NCT06535230

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to compare the risk of hypotension following induction of anesthesia in high-risk patients (American Society of Anesthesiologists risk scores III and IV) using target-controlled infusion (TCI) of propofol versus standard manual induction of anesthesia. Our previously published study compared TCI and manual induction of anesthesia in a general patient population and found that hypotension developed less with TCI induction. This study is a continuation of the other study and will be conducted in high-risk patients.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (3)

  • Systolic arterial pressure (SAP), measured before and after anesthesia induction was assessed to determine of post-induction hypotension in patients undergoing general anesthesia induction with TCI (target controlled infusion) or manual

    Systolic arterial pressure (SAP- mm/Hg) was monitored using the uncalibrated pulse contour device MostCare (Vytech, Vygon, Padova, Italy). SAP is a parameter used to assess the pressure of the arterial system during cardiac systole

    The duration of the study was defined from one minute before induction to 10 minutes after induction

  • Diastolic arterial pressure (DAP), measured before and after anesthesia induction was assessed to determine of post-induction hypotension in patients undergoing general anesthesia induction with TCI (target controlled infusion) or manual

    Diastolic arterial pressure (DAP, mm/Hg) was monitored using the uncalibrated pulse contour device MostCare (Vytech, Vygon, Padova, Italy). DAP is a parameter used to assess the pressure of the arterial system during cardiac diastole

    The duration of the study was defined from one minute before induction to 10 minutes after induction

  • Mean arterial pressure (MAP), measured before and after anesthesia induction was assessed to determine of post-induction hypotension in patients undergoing general anesthesia induction with TCI (target controlled infusion) or manual

    Mean arterial pressure (MAP, mm/Hg) was monitored using the uncalibrated pulse contour device MostCare (Vytech, Vygon, Padova, Italy). MAP is a parameter used to assess organ perfusion

    The duration of the study was defined from one minute before induction to 10 minutes after induction

Secondary Outcomes (7)

  • Arterial elastance (Ea) measured before anesthesia induction was investigated whether is a predictive parameter for post-induction hypotension in patients undergoing general anesthesia with TCI or manual

    The duration of the study was defined from one minute before induction to 10 minutes after induction

  • Stroke volume variation (SVV), measured before anesthesia induction were assessed for prediction of post-induction hypotension in patients undergoing general anesthesia induction with TCI and manual

    The duration of the study was defined from one minute before induction to 10 minutes after induction

  • Pulse pressure variation (PPV), measured before anesthesia induction were assessed for prediction of post-induction hypotension in patients undergoing general anesthesia induction with TCI or manual

    The duration of the study was defined from one minute before induction to 10 minutes after induction

  • Cardiac power output (CPO), measured before anesthesia induction were assessed for prediction of post-induction hypotension in patients undergoing general anesthesia induction with TCI or manual

    The duration of the study was defined from one minute before induction to 10 minutes after induction

  • Cardiac index (CI), measured before anesthesia induction were assessed for prediction of post-induction hypotension in patients undergoing general anesthesia induction with TCI or manual

    The duration of the study was defined from one minute before induction to 10 minutes after induction

  • +2 more secondary outcomes

Study Arms (2)

Patients who were assigned to have manual anesthesia induction group with propofol

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Patients who were assigned to have a manual anesthesia induction group, propofol was administered 1-2 mg/kg in 1-2 minutes to achieve a level of hypnosis measured by bispectral index ( BIS ) of 35-60

Drug: Manual anesthesia inductionDevice: Hemodynamic monitoring with pressure recording analytical method (PRAM)

Patients who were assigned to have target controlled infusions ( TCI) induction with propofol

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Patients who were assigned to have TCI induction had the target effect site concentration (Ce) of propofol (Ce) set at 1 μg ml-1 using the Schneider model and subsequently modified to achieve and maintain a level of hypnosis measured by BIS of 35-55

Drug: Anesthesia induction with Target controlled infusions (TCI)Device: Hemodynamic monitoring with pressure recording analytical method (PRAM)

Interventions

In manual anesthesia induction, anesthetic agents are administered at a fixed dose and rate adjusted according to the patient's weight

Also known as: Manuel induction
Patients who were assigned to have manual anesthesia induction group with propofol

Target controlled infusion (TCI) system aims to reach the theoretically targeted blood or brain concentration of anesthetic agents based on the patient's age, weight, and height, with computer-assisted algorithms.

Also known as: TCI induction
Patients who were assigned to have target controlled infusions ( TCI) induction with propofol

The pulse contour device MostCare (Vytech, Vygon, Padova, Italy) provides functional hemodynamic monitoring using the pressure recording analytical method.
