dexmedetomidine. Moreover, no difference was found in the other outcomes. Conclusion Dexmedetomidine was shown to effectively decrease the incidence of EA and to reduce postoperative analgesic requirements. Yet, other recovery outcomes including extubation time, length of PACU stay, postoperative residual sedation, hypotension, bradycardia as well as postoperative nausea and vomiting provided no data that could be used to form final conclusions.

Abstract
Background Nasal bone fracture is the most common type of facial fracture, and the high incidence of severe emergence agitation occurring after closed reduction of the nasal bone fracture can be challenging to manage. The purpose of this trial was to evaluate whether pre-operative administration of dexmedetomidine is effective in reducing the incidence and severity of emergence agitation in adults undergoing closed reduction of nasal bone fractures. Methods In this randomized controlled trial, 90 patients who were scheduled to undergo closed reduction of a nasal bone fracture were prospectively included and were randomly assigned to either the control group (n = 45; 0.9% saline infusion) or the dexmedetomidine group (n = 45; 1 μ/kg over 10 min, pre-operatively). The primary endpoint was Aono’s four-point scale scores after anesthesia. The recovery time and numeric rating scale score were assessed as secondary endpoints. Results Aono’s four-point scale scores were lower in the dexmedetomidine group than in the control group (median: 1 [1] vs. 1 [1, 2], 95% confidence interval of difference: 0.01 to 0.02, P = 0.02). The number, severity, and duration of agitation episodes were significantly lower in the dexmedetomidine group than in the control group. Furthermore, the number of patients exhibiting intraoperative movement was lower in the dexmedetomidine group. Conclusions Pre-operative administration of dexmedetomidine demonstrated several significant benefits, such as a lower incidence of emergence agitation, reduced agitation severity, and a shorter duration of agitation. Additionally, we observed more stable maintenance of intraoperative anesthesia with less movement during the surgery. Trial registration Identifier: KCT0000585 (registration date: 12–19- 2012).

Abstract
Purpose This retrospective cohort study aimed to investigate the association between intraoperative dexmedetomidine infusion and emergence agitation (EA), and recovery profiles after lung surgery in adult patients. It was hypothesized that dexmedetomidine was associated with reduced EA and improved recovery profiles. Patients and methods A single-center chart review was conducted on elective lung surgeries in adults between January and December 2016. The primary outcome was the incidence of EA in postanesthesia care units (PACUs). The secondary outcomes included rescue analgesia, shivering, time to extubation, residual sedation, postoperative pulmonary events, duration of PACU stay, length of hospital stay, and intraoperative hemodynamic changes. Univariate and multivariate regression analyses were used to analyze data. Results Among 2,468 patients, 814 received an intraoperative dexmedetomidine infusion. Intraoperative dexmedetomidine infusion was associated with a lower incidence of EA (10.9% vs 15.0%; adjusted OR, 0.67; 95% CI, 0.51–0.87; P=0.003), rescue analgesia (7.6% vs 12.2%; adjusted OR, 0.63; 95% CI, 0.47–0.86; P=0.003), shivering (4.2% vs 6.6%; adjusted OR, 0.58; 95% CI, 0.38–0.88; P=0.010), and intraoperative bradycardia (18.6% vs 12.6%; adjusted OR, 1.51; 95% CI, 1.19–1.92; P=0.001). No differences were observed in residual sedation, duration of PACU stay, postoperative pulmonary events, and length of hospital stay between the groups. Conclusion This retrospective study suggested that intraoperative dexmedetomidine infusion was associated with a lower incidence of EA, rescue analgesia, and shivering in adults after lung surgery. Intraoperative bradycardia was the main side effect.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Tranexamic acid might help control bleeding during surgery because of antifibrinolytic characteristics. We aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of systemic tranexamic acid compared to control in blood loss, operative time, and surgical field and incidence of postoperative emesis and thromboembolism in endoscopic sinus surgery. METHODS Two authors independently searched six databases (PubMed, SCOPUS, Embase, the Web of Science, Google Scholar, and the Cochrane database) from their inception to July 2018. The included studies compared perioperative tranexamic acid administration (treatment group) with a placebo, and the outcomes of interest were intraoperative morbidities, including surgical time, operative bleeding, and hypotension; postoperative morbidities such as nausea and vomiting; and coagulation profiles. RESULTS Seven studies comprising 562 participants were reviewed in this study. Operative time (standardized mean difference (SMD) = -0.60; 95% confidence interval (CI)[-0.93, -0.29]) and intraoperative blood loss (SMD = -0.66; 95% CI [-0.86, -0.46]) were statistically lower in the treatment group than placebo group; and the quality of the surgical field (SMD = -0.80; 95% CI [-1.12; -0.48]) and surgeon satisfaction (SMD = 1.74; 95% CI [1.36; 2.13]) were statistically higher in the treatment group than the placebo group. By contrast, there were no significant differences in the hemodynamic (SMD = 0.08; 95% CI [-0.20; 0.37]) and coagulation profiles (SMD = -0.18; 95% CI [-0.42, 0.07]) of the two groups. Additionally, tranexamic acid had no significant effect on emetic or thrombotic events compared to placebo. CONCLUSION This meta-analysis showed that the systemic administration of tranexamic acid could decrease operative time and blood loss intraoperatively, increasing the satisfaction of surgeons. It did not provoke intraoperative hemodynamic instability, postoperative emetic events, or coagulation profile abnormality. Only a small number of studies were enrolled, so further trials are needed to confirm the results of this study. Laryngoscope, 129:800-807, 2019.
