Hemodynamic Stability

Purpose/Background Direct laryngoscopy and endotracheal intubation after induction of anesthesia can cause a reflex sympathetic surge of catecholamines caused by airway stimulation. This may cause hypertension, tachycardia, and arrhythmias. This reflex can be detrimental in patients with poor cardiac reserve and can be poorly tolerated and lead to adverse events such as myocardial ischemia. Fentanyl, a potent opioid, with a rapid onset and short duration of action is given during induction to block the sympathetic response. With a rise in the opioid crisis and finding ways to change the practice in medicine to use less opioids, dexmedetomidine, an alpha 2 adrenergic agonist, can decrease the release of norepinephrine, has analgesic properties, and can lower the heart rate. Methods In this scoping review, studies published between 2009 and 2021 that compared fentanyl and dexmedetomidine during general anesthesia induction and endotracheal intubation of surgical patients over the age of 18 were included. Full text, peer-reviewed studies in English were included with no limit on country of study. The outcomes included post-operative reviews of decrease in pain medication usage and hemodynamic stability. Studies that were included focused on hemodynamic variables such as systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, mean arterial pressure, heart rate, and use of opioids post-surgery. Result Of 2,114 results from our search, 10 articles were selected based on multiple eligibility criteria of age greater than 18, patients undergoing endotracheal intubation after induction of general anesthesia, and required either a dose of dexmedetomidine or fentanyl to be given prior to intubation. Dexmedetomidine was shown to effectively attenuate the sympathetic surge during intubation over fentanyl. Dexmedetomidine showed a greater reduction in heart rate, systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, mean arterial pressure than fentanyl, causing better hemodynamic stability in patients undergoing elective surgery.Implications for Nursing Practice Findings during this scoping review indicate that dexmedetomidine is a safe and effective alternative to fentanyl during induction of general anesthesia and endotracheal intubation in attenuating the hemodynamic response. It is also a safe choice for opioid-free anesthesia.

Background: The ideal method to prevent hypotension due to intravenous propofol for induction of anesthesia is still debatable. The aim of the study was to compare the hemodynamic response of ephedrine and volume loading with ringer lactate in preventing the hypotension caused by propofol as inducing agent in patients scheduled for elective surgeries requiring general anesthesia with endotracheal intubation.Methods: This was prospective randomized study conducted in 40 patients of ASA physical status I, aged 20-50 years, scheduled for elective surgeries requiring general anesthesia with endotracheal intubation. Group I received intravenous ephedrine sulphate (70 mcg/kg) just before induction of anaesthesia, and patients assigned to Group II received preloading with Ringer's lactate (12 ml/kg) over the 10-15 minutes before the administration of propofol. The variables compared were heart rate, systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, mean arterial pressure following induction of anesthesia till 10 minutes after intubation of trachea.Results: We found that there were increase in systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure and mean arterial pressure after induction in both the groups but the difference between the groups was not significant. The increase in heart rate was found to be significantly higher in ephedrine group in comparison to volume loading group.Conclusion: Our study showed that both the methods used were equally effective in preventing hypotension induced by propofol in the adult ASA physical status I patients requiring general anesthesia with endotracheal intubation. However, the heart rate was significantly higher in patients receiving ephedrine in comparison to volume loading group.

BACKGROUND The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the efficacy of intravenous lignocaine 1.5 mg / kg & intravenous dexmedetomidine 1 mcg / kg for attenuating the haemodynamic response to laryngoscopy & endotracheal intubation in patients undergoing elective surgery under general anaesthesia. METHODS In this prospective randomised, comparative, clinical study, 60 patients were randomly divided into 2 groups, among them 30 patients were given infusion of 1.5 mg / kg IV lignocaine, diluted to 10 ml with normal saline, 3 minutes before intubation & 30 patients were given infusion of dexmedetomidine 1 mcg / kg diluted to 25 ml in normal saline over 10 minutes through infusion pump before induction. The heart rate, systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, mean arterial pressure, rate pressure product, oxygen saturation were measured at baseline, after study drug intubation at L + 1, L + 3, L + 5, L + 7 & L + 10 (L is onset of laryngoscopy). Statistical analysis was done by using descriptive & inferential statistics using chisquare test, Students paired & unpaired t test to find out the significance of the five variables namely mean heart rate (HR), mean systolic blood pressure (SBP), mean diastolic blood pressure (DBP), mean arterial pressure (MAP) and mean rate pressure product (RPP). RESULTS Dexmedetomidine provided better blunting of stress response during laryngoscopy and intubation without causing clinically significant respiratory depression, bradycardia or hypotension. It is better in achieving a low RPP, which is a good predictor of myocardial oxygen consumption. Dexmedetomidine provides better cardio-protection in patients against pressure response than lignocaine. CONCLUSIONS In these 60 patients, dexmedetomidine (1 mcg / kg) was found to be superior to lignocaine (1.5 mg / kg) for attenuation of pressor response.

Background: Cardiovascular stress due to reflex sympathetic over activity is a great concern during laryngoscopy and endotracheal intubation. Aims and Objectives: To compare the efficacy and safety of esmolol and verapamil for attenuation of hemodynamic effects (heart rate, systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure and mean arterial pressure) due to laryngoscopy and endotracheal intubation in elective surgical cases. Materials and Methods: A prospective, randomized, double blinded, controlled study was conducted on 60 patients divided equally into 30 each receiving esmolol (2 mg/kg body weight) and verapamil (0.1 mg/kg body weight) respectively. Heart rate, systolic and diastolic blood pressure and mean arterial pressure were recordedat pre-operative stage, after administration of the study drugs, immediately after intubation and at 1 ,3 ,5 minutes after intubation. Data collected were statistically analyzed. Results: The mean systolic blood pressure was lower in the esmolol group at all times of estimation compared with the verapamil group and the difference was at the time of intubation (p value <0.001).The mean diastolic blood pressure was lower in the esmolol group at all times of estimation compared to the verapamil group which was not statistically significant at any time of estimation. The mean arterial pressure was significantly lower at the time of immediately after intubation (p<0.001) in esmolol as compared to verapamil group. Adverse effects in both the study groups were insignificant. Conclusion: Esmololand Verapamil can effectively attenuate the cardiovascular stress to laryngoscopy and endotracheal intubation with the former appears to be a better alternative from efficacy and safety perspectives.

Objective: To compare the hemodynamic effects of Atracurium versus Cisatracurium in Cardiac Patients Undergoing coronary artery bypass graft Surgery. Study Design: Randomized controlled trial. Place and Duration of Study: The study was conducted at Armed Forces Institute of Rawalpindi, a tertiary care hospital, after seeking hospital ethics committee permission, from Apr 2019 to Oct 2019. Methodology: A total of 200 consecutive patients were randomized into two equal groups, group-A and group-C (100 in each group). Group-A patients were induced with 0.5mg/kg of Atracurium, followed by infusion @ 10μg/kg/min whereas group C patients received Cisatracurium @ 0.2mg/kg at induction, followed by infusion @ 2μg/kg/min during the maintainence phase. Systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, Mean arterial pressure and heart rate were noted at different intervals of both groups. Decrease in systolic blood pressure of >20% from baseline or a value <90 mmHg was considered as hypotension. Results: The mean age of patients was 57.5 ± 6.75 years and 56.52 ± 4.46 years in group A and group C respectively. Systolic and diastolic blood pressure was better maintained with cisatracurium than atracurium. Also Mean arterial pressure remained more stable with cisatracurium (p<0.05), but after opening of sternum and before going on cardiopulmonary bypass, the difference was insignificant in both groups (p>0.05). Heart rate remained more steady with cisatracurium (p<0.05) but had insignificant difference before going on cardiopulmonary bypass (p>0.05). Conclusion: Cisatracurium found to be more suitable drug in maintaining the stable hemodynamics and preventing fluctuations in pressure in cardiac patients undergoing on-pump bypass surgery.

Background and Aims: We conducted a prospective, randomized, double-blind and controlled trial to compare the effects of oral clonidine and gabapentin as premedication in obtunding hemodynamic response to laryngoscopy and intubation in normotensive patients undergoing elective surgery. We also compared the preoperative anxiety and sedation status between these two drugs.Materials and Methods: A total of 60 patients of American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) physical status I, aged 20 -50 years of either sex enrolled in the study were randomly divided into two groups of 30 each. Group A patients received oral clonidine 200 mcg and Group B patients received oral gabapentin 900 mg, 90 minutes prior to induction of anesthesia. The heart rate, systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure and mean arterial pressure were observed and recorded pre and post endotracheal intubation. Anxiety and sedation score were noted after 60 minutes of oral administration of drug as well as before induction of anesthesia.Results: Both groups were matched for age, sex, weight and intubation time. Anxiety score and sedation score before induction were significantly better in clonidine group as compared with gabapentin group. Also oral clonidine attenuated the increase in heart rate, systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure and mean arterial pressure better than oral gabapentin (p<0.05).Conclusion: Oral clonidine provided good attenuation of hemodynamic response to laryngoscopy and intubation as compared with oral gabapentin. Also clonidine is better agent as anxiolytic and sedative than gabapentin.Anwer Khan Modern Medical College Journal Vol. 9, No. 2: Jul 2018, P 131-136

Objectives: Etomidate is the sedative agent of choice during rapid sequence intubation (RSI) owing to its hemodynamic stability, rapid onset of action, and short duration of action. Nevertheless, ketamine is rapidly gaining popularity as an alternative agent, primarily because of its catecholamine-mediated effects. This feature has prompted clinicians to use ketamine for hemodynamically unstable patients. The aim of this study was to compare the percent change in hemodynamic parameters resulting from the use of etomidate versus ketamine during RSI in the emergency department. Methods: This cross-sectional prospective observational study conducted at an academic emergency department included patients recruited from March 2018 through May 2019 on a convenience basis when the principal investigator was scheduled to work in the emergency department. Results: Our study showed a percent reduction in all hemodynamic parameters with the use of ketamine: -13.14% in systolic blood pressure, -10.40% in diastolic blood pressure, -10.15% in mean arterial pressure, and -1.12% in heart rate. Moreover, the rate of ≥ 20% reduction in hemodynamic parameters with ketamine was 27.27% in systolic blood pressure, 18.18% in diastolic blood pressure, 18.18% in mean arterial pressure, and 27.27% in heart rate. Conclusions: Although ketamine has a sympathomimetic effect, it may cause hemodynamic instability in select patients. Therefore, caution is advised when using ketamine routinely during RSI, especially in critically ill patients in the emergency department.

ABSTRACTObjective: During laparoscopic surgeries, pneumoperitoneum can lead to various pathophysiologic changes in the cardiovascular system resulting inhypertension and tachycardia. Search for ideal drug to prevent this hemodynamic response goes on. The aim of our study was to evaluate the effect oforally administered moxonidine in attenuating the hemodynamic responses that occur during the laparoscopic surgeries.Methods: A total of 50 adult acetylsalicylic acid I and II patients scheduled for elective laparoscopic surgeries were selected for this prospectiverandomized double-blinded study. They were randomly allocated into two groups: moxonidine group (M) and placebo group (P). M group receivedoral moxonidine 0.3 mg at 8 pm on the day before surgery and at 8 am on the day of surgery. P group received a placebo at the same timing as that ofthe M group.Results: Following pneumoperitoneum rise in systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic BP (DBP), mean arterial pressure (MAP), and heart rate (HR)was higher in P group in comparison to M group which was statistically significant.Conclusion: Significant rise in HR, SBP, DBP, and mean BP was noted in the P group in comparison to moxonidine group. Moxonidine provided betterperioperative hemodynamic stability in patients undergoing laparoscopic surgeries.Keywords: Moxonidine, Stress response, Laparoscopic.

Background: The common adverse effects of spinal anaesthesia include hypotension and bradycardia are due to sympathetic nerve blockade and activation of the Bezold-Jarisch reflex. The Bezold-Jarisch reflex in spinal anaesthesia may be mediated by peripheral 5-HT3 type serotonin receptors. We hypothesized that blockade of type 3 serotonin receptors by using intravenous Granisetron might reduce hypotension and bradycardia induced by spinal anaesthesia.Methodology: Sixty American Society of Anesthesiologists Physical Status I and II patients undergoing lower abdominal surgeries were randomized to receive either Normal Saline (control) or Granisetron 40 mcg/kg intravenously five minutes before subarachnoid block. Heart rates, systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, mean arterial pressure was recorded every two minutes for ten minutes and then every five minutes for another twenty minutes. Hemodynamic parameters were compared with baseline in each group.Results: There was decrease in all measured variables when compared with baseline values in both groups. There was less reduction in diastolic blood pressure in Granisetron group statistically significant at 10, 15, 20, 25 and 30 minutes. However, the less decrease in mean arterial pressure was statistically significant at 30 minutes only. There were no significant differences in systolic blood pressure and heart rate values between the groups.Conclusions: Granisetron given intravenously does not decrease the incidence of hypotension and bradycardia following subarachnoid block in patients undergoing lower abdominal surgery. However, it attenuates the fall of diastolic and mean arterial pressure spinal anaesthesia.Journal of Society of Anesthesiologists 2014 1(1): 36-39

We measured resting and exercise haemodynamics, as well as 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure, so as to study the influence on development of hypertension in children after repair of coarctation by either construction of a subclavian flap or end-to-end anastamosis. The patients in both groups were studied a mean time of 13 years after surgery. Thus, we divided 43 children who had undergone surgical repair of coarctation, and who were not on antihypertensive therapy, into a group of 22 patients who had undergone subclavian flap repair, with a mean age of 14 plus or minus 2.6 years, and another group of 21 patients undergoing end-to-end anastomosis, with a mean age of 13.5 plus or minus 3.9 years. We examined blood pressure at rest and during exercise, along with the measurement of cardiac output using impedance cardiography, and during 24-hour ambulatory monitoring. We recorded systolic and diastolic blood pressures, pulse pressure, cardiac output and total peripheral vascular resistance at rest and at peak exercise. During ambulatory monitoring, we measured mean pressures over 24 hours, in daytime and nighttime, 24-hour pulse pressure, and 24-hour mean arterial pressure. Student's t test was used to judge significance, accepting this when p was less than 0.05. The group repaired using the subclavian flap showed significantly disadvantageous differences for diastolic blood pressure at rest, systolic blood pressure at peak exercise and for 24-hour systolic and diastolic blood pressure, 24-hour mean arterial pressure, and daytime and nighttime systolic blood pressure during ambulatory monitoring. Our findings suggest that, after repair using the subclavian flap in comparison to end-to-end anastomosis, patients show a higher incidence of late hypertension, both during exercise and ambulatory monitoring. The data indicate different residual aortic stiffnesses, these being lower after end-to-end anastomosis, which may be due to the greater resection of the abnormal aortic tissue when coarctation is repaired using the latter technique.
