Anesthetics in Rhytidoplasty - A Comparison Study

Brief Summary

This study is a prospective, double-blind, randomized comparison study of different anesthesia methods in rhytidoplasty surgery. The study is designed to determine whether post-operative side-effect profiles in patients undergoing elective cosmetic facelift surgery can be decreased through the use of propofol/ketamine anesthesia with bispectral monitoring (PKA-BIS) rather than general anesthesia, without increasing intra-operative time, side-effect profiles, or patient recall. Approximately 30 subjects undergoing facelift surgery performed by the principal investigator will participate.

    Responsible Party: N/A

    PKA-BIS arm receives the following medications:

    clonidine 0.1-0.2mg glycopyrrolate 0.2mg propofol infusion titrated to BIS of 60-75 ketamine 50mg + additional ketamine not to exceed 200mg aggregate dosage throughout the case local anesthetic (lidocaine/marcaine mix)

    General Anesthesia arm receives the following medications:

    Pre-operatively:

    Pepcid 20mg Scopolamine 1.5mg transdermal patch Versed 2mg Zofran 8mg Reglan 10mg Glycopyrrolate - dose determined by anesthesiologist

    During the case, medication choices and dosing were dependent on the anesthesiologist - all general anesthesia cases received inhalational anesthetic (type of anesthetic also varied based on anesthesiologist's choice)

    Participant Groups

    • Received the following medications: clonidine 0.1-0.2mg glycopyrrolate 0.2mg propofol infusion titrated to BIS of 60-75 ketamine 50mg + additional ketamine not to exceed 200mg aggregate dosage throughout the case local anesthetic (lidocaine/marcaine mix)

    • Received the following: Pre-operatively: famotidine 20mg scopolamine 1.5mg transdermal patch midazolam 2mg ondansetron 8mg metoclopramide 10mg glycopyrrolate - dose determined by anesthesiologist During the case, medication choices and dosing were dependent on the anesthesiologist - all general anesthesia cases received inhalational anesthetic (type of anesthetic - desfluorane vs. sevofluorane - also varied based on anesthesiologist's choice)
