A clinical prospective comparison of anesthetics sensitivity and hemodynamic effect among patients with or without obstructive jaundice

Background: To compare isoflurane anesthesia in patients with or without hyperbilirubinemia undergoing hepatobiliary surgery. Methods: Forty‐two patients with obstructive jaundice and 40 control patients with normal liver function scheduled for hepatobiliary surgery under isoflurane anesthesia were...

Summary:Background: To compare isoflurane anesthesia in patients with or without hyperbilirubinemia undergoing hepatobiliary surgery. Methods: Forty‐two patients with obstructive jaundice and 40 control patients with normal liver function scheduled for hepatobiliary surgery under isoflurane anesthesia were studied. Anesthesia was induced with propofol (1.5–2 mg/kg) and remifentanil (2 μg/kg). After tracheal intubation, anesthesia was titrated using isoflurane in oxygen‐enriched air, adjusted to maintain a bispectral index (BIS) value of 46–54. Ephedrine, atropine and remifentanil were used to maintain hemodynamic parameters within 30% of the baseline. The mean arterial blood pressure (MAP), heart rate (HR), drug doses and the time taken to recover from anesthesia were recorded. Results: Demographic data, duration and BIS values were similar in both groups. Anesthesia induction and maintenance were associated with more hemodynamic instability in the patients with jaundice and they received more ephedrine and atropine and less remifentanil and isoflurane (51.1±24.2 vs. 84.6±20.3 mg/min; P for all
