NCT02593448

Brief Summary

The purpose of the present study is to assess, by near infrared spectroscopy with INVOS oximeter during vascular occlusion test (VOT), the influence of cardiopulmonary bypass on tissue saturation in thenar muscle. The secondary aim is to compare the effects of propofol and sevoflurane anaesthesia on tissue saturation. It is a prospective, randomized, open-label study. Sixty cardiac surgery patients will receive either propofol or sevoflurane anaesthesia. Three-minute VOT will be performed at the following time points: 30 minutes after anaesthesia induction, directly after sternotomy, 20 and 40 minutes after aortic cross-clamping, 20 minutes after aortic cross-clamp removal, and 45 minutes after weaning of cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). Group and time effects on tissue saturation will be analysed with ANOVA and post hoc Tukey's test.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Changes in thenar muscle saturation

    Thenar muscle tissue saturation was continuously monitored using an INVOS NIRS monitor (INVOS-YM 5100C Cerebral Somatic Oximeter, Covidien, Mansfield, USA). Thenar muscle saturation was measured during VOT 30 minutes after anaesthesia induction, which will be regarded baseline value. At five another timepoints VOT was performed and changes in thenar muscle saturation were measured: 1. directly after the sternotomy, 2. during CPB - 20 minutes after aortic cross-clamping, 3. 40 minutes after aortic cross-clamping, 4. 20 minutes after the release of the aortic cross-clamp, 5. 45 minutes after weaning of CPB.

    During VOT performed at 6 timepoints

Study Arms (2)

Propofol

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

General anaesthesia with Propofol use. Maintenance of anaesthesia in group P will be accomplished using continuous intravenous infusion of propofol 2-4 mg kg/h. Propofol infusion rate will be adjusted according to patient's haemodynamic parameters and the level of anaesthesia, as assessed with Bispectral Index (BIS), with a target range of 40-60. Intervention: NIRS during VOT on several timepoints.

Procedure: NIRS during VOTProcedure: General anaesthesia with propofol use

Sevoflurane

EXPERIMENTAL

General anaesthesia with sevoflurane use. Sevoflurane concentration in exhaled gas will be adjusted according to patient's haemodynamic parameters and the level of anaesthesia, as assessed with BIS, with a target range of 40-60. Intervention: NIRS during VOT on several timepoints.

Interventions

Near infrared spectroscopy with INVOS oximeter during vascular occlusion test (VOT) on following timepoints: 1. 30 minutes after anaesthesia induction, 2. directly after the sternotomy, 3. during CPB - 20 minutes after aortic cross-clamping , 4. 40 minutes after aortic cross-clamping, 5. 20 minutes after the release of the aortic cross-clamp, 6. 45 minutes after weaning of CPB.

PropofolSevoflurane

Premedication: lorazepam 50 μg kg-1, omeprazole 40 mg, and metoprolol 12.5 mg one hour before transport to the operating theatre. Anaesthesia induction: 0.2 mg fentanyl, 0.3 mg/kg, etomidate, and vecuronium bromide 0.1 mg/kg for muscle relaxation, followed by a continuous infusion at the rate of 0.05 mg/kg/h until the sternum closure. Intraoperative analgesia: fentanyl in fractions, up to the total dose of 20-30 μg/kg. Maintenance of anaesthesia in 'Propofol' group will be accomplished using continuous intravenous infusion of propofol 2-4 mg kg/h. Propofol infusion rate will be adjusted according to patient's haemodynamic parameters and the level of anaesthesia, as assessed with Bispectral Index (BIS), with a target range of 40-60.
