Assessment of cardiovascular parameters and oxygen saturation levels in induction of sevoflurane with or without nitrous oxide V/s propofol
Journal Title: Scholars Journal of Applied Medical Sciences - Year 2016, Vol 4, Issue 12
Abstract
The study was performed on the anaesthetic induction, cardiovascular parametric changes and patient satisfaction of sevoflurane with nitrous oxide or without nitrous oxide in related to a rapid intravenous anaesthetic agent propofol. A total three hundred patients belonging to physical status I or II of American society of Anesthesiologists were considered and were made into three groups i.e. with sevoflurane (100%) (n=50), sevoflurane (8%) with N2O (n=50) and 1% propofol at a rate of 0.5ml/sec (n=50). Systolic and diastolic blood pressure and oxygen saturation was recorded before and after induction. Mean pre-operative pulse rate was 81.4 ±9.48 in group I, 80.45±9.23 in group II and 79.68±9.98 in group III. Mean pulse rate was increased in all the groups after induction. Mean SBP 121.9±11.71 in group I, 124.9±7.41 in group II and 124.4±7.19 in group III. Mean SBP was decreased in all the groups after induction. Mean DBP 76.8±6.62 in group I, 77.86±6.32 in group II and 77.37±5.66 in group III. Mean DBP was decreased in all the groups after induction. No arrhythmias were observed in any patient. Patient performance and patient satisfaction was pleasant. 8% of sevoflurane carried in nitrous oxide and oxygen is a rapid, reliable and safe method for induction of anaesthesia while using vital capacity technique. Keywords:Propofol, Sevoflurane, Nitrous oxide, systolic blood pressure, Diastolic blood pressure.
