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 COMPARATORPatients 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
Patients who were assigned to have target controlled infusions ( TCI) induction with propofol
ACTIVE COMPARATORPatients 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
Interventions
In manual anesthesia induction, anesthetic agents are administered at a fixed dose and rate adjusted according to the patient's weight
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.
The pulse contour device MostCare (Vytech, Vygon, Padova, Italy) provides functional hemodynamic monitoring using the pressure recording analytical method.
