Abstract:Objective To investigate the effect of remimazolam on core body temperature (CBT) and thermoregulatory vasoconstriction in patients undergoing gynecological laparoscopic surgery.Methods 90 gynaecology patients with ovarian or cervical cancer from Jan 2024 to Jun 2024 were randomly divided into experimental group (group R) and control group (group C). 45 patients in each group were induced and maintained with remimazolam or propofol. After induction of anesthesia, the CBT and mean skin temperature (MST) were continuously monitored using a nasopharyngeal temperature probe and a skin temperature probe respectively. Record CBT and MST of two groups of patients before surgery (T0), 30 min (T1), 60 min (T2), 90 min (T3), 120 min(T4), 150 min (T5), 180 min (T6) after induction of anesthesia and at extubation (T7), as well as forearm-fingertip temperature gradient (TFOR-FIN). Record vasoconstriction threshold and time to onset of vasoconstriction by TFOR-TIN. Record the changes in mean arterial pressure (MAP), heart rate (HR), and cardiac index (CI) at each time point (T0, T1, T2, T3, T4,T5, T6 and T7 time point); Record the incidence of hypothermia, hypotension and bradycardia and the use of vasoactive drugs.Results Compared with T0 time point, the CBT and TFOR-TIN at T1 to T7 time point decreased significantly, but the MST increased (P < 0.05); In group C, the CBT at T1 to T5 decreased significantly than in group R (P < 0.05); Compared with group C, MST in group R increased significantly at time T1 to T7 (P < 0.05). The vasoconstriction threshold in group R was significantly higher than that in group C, and the time to reach the vasoconstriction threshold was significantly less than that in group C (P < 0.05). Compared with T0 time point, MAP and CI at T1, T2, T3 time point decreased significantly in two groups, MAP and CI at T1, T2, T3 time point in group R were higher than those in group C (P < 0.05); Compared with group R, the incidence of perioperative hypothermia (PH) and hypotension and the utilization rate of ephedirine in group C were increased (P < 0.05).Conclusion Remimazolam and propofol for gynecological laparoscopic general anesthesia can cause intraoperative temperature drop in patients, compared with propofol, remimazolam general anesthesia has less influence on CBT, more stable hemodynamics,less influence on thermoregulatory vasoconstriction, less degree of diastolic blood vessels, has better body temperature protection.
