Abstract

Intravenous administration of rocuronium often leads to injection pain. We investigated the effect of diphenhydramine pretreatment, reducing the incidence of pain on rocuronium injection. This randomized study was carried out on ASA I-II, 60 adult patients for elective surgery under general anesthesia. Patients were divided into two groups, thirty patients in each. After tournique application on forearm and inflation to 70 mmHg, 2 ml saline, 2 ml (20 mg) diphenhydramine were given in Group S (n=30) and Group D (n=30) respectively. 30 seconds after the pretreatment, tournique was deflated and 10 mg rocuronium was injected over 10 seconds. The patients were asked immediately to assess pain with 4 point pain scale. No significant differences were noted in the number of patiens who had no pain and mild pain in group S and D (p>0.05). Number of patients who had moderate and severe pain was higher in Group S than Group D (p<0.001). We concluded that; pretreatment with 20 mg diphenhydramine is effective in reducing pain caused by the intravenous injection of rocuronium.

Özet

İntravenöz rokuronyum uygulaması sıklıkla enjeksiyon ağrısına yol açmaktadır. Bu çalışmada rokuronyum enjeksiyon ağrısını önlemede difenhidraminin etkisini araştırmayı amaçladık. ASA Ι- ΙΙ grubu, erişkin elektif genel anestezi planlanan 60 hasta rastgele olarak iki gruba ayrıldı. Grup S (n=30)’ye 2 ml serum fizyolojik, Grup D (n=30)’ye 2ml (20 mg) difenhidramin i.v enjeksiyonu 10 saniye sürede verilirken aynı anda tansiyon manşonu 30 saniye süre ile 70 mmHg basınçla şişirildi. Manşon indirildikten sonra 10 mg rokuronyum 10 saniyede i.v. yol ile uygulandı. Hastalardan ağrılarının şiddetini 4 puanlı ağrı skalası ile değerlendirmeleri istendi. Hiç ağrı olmayan ve hafif ağrı tanımlayan olgu sayıları bakımından gruplar arasında fark yok iken (p>0.05), orta ve şiddetli ağrı tanımlayan hastaların sayısı Grup S’de Grup D’ye göre anlamlı olarak yüksekti (р<0.001). Önceden 20 mg difenhidramin uygulamasının rokuronyum enjeksiyon ağrısını azalttığı sonucuna varıldı.
