Comparison of Complications between Total Intravenous Anaesthesia and Combined Intravenous and Inhalation Anaesthesia after Renal Biopsy in Children

The objective of this study was to examine the influence of total intravenous anaesthesia (TIVA) compared to combined intravenous and inhalation anaesthesia (CIIA) in paediatric patients undergoing renal biopsy. A total of 86 children with nephrotic syndrome, acute glomerulonephritis, chronic glomerulonephritis, IgG nephropathy, systemic lupus erythematosus and purpura nephritis were selected from January 2018 to January 2023 in our hospital. All children were divided into the total intravenous anaesthesia group and intravenous inhalational anaesthesia group according to the anaesthesia method. The experimental group comprised 46 children with renal diseases who underwent static aspiration compound anaesthesia during renal biopsy at our hospital from January 2018 to January 2023. Conversely, the control group included 40 children with renal diseases who underwent total intravenous anaesthesia during renal biopsy at the hospital within the same period. Hemodynamic parameters, such as mean arterial pressure (MAP), heart rate (HR), and oxygen saturation (SPO ), were assessed at four different time points: Before anesthesia induction (T0), during anesthesia induction (T1), after anesthesia induction (T2), and at the conclusion of the surgery (T3). Puncture success rate, time to renal puncture, time to get out of bed, postoperative recovery from anaesthesia (including time to postoperative awakening and time to return to spontaneous respiration) and incidence of adverse anaesthetic reactions were also included. We observed notable variations in HR and MAP at T2 and T3, as well as SPO levels, duration of awakening from anaesthesia and time taken to resume spontaneous respiration between the two groups at T2 ( < 0.05). No statistically significant variances were detected between the two groups concerning adverse reactions to anaesthesia, puncture success rate, duration to renal puncture and time to mobilisation from bed ( > 0.05). In conclusion, compared with the total intravenous anaesthesia, the implementation of the sedation-aspiration-combined anaesthesia in renal biopsy in children with renal disease features less haemodynamic fluctuation, better postoperative anaesthesia recovery and does not increase the incidence of adverse reactions.
