Atenolol Group

A double-blind, randomised, controlled trial of forty patients was carried out to determine if oral atenolol pretreatment would reduce the incidence of tachycardia during carotid endarterectomy performed under cervical plexus block. Twenty patients received a placebo and twenty patients 50 mg of atenolol two hours prior to surgery. The superficial and deep cervical blocks were performed with 1.5% lignocaine containing 1:200,000 adrenaline. The patients were monitored with the V5 lead of the electrocardiogram and intraarterial blood pressure. These measurements were recorded on a correctly calibrated paper recorder. Tachycardia (heart rate > 90 beats per minute for more than three minutes) occurred in thirteen patients in the placebo group and two patients in the atenolol group (P<0.01). There was no difference in the occurrence of bradycardia, hypotension or hypertension between the two groups. It is concluded that atenolol pretreatment is an effective method of reducing the incidence of tachycardia during carotid endarterectomy performed under cervical plexus blockade.

IntroductionScalp nerve block has been proven to be an alternative choice to opioids in multimodal analgesia. However, for the infratentorial space-occupying craniotomy, especially the suboccipital retrosigmoid craniotomy, scalp nerve block is insufficient.Methods and analysisThe study is a prospective, single-centre, randomised, paralleled-group controlled trial. Patients scheduled to receive elective suboccipital retrosigmoid craniotomy will be randomly assigned to the superficial cervical plexus block group or the control group. After anaesthesia induction, superficial cervical plexus nerve block will be performed under the guidance of ultrasound. The primary outcome is the cumulative consumption of sufentanil by the patient-controlled intravenous analgesia pump within 24 hours after surgery. Secondary outcomes include the cumulative consumption of sufentanil at other four time points and numerical rating scale pain severity score.Ethics and disseminationThe protocol (version number: 2.0, 10 April 2019) has been approved by the Ethics Review Committee of China Registered Clinical Trials (Ethics Review No. ChiECRCT-20190047). The findings of this study will be disseminated in peer-reviewed journals and at scientific conferences.Trial registration numberNCT04036812
