Abstract:Objective To investigate the different anesthesia methods of bronchoscopy and bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) in children, and study the clinical application of comfortable bronchoscopy in children.Methods 90 hospitalized children who met the bronchoscopy and BAL clinical indications from August 2018 to July 2021 were selected. The children were divided into observation group and control group according to random number table method, with 45 cases in each group aged 1 to 3 years. The observation group was treated with inhalation, deep sedation and intravenous anesthesia, bronchoscopy and BAL examination by modified double-cavity laryngeal mask. The control group received local surface anesthesia combined with intravenous anesthesia bronchoscopy and BAL. The changes of each index at different time points during operation were recorded and compared between the two groups.Results There was no statistically significant difference in percutaneous arterial oxygen saturation (SpO2), heart rate (HR) and mean arterial pressure (MAP) at the start of surgery for 5 min (T1) and 15 min (T2) and 30 min (T3) in the observation group (P > 0.05); MAP at the start of surgery for 15 min (T2) in the control group was compared with the MAP in the observation group, there was a significant difference (P < 0.05). The observation group was given a modified laryngeal mask with two cavities, the average operation time of the observation group was shorter than that of the control group, agitation and the total adverse respiratory reactions were less in the observation group, and the differences were statistically significant (P < 0.05).Conclusion Compared with local surface anesthesia combined with intravenous anesthesia, the incidence of agitation and adverse respiratory reactions were lower during bronchoscopy by inhalation combined with deep sedation and intravenous anesthesia, MAP fluctuation was smaller, operation time was shortened, and the degree of diagnosis and treatment comfort was improved.
