J Perianesth Nurs 2024:S1089-9472(24)00111-4. [PMID: 39023477 DOI: 10.1016/j.jopan.2024.03.015] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/16/2023] [Revised: 03/18/2024] [Accepted: 03/18/2024] [Indexed: 07/20/2024]
Abstract
PURPOSE The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of remifentanil pretreatment on sufentanil-induced cough during general anesthesia induction. DESIGN This experimental research was conducted as a single-center, randomized, parallel-group trial. METHODS A total of 120 patients scheduled for elective surgery were equally randomized into two groups (remifentanil and control). The incidence and severity of coughing in both groups were recorded after sufentanil administration during general anesthesia induction. The mean arterial pressure, heart rate, and pulse oxygen saturation were recorded at T1 (before the injection of remifentanil or normal saline), T2 (1 minute after remifentanil administration), T3 (before intubation), and T4 (1 minute after intubation). Additionally, the incidences of adverse events, including dizziness, nausea, apnea, truncal rigidity, bradycardia, or other adverse effects were also recorded. FINDINGS The incidence of sufentanil-induced cough in the remifentanil group was significantly decreased when compared with the control group (5.0% vs 35.0%, respectively; P < .001). No statistical differences were found in mean arterial pressure, heart rate, pulse oxygen saturation, and the incidences of other side effects between the two groups at T1, T2, T3, and T4 (P > .05). CONCLUSIONS Pretreatment with remifentanil at a dose of 0.5 mcg/kg can effectively and safely suppress the incidence and severity of sufentanil-induced coughing, providing a reference for medication during general anesthesia induction.

Abstract
The traditional use of the M. charantia L. plant to treat coughs, fever and expectoration is widely practiced in different cultures, but its effectiveness and safety still require scientific investigation. This study sought to perform a chemical analysis and evaluate the antitussive, expectorant and antipyretic effects of the ethanolic extract of M. charantia leaves (EEMc) in rats and mice. The EEMc was subjected to chemical analysis by HPLC-DAD, revealing the presence of the flavonoids astragalin and isoquercetin. Acute oral toxicity in mice did not result in deaths, although changes in liver weight and stool consistency were observed. EEMc demonstrated an antitussive effect at doses of 100 and 300 mg/kg in mice subjected to cough induction by citric acid nebulization. Furthermore, it showed expectorant activity at a dose of 300 mg/kg, assessed based on the elimination of the phenol red marker in bronchoalveolar lavage. In the evaluation of antipyretic activity in rats, fever induced by Saccharomyces cerevisiae was reduced at all doses tested during the first hour after treatment. This innovative study identified the presence of astragalin and isoquercetin in EEMc and indicated that the extract has antitussive, expectorant and antipyretic properties. Therefore, EEMc presents itself as a promising option in herbal medicine for the treatment of respiratory symptoms and fever.

Abstract
Background Cough is one of the most common complications following intravenous administration of sufentanil during anesthesia induction. The study aimed to investigate the protective effect of alfentanil, afentanyl derivative with short onset time and short duration, in reducing sufentanil-induced cough. Patients and methods Eighty patients that scheduled for thyroid surgery under general anesthesia were randomly divided into the alfentanil group and normal saline group, with 40 cases per group. Patients in the alfentanil group received intravenous administration of 2 μg/kg alfentanil prior to sufentanil injection during general anesthesia induction, while the same dose of normal saline was administered in the normal saline group. The outcomes measures included the incidence and severity of cough and common side effects of opioids following the administration of sufentanil during the induction of general anesthesia, intraoperative hemodynamics parameters and major adverse events during anesthesia recovery period. Results The incidence of cough within one minute after the injection of sufentanil during anesthesia induction was 40% in the normal saline group, and the pretreatment of alfentanil significantly reduced the incidence of sufentanil-induced cough to 5% (p < 0.05). Correspondingly, the patients in the alfentanil group had decreased severity of sufentanil-induced cough compared with the normal saline group (p < 0.05). No significant differences in the incidences of common side effects of opioids (dizziness, nausea and vomiting, chest tightness and respiratory depression) within one minute after sufentanil injection were found (p > 0.05). Furthermore, there were no significant differences between the two groups in intraoperative hemodynamic parameters, extubation time, or the incidences of emergence agitation, respiratory depression, delayed recovery from anesthesia and postoperative nausea and vomiting during Postanesthesia Care Unit stay (p > 0.05). Conclusion Pretreatment with low-dose alfentanil (2 μg/kg) effectively and safely reduced both the incidence and severity of sufentanil-induced cough during anesthesia induction. Clinical Trial Registration Number Chinese Clinical Trial Registry (identifier: ChiCTR2300069286).

Abstract
Cannabis sativa is a millenary medicinal plant. However, contrary to worldwide paradigm-shifting, countries like Brazil still prohibit C. sativa cultivation and its medicinal use, even though many populations use aerial parts and roots of this plant for healthcare. As such, the objective of this work was to identify substances in the samples of the C. sativa roots, tracing a correlation with antitussive and expectorant effects. Therefore, samples of C. sativa roots were donated by the Polícia Federal Brasileira, and its aqueous extract (AECsR) was prepared with subsequent lyophilization, to maintain the material stability. After that, the material was analyzed by LC-MS to observe its chemical profile. Four samples (AECsR-A, B, C, and D) were tested in animal models of citric acid-induced cough (0.4 M) and phenol red expectoration (500 mg/kg). Using LC-MS it was possible to identify 5 molecules in C. sativa roots: p-coumaroyltyramine, tetrahydrocannabinol-C4, feruoiltyramine, anhydrocanabisativine, and cannabisativine. In experimental protocols, male mice (Mus musculus) were treated with samples of AECsR at doses of 12.5, 25, or 50 mg/kg regardless of the pharmacological test. In these tests, all samples showed the potential to treat cough and promote fluid expectoration, differing only in the dose at which these effects were observed. Therefore, the data showed that the C. sativa roots of the Brazilian Northeast showed antitussive and expectorant effects, even with intense secondary metabolites' variation, which alters its potency, but not its effect. This highlights the importance of this medicinal plant for future therapy and corroborates to traditional use.

Abstract
The study aimed to include the isolated vitexin of Jatropha mutabilis in the β-cyclodextrin cavity to improve the solubility of this flavone. Its characterization was performed by techniques such as 1H NMR/ROESY (Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy), FT-IR (Infrared Spectroscopy with Fourier Transform), SEM (Morphological analysis of IC by Scanning Electron Microscopy) and dissolution study in vitro. In addition, the following activities were evaluated in the animal models: expectorant, phenol red dosage in bronchoalveolar lavage and antitussive, cough induced by citric acid. In the characterization of the complex, interaction between hydrogens of ring B of vitexin and (H3) of β-CD was observed, in addition to changes in morphology. In the dissolution test, an increase in the rate of dissolution of vitexin was observed in the first 30 min for the CI vitexin/β-CD when compared with vitexin. Regarding the pharmacological activity, it was observed that the inclusion complex (IC) vitexin/β-CD in the equivalent doses of 0.2, 1 and 5 mg/kg of flavone presented higher expectorant activity when compared to vitexin (p < 0.05), suggesting increased bioavailability. As for the antitussive activity, both vitexin and the complex had similar effects and were dose independent. In the toxicity test using Artemia salina, vitexin and IC vitexin/β-CD were considered non-toxic. At last, the study efficacy of vitexin/β-CD IC as an expectorant and of vitexin as antitussive. All of these data are being described for the first time.

Abstract
Fentanyl-induced cough (FIC) often occurs after intravenous bolus administration of fentanyl analogs during induction of general anesthesia and analgesia procedure. The cough is generally benign, but sometimes it causes undesirable side effects, including elevated intra-abdominal, intracranial or intraocular pressure. Therefore, understanding the related mechanisms and influencing factors are of great significance to prevent and treat the cough. This paper reviews the molecular mechanism, influencing factors and preventive administration of FIC, focusing on the efficacy and side effects of various drugs in inhibiting FIC to provide some medical reference for anesthesiologists.

Abstract
PURPOSE The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of a small priming dose of sufentanil on sufentanil-induced cough during induction of anesthesia. DESIGN Randomized controlled trial. METHODS Adult patients (N = 220) aged 18 to 65 years undergoing general anesthesia were randomized into two groups (n = 110), a total dose of sufentanil 0.4 mcg/kg was used during induction of anesthesia. Group P (intervention) received a bolus of 5 mcg of sufentanil 1 minute before a bolus of the remaining larger dose of sufentanil, whereas group C (comparison) received an equal volume of normal saline 1 minute before a bolus of the total dose of sufentanil. The incidence and severity of cough were noted for 1 minute after each injection of sufentanil or normal saline. FINDINGS The incidence of cough in group P was significantly lower than group C (6.4% vs 21.8%, P < .001). The severity of cough in group P was significantly decreased compared with group C (P < .001). In group P, three patients (2.7%, P = .247) coughed after the priming sufentanil injection. CONCLUSIONS A priming dose of 5 mcg of sufentanil 1 minute before a larger dose of sufentanil injection could effectively alleviate sufentanil-induced cough, the small priming dose of sufentanil could also elicit cough with a low incidence.

Abstract
Background Sufentanil is one of the opioids currently used to induce general anesthesia, and cough is one of the most common complications. Many drugs have been used to prevent sufentanil-induced cough (SIC), and dezocine is one of them. Dezocine is an analgesic, acting as partial antagonist of κ-receptors and agonist of μ-receptors. The purpose of our meta-analysis is to evaluate the efficacy of dezocine on SIC. Methods We searched multiple databases including PubMed, Embase, ScienceDirect, the Cochrane Library, and China National Knowledge Infrastructure databases (CNKI) to identify studies that met the inclusion criteria. This meta-analysis focused on the incidence and severity of SIC after dezocine intervention, as well as adverse effects. This meta-analysis was registered on PROSPERO with reference number ID: CRD 42020144943. Results Five randomised controlled trials (RCTs) were identified, including 890 patients. Each study was a comparison of dezocine with an equal volume of 0.9% saline. When the injection dose of dezocine was 0.1 mg/kg, the incidence (pooled risk ratio (RR) = 0.03, [95% CI: 0.02 to 0.07], P < 0.00001, I2 = 0%) and severity (mild: RR = 0.07, [95% CI: 0.03 to 0.18], P < 0.00001, I2 = 0%; moderate: RR = 0.05, [95% CI: 0.02 to 0.16], P < 0.00001, I2 = 0%; severe: RR = 0.04, [95% CI: 0.01 to 0.16], P < 0.00001, I2 = 0%) of SIC were significantly decreased. There were no statistically significant differences in vital signs between the two groups based on the results of the pooled analysis. Conclusion This meta-analysis showed that dezocine significantly reduced the incidence and severity of SIC in the induction of general anesthesia, but had no significant effect on vital signs. More high-quality RCTs are needed to complement existing conclusions.

Abstract
Background Sufentanil-induced cough is frequent during the induction of anesthesia. The aim of this research was to assess the influence of pretreatment with nalbuphine on sufentanil-induced cough. Patients and Methods A total of 210 American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) I–II patients who are 18–70 years old and scheduled for elective surgery were randomly divided into two groups. Group N was pretreated with 0.3 mg/kg nalbuphine at 150 s before induction with sufentanil, and Group C received the same volume of normal saline as the placebo. We assessed the incidence and severity of cough 2 minutes after sufentanil administration. We also recorded the hemodynamic changes and side effects of sufentanil after sufentanil administration. Results No patients had cough in group N, and 30 patients had cough in group C (degree of cough: mild 8; moderate 10; severe 12). The incidence and severity of cough in group N were significantly lower than those in group C. Conclusion Pretreatment with 0.3 mg/kg nalbuphine significantly suppressed the incidence and intensity of sufentanil-induced cough.

Abstract
Anesthesiologists have a high risk of infection with COVID-19 during perioperative care and as first responders to airway emergencies. The potential of becoming infected can be reduced by a systematic and integrated approach that assesses infection risk. The latter leads to an acceptable choice of materials and techniques for personal protection and prevention of cross-contamination to other patients and staff. The authors have presented a protocolized approach that uses diagnostic criteria to clearly define benchmarks from the medical history along with clinical symptoms and laboratory tests. Patients can then be rapidly assigned into 1 of 3 risk categories that direct the choice of protective materials and/or techniques. Each hospital can adapt this approach to develop a system that fits its individual resources. Educating medical staff about the proper use of high-risk areas for containment serves to protect staff and patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Fentanyl-induced cough is found to occur more often in females and it has been observed to be a risk factor for post-operative nausea and vomiting (PONV). We studied the effect of pre-emptive Huff's manoeuvre and acupressure in reducing incidence of PONV in patients who had fentanyl-induced cough (FIC). METHODS This prospective, experimental and randomised study was conducted on 336 patients who were randomly divided into three groups. Group A (n = 112): acupressure was applied, Group B (n = 112): Huff's manoeuvre was performed and Group C (n = 112) was the control group. Thereafter the patients were given a rapid bolus of injection fentanyl at a dose of 2 μ/kg before induction of anaesthesia. Any episode of cough within 60 seconds of fentanyl administration was classified as FIC, and the severity was graded based on the number of coughs (mild 1 - 2, moderate 3 - 4, and severe 5 or more). The occurrence of PONV was recorded. Statistical analysis done using ANOVA test, Kruskal Wallis. RESULTS Incidence of FIC was 8%, 7.1%, and 25.9% in Acupressure, Huff's and control group respectively. The incidence of PONV was found to be higher in patients who had FIC rather than the patients who did not have FIC. CONCLUSION We conclude that use of Acupressure and Huff's manoeuvre have been demonstrated to be efficacious in reducing FIC and also have an impact in reducing PONV.

Abstract
Objective of the Study: Fentanyl and atropine are drugs used for analgesia during induction and for premedication, respectively. The aim of this study was to observe the effect of atropine used for premedication on cough developing in association with fentanyl use during anesthesia induction. Methods: This was a single-blind, prospective, multi-arm, parallel, randomized clinical trial involving 120 patients between ages 3 and 15 years undergoing general anesthesia. Patients were randomized into three groups: a control group (Group C), an atropine group (Group A), and a lidocaine group (Group L). Results: Incidence of cough was 45% (n = 16) in Group C, 16% (n = 6) in Group A, and 16% in Group L (n = 6) (p = 0.009). Cough was moderate in two cases in Group A and in two in Group L, and mild in all others in these groups. In Group C, cough was mild in seven cases, moderate in six, and severe in two. Conclusion: We determined that premedication with atropine suppressed the incidence and severity of fentanyl-induced cough during induction of general anesthesia. We think that, due to its antimuscarinic effect, atropine is as effective as lidocaine as a premedication.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Fentanyl-induced cough (FIC) is a common complication with a reported incidence from 18.0% to 74.4% during general anesthesia induction. FIC increases the intrathoracic pressure and risks of postoperative nausea and vomiting, yet available treatments are limited. This study was designed to investigate whether administering fentanyl via a slow intravenous fluid line can effectively alleviate FIC during induction of total intravenous general anesthesia. METHODS A total number of 1200 patients, aged 18-64 years, were enrolled, all of whom were American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) grade I or II undergoing scheduled surgeries. All patients received total intravenous general anesthesia, which was induced sequentially by midazolam, fentanyl, propofol, and cisatracurium injection. Patients were randomly assigned to receive fentanyl 3.5 μg/kg via direct injection (control group) or via a slow intravenous fluid line. FIC incidence and the severity grades were analyzed with the Mann-Whitney test. Other adverse reactions, such as hypotension, hypertension, bradycardia, tachycardia, hypoxemia, vomiting, and aspiration, during induction were also observed. The online clinical registration number of this study was ChiCTR-IOR-16009025. RESULTS Compared with the control group, the incidence of FIC was significantly lower in the slow intravenous fluid line group during induction (9.1%, 95% confidence interval (CI): 6.7%-11.4% vs. 55.9%, 95% CI: 51.8%-60.0%, P=0.000), as were the severity grades (P=0.000). There were no statistical differences between the two groups with regard to other adverse reactions (P>0.05). CONCLUSIONS The administration of fentanyl via a slow intravenous fluid line can alleviate FIC and its severity during induction for total intravenous general anesthesia. This method is simple, safe, and reliable, and deserves clinical expansion.

Abstract
Background Fentanyl-induced cough (FIC) has a reported incidence of 13–65% on induction of anesthesia. Incentive spirometry (IS) creates forceful inspiration, while stretching pulmonary receptors. We postulated that spirometry just before the fentanyl (F) bolus would decrease the incidence and severity of FIC. Methods This study enrolled 200 patients aged 18–60 years and with American Society of Anesthesiologists status I or II. The patients were allocated to two groups of 100 patients each depending on whether they received preoperative incentive spirometry before fentanyl administration. Patients in the F+IS group performed incentive spirometry 10 times just before an intravenous bolus of 3 µg/kg fentanyl in the operating room. The onset time and number of coughs after fentanyl injection were recorded as primary outcomes. Any significant changes in blood pressure, heart rate, or adverse effects of the drug were recorded as secondary outcomes. Results Patients in the F+IS group had a significantly lower incidence of FIC than in the F group (6% vs. 26%) (P < 0.05). The severity of cough in the F+IS group was also significantly lower than that in group F (mild, 5 vs. 17; moderate 1 vs. 7; severe, 0 vs. 2) (P < 0.05). The median onset time was comparable in both groups (9 s [range: 6–12 s] in both groups). Conclusions Preoperative incentive spirometry significantly reduces the incidence and severity of FIC when performed just before fentanyl administration.

Abstract
PURPOSE Fentanyl is a strong µ-opioid analgesic which attenuates the stimulation of surgical invasion and tracheal intubation. However, intravenous fentanyl often induces coughing [fentanyl-induced coughing (FIC)] during induction of anesthesia. We found that the swallowing action, when requested at induction of anesthesia, attenuated FIC. In the current study, we investigated the relationship between the occurrence of FIC and the swallowing action. METHODS The study included American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status I or II patients, aged 20-64 years, who were undergoing elective surgery. They were divided into two groups-one group was urged to perform the swallowing action immediately before intravenous fentanyl (S group), and the other group performed no swallowing action (non-S group). The patients first received intravenous fentanyl and were observed for 90 s. Each patient's background, dose of fentanyl and occurrence of coughing were investigated from their records and a motion picture recording. The incidence of FIC was evaluated by chi-squared test, and severity was tested by Wilcoxon rank-sum test. P < 0.05 was considered statistically significant. RESULTS The incidence of FIC in the S group and non-S group was 14.0 and 40.4%, respectively. The risk of FIC was reduced in the S group by 75%; risk ratio (95% confidence interval) was 0.35 (0.20, 0.60). The number of coughs in the S group were less than in the non-S group (P < 0.001). CONCLUSION The swallowing action immediately before intravenous fentanyl may be a simple and clinically feasible method for preventing FIC effectively.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Fentanyl is frequently used during anesthesia induction. The use of fentanyl can cause cough through different mechanisms. Here, we aimed to investigate effects of pheniramine maleate (PM), an antihistaminic agent, and compare it with lidocaine on fentanyl induced cough. METHODS This is a randomized double-blind prospective clinical study of ASA I-II, 120 patients scheduled for elective abdominal surgery. Patients were administered drugs intravenously and randomly allocated into three groups: Group C (2 ml 0.9 % normal saline), Group L (1mg/kg lidocaine), and Group F (PM 45.5 mg). 90 seconds after administration, 2µ/kg fentanyl was applied in three seconds to all patients. Severity of cough (mild: 1-2, moderate: 3-5, severe> 5), time of the cough and vital parameters were recorded 90 seconds after fentanyl injection. RESULTS Eight patients (25%) in Group C had fentanyl induced cough whereas three patients (7.5%) in Group L and one patient (2.5%) in Group F experienced this phenomenon. There was statistically significant difference between Group F and Group C (p<0.05); however, differences between Group L and Group C or Group F and Group L were not statistically significant (p>0.05). CONCLUSIONS Pheniramine Maleate 45.5 mg is better that placebo and as effective as lidocaine to prevent fentanyl induced cough.

Abstract
Fentanyl-induced cough (FIC) is unwanted in the patients requiring stable induction of general anesthesia. This study was designed to evaluate the suppressive effects of butorphanol pretreatment on the incidence and severity of FIC during the induction of general anesthesia. A total of 315 patients of American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status I and II, scheduled for elective surgery under general anesthesia were randomized into 3 equally sized groups (n = 0105). Two minutes before fentanyl bolus, group I received intravenously 5 mL normal saline, groups II and III received butorphanol 0.015 and 0.03 mg/kg (diluted with saline to 5 mL), respectively. Patients were then administrated with fentanyl 2.5 μg/kg within 5 s. The incidence and severity of FIC was recorded for 2 minutes after fentanyl bolus. During experimental period, the mean arterial pressure, heart rate, and peripheral capillary oxygen saturation (SpO2) were recorded before the administration of butorphanol or normal saline (T0), 2 minutes (T1) after butorphanol injection, and 2 minutes (T2) after fentanyl injection. The incidence of FIC was 31.4% in group I, 11.4% in group II, and 3.8% in group III. Group III had a lowest incidence of FIC among 3 groups (P < 0.001, vs group I; P < 0.05, vs group II). The severe FIC was not observed in groups II and III, but was recoded from 6 patients in group I. At 2 minutes after fentanyl injection (T2), the mean arterial pressure was significantly higher in group I than that in groups II and III (P < 0.01, vs group II; P < 0.05, vs group III), but the values remained within safe limits. In conclusion, pretreatment with butorphanol could effectively and safely suppress FIC during anesthesia induction.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES There are many studies conducted on reducing the frequency and severity of fentayl-induced cough during anesthesia induction. We propose that pheniramine maleate, an antihistaminic, may suppress this cough. We aim to observe the effect of pheniramine on fentanyl-induced cough during anesthesia induction. METHODS This is a double-blinded, prospective, three-arm parallel, randomized clinical trial of 120 patients with ASA (American Society of Anesthesiologists) physical status III and IV who aged ≥18 and scheduled for elective open heart surgery during general anesthesia. Patients were randomly assigned to three groups of 40 patients, using computer-generated random numbers: placebo group, pheniramine group, and lidocaine group. RESULTS Cough incidence differed significantly between groups. In the placebo group, 37.5% of patients had cough, whereas the frequency was significantly decreased in pheniramine group (5%) and lidocaine group (15%) (Fischer exact test, p=0.0007 and p=0.0188, respectively). There was no significant change in cough incidence between pheniramine group (5%) and lidocaine group (15%) (Fischer exact test, p=0.4325). Cough severity did also change between groups. Post Hoc tests with Bonferroni showed that mean cough severity in placebo differed significantly than that of pheniramine group and lidocaine group (p<0.0001 and p=0.009, respectively). There was no significant change in cough severity between pheniramine group and lidocaine group (p=0.856). CONCLUSION Intravenous pheniramine is as effective as lidocaine in preventing fentayl-induced cough. Our results emphasize that pheniramine is a convenient drug to decrease this cough.

Abstract
Background and Aims: Fentanyl-induced cough (FIC) is often seen after intravenous (IV) administration of fentanyl during the induction of general anesthesia. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of low dose of propofol in suppressing of FIC during induction of anesthesia. Material and Methods: In a prospective double-blind randomized controlled trial, a total of 240 patients, American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status Class I and II, scheduled for elective surgery were randomly assigned into two equally sized groups (n = 120). Patients in Group A received low dose of propofol (10 mg) and patients in Group B received the same volume of normal saline (control group). Two minutes later, all patients were given fentanyl (2 μg/kg) over 2 s through the peripheral IV line in the forearm. The vital sign profiles and frequency and intensity of cough were recorded within 2 min after fentanyl bolus by a nurse blinded to study design. Data were analyzed using independent t-test, paired t-test and Chi-square test. Results: The incidences of FIC were 9.2% and 40.8% in Group A (propofol) and Group B (placebo) respectively (P = 0.04). Furthermore, there was a significant difference in the intensity of cough between Groups A and B (P < 0.0001). The hemodynamic value (systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, heart rate, mean arterial pressure and saturation of oxygen) were similar, and there was no significant difference between two groups in the baseline value or after propofol or placebo injection.

There was no significant change in cough severity between pheniramine group and lidocaine group (p=0.856). CONCLUSION Intravenous pheniramine is as effective as lidocaine in preventing fentayl-induced cough. Our results emphasize that pheniramine is a convenient drug to decrease this cough.

Abstract
Sufentanil-induced cough is a common phenomenon during the induction of anesthesia. This double-blind, randomized, and placebo-controlled study was designed to investigate the effects of prophylactic magnesium sulfate (MgSO4) on the incidence and severity of sufentanil-induced cough. A total of 165 patients who were scheduled for elective surgery under general anesthesia were allocated into three groups (I, II, and III; n = 55 each) that were injected with either 50 ml of normal saline, 30 or 50 mg/kg of MgSO4 (diluted with normal saline into 50 ml). One minute following the injection, all patients were injected with 1.0 μg/kg of sufentanil within 5 s. The incidence and severity of cough were recorded 30 s after the sufentanil injection. The hemodynamic parameters and plasma magnesium concentration of the patients were also noted. Three patients dropped out the study due to an obvious burning sensation during the injection of 50 mg/kg of MgSO4. Although the injection of 50 mg/kg of MgSO4 increased the plasma magnesium level, the increase remained within the therapeutic range (2-4 mmol/L). The incidence of cough was much higher in group I than in groups II and III (47.1% vs. 16.4% and 7.6%, respectively, P < 0.05). Compared with group I, group III had the lowest incidence of mild cough and both groups II and III had lower incidence of moderate and severe cough (P < 0.05). There were no differences in the hemodynamic data at three timepoints among the three groups. In conclusion, sufentanil-induced cough may be suppressed effectively and safely by prophylactic use of 30 mg/kg of MgSO4 during anesthetic induction.

Abstract
Fentanyl-induced cough is a common phenomenon during anesthesia induction. Magnesium sulphate (MgSO4) is reported to have a powerful relaxation of airway smooth muscle. This study is to investigate the effects of prophylactic MgSO4 on the incidence and severity of fentanyl-induced cough. A total of 120 patients, scheduled for elective surgery under general anesthesia, were randomly allocated into three groups (n = 40, each group) and injected with 50 ml normal saline, 30 mg/kg and 50 mg/kg of MgSO4 (diluted with normal saline into 50 ml) in groups I, II and III, respectively. One minute later all patients were injected with 5.0 μg/kg of fentanyl within 5 s. The incidence and severity of cough were recorded 30 s after fentanyl injection. Hemodynamic parameters and plasma magnesium concentration of the patients were also noted. Three patients dropped off the study due to obvious burning sense during injection of 50 mg/kg of MgSO4. Injection with 50 mg/kg of MgSO4 increased plasma magnesium level at the end of its infusion, but the latter still remained within therapeutic range (2-4 mmol/L). The incidence of cough in group I was much higher than those in groups II and III (45.0% vs. 15.0% and 8.1%, P < 0.05). Compared with the group I, both the groups II and III had lower incidence of moderate cough (P < 0.05). There were no differences in the hemodynamic data at three timepoints among the three groups. In conclusion, fentanyl-induced cough may be suppressed effectively and safely by prophylactic 30 mg/kg of MgSO4 during anesthetic induction.

Abstract
Fentanyl-induced cough (FIC) should be effectively prevented in patients requiring stable induction of general anesthesia. Our study was to evaluate the suppressive effects of different doses of intravenous dezocine on FIC during the induction of general anesthesia. A total of 400 patients of American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) physical status I and II were randomized into four groups (n = 100). Right before Fentanyl bolus, the four groups were given intravenously a matching placebo (group I) (equal volume of 0.9% saline), dezocine 0.025 mg/kg (group II), 0.05 mg/kg (group III), and 0.1 mg/kg (group IV), respectively. Patients were induced with fentanyl 3 µg/kg and the injection time of fentanyl was less than 5 s in all patients. The occurrence of cough was recorded 2 min after fentanyl bolus. The incidence of FIC was 40% in group I, 12% in group II, 4% in group III, and 0 in group IV. Group I had significantly higher incidence of FIC than Groups II, III and IV (P < 0.05). Group IV had lower incidence of FIC than Groups II (0% vs 12%; P = 0.0003) and III (0% vs 4%; P = 0.043). Our study showed that intravenous dezocine reduced the incidence of FIC during anesthetic induction. The suppressive effect was dose-dependent.

Abstract
Fentanyl-induced cough (FIC) is often observed after intravenous bolus administration of fentanyl during anesthesia induction. This meta-analysis assessed the efficacy of pharmacological and nonpharmacological interventions to reduce the incidence of FIC. We searched for randomized controlled trials comparing pharmacological or nonpharmacological interventions with controls to prevent FIC; we included 28 studies retrieved from Pub-Med, Embase, and Cochrane Library. Overall incidence of FIC was approximately 31 %. Lidocaine [odds ratio (OR) = 0.29, 95 % confidence interval (CI) 0.21–0.39], N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor antagonists (OR 0.09, 95 % CI 0.02–0.42), propofol (OR 0.07, 95 % CI 0.01–0.36), a2 agonists (OR 0.32, 95 % CI 0.21–0.48), b2 agonists (OR 0.10, 95 % CI 0.03–0.30), fentanyl priming (OR 0.33, 95 % CI 0.19–0.56), and slow injection of fentanyl (OR 0.25, 95 % CI 0.11–0.58)] were effective in decreasing the incidence of FIC, whereas atropine (OR 1.10, 95 % CI 0.58–2.11) and benzodiazepines (OR 2.04, 95 % CI 1.33–3.13) were not effective. This meta-analysis found that lidocaine, NMDA receptor antagonists, propofol, a2 agonists, b2 agonists, and priming dose of fentanyl were effective in preventing FIC, but atropine and benzodiazepines were not. Slow injection of fentanyl was effective in preventing FIC, but results depend on the speed of administration.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study was designed to investigate whether a priming dose of ketamine-dexmedetomidine can effectively suppress fentanyl-induced coughing (FIC). METHODS Altogether 400 patients of ASA I and II, aged 18-70 years, undergoing various elective surgical procedures, were randomly allocated into four groups of 100 patients each. Patients in the placebo group received volume-matched normal saline 0.15 mL/kg + normal saline 0.05 mL/kg. One group of patients was given ketamine 0.15 mg/kg + normal saline 0.05 ml/kg (KET), and another group dexmedetomidine 0.5 μg/kg + normal saline 0.05 ml/kg (DEX). Finally, one group of patients received ketamine 0.15 mg/kg + dexmedetomidine 0.5 μg/kg (KETODEX). After fentanyl administration, the onset time and severity of cough for 1 min were recorded. Cough severity was graded as mild (grade 1-2), moderate (grade 3-5), or severe (grade >5). RESULT The incidence of FIC was 53%, 34%, 20%, and 9% in the placebo, DEX, KET, and KETODEX groups, respectively. The incidence of cough was significantly lower in the KETODEX group. Likewise, the onset time of cough was significantly delayed in the KETODEX group. Only nine patients in the KETODEX group had either mild (6%) or moderate (3%) cough, with none suffering from severe cough. CONCLUSION A priming dose of KETODEX effectively suppressed the cough reflex induced by fentanyl and delayed the onset time of cough. Therefore, treatment with KETODEX may be a clinically useful method for preventing FIC.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Opioid-induced cough during induction of general anesthesia is a common phenomenon. Dezocine, a partial μ-receptors agonist and κ-receptors antagonist, has been documented effectively suppressing fentanyl-induced cough in general anesthesia induction. However, the effect of dezocine on sufentanil-induced cough is still unknown. METHODS A total of 370 patients (American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status I-II), aged 18-70 years, undergoing elective surgery, were randomly divided into a control group (group C) and a dezocine group (group D) (n=185 in each group). Patients received dezocine 0.1mg/kg or an equal volume of 0.9% normal saline 2 min prior to intravenous sufentanil (0.5 μg/kg). The incidence and reflex degree of cough in patients were evaluated within 2 min after the injection of sufentanil in anesthesia induction period. RESULTS No patient in group D had cough and 59 patients in group C had cough (severity of cough: mild, 7%; moderate, 11.4%; severe, 13.5%). The occurrence and reflex degree of cough in group D was significantly lower than that in group C (P=0.000). The highest heart rate (HR) and invasive blood pressure (IBP) values were higher in group C than those in group D (P<0.01) within 2 min after sufentanil administration, althought these values remained within safe limits. CONCLUSION The results of current study suggest that administration of Dezocine 0.1mg/kg may effectively prevent the occurrence and reflex degree of sufentanil-induced irritating cough in general anesthesia induction in patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Fentanyl-induced cough is usually mild and transitory, but it can be undesirable in patients with increased intracranial pressure, open wounds of the eye, dissecting aortic aneurism, pneumothorax, and reactive airway disease. The aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of lidocaine in suppressing fentanyl-induced cough in children during induction in general anesthesia. METHODS One hundred and eighty-six children of both sexes, aged between 4-10 years, ASA physical status I and II, and scheduled for elective surgery, were recruited for the study. Patients with a history of bronchial asthma, obstructive pulmonary disease, or infections of the respiratory tract were excluded. Patients were randomly allocated to three equal groups (n = 62) to receive 1.0 mg/kg lidocaine (Group I), 0.5 mg/kg lidocaine (Group II), or placebo (equal volume of 0.9% saline; Group III). Each was administered over 5 s one minute before intravenous (IV) administration of fentanyl 2-3 μg/kg during induction in general anesthesia. The severity of coughing was graded by counting the number of episodes of cough: mild (1-2), moderate (3-4) or severe (5 or more). RESULTS Demographic information was comparable between groups. The most frequent coughing was observed in the placebo group (Group III; 43.5%), of whom 4.8% (three patients) were graded with severe cough. In Group II, 22.6% patients had cough, of which 1.6% (one patient) was graded as severe. In Group I, 16.1% patients had cough, none of whom were graded as severe. CONCLUSION Our results demonstrate that IV lidocaine can markedly suppress fentanyl-induced cough in children, even in doses as low as 0.5 mg/kg.
