Overview
This project investigates intentionally hypotensive management such as NTG (nitroglycerin) or NTG+Trandate during general anesthesia in patients undergoing orthognathic surgery. Throughout the entire surgical procedure, blood biochemical and urine monitoring will be conducted. Serum creatinine (Cr) levels, urine analysis, and perioperative monitoring will be utilized as indicators for assessing renal function during the surgery. The objective is to assess its potential renal injury and identify early risk factors for acute kidney injury (AKI). Timely recognition of these factors will allow for the implementation of appropriate intervention strategies, aiding in the prevention of postoperative acute kidney injury. This approach contributes to achieving the goals of Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) for surgical patients, promoting faster postoperative recovery.
Description
Orthognathic surgery is currently a common procedure in oral and maxillofacial surgery. The facial region is composed of a complex and dense vascular network, requiring precise, accurate, and delicate surgical techniques on both hard and soft tissues. During intraoral procedures, the surgical field may be limited, making the management of surgical bleeding challenging. Controlled hypotension or hypotensive anesthesia is often employed during major maxillofacial surgeries to optimize conditions. Lowering blood pressure is advantageous as it helps reduce overall blood loss and improves the surgeon's visibility. Therefore, maintaining stable blood pressure within the ideal range during the surgical process is a critical anesthesia objective.
This research emphasizes the prevention of acute kidney injury (AKI) in patients undergoing orthognathic surgery with intentional hypotension during general anesthesia. The goal is to detect the potential renal damage at an early stages, before a significant decline in kidney function occurs, thereby reducing the likelihood of acute kidney injury.
