Abstract:Objective To observe the effect of propofol combined with hydrochloride nalbuphine or sufentanil on coughing response, hemodynamics, and intraoperative respiratory depression, etc. in painless bronchoscopy patients.Methods 103 patients who received selective painless fiberoptic bronchoscopy were randomly divided into nalbuphine group (N group), sufentanil group (S group), and propofol group (C group). Group N: nalbuphine 10 ~ 20 mg + propofol 100 ~ 150 mg, Group S: sufentanil 5 ~ 10 μg + propofol 100 ~ 150 mg, Group C: only propofol 100 ~ 150 mg were injected intravenously before the operation. Recorded the mean arterial pressure (MAP), heart rates (HR), blood oxygen saturation (SpO2) were recorded when patients entering the operating room (T0), bronchoscope entered the glottis (T1), during the examination (T2), after the operation was completed (T3). Recorded the coughing score when the bronchoscope enters the glottis, and the times of mask to ventilate oxygen during the whole process.Results There was no significant difference in MAP, HR, and SpO2 of the three groups of patients at each operation time point (P > 0.05); The cough score of group C was higher than that of group N and S (P < 0.05), and the recovery time of group C was longer than N Group and S group (P < 0.05), there was no difference between N group and S group (P > 0.05), and mask ventilation times had no difference in the three groups (P > 0.05).Conclusion Low-dose hydrochloride nalbuphine or sufentanil combined with propofol used for painless fiberoptic bronchoscopy, which has less impact on hemodynamics and can effectively inhibit the coughing reflex during operation and didn’t show increasing the occurrence of respiratory depression when compared to only use propofol.
