Abstract

The present study aimed to investigate the impact of various doses of dexmedetomidine (DEX) on ropivacaine (ROP)‑induced lumbar plexus‑sciatic nerve block (LSB). A total of 80 patients who underwent ankle surgery under LSB were divided into group R (applied with 30 ml 5% ROP), Dex1 (30 ml 0.5% ROP + 1 µg/kg DEX), Dex2 (30 ml 0.5% ROP + 1.5 µg/kg DEX) and Dex3 (30 ml 0.5% ROP + 2 µg/kg DEX), with 20 cases in each group. The onset time and duration of sensory and motor block, mean arterial pressure (MAP), heart rate (HR), oxygen saturation, Ramsay score, serum vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) level and adverse reactions in the four groups were observed. Results demonstrated that the durations of sensory and motor block in group R were shorter than those in groups Dex1‑3 (P<0.01), followed by the sequence of group Dex1
