Abstract:Objective To observe the effects of different sedative drugs on cardiovascular effects in patients with non-ST-segment elevation acute coronary syndrome (NSTE-ACS) and mechanical ventilation. Methods Forty-seven patients with mechanically assisted ventilation NSTE-ACS in Changsha First Hospital were randomly divided into Dexmedetomidine group (group D, 24 cases) and propofol group (group p, 23 cases). All the 47 patients were treated with Fentanyl analgesia and monitored continuously using a dynamic electrocardiogram and picco. The differences in arrhythmia, acute myocardial ischemia, hemodynamics, mechanical ventilation time, ICU hospitalization, sputum incidence and 28-day survival rate were compared. Results There were differences in arrhythmia and acute myocardial ischemia between the two groups. The frequency of supraventricular tachyarrhythmia (8.04 ± 6.05) VS (13.48 ± 10.44) and acute myocardial ischemia (3.58 ± 3.26) VS (5.74 ± 3.84) in group D were significantly lower than those in group P (P < 0.05). There was no significant difference between two groups in Sinus bradycardia, frequent ventricular premature beat, and Ventricular tachycardia (P > 0.05). The cardiac index in group D was significantly higher than that in group P 12 hours after in ICU (T12 h) (2.76 ± 0.27) VS (2.59 ± 0.19 L/min?m 2 ) (P < 0.05). There was no significant difference between two groups in systemic vascular resistance index at T12 h (P > 0.05). There was no significant difference between two groups in mechanical ventilation time and 28 days survival rate (P < 0.05). The delirium (12.5% VS 34.8%) and ICU length of hospital stay (8.10 ± 1.03) VS (9.47 ± 1.56 d) in group D were significantly lower than that in group P (P < 0.05). Conclusion In the sedation of NSTE-ACS patients requiring mechanical ventilation, Dexmedetomidine hydrochloride has a lower incidence of rapid supraventricular arrhythmias and acute myocardial ischemia, as compared with Propofol. Heart function effects can reduce the incidence of sputum in the ICU and shorten the hospital stay in the ICU.
