Brief summary

The purpose of this study is to determine effect of combined medication of sufentanil and dexmedetomidine in patient controlled analgesia after neurosurgery.

Detailed description

Sufentanil is a classical drug for postoperative analgesia. Dexmedetomidine is a commonly used α2-adrenergic receptor, and it helps provide sedation, analgesia and inhibition of sympathetic activation. The investigators propose to recruit 120 patients who is undergoing the arteriovenous malformation embolism operation in department of Neurosurgery. Patients will be randomly divided into 4 groups(control group, sufentanil and low dexmedetomidine dose group, sufentanil and middle dexmedetomidine dose group, sufentanil and high dexmedetomidine dose group), then the investigators select post-operative records to determine whether dexmedetomidine can take a positive role in neurosurgical analgesia.

Interventions

DRUGSufentanil

sufentanil 150μg, intravenous administration during post-operative 72 hours.

dexmedetomidine 0.05μg/kg/h, Continuous intravenous injection for 72 hours after operation

dexmedetomidine 0.1μg/kg/h, Continuous intravenous injection for 72 hours after operation

DRUGdexmedetomidine 3

dexmedetomidine 0.15μg/kg/h, Continuous intravenous injection for 72 hours after operation recorded in the following 72h.
