Pravitharangul C. Karnjanarachata P. Areeruk S. Thananuwong R. Komonhirun Faculty of Medicine, Ramathibodi Hospital, Mahidol University Medicine © JOURNAL OF THE MEDICAL ASSOCIATION OF THAILAND Objective: To determine the efficacy of a single bolus ephedrine on body temperature reduction attenuation during arthroscopic knee and ankle surgery under spinal anesthesia. Materials and Methods: The present study was a single-center prospective randomized clinical trial. Patients undergoing arthroscopic ankle or knee surgery were randomized to receive a single intravenous bolus dose of placebo (normal saline) or ephedrine 9 milligrams (mg) just after a subarachnoid injection for spinal anesthesia. Tympanic membrane temperature and blood pressure were recorded at time points. Two-way repeated-measures ANOVAs was performed to analyze the difference of temperature at time points compared with before performing spinal block as primary outcome. Results: Forty patients were randomized, and 34 patients were included in outcome analysis (control n=18 and ephedrine n=16). Patients in the ephedrine group demonstrated better body temperature preservation. The earliest significant effect could be seen 7.5 minutes after the spinal block (control group –0.32±0.39℃ and ephedrine group –0.24±0.5℃, p=0.007). The ephedrine effect on blood pressure was subtle. Conclusion: For patients undergoing knee or ankle arthroscopic surgery, a single bolus 9 mg of ephedrine given intravenously just after the subarachnoid injection for spinal anesthesia can preserve core temperature. 2020-03-26T05:01:47Z 2020-03-26T05:01:47Z 2020-01-01 Article Journal of the Medical Association of Thailand.
