目的:评价依托咪酯单次给药对重型颅脑损伤后颅内压增高患儿的疗效。方法:经监护人知情同意,入组重型颅脑损伤患儿重症监护室。实验干预是静脉注射依托咪酯0.3 mg/kg。仅当入组患者颅内压(ICP)急性升高至20 mm Hg以上并持续5分钟以上时,才给予该剂量。连续监测ICP和平均动脉压(MAP)。依托咪酯给药后连续6个5分钟间隔的ICP和MAP值的平均值为所有患者,并与基线比较。依托咪酯给药后平均ICP每5分钟均显著低于基线ICP(P < 0.05)。所有患者的平均MAP在前5分钟间隔内均较基线升高,但该变化无统计学显著性。没有病人的MAP下降低于基线在任何时间point.Conclusions:在严重创伤性脑损伤的儿科患者,单剂量依托咪酯给药导致在统计学上显着降低ICP和改善脑灌注压,而不显着改变MAP。
Objective: To evaluate the effects of single-dose etomidate in pediatric patients with intracranial hypertension after severe traumatic brain injury.Methods: Patients admitted to the pediatric intensive care unit with severe traumatic brain injury were enrolled with the informed consent of their guardians. The experimental intervention was a single dose of etomidate 0.3 mg/kg intravenously. This dosage was administered only when enrolled patients had acute elevations of intracranial pressure (ICP) to over 20 mm Hg for over 5 minutes. ICP and mean arterial pressure (MAP) were monitored continuously. ICP and MAP values for 6 consecutive 5-minute intervals after etomidate administration were averaged for all patients and compared with baseline.Results: Eight patients were enrolled. Mean ICP after etomidate administration was significantly lower than baseline ICP for each 5-minute interval (P < 0.05). The mean MAP for all patients increased from baseline during the first 5-minute interval, but this change was not statistically significant. No patient's MAP decreased below baseline at any time point.Conclusions: In pediatric patients with severe traumatic brain injury, single-dose etomidate administration resulted in statistically significant reductions in ICP and improvement in cerebral perfusion pressure without significantly altering MAP.
