Abstract:

Objective

To explore the application of general anesthesia combined with ultrasound-guided transverse abdominal plane (TAP) block anesthesia in elderly inguinal hernia repair.

Methods

The clinical data of 100 elderly patients undergoing laparoscopic inguinal hernia repair in Jianhu County People's Hospital of Jiangsu Province from January 2020 to March 2023 were retrospectively analyzed.They were divided into observation group and control group according to anesthesia method, with 50 patients in each group.The control group underwent simple general anesthesia,while observation group underwent general anesthesia combined with ultrasound-guided TAP block anesthesia.Heart rate (HR) and mean arterial pressure (MAP) before anesthesia (T0), before incision (T1),10min after incision (T2), and immediately after surgery (T3); visual analogue scale scores (VAS) after recovery (T4), 6 h (T5), 24 h (T6), and 48 h (T7) after surgery; simple Mental State Assessment Scale(MMSE) scores at T0, T6 and 7 days after surgery (T8); intraoperative analgesics addition, recovery time,Cravero score were compared between the two groups.

Results

At T4, there was no significant difference in VAS scores between the two groups (P>0.05).At T5, T6 and T7, VAS scores in observation group were significantly lower than those in control group, with statistically significant difference (P<0.05).At T0 and T1, there was no significant difference in HR and MAP levels between the two groups (P>0.05).At T2 and T3, levels of HR and MAP in observation group were significantly lower than those in control group, with statistically significant difference (P<0.05).At T0, there was no significant difference in MMSE scores between 2 groups (P>0.05).At T6 and T8, MMSE scores in observation group were significantly higher than those in control group (P<0.05).The postoperative additional dosages of propofol and sufentanil in observation group were significantly lower than those in control group (P<0.05).The recovery time in observation group was significantly shorter than that in control group, and Cravero score was significantly lower than that in control group (P<0.05).

Conclusion

General anesthesia combined with ultrasound-guided TAP block anesthesia has a good anesthetic effect on elderly patients undergoing laparoscopic inguinal hernia repair, which can effectively relieve postoperative pain, reduce intraoperative analgesics addition and improve recovery quality, with less influences on hemodynamics and cognitive function.
