简要总结
Propofol is a well-known induction agent which can provide sound and quick hypnosis with anti-emetic effects. However, dose dependent hypotension or bradycardia have reported while using this agent. Propofol in combination with remifentanil or midazolam can result in synergistic or additive effect in elderly patients. There are not many studies which provide minimum dose of propofol to induce hypnosis in combination with these agents and advantage of the combination.
The elderly patients (over 65 years old) who are scheduled to undergo general anesthesia are enrolled in this study. 120 patients will be randomly allocated to 3 groups(P, PR, PMR). Sample size have been decided due to the previous studies which have mentioned 40 participants as a adequate sample size for this biased coin design - up and down study.
After receiving informed consent, patients will be participated in this study. No premedication will be given to the patients before induction. The patients in group P will receive general anesthesia only with propofol and group PR and PMR will receive 0.125 mcg/kg/min remifentanil infusion for 5 min prior to propofol administration. The patients in group PMR will receive 0.015 mg/kg bolus dose of midazolam 1 min after the start of the remifentanil infusion. Initial propofol dose will be 0.5 mg/kg in each group and the dose will be changed by the result of prior study participant.
'Success' of this study will be defined as loss of both verbal response and eyelash reflex in 3 min after propofol administration. When 'success', the next patient will receive the same dose(in 18/19 probability) or 0.125 mg/kg lower dose(in 1/19 probability) of propofol. When 'failure', the next patient will receive 0.125 mg/kg higher dose of propofol at induction period.
