【 摘 要 】

Background

A new supraglottic device, the LMA-Supreme™, has recently become available for clinical use. Information on anaesthetic and co-adjuvant requirements for insertion of the LMA-Supreme™ is limited. The present study aimed to evaluate the optimal effect-site concentration of propofol in 50 % (EC ₅₀ ) of adults necessary for successful insertion of the LMA-Supreme™ and to examine remifentanil’s effect on propofol requirements.

Methods

Fifty-eight elective patients (aged 18–60 years; ASA (American Society Anaesthesiologists) physical status classification I and II) scheduled for day surgery were randomly assigned to one of two groups: propofol with saline or propofol with remifentanil. Anaesthesia was induced by target-controlled infusion according to predetermined effect-site concentrations of propofol and remifentanil (5 ng.mL ⁻¹ ). The EC ₅₀was calculated using Dixon’s up-and-down method. Ten minutes following drug administration, LMA-Supreme™ insertion was attempted without the use of muscle relaxant drugs.

Results

In the propofol + saline group, the EC ₅₀of propofol required for LMA-Supreme™ insertion was 6.32 ± 0.67 μg.mL ⁻¹(95 % CI, 5.69–6.94 μg.mL ⁻¹ ). With the addition of remifentanil at an effect-site concentration of 5 ng.mL ⁻¹ , the EC ₅₀of propofol required for LMA-Supreme™ insertion was 2.50 ± 0.80 μg.mL ⁻¹(95 % CI, 1.82–3.17 μg.mL ⁻¹ ; p < 0.0001).

Conclusions

The propofol requirement for smooth insertion of the LMA-Supreme™ was 60 % less when remifentanil (5 ng.mL ⁻¹ ) was co-administered.
