About this study

Hypertensive patients have more hemodynamic instability during general anesthesia than do patients with NORMOTENSION. In this study, the investigators evaluated the usefulness of carotid ultrasound and inferior vena cervical ultrasound for predicting hypotension after induction of anesthesia in patients with hypertension.

Read the detailed description

Carotid and venous ultrasonography is performed in a comfortable state. Corrected blood flow after carotid ultrasound and carotid artery blood flow rate were measured.

After inferior vena cava sonography, using the embedded software, the collapsibility Index by measuring the largest and smallest diameter during the respiratory cycle will be obtained.

After confirming baseline blood pressure and pulse rate, propofol 2 mg / kg is administered and remifentanil is maintained at 4.0 ng / mL using the Target Control System (TCI).

Following the administration of rocuronium 1.0-1.2 mg / kg, and 1 minute and 30 seconds after BIS 60 or less, endotracheal intubation is performed using video laryngoscope.

Blood pressure and heart rate are measured at prior to induction, 1 minute after the induction, immediately after intubation, and at 1, 3, 5, 7 and 10 minutes after intubation.

Post-induction hypotension after anesthesia induction is considered as a decrease of 20% or more of the pre-anesthesia blood pressure or a mean arterial blood pressure of less than 60 mmHg.

In the event of hypotension in accordance with the above definition, repeated administration of ephedrine 4 mg or phenylephrine 50 mcg is used.

  1. Prediction power of the post-induction hypotension of carotid sonography and inferior vena cava sonography

    To evaluate the ability of carotid sonography and inferior vena cava sonography for the post-induction hypotension in hypertensive patients undergoing general anesthesia, blood pressure was measured 8 times below time points.

    Measured: Prior to induction

  2. Prediction power of the post-induction hypotension of carotid sonography and inferior vena cava sonography

    To evaluate the ability of carotid sonography and inferior vena cava sonography for the post-induction hypotension in hypertensive patients undergoing general anesthesia, blood pressure was measured 1 minute after anesthetic induction.

    Measured: 1 minute after anesthetic induction

  3. Prediction power of the post-induction hypotension of carotid sonography and inferior vena cava sonography

    To evaluate the ability of carotid sonography and inferior vena cava sonography for the post-induction hypotension in hypertensive patients undergoing general anesthesia, blood pressure was measured Immediately after intubation.

    Measured: Immediately after intubation

  4. Prediction power of the post-induction hypotension of carotid sonography and inferior vena cava sonography

    To evaluate the ability of carotid sonography and inferior vena cava sonography for the post-induction hypotension in hypertensive patients undergoing general anesthesia, blood pressure was measured 1 minute after tracheal intubation.

    Measured: 1 minute after tracheal intubation

  5. Prediction power of the post-induction hypotension of carotid sonography and inferior vena cava sonography

    To evaluate the ability of carotid sonography and inferior vena cava sonography for the post-induction hypotension in hypertensive patients undergoing general anesthesia, blood pressure was measured 3 minutes after tracheal intubation.

    Measured: 3 minutes after tracheal intubation

  6. Prediction power of the post-induction hypotension of carotid sonography and inferior vena cava sonography

    To evaluate the ability of carotid sonography and inferior vena cava sonography for the post-induction hypotension in hypertensive patients undergoing general anesthesia, blood pressure was measured 5 minutes after tracheal intubation.

    Measured: 5 minutes after tracheal intubation

  7. Prediction power of the post-induction hypotension of carotid sonography and inferior vena cava sonography

    To evaluate the ability of carotid sonography and inferior vena cava sonography for the post-induction hypotension in hypertensive patients undergoing general anesthesia, blood pressure was measured 7 minutes after tracheal intubation.

    Measured: 7 minutes after tracheal intubation

  8. Prediction power of the post-induction hypotension of carotid sonography and inferior vena cava sonography

    To evaluate the ability of carotid sonography and inferior vena cava sonography for the post-induction hypotension in hypertensive patients undergoing general anesthesia, blood pressure was measured 10 minutes after tracheal intubation.

    Measured: 10 minutes after tracheal intubation

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of General Anesthesia, run by Yonsei University at 1 site in South Korea.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 11 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 17 Jun 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in South Korea. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Prediction power of the post-induction hypotension of carotid sonography and inferior vena cava sonography (time frame: Prior to induction). The study lists 8 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?
