Comparison of the effects of sevoflurane and propofol anesthesia on pulmonary function MMP-9 and postoperative cognition in patients receiving lung cancer resection

摘要

Effects of sevoflurane and propofol anesthesia on pulmonary function, matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) and postoperative cognition were compared in patients undergoing simple resection of lower lobe of left lung. Retrospective method was used to analyze 58 cases of lung cancer patients treated by simple resection of lower lobe of left lung in the Second Hospital of Dalian Medical University from October 2016 to October 2017, and they were divided into two groups: Sevoflurane group (n=32) with sevoflurane anesthesia and propofol group (n=26) with propofol anesthesia. In the present study, the moment before induction of anesthesia (T1), before the start of one-lung ventilation (T2), before the end of one-lung ventilation (T3), after closed chest surgery (T4), 24 h after surgery (T5), calculate alveolar-arterial oxygen difference (A-aDO2), respiratory index (RI) and intrapulmonary shunt ratio (Qs/Qt), were compared between the two groups. The serum MMP-9 concentration at T1, T4 and T5 were detected by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay. The cognitive function of two groups was assessed by Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) 1 day before surgery and 1 and 10 days after surgery. The A-aDO2 level at T4 in sevoflurane group was significantly higher than that in propofol group (P<0.05). The RI level at T3, T4, the Qs/Qt and the MMP-9 level at T4 in the sevoflurane group was significantly higher than that in the propofol group (P<0.05). The MMSE score in sevoflurane group was significantly lower than that in propofol group 1 and 10 days after surgery (P<0.05). Propofol has little effect on pulmonary function and can decrease inflammatory factor MMP-9. Both sevoflurane and propofol have an effect on cognitive function after lung cancer resection, but propofol can reduce cognitive impairment in patients with lung cancer.
