To Compare and Evaluate Hemodynamic Effect of Propofol and Etofol as Induction Agents in Elective Surgeries
Journal Title: Indian Journal of Anesthesia and Analgesia - Year 2018, Vol 5, Issue 11
Abstract
Introduction: Various intravenous induction agents like propofol, ketamine and etomidate are available now a day to the anaesthetist but they also cause attenuation of axis leading to a decrease in heart rate and blood pressure. To achieve haemodynamic stability during induction is one of the major challenge and goal of the anaesthetist. Aims and objectives: To evaluate the hemodynamic effect of propofol and etofol as induction agents in elective surgeries under general anaesthesia . Material and Methodology: Sixty (60) ASA grade I and II patients of age group (1860 years) were divided randomly into two study groups of thirty patients each, as follows: Group IPropofol 2 mg/kg was given intravenously as induction agent Group IIEtofol (0.15mg/kg etomidate and 1mg/kg propofol) was given intravenously as induction agent. Results: In group II ( Etofol) lesser fall in haemodynamic parameters at induction and upto 60 minutes (p>0.05)of induction as compared to group I (Propofol). Conclusion: Etofol is more haemodynamically stable than propofol alone during induction.
