NCT03961958

Brief Summary

Induction of anesthesia and the knee-chest position are associated with hemodynamic changes that may impact patient outcomes. Changes from baseline in cardiac output and other hemodynamic variables following induction of anesthesia and knee-chest positioning were compared. Propofol plasma concentrations were also measured after induction of anesthesia and after the knee-chest position. The aim of this study was to assess whether planned reductions in target-controlled infusion propofol concentrations attenuate the hemodynamic changes associated with anesthesia induction and knee-chest position. The secondary aim was to quantify the variation in propofol measured plasma concentrations (Cm), both after induction and after KC positioning, and correlate them with predicted concentrations (Cp) by the Schnider Pk model.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Hemodynamic changes

    Changes from baseline in cardiac output and comparison of the changes between both groups.

    Baseline (moment 0), 10 minutes after induction of anesthesia (moment 1), 10 minutes after knee-chest positioning (moment 2)

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Pharmacokinetic changes

    Baseline (moment 0), 10 minutes after induction of anesthesia (moment 1), 10 minutes after knee-chest positioning (moment 2)

Study Arms (2)

No protocolled propofol reduction

NO INTERVENTION

In phase 1, target-controlled infusion propofol anesthesia was adjusted to maintain BIS 40 to 60.

Two protocolled propofol reductions

EXPERIMENTAL

In phase 2, there were 2 planned reductions in propofol target concentration: (1) immediately after loss of consciousness-reduction calculated using a predefined formula, and (2) before positioning-reduction equal to the average percentage decrease in CO after knee-chest position in phase

Drug: Propofol reduction

Interventions

Reduction of propofol target concentration

Two protocolled propofol reductions
