Anesthesia for Loop Electrosurgical Excision Procedure (LEEP).

To investigate the efficacy and safety of propofol combined with different doses of esketamine (ESK) for anesthesia during loop electrosurgical excision procedure (LEEP). Ninety female patients undergoing LEEP were randomly allocated to three groups: group P (2 mg/kg propofol + saline), group propofol + esketamine(PK)1 (1.5 mg/kg propofol + 0.5 mg/kg ESK), and group PK2 (1.5 mg/kg propofol + 0.25 mg/kg ESK). Parameters including mean arterial pressure (MAP), heart rate (HR), respiratory rate (RR), oxygen saturation (SPO2), and venous carbon dioxide (PvCO2) were recorded. Additionally, the need for supplemental propofol, jaw thrust maneuver or ventilation, postoperative awakening time, and adverse reactions were assessed.
