Abstract
Background Hypotension is a risk factor for postoperative complications, but evidence from randomized trials does not support that a higher blood pressure target always leads to optimized outcomes. The heterogeneity of underlying hemodynamics during hypotension may contribute to these contradictory results. Exploring the subtypes of hypotension can enable optimal management of intraoperative hypotension. Methods This is a prospective, observational pilot study. Patients who were ≥ 45 years old and scheduled to undergo moderate-to-high-risk noncardiac surgery were enrolled in this study. The primary objective of this pilot study was to investigate the frequency and distribution of perioperative hypotension and its subtypes (hypotension with or without cardiac output reduction). The exposure of hypotension and its subtypes in patients with and without myocardial or acute kidney injury were also explored. Results Sixty patients were included in the analysis. 83% (50/60) of the patients experienced perioperative hypotension. The median duration of hypotension for each patient was 8.0 [interquartile range, 3.1-23.3] minutes. Reduced cardiac output was present during 77% of the hypotension duration. Patients suffering from postoperative myocardial or acute kidney injury displayed longer duration and more extensive exposure in all hypotension subtypes. However, the percentage of different hypotension subtypes did not differ in patients with or without postoperative myocardial or acute kidney injury. Conclusion Perioperative hypotension was frequently accompanied by cardiac output reduction in moderate-to-high-risk noncardiac surgical patients. However, due to the pilot nature of this study, the relationship between hypotension subtypes and postoperative myocardial or acute kidney injury still needs further exploration.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Intraoperative fluid management is a crucial aspect of cancer surgery, including colorectal surgery and pancreatoduodenectomy. The study tests if intraoperative multimodal monitoring reduces postoperative morbidity and duration of hospitalisation in patients undergoing major abdominal surgery treated by the same anaesthetic protocols with epidural analgesia. PATIENTS AND METHODS A prospective study was conducted in 2 parallel groups. High-risk surgical patients undergoing major abdominal surgery were randomly selected in the control group (CG), where standard monitoring was applied (44 patients), and the protocol group (PG), where cerebral oxygenation and extended hemodynamic monitoring were used with the protocol for intraoperative interventions (44 patients). RESULTS There were no differences in the median length of hospital stay, CG 9 days (interquartile range [IQR] 8 days), PG 9 (5.5), p = 0.851. There was no difference in postoperative renal of cardiac impairment. Procalcitonin was significantly higher (highest postoperative value in the first 3 days) in CG, 0.75 mcg/L (IQR 3.19 mcg/L), than in PG, 0.3 mcg/L (0.88 mcg/L), p = 0.001. PG patients received a larger volume of intraoperative fluid; median intraoperative fluid balance +1300 ml (IQR 1063 ml) than CG; +375 ml (IQR 438 ml), p < 0.001. CONCLUSIONS There were significant differences in intraoperative fluid management and vasopressor use. The median postoperative value of procalcitonin was significantly higher in CG, suggesting differences in immune response to tissue trauma in different intraoperative fluid status, but there was no difference in postoperative morbidity or hospital stay.

BRAZILIAN JOURNAL OF ANESTHESIOLOGY (ELSEVIER) 2024; 74:744230. [PMID: 34324933 PMCID: PMC10877358 DOI: 10.1016/j.bjane.2021.07.009] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/16/2020] [Revised: 06/25/2021] [Accepted: 07/10/2021] [Indexed: 12/26/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Anesthesia induction can produce severe propofol dose-dependent hypotension. Fentanyl coadministration reduces the catecholaminergic response to orotracheal intubation allowing propofol dose reduction. The aim of this study is to determine whether the hemodynamic response is improved by increasing the time between fentanyl and propofol administration and reducing the dose of the latter without increasing the time to achieve optimal hypnosis. METHODS After approval by the Research Ethics Committee, patients undergoing non-cardiac surgery with endotracheal intubation were randomized by a computer-generated table into six time-dose groups (1 or 2...minutes/1, 1.5, or 2...mg.kg-1 of propofol). Patients with high bronchoaspiration risk, a difficult airway, hemodynamic instability, or anesthetic allergies were excluded. After giving intravenous fentanyl (2.....g.kg-1), each group received different doses of propofol after 1 or 2...minutes. Noninvasive blood pressure (BP) and heart rate (HR) were measured at pre-induction, pre-intubation, and post-intubation. Time to hypnosis (bispectral index < 60) was also recorded. RESULTS Of the 192 recruited patients, 186 completed the study (1...min group n...=...94; 2...min group n...=...92). It was observed that HR and BP decreased after propofol administration and increased after intubation in all groups (p...<...0.0001). In patients over 55 years, the 2 min ... 2 mg.kg-1 group showed the greatest systolic BP reduction (36........12%) at pre-intubation, while the 1...min.........1.5...mg.kg-1 group showed the least hemodynamic alteration between pre- and post-intubation (-4........13%). No significant differences were found in younger patients or in the time to reach hypnosis between the six groups. While no cases of severe bradycardia were recorded, 5,4% of the sample required vasopressors. CONCLUSION Increasing the time between the administration of fentanyl and propofol by up to two minutes results in greater hypotension in patients over 55 years.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the association of etomidate with postintubation hypotension, inflammation, and mortality in critically ill patients with COVID-19. DESIGN International, multicenter, retrospective study. PARTICIPANTS Critically ill patients hospitalized specifically for COVID-19 from three major academic institutions in the US and Europe. MAIN OUTCOME AND MEASURES Patients were allocated into the etomidate (ET) group or another induction agent (OA) group. The primary outcome was postintubation hypotension. Secondary outcomes included postintubation inflammatory status, in-hospital mortality, and mortality at 30 days. RESULTS 171 patients with a median age of 68 (IQR 58-73) years were included (ET, n = 98; OA, n = 73). Etomidate was associated with lower postintubation mean arterial pressure [74.33 (64-85) mm Hg versus 81.84 (69.75-94.25) mm Hg, p = 0.005] compared to other agents. No statistically significant differences were generally observed in inflammatory markers between the two groups at 7- and 14-days after admission to the intensive care unit. In-hospital mortality [77 (79%) versus 41 (56%), p = 0.003] and mortality at 30-days [78 (80%) versus 43 (59%), p = 0.006] were higher in the ET group. In multivariate logistic regression analysis, only etomidate (p = 0.009) and postintubation mean arterial pressure (p < 0.001) had a statistically significant effect on mortality, in contrast to stress-dose steroids (p = 0.301), after adjusting for creatinine (p = 0.695), blood urea nitrogen (p = 0.153), age (p = 0.055), oxygen saturation of hemoglobin (SpO2) (p = 0.941), and fraction of inspired oxygen (FiO2) (p = 0.712). CONCLUSIONS Administration of a single-bolus dose of etomidate in critically ill patients with COVID-19 is associated with lower postintubation mean arterial pressure and higher in-hospital and 30-day mortality compared to other induction agents.

Abstract
We hypothesized that the combined use of etomidate and propofol for endoscopic sedation in elderly hypertensive patients could reduce adverse reactions while providing ideal sedation. To validate our hypothesis, we conducted a prospective, randomized, controlled, double-blinded study. A total of 360 elderly hypertensive patients scheduled for gastroscopy at our hospital were enrolled in the study, of whom 328 completed the trial. The patients were randomly assigned to one of three groups: the propofol group (group P), the etomidate group (group E), or the propofol-etomidate combination group (mixed at a ratio of 1:1, group PE). We collected and analyzed the cardiopulmonary effects and side effects in each group. Regardless of the sedation drug used, the systolic blood pressure, mean blood pressure, and heart rate of involved patients were significantly affected. Oxygen desaturation and injection pain were more common in group P compared to groups E (33.6% vs. 14.8%, 31.8% vs. 2.7%, both P < 0.01) and group PE (33.6% vs. 13.6%, 31.8% vs. 6.4%, both P < 0.01). The incidence of myoclonus in the PE group was lower than that in the E group (10.9% vs. 61.2%, P < 0.01). Our results indeed demonstrated that the combined use of etomidate and propofol appeared to maintain cardiopulmonary stability with minimal side effects in older hypertensive patients scheduled for gastroscopy, which further implied that this sedation strategy could be a safe and pain-free option for managing patients undergoing gastroscopy, particularly those at a higher risk of adverse cardiovascular events.

Abstract
Background and Aims Airway management in cervical spine injury patients requires manual in-line stabilization (MILS) of the neck to avoid exacerbation of cord injury, which impedes visualization of glottis during laryngoscopy. Specially designed blades such as McCoy and C-MAC D-blades can improve laryngoscopic view in such patients. This study was performed to compare the efficacy of C-MAC D-blades and the McCoy laryngoscope for oro-tracheal intubation using MILS in patients undergoing cervical spine surgery. Material and Methods This randomized, prospective study was performed in 60 adult patients of American Society of Anesthesiologists grade I-III, either sex, 18 to 60 years of age undergoing elective cervical spine surgery. Patients were randomly categorized into two groups, group D and group M. Intubation was performed using a C-MAC D-blade videolaryngoscope in group D and a McCoy laryngoscope in group M using MILS. The intubation difficulty scale (IDS) score, laryngoscopy and intubation times, percentage of glottic opening (POGO) score, Cormack Lehane (CL) grading with and without external laryngeal pressure (ELP), need for bougie or change of blade or operator, and change in hemodynamics following intubation were recorded. Results Group D showed lower mean IDS scores than group M (P value < 0.0001). There were statistically significant differences found in duration of laryngoscopy (group D < group M), CL grading without ELP (group D: CL-1,2a >CL-2b, 3; group M: CL-1,2a group M), need for ELP and lifting force (group D < group M), and hemodynamic responses after intubation (group D < group M). Conclusion A C-MAC D-blade videolaryngoscope provides better and rapid visualization of glottis with less intubation difficulties than a McCoy laryngoscope during intubation using MILS in patients with cervical spine injury.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Remifentanil can inhibit the hemodynamic responses caused by endotracheal intubation, but the effect-site concentration of it required to control intubation responses when combined with etomidate has not been demonstrated. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect-site concentration of remifentanil blunting tracheal intubation responses in 50% and 95% of patients (EC50 and EC95) during etomidate anesthesia. METHODS American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status (ASA) I-II elective surgical patients receiving target-controlled infusion (TCI) of remifentanil, followed by etomidate and rocuronium for anesthesia were enrolled. The Belive Drive A2 monitor was used to calculate the MGRSSI (Maygreen Sedative state index) of hypnotic effect and the MGRNOX (Maygreen Nociception index) of nociception. The MGRSSI and the MGRNOX value were generated every 1 s. Mean arterial pressure (MAP) and heart rate (HR) were measured every minute, noninvasively. Using the modified Dixon's up-and-down method, the concentration of remifentanil was determined based on the intubation response of the previous patient. The cardiovascular response during endotracheal intubation was defined as positive when MAP or HR is 20% higher than the pre-intubation value. A probit analysis was used for calculating EC50, EC95 and 95% confidence interval (CI). RESULTS The EC50 and EC95 of remifentanil blunting tracheal intubation responses were found to be 7.731 ng/ml (95%CI: 7.212-8.278 ng/ml) and 8.701 ng/ml (95%CI: 8.199-11.834 ng/ml). There were statistically significant increases in HR, MGRSSI and MGRNOX value to tracheal intubation in the positive responses group compared to the negative group. The most common adverse event was postoperative nausea and vomiting, which occurred in 3 patients. CONCLUSION Remifentanil effect-site concentration of 7.731 ng/ml is effective in blunting sympathetic responses to tracheal intubation in 50% of patients when combined with etomidate anesthesia. TRIAL REGISTRATION The trial was registered at the Chinese Clinical Trials Registry ( www.chictr.org.cn , registration number: ChiCTR2100054565, date of registration: 20/12/2021).

Abstract
BACKGROUND Propofol is increasingly being used for sedation in gastrointestinal endoscopy; however, owing to its side effects, an alternative drug is needed. We aimed to compare the safety, satisfaction, and efficacy outcomes of etomidate versus propofol in patients undergoing gastrointestinal endoscopy, including advanced endoscopic procedures. METHODS We systematically searched Embase, PubMed, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, CINAHL (via EBSCO), China National Knowledge Infrastructure, and Web of Science (1946-April 2020) databases for randomized controlled trials of gastrointestinal endoscopy (upper gastrointestinal endoscopy, colonoscopy, and advanced endoscopy) using etomidate or propofol as sedatives. We pooled odds ratios (ORs) for the safety profile and patient and anesthesiologist satisfaction using mixed-effects conditional logistic models and standardized mean differences for efficiency outcomes using random-effects models. RESULTS Twenty-four studies involving 3875 patients were included. Compared with propofol, etomidate resulted in significantly reduced apnea (OR: 0.22; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.13-0.37; P < .001), hypoxemia (OR: 0.43; 95% CI: 0.35-0.54; P < .001), hypotension (OR: 0.20; 95% CI: 0.11-0.36; P < .001), and bradycardia (OR: 0.52; 95% CI: 0.30-0.91; P = .02) but led to increased myoclonus (OR: 8.54; 95% CI: 5.20-14.01; P < .001) and lowered anesthesiologist satisfaction (OR: 0.60; 95% CI: 0.39-0.91; P = .02). CONCLUSION Etomidate may be a good alternative to propofol for gastrointestinal endoscopy, especially advanced endoscopy. Etomidate appears to be safe as an inducer for hemodynamically unstable patients or older adult patients undergoing gastrointestinal endoscopy.

The difference in mean arterial pressure induced by remimazolam compared to etomidate in the presence of fentanyl at tracheal intubation: A randomized controlled trial. Front Pharmacol 2023; 14:1143784. [PMID: 37021047 PMCID: PMC10067562 DOI: 10.3389/fphar.2023.1143784] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/13/2023] [Accepted: 03/09/2023] [Indexed: 04/07/2023] Open
Abstract
Background: Combined use of hypnotic and opioids during anesthesia inductions decreases blood pressure. Post-induction hypotension (PIHO) is the most common side effect of anesthesia induction. We aimed to compare the difference in mean arterial pressure (MAP) induced by remimazolam with that induced by etomidate in the presence of fentanyl at tracheal intubation. Methods: We assessed 138 adult patients with American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status I-II who underwent elective urological surgery. Patients were randomly allocated to receive either remimazolam or etomidate as alterative hypnotic in the presence of fentanyl during anesthesia induction. Comparable BIS values were achieved in both groups. The primary outcome was the difference in the MAP at tracheal intubation. The secondary outcomes included the characteristics of anesthesia, surgery, and adverse effects. Results: The MAP was higher in the etomidate group than in the remimazolam group at tracheal intubation (108 [22] mmHg vs. 83 [16] mmHg; mean difference, -26; 95% confidence interval [CI], -33 to -19; p < 0.0001). Heart rate was significantly higher in the etomidate group than in the remimazolam group at tracheal intubation. The patients' condition warranted the administration of ephedrine more frequently in the remimazolam group (22%) than in the etomidate group (5%) (p = 0.0042) during anesthesia induction. The remimazolam group had a lower incidence of hypertension (0% vs. 9%, p = 0.0133), myoclonus (0% vs. 47%, p < 0.001), and tachycardia (16% vs. 35%, p = 0.0148), and a higher incidence of PIHO (42% vs. 5%, p = 0.001) than the etomidate group during anesthesia induction. Conclusion: Remimazolam was associated with lower MAP and lower heart rate compared to etomidate in the presence of fentanyl at tracheal intubation. Patients in the remimazolam group had a higher incidence of PIHO, and their condition warranted the administration of ephedrine more frequently than in the etomidate group during anesthesia induction.

BMC Anesthesiol 2022; 22:234. [PMID: 35869445 PMCID: PMC9306094 DOI: 10.1186/s12871-022-01773-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/25/2022] [Accepted: 07/12/2022] [Indexed: 11/29/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Even a small change in the pressure gradient between the venous system and the right atrium can have significant hemodynamic effects. Mean systemic filling pressure (MSFP) is the driving force of the venous system. As a result, MSFP has a significant effect on cardiac output. We aimed to test the hypothesis that the hemodynamic instability during induction of general anesthesia by intravenous propofol administration is caused by changes in MSFP. Methods We prospectively collected data from 15 patients undergoing major surgery requiring invasive hemodynamic monitoring. Hemodynamic parameters, including MSFP, were measured before and after propofol administration and following intubation, using venous return curves at a no-flow state induced by a pneumatic tourniquet. Results A significant decrease in MSFP was observed in all study patients after propofol administration (median (IQR) pressure 17 (9) mmHg compared with 25 (7) before propofol administration, p = 0.001). The pressure gradient for venous return (MSFP – central venous pressure; CVP) also decreased following propofol administration from 19 (8) to 12 (6) mmHg, p = 0.001. Central venous pressure did not change. Conclusions These results support the hypothesis that induction of anesthesia with propofol causes a marked reduction in MSFP. A possible mechanism of propofol-induced hypotension is reduction in preload due to a decrease in the venous vasomotor tone.

Effect of different doses of esketamine compared with fentanyl combined with propofol on hypotension in patients undergoing painless abortion surgery: a prospective, randomized, double-blind controlled clinical trial. BMC Anesthesiol 2022; 22:305. [PMID: 36171562 PMCID: PMC9516803 DOI: 10.1186/s12871-022-01848-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/29/2022] [Accepted: 09/21/2022] [Indexed: 11/24/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Opioids analgesics commonly used in abortion procedures are associated with respiratory and circulatory depression. Esketamine is a N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (NMDA) antagonist and a common analgesic. The drug has several advantages including rapid onset and offset and it causes minimal cardiorespiratory depression. However, studies have not explored the effects of esketamine in patients undergoing painless abortion surgery. Therefore, the present study sought to evaluate the effect of different doses of esketamine compared with the effect of fentanyl on incidence of perioperative hypotension in patients undergoing painless abortion surgery and to explore the optimal esketamine dose for this population. Methods A total of 178 female patients undergoing painless abortion surgery were enrolled to the current study. The patients were aged 18–45 years, had a body mass index (BMI) of 18–28 kg m− 2 and a class I or II physical status as determined using the American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) system. Patients were randomly assigned to four groups as follows: group F (n = 45) in which patients underwent intravenous (IV) administration of 1 μg kg− 1 fentanyl followed by IV administration of 2 mg kg− 1 propofol, and group EL, group EM and group EH (n = 45, 44, 44) with patients receiving IV administration of 0.2 mg kg− 1, 0.25 mg kg− 1, 0.3 mg kg− 1 esketamine, respectively, followed by IV administration of 2 mg kg− 1 propofol. The primary outcome of the study was the incidence of hypotension whereas secondary outcomes included incidence of adverse events, perioperative changes of vital signs, anesthesia induction time, recovery time and dischargeable time, propofol addition, as well as patient, surgeon and anesthesiologist satisfaction levels. Results The findings showed that the incidence of hypotension was significantly lower in subjects in group EL, group EM and group EH (0, 0, 0%) relative to the incidence in patients in group F (20%) (χ2 = 19.648; P = 0.000). In this study, the incidence of hypoxia of subjects in group EL, group EM and group EH (0, 2.3, 2.3%) was significantly lower compared with that of patients in group F (11.1%) (χ2 = 8.622; P = 0.035). The findings indicated that the incidence of somatic motor reactions was significantly lower in participants in group EM and group EH (9.1, 4.5%) relative to that of patients in group F and group EL (26.7, 15.6%) (χ2 = 10.254; P = 0.016). The results showed that the incidence of nausea and vomiting and potential psychiatric symptoms were significantly higher in patients in group EH (15.9, 11.4%) compared with that of participants in group F (2.2, 0%), group EL (4.4, 0%) and group EM (2.3, 2.3%) (χ2 = 7.493; P = 0.038 and χ2 = 8.248; P = 0.003). In this study, the mean arterial pressure (MAP) and heart rate (HR) of subjects in group EL, group EM and group EH were more stable compared with that of patients in group F. Frequency of the additional propofol dose was markedly less in group EM and EH (26.7%, 17,8%) compared with that in group F and EL (9.1, 4.5%) (χ2 = 10.254; P = 0.016). The findings indicated that the dischargeable time was significantly shorter for patients in group EM compared with that of subjects in group F, group EL and group EH. Conclusions The findings of the present study showed that single-dose esketamine (0.25 mg kg− 1) effectively decreased incidence of hypotension and total adverse events and reduced the frequency of additional propofol dose required for patients undergoing painless abortion with preservation of physician-patient satisfaction.

Abstract
Purpose
Hypotension during the early intraoperative phase is common and can lead to adverse perioperative outcomes. Fluid preloading is one of the methods to limit its occurrence. Patients with chronic compressive cervical myelopathy may have autonomic dysfunction, which can aggravate hemodynamic alterations during anesthesia. This study compared the occurrence of postinduction hypotension and changes in cardiac dynamic indices in patients with and without crystalloid preloading undergoing decompressive cervical spine surgery.
Methods
This randomized controlled trial was conducted over 15 months after obtaining patient consent, approval of the institute ethics committee, and trial registration. We compared preanesthetic fluid loading with Ringer's lactate (20 mL/kg over 30 minutes) with no preloading (2 mL/kg/h maintenance) in 60 consecutive patients undergoing cervical spine surgery. The ANSiscope was used to determine baseline cardiac autonomic function. Noninvasive cardiac output monitor was used to assess changes in heart rate, mean arterial pressure, cardiac index (CI), stroke volume variation (SVV), and total peripheral resistance index during study intervention, anesthetic induction, tracheal intubation, and change in position from supine to prone.
Results
The incidences of postinduction hypotension were 26.7% (8/30) and 86.7% (26/30) and the median doses of mephentermine used were 0 and 6 mg, respectively, in patients with and without fluid preloading (both
p
< 0.001). Preloading resulted in improvement in CI, reduction in SVV, and lesser vasopressor use.
Conclusion
Preloading reduced the occurrence of postinduction hypotension and vasopressor use, improved CI, and reduced SVV during the early intraoperative period.
Registration number of Clinical Trial
The trial was registered with Clinical Trial Registry of India (CTRI/2018/07/014970 on 19/07/2018).

Abstract
Etomidate is a hypnotic agent that is used for the induction of anesthesia. It produces its effect by acting as a positive allosteric modulator on the γ-aminobutyric acid type A receptor and thus enhancing the effect of the inhibitory neurotransmitter γ-aminobutyric acid. Etomidate stands out among other anesthetic agents by having a remarkably stable cardiorespiratory profile, producing no cardiovascular or respiratory depression. However, etomidate suppresses the adrenocortical axis by the inhibition of the enzyme 11β-hydroxylase. This makes the drug unsuitable for administration by a prolonged infusion. It also makes the drug unsuitable for administration to critically ill patients. Etomidate has relatively large volumes of distributions and is rapidly metabolized by hepatic esterases into an inactive carboxylic acid through hydrolyzation. Because of the decrease in popularity of etomidate, few modern extensive pharmacokinetic or pharmacodynamic studies exist. Over the last decade, several analogs of etomidate have been developed, with the aim of retaining its stable cardiorespiratory profile, whilst eliminating its suppressive effect on the adrenocortical axis. One of these molecules, ABP-700, was studied in extensive phase I clinical trials. These found that ABP-700 is characterized by small volumes of distribution and rapid clearance. ABP-700 is metabolized similarly to etomidate, by hydrolyzation into an inactive carboxylic acid. Furthermore, ABP-700 showed a rapid onset and offset of clinical effect. One side effect observed with both etomidate and ABP-700 is the occurrence of involuntary muscle movements. The origin of these movements is unclear and warrants further research.

Abstract
Propofol, ketamine, and etomidate are common anesthetic agents for induction of anesthesia in the ICU. The choice between these agents is complex and may not depend solely upon severity of illness. OBJECTIVES To evaluate the association between the administration of propofol, ketamine, and etomidate and ICU, hospital mortality, and length of stay. DESIGN SETTING AND PARTICIPANTS Retrospective single-center cohort study. ICUs in a tertiary medical center, between January 01, 2012, and December 31, 2017. Critically ill adult patients given a single IV anesthetic for intubation. MAIN OUTCOME AND MEASURES Primary outcomes were ICU and hospital mortality. Secondary outcomes were ICU- and hospital-free days through 28 days. An inverse probability of treatment weighed approach was used. The propensity score was estimated using a generalized logit model as a function of patient characteristics, admission source, ICU type, readmission status, length of ICU stays prior to intubation, and acute physiology score. Mortality outcomes were assessed with weighted logistic regression and -free days assessed by weighted linear regression with Bonferroni correction for pairwise comparisons. RESULTS Of 2,673 patients, 36% received propofol, 30% ketamine and 34% etomidate. Overall ICU and hospital mortality were 19% and 29%, respectively. Patients given ketamine had higher odds of ICU mortality (1.45; [95% CI, 1.07-1.94]; p = 0.015) and patients given etomidate had higher odds of ICU mortality (1.87; 1.40-2.49; p < 0.001), hospital mortality (1.43; 1.09-1.86; p = 0.009), and less ICU-free days (-2.10; -3.21 to -1.00; p < 0.001) than those given propofol. Patients given ketamine and etomidate had similar odds of hospital mortality (1.06; 0.80-1.42; p = 0.761) and similar hospital-free days (0.30; -0.81 to 1.40; p = 0.600). CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE Compared with ketamine and etomidate, propofol was associated with better outcome in critically ill patients undergoing anesthesia for intubation. Even after adjusting for severity of illness prior to intubation, residual confounders cannot be excluded.

Abstract
Background and objectives The aim of our study was to assess systemic and cerebral hemodynamic changes as well as cerebral CO2-reactivity during propofol anesthesia. Methods 27 patients undergoing general anesthesia were enrolled. Anesthesia was maintained using the Target-Controlled Infusion (TCI) method according to the Schnider model, effect site propofol concentration of 4 μg.mL-1. Ventilatory settings (respiratory rate and tidal volume) were adjusted to reach and maintain 40, 35, and 30 mmHg EtCO2 for 5 minutes, respectively. At the end of each period, transcranial Doppler and hemodynamic parameters using applanation tonometry were recorded. Results Systemic mean arterial pressure significantly decreased during anesthetic induction and remained unchanged during the entire study period. Central aortic and peripherial pulse pressure did not change significantly during anesthetic induction and maintenance, whereas augmentation index as marker of arterial stiffness significantly decreased during the anesthetic induction and remained stable at the time points when target CO2 levels were reached. Both cerebral autoregulation and cerebral CO2-reactivity was maintained during propofol anesthesia. Conclusions Propofol at clinically administered doses using the Total Intravenous Anesthesia (TIVA/TCI) technique decreases systemic blood pressure, but does not affect static cerebral autoregulation, flow-metabolism coupling and cerebrovascular CO2 reactivity. According to our measurements, propofol may exert its systemic hemodynamic effect through venodilation. Trial registration The study was registered at http://www.clinicaltrials.gov, identifier: NCT02203097, registration date: July 29, 2014.

Abstract
It remains unclear whether reduced myocardial contractility, venous dilation with decreased venous return, or arterial dilation with reduced systemic vascular resistance contribute most to hypotension after induction of general anesthesia. We sought to assess the relative contribution of various hemodynamic mechanisms to hypotension after induction of general anesthesia with sufentanil, propofol, and rocuronium. In this prospective observational study, we continuously recorded hemodynamic variables during anesthetic induction using a finger-cuff method in 92 non-cardiac surgery patients. After sufentanil administration, there was no clinically important change in arterial pressure, but heart rate increased from baseline by 11 (99.89% confidence interval: 7 to 16) bpm (P < 0.001). After administration of propofol, mean arterial pressure decreased by 23 (17 to 28) mmHg and systemic vascular resistance index decreased by 565 (419 to 712) dyn*s*cm−5*m2 (P values < 0.001). Mean arterial pressure was < 65 mmHg in 27 patients (29%). After propofol administration, heart rate returned to baseline, and stroke volume index and cardiac index remained stable. After tracheal intubation, there were no clinically important differences compared to baseline in heart rate, stroke volume index, and cardiac index, but arterial pressure and systemic vascular resistance index remained markedly decreased. Anesthetic induction with sufentanil, propofol, and rocuronium reduced arterial pressure and systemic vascular resistance index. Heart rate, stroke volume index, and cardiac index remained stable. Post-induction hypotension therefore appears to result from arterial dilation with reduced systemic vascular resistance rather than venous dilation or reduced myocardial contractility.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS The present prospective, randomised study was done to evaluate induction characteristics with bispectral (BIS) index guided infusion of propofol and etomidate. MATERIALS AND METHODS After institutional ethical committee approval, 70 patients, aged 18-60 years, American Society of Anaesthesiologists (ASA) I and II scheduled for elective surgery were included. Patients were randomly allocated into one of the two groups. In Group E, patients received etomidate infusion at a rate of 0.07 mg kg-1 min-1 and in Group P, received propofol infusion of 0.7 mg kg-1 min-1. Time from start of infusion to loss of palpebral reflex (TP), loss of verbal command (TV), BIS to reach 50 (TBIS50), mean induction dose and incremental dose of each drug required to keep BIS50., haemodynamic parameters and adverse effects like pain, myoclonus, apnoea and postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) were also noted. RESULTS TP,TV, and TBIS 50 was faster in E as compared to P group and was statistically significant for all parameters. Mean induction dose of drug required till BIS 50 was 2.68 ± 0.56 mg kg-1 and 0.242 ± 0.11 mg kg-1 in group P and E, respectively. There was a significant difference between the groups with group E requiring incremental dose in a significant proportion of patients (P = 0.004). There was a significant decrease in MAP in P group as compared to E. In group P, more number of patients experienced pain and had apnoea episode as compared to group E. (P < 0.001). Myoclonus was observed in group E only (P = 0.016). CONCLUSION BIS-guided titration of propofol and etomidate infusion for induction did not result in reduction of the dose, haemodynamic variations and other effects.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Transcranial Doppler (TCD) of the middle cerebral artery (MCA) enables the measurement of the mean blood velocity (MCAVm) and the estimation of the cerebral blood flow (CBF), provided that no significant changes occur in the MCA diameter (MCADiam). Previous studies described a decrease in the MCAVm associated with the induction of total intravenous anesthesia (TIVA) by propofol and remifentanil. This decrease in blood velocity might be interpreted as a decrease in the CBF only where the MCADiam is not modified across TCD examinations. METHODS In this observational study, we measured the MCADiam of 24 subjects (almost exclusively females) on digital subtraction angiography under awake and TIVA conditions. RESULTS Across the two phases, we observed a decrease in the mean arterial blood pressure (from 84 ± 9 to 71 ± 6 mmHg; p < 0.001) and heart rate (76 ± 10 vs. 65 ± 8 beats/min; p < 0.001), and a concomitant decrease in the MCAVm (61 vs. 42 cm/s; p < 0.001). In contrast, the MCADiam did not vary in association with TIVA (2.3 ± 0.2 vs. 2.3 ± 0.2 mm; p = 0.52). CONCLUSIONS Those results suggested that in this population, no significant changes in the MCADiam are associated with TIVA.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Administration of propofol, especially rapid administration, decreases patient cardiac output (CO) to various degrees. CO might influence the buildup of an effective drug level within the neuromuscular junction and affect the onset time of neuromuscular blockers. The present study aimed to investigate the effects of different infusion rates of propofol on patient CO and the onset time of rocuronium. METHODS A total of 90 patients were randomly assigned to receive propofol (2.5 mg/kg) at an infusion rate of 480 mg/min (group A), 240 mg/min (group B), or 120 mg/min (group C). After the administration of propofol, rocuronium (0.6 mg/kg) was administered to facilitate tracheal intubation. The Finometer monitor was used to obtain the cardiovascular profile during the induction of general anesthesia. Neuromuscular relaxation was monitored by acceleromyography using the ulnar nerve at the wrist surface and electrodes with repeated single twitches. Onset time was defined as the time from the beginning of rocuronium injection until 95% twitch depression. The onset time of rocuronium in the three groups was compared using analysis of variance with the post-hoc Tukey test. A p-value <0.05 was considered statistically significant. RESULTS After induction, a significant decrease in CO was observed in group A (21.6% ± 4.6%) when compared with the findings in group B (11.6% ± 4.5%) and group C (9.8% ± 4.6%). The onset time of rocuronium was significantly longer in group A (177.7 ± 17.6 seconds) than in group B (121.3 ± 18.3 seconds) and group C (118.3 ± 12.3 seconds). CONCLUSION Rapid administration of propofol significantly delays the onset time of rocuronium by altering CO as measured with the Finometer monitor.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To compare the effects of thoracic epidural administration of lidocaine on hemodynamic and arousal responses of double lumen tracheal intubation during induction of anesthesia. METHODS In the study, 40 patients with American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) physical statuses I-II, aged 19-66 years, scheduled for elective thoracic surgeries under general anesthesia requiring orotracheal intubation were allocated to either the double-lumen endobronchial intubation (T group) or double-lumen endobronchial intubation after epidural administration of lidocaine (E group). After an intravenous anesthetic induction, the orotracheal double-lumen intubation was performed using a Macintosh direct laryngoscopy (MDLS), respectively. Invasive blood pressure (BP), heart rate (HR) and bispectral index (BIS) were recorded before and after anesthetic induction, immediately after intubation and 5 minutes after intubation with 1-minute interval and the intubation time also noted. The rate pressure product (RPP) was calculated. RESULTS After anesthetic induction, BP and RPP in the two groups decreased significantly compared with their preinduction values. In comparison with their postinduction values, the orotracheal intubation in the two groups caused significant increases in BPs, HRs and RPP. In comparison with their preinduction values, BPs decreased significantly in E group, systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP) and mean arterial pressure (MAP) increased significantly and lasted for 1 min in T group. The HRs of both groups after intubation were significantly higher than their baseline values , and increased in HR and lasted for 1 min and 4 min in E group and T group, respectively. SBP, DBP, MAP, HR and RPP after intubation in T group were significantly higher than those of E group during the observation period. The values of BIS were similar between both the groups. In T group, the incidences of SBP percent increased>30% of the baseline value and RPP more than 22 000 were significantly higher than in E group. None of the patients in group E had SBP more than 130% of the baseline value and RPP more than 22 000. CONCLUSION During double-lumen endobronchial intubation, epidural administration of lidocaine can provide less hemodynamic response and similar arousal response.

Abstract
Background: Etomidate used for the induction of general anesthesia can result in myoclonus. We tested the hypothesis that pretreatment with dexmedetomidine (Dex) reduces the incidence of etomidate-induced myoclonus during the induction of general anesthesia. Materials and methods: One hundred patients who were scheduled for selective operations under general anesthesia were included in this randomized, double-blind controlled trial. Patients were randomized to receive either Dex 0.5 µg/kg in 20 mL of normal saline or the same volume of normal saline as pretreatment agents 15 mins before the injection of etomidate 0.3 mg/kg. The primary endpoint was the incidence of etomidate-induced myoclonus. Secondary endpoints were the severity of etomidate-induced myoclonus and the incidence of adverse effects from the onset of action of Dex or normal saline to the injection of etomidate, such as dizziness, respiratory depression, bradycardia, hypotension and nausea/vomiting. Results: All of the 100 patients completed the trial. Dex resulted in a significant 38% reduction in the number of patients who experienced etomidate-induced myoclonus: 13 (26%) vs 32 (64%) (P=0.0001). Additionally, the severity of myoclonus was also reduced in the Dex group than that in the placebo group (P=0.02). Incidence of dizziness, respiratory depression, bradycardia, hypotension and nausea/vomiting was similar in both groups. Conclusions: Pretreatment with Dex 0.5 µg/kg 15 mins before the induction of general anesthesia not only resulted in a 38% reduction in the incidence of etomidate-induced myoclonus, but also reduced the severity of myoclonus, without inducing any adverse effects.

Abstract
Purpose To compare the effect of etomidate versus propofol infusion on hemodynamic profiles, spontaneous breathing, and corneal reflex during the induction of anesthesia. Methods Adult patients (n=80) were randomized to receive etomidate (Group E, n=40) or propofol (Group P, n=40) infusion during anesthesia induction. Throughout induction, mean blood pressure and heart rate were monitored. Time to loss of consciousness (LOC), bispectral index (BIS), existence of spontaneous breathing, and corneal reflex at LOC were recorded. Results Fewer changes in hemodynamic profile occurred in Group E compared with Group P during induction of anesthesia. The mean time to LOC was shorter with etomidate than propofol (129.5 s vs 189.5 s, P<0.0001). BIS was lower in Group E compared with Group P at LOC (46.3 vs 52.9, P=0.0141). More patients exhibited spontaneous breathing in Group E compared with Group P at LOC (80% vs 17.5%, P<0.0001). Similarly, more patients maintained corneal reflex in Group E compared with Group P (34 patients vs 4 patients, P<0.0001). The incidence of etomidate-induced myoclonus was 17.5%. Conclusion Compared with propofol infusion, etomidate infusion during anesthesia induction had fewer effects on the hemodynamic profile of patients. Among patients who received etomidate, the BIS value was lower at LOC, and more patients displayed spontaneous breathing and corneal reflex.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND STUDY AIM Although propofol is widely used for sedation for endoscopic procedures, concerns remain regarding cardiopulmonary adverse events. Etomidate has little effect on the cardiovascular and respiratory systems, but patient satisfaction analysis is lacking. We compared the efficacy and safety of balanced propofol and etomidate sedation during advanced endoscopic procedures. METHODS As a randomized noninferiority trial, balanced endoscopic sedation was achieved using midazolam and fentanyl, and patients were randomly assigned to receive propofol (BPS) or etomidate (BES) as add-on drug. The main outcomes were sedation efficacy measured on a 10-point visual analog scale (VAS) and safety. RESULTS In total, 186 patients (94 in the BPS group and 92 in the BES group) were evaluated. BES did not show noninferiority in terms of overall patient satisfaction, with a difference in VAS score of -0.35 (97.5 % confidence interval -1.03 to ∞, p = 0.03). Among endoscopists and nurses, BES showed noninferiority to BPS, with differences in VAS scores of 0.06 and 0.08, respectively. Incidence of cardiopulmonary adverse events was lower in the BES group (27.7 versus 14.1 %, p = 0.023). Hypoxia occurred in 5.3 and 1.1 % of patients in the BPS and BES group (p = 0.211). Myoclonus occurred in 12.1 % (11/92) in the BES group. BES had lower risk of overall cardiopulmonary adverse events (odds ratio 0.401, p = 0.018). CONCLUSIONS BES was not noninferior to BPS in terms of patient satisfaction. However, BES showed better safety outcomes in terms of cardiopulmonary adverse events.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hemodilution was introduced initially as a blood conservation technique to reduce allogeneic blood transfusion in patients undergoing surgical procedures. Although the technique has been approved by the National Institute of Health consensus panel, limits of hemodilution under anesthetic conditions have not been established as they have in animal models. METHODS A novel multi-compartmental modeling approach has been proposed that includes the effect of anesthesia to quantify the effect of hemodilution on myocardial oxygen balance during myocardial ischemia. RESULTS The results showed that isovolemic hemodilution would cause detrimental effects around a hematocrit of 15%. Even though the fall in oxygen content caused by the decrease in hemoglobin concentration was compensated by an increase in coronary blood flow induced by hypoxic vasodilation and decreased viscosity, the endocardial tissue received less oxygen compared to the epicardial regions, and this sub-endocardial ischemia eventually led to cardiac failure. Statistical analysis also showed that the type of acellular replacement fluid failed to affect the heart rate, the stroke index or the cardiac index during hemodilution, and supplemental oxygen improved the endocardial oxygen supply. CONCLUSION The model validates the clinical conclusions that sub-endocardial ischemia causes cardiac failure under extreme hemodilution conditions and the model can also be easily integrated into other human simulators.

Abstract
Background The effects of the intravenous anesthetics propofol and etomidate on circulation are significantly different; however, their differing effects on miRNA expression in the cardiovascular system are not clearly understood. The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of these two anesthetics on miRNA expression profiles in the heart and blood vessels. Methods Rats were randomly divided into a propofol group and an etomidate group. Spontaneous breathing was maintained throughout the anesthesia process and the rats’ oxygen supply was ensured. Heart and thoracic aorta tissue was harvested 3 h after induction. The expression profiles of cardiovascular miRNAs were detected by microarray 4.0 analysis. Twelve representative miRNAs were selected for qRT-PCR validation, and their target genes were predicted using bioinformatics methods. Results Microarray analysis showed 16 differentially expressed miRNAs in heart tissue from the propofol group compared with the etomidate group (10 up-regulated and 6 down-regulated), while in the blood vessels there were 25 altered miRNAs (10 up-regulated, 15 down-regulated). After verifying 12 representative miRNAs via qRT-PCR, the results showed no significant difference in the expression of miRNAs in the heart tissue, but a significant difference in the expression of 5 miRNAs in vessel tissue between the two groups. Bioinformatics analysis predicts that the target genes of the 5 differentially expressed miRNAs are associated with chemical synapse signaling pathways. Conclusions Propofol and etomidate have different effects on the expression of cardiovascular miRNAs, and further research is needed to elucidate the functional consequences of these differentially expressed miRNAs.

Abstract
Background We compared cost-effectiveness of anesthesia maintained with sevoflurane or propofol with and without additional monitoring, in the clinical setting of ear-nose-throat surgery. Methods One hundred twenty adult patients were randomized to four groups. In groups SEVO and SEVO+ anesthesia was maintained with sevoflurane, in group SEVO+ with additional bispectral index (BIS) and train-of-four (TOF) monitoring. In groups PROP and PROP+ anesthesia was maintained with propofol, in group PROP+ with additional BIS and TOF monitoring. Results Total cost of anesthesia per hour was greater in group SEVO+ compared to SEVO [€ 19.95(8.53) vs. 12.15(5.32), p < 0.001], and in group PROP+ compared to PROP (€ 22.11(8.08) vs. 13.23(4.23), p < 0.001]. Time to extubation was shorter in group SEVO+ compared to SEVO [11.1(4.7) vs. 14.5(3.9) min, p = 0.002], and in PROP+ compared to PROP [12.6(5.4) vs. 15.2(4.7) min, p < 0.001]. Postoperatively, arterial blood pressure returned to its initial values sooner in groups SEVO+ and PROP+. Conclusions Our study demonstrated that the use of BIS and TOF monitoring decreased the total cost of anesthesia drugs and hastened postoperative recovery. However, in our circumstances, these were associated with higher disposables costs. Detailed cost analysis and further investigations are needed to identify patient populations who would benefit most from additional monitoring. Trial registration ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT02920749.

Abstract
Background It is unknown to what extent hypotension frequently observed following administration of propofol for induction of general anesthesia is caused by overdosing propofol. Unlike clinical signs, electroencephalon-based cerebral monitoring allows to detect and quantify an overdose of hypnotics. Therefore, we tested whether the use of an electroencephalon-based cerebral monitoring will cause less hypotension following induction with propofol. Methods Subjects were randomly assigned to a bispectral index (BIS)-guided (target range 40–60) or to a weight-related (2 mg.kg− 1) manual administration of propofol for induction of general anesthesia. The primary endpoint was the incidence of hypotension following the administration of propofol. Secondary endpoints included the degree of hypotension and correlations between BIS and drop in mean arterial pressure (MAP). Incidences were analyzed with Fisher’s Exact-test. Results Of the 240 patients enrolled into this study, 235 predominantly non-geriatric (median 48 years, 25th – 75th percentile 35–61 years) patients without severe concomitant disease (88% American Society of Anesthesiology physical status 1–2) undergoing ear, nose and throat surgery, ophthalmic surgery, and dermatologic surgery were analyzed. Patients who were manually administered propofol guided by BIS (n = 120) compared to those who were given propofol by weight (n = 115) did not differ concerning the incidence of hypotension (44% vs. 45%; p = 0.87). Study groups were also similar regarding the maximal drop in MAP compared to baseline (33% vs. 30%) and the proportion of hypotensive events related to all measurements (17% vs. 19%). Final propofol induction doses in BIS group and NON-BIS group were similar (1.93 mg/kg vs. 2 mg/kg). There was no linear correlation between BIS and the drop in MAP at all times (r < 0.2 for all) except for a weak one at 6 min (r = 0.221). Conclusion Results of our study suggest that a BIS-guided compared to a weight-adjusted manual administration of propofol for induction of general anesthesia in non-geriatric patients will not lower the incidence and degree of arterial hypotension.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Although a growing body of evidence demonstrates that propofol-induced deep sedation can be effective and performed safely, cardiopulmonary adverse events have been observed frequently. Etomidate is a new emerging drug that provides hemodynamic and respiratory stability, even in high-risk patient groups. The objective of this study was to compare safety and efficacy profiles of etomidate and propofol for endoscopic sedation. METHODS A total of 128 patients undergoing EUS were randomized to receive either etomidate or propofol blinded administered by a registered nurse. The primary outcome was the proportion of patients with any cardiopulmonary adverse events. RESULTS Overall cardiopulmonary adverse events were identified in 22 patients (34.38%) of the etomidate group and 33 patients (51.56%) of the propofol group, without significant difference (P = .074). However, the incidence of oxygen desaturation (4/64 [6.25%] vs 20/64 [31.25%]; P =.001) and respiratory depression (5/64 [7.81%] vs 21/64 [32.81%]; P =.001) was significantly lower in the etomidate group than in the propofol group. The frequency of myoclonus was significantly higher in the etomidate group (22/64 [34.37%]) compared with the propofol group (8/64 [12.50%]) (P =.012). Repeated measure analysis of variance revealed significant effects of sedation group and time on systolic blood pressure (etomidate group greater than propofol group). Physician satisfaction was greater in the etomidate group than in the propofol group. CONCLUSIONS Etomidate administration resulted in fewer respiratory depression events and had a better sedative efficacy than propofol; however, it was more frequently associated with myoclonus and increased blood pressure during endoscopic procedures.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Pathophysiologic changes in children with congenital heart disease may alter the effect of drugs by influencing the pharmacokinetics (PK). Considering the limited literature that describes the PK of etomidate in pediatric patients, especially in those with tetralogy of Fallot (TOF), our aim was to characterize the PK of etomidate and explore the effects of TOF. METHODS Twenty-nine pediatric patients (15 with TOF and 14 with normal cardiac anatomy) scheduled to undergo elective surgery under general anesthesia were recruited in the study. All children received etomidate 60 μg/kg/min intravenously until a bispectral index of ≤50 was reached for 5 seconds during anesthesia induction. Arterial blood samples were drawn and analyzed. Population analysis was performed by using NONMEM to define PK characteristics. The estimates were standardized to a 70-kg adult using a per-kilogram model. RESULTS Data consisting of 244 samples from 29 children with a mean age of 236 days (range, 86-360 days) were used, including a TOF group with a mean age of 250 days (range, 165-360 days) and a normal cardiac anatomy group with a mean age of 221 days (range, 86-360 days). A 3-compartment disposition model was best fitted to describe the PK of etomidate. The introduction of TOF as a covariate for systemic clearance (Cl1) improved the model and resulted in a significant reduction of objective function (Δobjective function = -7.33; P = .0068), which means that TOF was a significant covariate of Cl1, and the etomidate Cl1 in children with TOF (1.67 × (weight [WT]/70 kg) L/min) was lower than those with normal cardiac anatomy (2.28 × (WT/70 kg) L/min). Other PK parameter values were as follows: V1 = 8.05 × (WT/70 kg) L; V2 = 13.7 × (WT/70 kg) L; V3 = 41.3 × (WT/70 kg) L; Cl2 = 3.35 × (WT/70 kg) L/min; Cl3 = 0.563 × (WT/70 kg) L/min. CONCLUSIONS A decreased systemic clearance for etomidate in children with TOF resulted in a lower required infusion rate and variation with time to achieve the same plasma concentration and maintain an equivalent target concentration or have longer sedation and recovery times after bolus or continuous infusion than normal children.

Abstract
Background and Aims: Hypotension during propofol induction is a common problem. Perfusion index (PI), an indicator of systemic vascular resistance, is said to be predictive of hypotension following subarachnoid block. We hypothesised that PI can predict hypotension following propofol induction and a cut-off value beyond which hypotension is more common can be determined. Methods: Fifty adults belonging to the American Society of Anesthesiologists' physical status I/II undergoing elective surgery under general anaesthesia were enrolled for this prospective, observational study. PI, heart rate, blood pressure (BP) and oxygen saturation were recorded every minute from baseline to 10 min following induction of anaesthesia with a titrated dose of propofol, and after endotracheal intubation. Hypotension was defined as fall in systolic BP (SBP) by >30% of baseline or mean arterial pressure (MAP) to <60 mm Hg. Severe hypotension (MAP of <55 mm Hg) was treated. Results: Within first 5-min after induction, the incidence of hypotension with SBP and MAP criteria was 30% and 42%, respectively, and that of severe hypotension, 22%. Baseline PI <1.05 predicted incidence of hypotension at 5 min with sensitivity 93%, specificity 71%, positive predictive value (PPV) 68% and negative predictive value (NPV) 98%. The area under the ROC curve (AUC) was 0.816, 95% confidence interval (0.699–0.933), P < 0.001 Conclusion: Perfusion index could predict hypotension following propofol induction, especially before endotracheal intubation, and had a very high negative predictive value.

Abstract
Etomidate is an anaesthetic induction agent which may be favoured in critically ill patients because of its cardiovascular stability. However, etomidate causes adrenocortical suppression which may be particularly harmful in these patients. This article reviews current evidence and debates the use of etomidate in critical illness.

Abstract
Introduction: The aim of this study was to measure the haemodynamic responses to a etomidate-propofol combination used for anaesthesia induction and to compare the haemodynamic responses with the separate use of each drug.
Methods: The patients were randomly divided into three groups as group P (n = 30, propofol 2.5 mg kg-1), group E (n = 30, etomidate 0.3 mg kg-1) and group PE (n = 30, propofol 1.25 mg kg-1 + etomidate 0.15 mg kg-1). For each patient, the times of measurement of the heart rate (HR) and mean arterial pressure values were defined as baseline, after the induction, before the intubation, immediately after the intubation and 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 10 minutes after the intubation.
Results: In all 3 groups, a significant decrease in MAP values were seen at T2 and T3 compared to the baseline values, and this decrease was greater in group P compared to that in group E and PE (P < 0.001, P < 0.01). A significant increase was seen in all 3 groups in the mean arterial pressure (MAP) value at T4 after the intubation. When the groups were compared with each other, this increase was greater in group E than in the other two groups (with group P, P < 0.001; with group PE, P < 0.01).
Conclusion: Etomidate-propofol combination may be a valuable alternative when extremes of hypotensive and hypertensive responses due to propofol and etomidate are best to be avoided.

Abstract
Prior studies have examined the static effect of intravenous ketamine on the BIS Index for sedation but it remains unknown if the BIS Index is a reliable method to track sedation levels in the presence of ketamine. The major objective of the current investigation was to compare the BIS Vista Index ability to track varying depths of sedation as determined by OASS scores in a standardized anesthetic regimen with and without ketamine. The study was a randomized, double blinded clinical trial. Patients undergoing breast surgery under sedation with propofol were randomized to receive ketamine (1.5 μg kg min(-1)) or saline. Infusion data was used to estimate propofol plasma concentrations (Cp). The main outcome of interest was the correlation between the BIS Vista Index with the OASS score. Twenty subjects were recruited and fifteen completed the study. Four hundred fifty-five paired data points were included in the analysis. Model performance (Nagelkerke R(2)) of the multinomial logistic regression model was 0.57 with the c-statistic of 0.87 (95 % CI 0.82-0.91). Compared to awake the odds ratio for BIS values predicting moderate sedation in the saline/propofol group 1.19 (95 % CI 1.12-1.25) but only 1.06 (95 % CI 1.02-1.1) in the ketamine/propofol group (P = 0.001). There was no difference in the odds for BIS values to predict deep sedation between groups (P = 0.14). The BIS monitor can be used to monitor sedation level even when ketamine is used with propofol as part of the sedation regimen. However, ketamine reduces the value of the BIS in predicting moderate sedation levels.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Propofol may result in hypotension and respiratory depression, while etomidate is considered to be a safe induction agent for haemodynamically unstable patients because of its low risk of hypotension. We hypothesized that etomidate anesthesia during ERCP caused more stable haemodynamic responses compared with propofol. The primary endpoint was to compare the haemodynamic effects of etomidate vs. propofol in ERCP cases. The secondary endpoint was overall survival. METHODS A total of 80 patients undergoing ERCP were randomly assigned to an etomidate or propofol group. Patients in the etomidate group received etomidate induction and maintenance during ERCP, and patients in the propofol group received propofol induction and maintenance. Cardiovascular parameters and procedure-related time were measured and recorded during ERCP. RESULTS The average percent change to baseline in MBP was -8.4±7.8 and -14.4±9.4 with P = 0.002, and in HR was 1.8±16.6 and 2.4±16.3 with P = 0.874 in the etomidate group and the propofol group, respectively. MBP values in the etomidate group decreased significantly less than those in the propofol group (P<0.05). The ERCP duration and recovery time in both groups was similar. There was no significant difference in the survival rates between groups ( p = 0.942). CONCLUSIONS Etomidate anesthesia during ERCP caused more stable haemodynamic responses compared with propofol.

Abstract
Background We investigated the impact of the type of neurological disorder on the required propofol dose for anesthesia and the time to emerge from anesthesia during dental treatment in patients with autism (AU), cerebral palsy (CP), and intellectual disability (ID), some of whom also had epilepsy. Methods We studied 224 patients with a neurological disorder who underwent dental treatment under intravenous general anesthesia. Patients were categorized according to neurological disorder (AU, CP, and ID; and with or without an antiepileptic). The propofol dose required for anesthesia, time to emerge, and modeled propofol blood concentration at emergence were evaluated. Results In patients not given an antiepileptic, we found no significant differences in the propofol dose, modeled propofol blood concentration at emergence, or time to emerge among patients with AU, CP, and ID (P > 0.05). When using an antiepileptic, the dose of propofol (5.7 ± 1.51 mg/kg/h) was significantly lower than without an antiepileptic (6.8 ± 1.27 mg/kg/h) (P < 0.0001). The modeled propofol blood concentration at emergence in patients given an antiepileptic (0.5 ± 0.03 μg/ml) was significantly lower than without an antiepileptic (0.7 ± 0.02 μg/ml) (P < 0.0001). The time to emerge in patients given an antiepileptic (29.5 ± 12.5 min) was significantly longer than without an antiepileptic (21.6 min ± 10.0 min) (P < 0.0001). Conclusion The propofol dose required for anesthesia and the time to emerge from anesthesia are not affected by the type of neurological disorder, but are affected by antiepileptic use.

Abstract
The paper examines the effects of anaesthesia on circulatory physiology and their implications regarding improvement in perioperative anaesthetic management. Changes to current anaesthetic practice, recommended recently, such as the use of flow monitoring in high risk patients, are already beginning to have an impact in reducing complications but not mortality [1]. Better understanding of the patho-physiology should help improve management even further. Analysis of selected individual clinical trials has been used to illustrate particular areas of patho-physiology and how changes in practice have improved outcome. There is physiological support for the importance of achieving an appropriate rate of oxygen delivery (DO2), particularly following induction of anaesthesia. It is suggested that ensuring adequate DO2 during anaesthesia will avoid development of oxygen debt and hence obviate the need to induce a high, compensatory, DO2 in the post-operative period. In contrast to the usual assumptions underlying strategies requiring a global increase in blood flow [1] by a stroke volume near maximization strategy, blood flow control actually resides entirely at the tissues not at the heart. This is important as the starting point for understanding failed circulatory control as indicated by 'volume dependency'. Local adjustments in blood flow at each individual organ - auto-regulation - normally ensure the appropriate local rate of oxygen supply, i.e. local DO2. Inadequate blood volume leads to impairment of the regulation of blood flow, particularly in the individual tissues with least capable auto-regulatory capability. As demonstrated by many studies, inadequate blood flow first occurs in the gut, brain and kidney. The inadequate blood volume which occurs with induction of anaesthesia is not due to blood volume loss, but probably results from redistribution due to veno-dilation. The increase in venous capacity renders the existing blood volume inadequate to maintain venous return and pre-load. Blood volume shifted to the veins will, necessarily, also reduce the arterial volume. As a result stroke volume and cardiac output fall below normal with little or no change in peripheral resistance. The resulting pre-load dependency is often successfully treated with colloid infusion and, in some studies, 'inotropic' agents, particularly in the immediate post-operative phase. Treatment during the earliest stage of anaesthesia can avoid the build up of oxygen debt and may be supplemented by drugs which maintain or restore venous tone, such as phenylephrine; an alternative to volume expansion. Interpretation of circulatory patho-physiology during anaesthesia confirms the need to sustain appropriate oxygen delivery. It also supports reduction or even elimination of supplementary crystalloid maintenance infusion, supposedly to replace the "mythical" third space loss. As a rational evidence base for future research it should allow for further improvements in anaesthetic management.

Abstract
Perioperative blood pressure management is a key factor of patient care for anesthetists, as perioperative hemodynamic instability is associated with cardiovascular complications. Hypertension is an independent predictive factor of cardiac adverse events in noncardiac surgery. Intraoperative hypotension is one of the most encountered factors associated with death related to anesthesia. In the preoperative setting, the majority of antihypertensive medications should be continued until surgery. Only renin-angiotensin system antagonists may be stopped. Hypertension, especially in the case of mild to moderate hypertension, is not a cause for delaying surgery. During the intraoperative period, anesthesia leads to hypotension. Hypotension episodes should be promptly treated by intravenous vasopressors, and according to their etiology. In the postoperative setting, hypertension predominates. Continuation of antihypertensive medications and postoperative care may be insufficient. In these cases, intravenous antihypertensive treatments are used to control blood pressure elevation.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW To evaluate the most recent publications in the long-lived debate over the use of etomidate in critically ill septic and trauma patients. RECENT FINDINGS Virtually without controversy is the hemodynamic stability after its use for induction of anesthesia on the one hand, and its negative effect on steroid synthesis on the other. The rating of the relative importance of both phenomena for the outcome of patients is however a highly controversial issue. We will discuss the most recent publications for two patient groups: trauma and critically ill septic patients. New meta-analyses and smaller studies have been published and might help us to weigh pros and cons in our patients. Sufficiently powered randomized controlled trials remain absent. The question whether supplemented corticosteroids after etomidate improve outcome is answered negatively by two recent studies. SUMMARY A single dose of etomidate supplies good intubation conditions with hemodynamic stability, but increases the risk for adrenal insufficiency. The relative importance of these characteristics for the patients' outcome remains controversial, as there is a lack of direct evidence. According to the principle 'nihil nocere', reasoning argues against its use, especially in septic patients or in those at major risk to develop septic complications (e.g. trauma patients).
