Comparison of the Hemodynamic Effects of Intravenous Induction with Thiopentone Sodium, Protocol and Etomidate in Patients Undergoing General Anesthesia
Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Dental and Medical Sciences (IOSR-JDMS) - Year 2018, Vol 17, Issue 8
Abstract
AIM:To compare the haemodynamic effectsof thiopentone,propofol and etomidate and to study the side effects.MATERIALS AND METHODS:After taking institutional ethical committee approval and informed consent ,90 patients aged between 20-50 yrs of ASA Grade 1&11 undergoing elective surgeries under general anaesthesia were randomly divided into3groups Group T, Group P and Group E.Group Tpatients were induced with thiopental 5mg/kg, Group P – patients received propofol 2mg/kg and Group E received etomidate 0.3mg/kg. Haemodynamic variables like H.R,B.P(systolic and diastolic) and Spo2 recorded before induction and at 1,3.5,10.15 and 30 mts post induction and S.E if any are noted.RESULTS :There was significant fall in HR in propofol group compared to thiopentone and etomidate groups. There was also significant decrease in systolic blood pressure , diastolic blood pressure and mean blood pressure in patients of propofol and thiopentone groups than those of etomidate groups. Conclusion: Present study concludes that etomidate is an effective induction agent with good cardiovascular stability when compared with thiopentone and propofol.
