NCT03522402

Brief Summary

Children scheduled for tonsillectomy surgery were recruited into the study. General anesthesia was induced with 8% sevoflurane inhaled with 8 l.min-1 of oxygen via mask, followed by adjustment of inspired sevoflurane to the target concentration based on the result in previous patient at which laryngoscopy and tracheal intubation were attempted and maintained for 12 min. All responses to tracheal intubation were assessed. At the end of the procedure, sevoflurane was titrated to the target concentration, which was kept constant for 12 min before a standard stimulus was applied to determine whether the children was awake. The Dixon's 'up and down'method was used to determine progression of subsequent concentrations.The aim of this study was to determine whether the minimum alveolar concentration of endotracheal intubation(MACEI)of sevoflurane in children with obstructive airway are different from that observed in normal children.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • minimum alveolar anesthetic concentration of endotracheal intubation

    To compare the minimum alveolar anesthetic concentration of endotracheal intubation required for different head position in children with obstructive airway.

    The sevoflurane concentration is obtained when tracheal intubated immediately.

Secondary Outcomes (4)

  • intubation score

    The intubation score is obtained when tracheal intubation was inserted immediately.

  • blood pressure include systolic and diastolic in mmHg

    Baseline and every 1 minutes until 10 minutes after insertion of the endotracheal intubation.

  • heart rate in bpm

    Baseline and every 1 minutes until 10 minutes after insertion of the endotracheal intubation.

  • bispectral index(BIS), number from 100 (awake) to 40-60(anesthetic status)

    Baseline and every 1 minutes until 10 minutes after insertion of the endotracheal intubation.

Study Arms (2)

30 degree rotated lateral position

EXPERIMENTAL

19 patients American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) class I or II aged 2-8 years undergoing tonsillectomy surgery were randomized to the head in 30 degree rotated lateral position. The end-tidal (ET) sevoflurane concentration used for each patient was determined using the Dixon's up-and-down method. The ratio of the end-tidal to predetermined end-tidal concentrations was maintained at 0.95-1.0 for at least 10 minutes to establish equilibration before device insertion was attempted. The first patient received a 5.0% sevoflurane concentration and the step size of increase/decrease was 0.5%.

Drug: Sevoflurane

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

19 patients American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) class I or II aged 2-8 years undergoing tonsillectomy surgery were randomized to the head in the neutral position.The end-tidal (ET) sevoflurane concentration used for each patient was determined using the Dixon's up-and-down method. The ratio of the end-tidal to predetermined end-tidal concentrations was maintained at 0.95-1.0 for at least 10 minutes to establish equilibration before device insertion was attempted. The first patient received a 5.0% sevoflurane concentration and the step size of increase/decrease was 0.5%.

Drug: Sevoflurane

Interventions

38 patients American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) class I or II aged 2-8 years undergoing tonsillectomy surgery were randomized to either the patient's head in the neutral position or 30 degree rotated lateral position. The end-tidal (ET) sevoflurane concentration used for each patient was determined using the Dixon's up-and-down method. The ratio of the end-tidal to predetermined end-tidal concentrations was maintained at 0.95-1.0 for at least 10 minutes to establish equilibration before device insertion was attempted. The first patient received a 5.0% sevoflurane concentration and the step size of increase/decrease was 0.5%.
