Objective: To study the changes of blood concentration of glucose and insulin during brain tumor resection under propofol or isoflurane anesthesia.Methods:Thirty patients scheduled for brain tumor resection were randomized to propofol group (n=15) and isoflurane group (n=15) respectively.Venous blood samples were taken for the measurement of blood concentration of glucose and insulin before induction
after intubation
at 30 and 60 min during anesthetic maintenance respectively.Results:Blood concentration of glucose in propofol group and blood concentration of insulin in isoflurane group were not significantly changed.In isoflurane group
however
blood concentration of glucose increased significantly at 30
60min
( P <0.05 and P <0.01)and in propofol group insulin increased significantly at 60 min ( P <0.05).Conclusion:The blood sugar concentration significantly increases in isoflurane anesthesia
but there is no significant change in propofol anesthesia.Therefore propofol anesthesia is more suitable for brain surgery.
