One hundred and four patients were randomly assigned to maintain target effect-site concentrations of remifentanil at 0 (control ), 1.0 (remifentail 1 ), or 1.5 ng.ml )1 (remifentanil 1.5 ) during emergence. The incidence of coughing was lower in the remifentanil 1.5 (31%) than in the control (74%) or remifentanil 1 (63%) (p = ). In addition, the severity of coughing during extubation was lower in the remifentanil 1.5 (median (IQR [range]) 0 (0 1 [0 1]) than in the control (1 (0 2 [0 3])) and remifentanil 1 (1 (0 2 [0 3])) (p = 0.004). Haemodynamic changes were reduced, but emergence time and stay in the post-anaesthesia care unit was prolonged in the remifentanil 1.5. Maintaining the remifentanil effect-site concentration at 1.5 ng.ml )1 during emergence from sevoflurane-remifentanil anaesthesia reduces the incidence and severity of coughing without serious adverse events and may provide haemodynamic stability in patients undergoing thyroidectomy. However, awakening may be delayed....

Post-thyroidectomy bleeding occurs in 1 4% of patients [1 4] resulting in acute airway obstruction or re-operation, and severe coughing may cause bleeding [1, 4]. Intravenous opioids delivered at the end of surgery may provide smooth emergence by reducing coughing [5, 6], agitation [6] and deleterious haemodynamic changes [7]. However, these agents can also cause depression of ventilation and delay awakening. Remifentanil may be maintained during emergence due to its rapid onset and offset of action [8, 9]. A low-dose manually controlled infusion of remifentanil has been reported to reduce the incidence and severity of coughing during emergence [10]. Due to individual variability, manually controlled infusion is not a reliable technique for determining the optimal infusion rates. Administration of drugs via a target-controlled infusion (TCI) makes it possible to reach a defined target concentration without the concerns that drug levels will rapidly change or increase beyond the intended range [11]. In this randomised, double-blinded, controlled trial, we compared the effects of three effect-site concentrations (Ce) of remifentanil TCI for the optimal dose to suppress coughing without serious adverse effects during emergence from sevoflurane-remifentanil anaesthesia in patients undergoing elective thyroidectomy. 930 Journal compilation Ó 2010 The Association of Anaesthetists of Great Britain and Ireland
2 N. H. Jun et al. Æ Preventing cough with remifentanil during emergence Methods After obtaining approval from our Institutional Review Board and written consent from all patients, a total of 105 patients (ASA physical status 1 2) aged years, scheduled for elective thyroidectomy under general anaesthesia, were randomly allocated to one of three s according to a computer-generated random table. Exclusion criteria included treatment with sedatives, antitussives, or angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors, allergies to any of the drugs used in the study, a history of smoking, chronic cough, asthma, recent respiratory tract infection, predicted difficult intubation, increased risk of aspiration, and significant cardiopulmonary, renal, or hepatic disease. All patients were premedicated with midazolam 0.05 mg.kg )1 intramuscularly 30 min before induction and glycopyrronium 0.2 mg IV immediately before induction of anaesthesia. Patients were monitored with ECG, arterial oxygen saturation (S p O 2 ), oropharyngeal temperature and non-invasive blood pressure. End-expiratory concentrations of carbon dioxide and sevoflurane were continuously measured at the elbow of the breathing circuit with a precalibrated gas monitor (Smart Anaesthesia Multi-Gas (SAM) TM, GE Marquette Medical Systems, Milwaukee, WI, USA) at a sampling flow rate of 250 ml.min )1. For effect-site TCI of remifentanil, a commercial TCI pump (Orchestra Base Primea, Fresenius Vial, Brézins, France) using Minto s pharmacokinetic model was used. General anaesthesia was induced with IV propofol mg.kg )1, lidocaine 20 mg and a effect-site TCI of remifentanil set at 3 ng.ml )1. After loss of verbal response and eyelash reflex, rocuronium 0.6 mg.kg )1 was administered and tracheal intubation was performed in all patients using a 6.0- and 7.0-mm tracheal tube for women and men, respectively. The cuff was inflated with air and the cuff pressure maintained at kpa. Mechanical ventilation was adjusted to maintain the endexpiratory carbon dioxide concentration at kpa. Patients temperature was maintained at 36.5 ± 0.5 C. Anaesthesia was maintained with sevoflurane % and effect-site TCI of remifentanil at ng.ml )1 to maintain blood pressure and heart rate within 20% of baseline values during the surgery. Towards the end of surgery and when suturing of the subcutaneous layer began, the concentration of sevoflurane was reduced to 1.0%. Next, tracheal and oral suctioning was performed, followed by IV administration of ketorolac 1.0 mg.kg )1 and ondansetron 4 mg for pain and postoperative nausea and vomiting. At the beginning of skin suturing, the remifentanil infusion was adjusted according to assignment. In the control the remifentanil was stopped, and the target effects-site was reduced to 1.0 and 1.5 ng.ml )1 in the remifentanil 1 and remifentanil 1.5 s, respectively. After completing skin suturing, the sevoflurane was stopped (time 0). After confirmation of four responses to a train-of-four (TOF) stimulation, glycopyrronium mg.kg )1 and neostigmine 0.02 mg.kg )1 were given to reverse neuromuscular block to an endpoint of a > 90% response in the TOF ratio. After discontinuation of sevoflurane, manual ventilation was performed with 100% oxygen at 4 l.min )1 and patients were stimulated at 30-s intervals either verbally or by gentle tactile stimulation. When patients spontaneously opened their eyes or responded to verbal commands, deep breathing was encouraged and tracheal extubation was performed. After tracheal extubation, remifentanil was stopped in the remifentanil 1 and 1.5 s, oxygen was applied via a facemask, and assisted ventilation was used to maintain end-expiratory CO 2 concentration at kpa. After adequate spontaneous respiration resumed, the patient was transferred to the post-anaesthesia care unit (PACU). The following variables were recorded at five time points: the mean arterial blood pressure, heart rate, S p O 2, spontaneous respiratory rate, end-expiratory CO 2 and sevoflurane concentrations, effect-site and plasma concentration of remifentanil, and the Ramsay Sedation Scale (1 patient is anxious and agitated or restless, or both; 2 patient is co-operative, oriented, and tranquil; 3 patient responds to commands only; 4 patient exhibits brisk response to light glabellar tap or loud auditory stimulus; 5 patient exhibits a sluggish response to light glabellar tap or loud auditory stimulus; 6 patient exhibits no response). These variables were measured at the following time points: before induction; at discontinuation of sevoflurane; at first response to verbal commend or spontaneous eye-opening; immediately before and 5 min after extubation. Emergence time, which was defined from time zero to first response to verbal commands or spontaneous eye-opening, was also recorded. The grades of coughing episodes (0 no coughing; 1 a single cough; 2 more than one episode of non-sustained coughing; 3 sustained and repetitive coughing with head lift) were evaluated at three time points: when the tracheal tube was still present (after the discontinuation of sevoflurane but before the patient s first spontaneous eye opening or response to verbal commands); during extubation; and after extubation. Episodes of bronchospasm, laryngospasm, desaturation (S p O 2 < 90%) or hypoventilation (spontaneous respiratory rate < 8 min )1 ) during emergence were recorded. Two anaesthetists, who were blinded to allocation, independently recorded these variables and performed the extubation.

3 N. H. Jun et al. Æ Preventing cough with remifentanil during emergence Anaesthesia, 2010, 65, pages The following variables were recorded at the time of admission to the PACU, 5 min after admission, and just before discharge: mean arterial pressure, heart rate, Ramsay Sedation Scale, S p O 2, spontaneous respiratory rate, presence of postoperative nausea and vomiting, verbal numerical rating scale scores for pain (11-point scale, 0 10), and use of analgesics. Fentanyl 1 lg.kg )1 was given when pain scores exceeded 5 or a patient requested analgesics. Patients were discharged from the PACU by a physician when their Aldrete score was 9 [12]. The incidence of coughing during emergence from sevoflurane anaesthesia has been reported as 59% [13]. Assuming that 50% reduction would be clinically significant and permitting a type-i error of a = 0.05 and a type-ii error of b = 0.2 (a power of 80%) required 31 patients per. Taking into account of the possibility of patients withdrawal, we assigned 35 patients to each. Statistical analyses were performed with the SPSS package, version 13.0 (SPSS Inc, Chicago, IL, USA). Continuous variables were analysed using analysis of variance. Categorical data were analysed using Fisher s exact test or chi-squared test as appropriate. Repeated measures ANOVA with Bonferroni correction was employed for mean arterial pressure, heart rate and respiratory rate. If significant differences were detected, differences between two s were compared by independent t-test with Bonferroni correction. Pain scores were analysed by Kruskal-Wallis tests. A value of p < 0.05 was considered significant. Results A total of 104 patients completed the study. One patient (in the remifentanil 1 ) was excluded because of a combined mastectomy. Patient and operative characteristics were similar among the three s (Table 1). When sevoflurane was discontinued, the ratio of the Cp (plasma concentration) to Ce was in the remifentanil 1 and 1.5 s, and 0.7 in the control. The mean (SD) effect-site remifentanil concentration during tracheal extubation was 0.6 (0.1) ng.ml )1 in the control, 1.0 (0.0) ng.ml )1 in the remifentatnil 1, and 1.5 (0.0) ng.ml )1 in the remifentanil 1.5. Data on emergence are given in Table 2. The number of patients with cough during emergence was lower in the remifentanil 1.5 than in the others s. There were no patients with severe cough (grade 3) in the remifentanil 1.5. The severity of cough grade Table 1 Patients characteristics and operation details. Values are mean (SD) or number.

Discussion The results of this study demonstrate that using a targetcontrolled infusion of remifentanil at an effect-site of 1.5 ng.ml )1 during emergence reduces the incidence and severity of coughing without clinically significant complications after sevoflurane-remifentanil anaesthesia in patients undergoing elective thyroidectomy. However, remifentanil 1.5 ng.ml )1 was associated with delayed emergence and discharge from the PACU. A remifentanil Ce of 1.0 ng.ml )1 delayed emergence but did not suppress coughing. Coughing is mediated by superficial receptors found throughout the trachea [14] and through vagal afferent pathways that terminate in the brainstem respiratory centre [15]. Intravenous opioids are one method for preventing cough during emergence, acting on opioid receptors in both the brainstem [16] and peripheral sensory nerve endings [17]. Sharjar et al. [18] demonstrated that a single bolus of remifentanil 0.1 lg.kg )1 reduces haemodynamic instability during emergence and delays emergence from isoflurane-based anaesthesia, but fails to reduce coughing. The high clearance of remifentanil [8, 9], combined with its small steady-state distribution volume, makes it difficult to maintain a sufficient plasma or effect-site concentration to suppress coughing after a single bolus dose. Continuous remifentanil infusion has been widely used as an adjunct to general anaesthesia and may be more appropriate during emergence. Aouad et al. [10] demonstrated that a low-dose infusion of remifentanil during emergence suppresses coughing and provides a smooth emergence from isoflurane-based anaesthesia. They maintained remifentanil at one tenth of the mean dose, which was calculated at the end of the surgery by dividing the total dose administered during maintenance by the patient s weight and the duration of surgery. Calculation of the mean dose is problematic and due to individual variability a manually controlled infusion is not a reliable technique for determining the optimal infusion rate. For continuous infusion of remifentanil, TCI is a safer and more predictable method to avoid overdosing compared with a manually controlled infusion [19]. We found that maintaining remifentanil Ce at 1.5 ng.ml )1 during emergence resulted in a 50% reduction in the incidence of coughing and no episodes of severe coughing (grade 3). In contrast, maintaining remifentanil Ce at 1.0 ng.ml )1 did not reduce the incidence or severity of coughing. Although remifentanil was discontinued before emergence in the control, the predicted effect-site concentration was not zero at extubation. Lee et al. [20] demonstrated that the EC 50 and EC 95 of remifentanil Ce for suppressing cough during emergence from propofol-remifentanil anaesthesia was 1.54 and 2.14 ng.ml )1 respectively, using Dixon s up and down method. The incidence of coughing at an effect site concentration of 1.5 ng.ml )1 in our study was lower than in Lee s study, although coughs during emergence are more frequent [21] or more severe [13] after sevoflurane than after propofol-based anaesthesia. Patient and anaesthetic characteristics in both studies were similar except the inclusion of male patients in our study. The factors responsible for differences between our study and others include the sample size and the methodology used to investigate the optimal effect-site of remifentanil, as well as the smaller tracheal tube size used in this study. We found that maintaining a low (1.0 and 1.5 ng.ml )1 ) effect-site concentration of remifentanil during emergence did not affect the level of sedation after extubation. It did delay emergence, but there was no clinical significance. However, a remifentanil Ce of 1.5 ng.ml )1 prolonged PACU stay. Although the spontaneous respiratory rate was slightly reduced with a remifentanil effect-site concentration of 1.5 ng.ml )1 compared with the control at 5 min after extubation, respiratory rate recovered after awakening the patient.

6 N. H. Jun et al. Æ Preventing cough with remifentanil during emergence may attenuate haemodynamic disturbance, especially tachycardia [10, 18, 20]. Maintaining a remifentanil Ce of 1.5 ng.ml )1 did not increase the incidence of nausea and vomiting, and all patients were discharged from the PACU without experiencing any adverse events. There are some limitations to the present study. Firstly, we did not measure plasma concentrations of remifentanil. Rather, we used the predicted value using Minto s pharmacokinetic model which is widely used in clinical settings with an acceptable level of bias and inaccuracy [22]. Secondly, pharmacogenetic characteristics such as opioid sensitivity may exhibit ethnic variations and our study sample was of Asian descent. Third, we tested only two concentrations of remifentanil. Based on the results of Lee et al. [20], higher effect-site concentrations of remifentanil may be more effective without increasing side effects. In conclusion, maintaining the predicted effect-site concentration of remifentanil at 1.5 ng.ml )1 during emergence from sevoflurane-remifentanil anaesthesia suppressed coughing without serious adverse events in patients undergoing elective thyroidectomy. However, this was associated with delayed awakening. Competing interests No external funding and no competing interests declared. References 1 Lee HS, Lee BJ, Kim SW, et al.
