Abstract
PURPOSE:Chest physiotherapy and tracheal suction cause sympathetic stimulation and increase heart rate (HR), mean arterial pressure (MAP) and intracranial pressure (ICP) which may have deleterious effect in the head injured. We planned to compare the effect of intravenous dexmedetomidine and lidocaine on intracerebral and systemic hemodynamic response to chest physiotherapy (CP) and tracheal suctioning (TS) in patients with severe traumatic brain injury (sTBI). METHODS: Prospective, randomized study in patients with sTBI, 18-60 years of age, undergoing mechanical ventilation and intraparenchymal ICP monitoring. Patients were randomized to receive either iv dexmedetomidine 0.5 mcg/kg (group I; n = 30) or iv lidocaine 2 mg/kg (group II; n = 30) over 10 min. After infusion of test drug, CP with vibrator and manual compression was performed for 2 min and TS was done over next 15-20 s. The hemodynamic response was recorded before, during and at interval of 1 min for 10 min after CP and TS. A 20% change in hemodynamic parameters was considered significant. RESULTS: The baseline hemodynamic (HR, MAP), intracranial (ICP, CPP) and respiratory (SPO2, AWPpeak) parameters were normal and comparable in both the groups. After dexmedetomidine infusion, MAP and CPP decreased significantly from baseline value. In group II, there was no significant change in HR, MAP, ICP and CPP. At end of CP and TS, HR, MAP and CPP in group I was lower as compared to group II. During the 10-min observation period following CP and TS, MAP and CPP in group I remained significantly lower as compared to baseline and group II. There was no significant change in value of other measured parameters. CONCLUSIONS: Both dexmedetomidine and lidocaine were effective to blunt rise in HR, MAP and ICP in response to CP and TS in patients with sTBI. However, intravenous dexmedetomidine caused significant decrease in MAP and CPP as compared to the baseline and lidocaine.
