Abstract
Introduction. Currently, inhaled third-generation anesthetic agents, such as sevoflurane and desflurane, are commonly used in pediatric practice. Their properties and efficiencies are studied in detail. Information about the effectiveness and safety of these drugs as emergency anesthesia in children is very limited; there are no comparative studies.
The aim of this study was to conduct a comparative evaluation of desflurane and sevoflurane to maintain anesthesia during the surgical correction of vertebral and spinal cord injury in children.
Material and methods. This study included seventy-four 12–18-year-old patients (mean age, 14 years) who underwent immediate surgical correction of unstable fractures of the thoracolumbar and lumbar spine at the Turner Scientific Research Institute for Children’s Orthopedics between 2015 and 2017. The patients were categorized into two groups: group D, in which anesthesia was maintained with desflurane (35 patients), and group C, in which anesthesia was maintained with sevoflurane (39 patients).
The following parameters were studied: systolic, diastolic, and average blood pressure (BP); heart rate (HR); respiratory recovery time; time to extubation; time to instruction completion; and presence of complications intraoperatively and within 24 h after surgery, including pronounced intraoperative hypotension, bradypnea, and desaturation (SpO2 < 95%) in the postextubation period, agitation, nausea, vomiting, and measured blood loss.
Results. A comparative evaluation of the investigated parameters revealed that the systolic, diastolic, and average BP and HR in both groups did not exceed the limits of acceptable values. The results of the intraoperative monitoring of capillary blood parameters in all patients were within the reference range and did not differ significantly between groups. An analysis of the indicators reflecting the rate of awakening revealed that all stages of the termination of anesthesia were performed more quickly in group D. There was a comparable number of postoperative nausea and vomiting episodes in both groups. Group C displayed a high incidence of postoperative agitation. There were no related adverse respiratory effects in group D, whereas three patients reported such effects in group C.
Conclusions. The use of desflurane and sevoflurane provides a favorable hemodynamic profile intraoperatively and is not accompanied with the development of clinically significant side effects. Desflurane reduces the probability of certain adverse effects in the immediate postoperative period, provides a faster awakening, and has the possibility of reliable assessment of neurological status after surgery.
