Comparison of Hemodynamic Stability of 2% Lignocaine and 0.2% Ropivacaine in Chest Tube Removal in Post Cardiac Surgery Patients
Journal Title: International Journal of Medical Research Professionals - Year 2018, Vol 4, Issue 1
Abstract
Background: Recovery from cardiac surgery depends on the preoperative clinical state of patient, type of surgery, and postoperative analgesia. A chest tube insertion is done to preserve hemodynamic stability and cardiopulmonary function after cardiac surgery by ensuring fluid and air drainage from the pleural, pericardial or mediastinal cavities. The aim of the present study is to compare hemodynamic stability of 2% lignocaine and 0.2% ropivacaine in Chest Tube Removal in Post Cardiac Surgery Patients. Materials and Methods: This prospective randomized double blinded comparative study was conducted involving 60 patients (30 in each group) posted for coronary artery bypass grafting at Mahatma Gandhi Hospital, Jaipur. The cardiac monitor was attached with proper recording of hemodynamic parameters such as invasive blood pressure, ECG, arterial oxygen saturation. All the data was arranged in a tabulated form and analysed using SPSS software. Chi square test and Student’’s t test were used for the analysis of data. P value of less than 0.05 was considered significant. Results: There were 14 patients in group C and 15 patients in group S that had ASA grade 2. There were 16 patients in group C and 15 patients in group S had ASA grade 3. The mean heart rate value at 0 minutes in Group C and Group S was 98.87 and 90.20 respectively. There was a significant difference between the two as the p value was less than 0.05. Conclusion: Both drugs were found to be safe to use as we noted no adverse reactions in our patients. The dose of fentanyl used in our study did not cause respiratory depression and sedation.
