Background: Emergence from general anesthesia and removing of tracheal tube can be associated with coughing, agitation, and hemodynamic disturbances. Dexmedetomidine is an alpha two adrenoceptor agonist that has effective sedation with less cardiovascular unstability and respiratory depression and may be useful for extubation and prevention of hemodynamic response during tracheal tube removing....

Introduction: Blood loss is a common concern during functional endoscopic sinus surgery (FESS). The present study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of dexmedetomidine (DEX) in intraoperative bleeding and surgical field in FESS.   Materials and Methods: This double-blind randomized clinical trial was conducted on 72 patients within the age range of 16-60 years who underwent ...

background: etomidate and propofol are common anesthetic agents. previous studies say that etomidate can be used in patients with limited hemodynamic reserve and propofol can lead to more hemodynamic instabilities. th is study was performed to explore the cardiovascular response during the induction of anesthesia with etomidate or for comparison, propofol in elective orthopedic surgeries. mater...

Pulse contour methods (PCM) for the measurements of cardiac output (CO) are gaining popularity in intensive care settings but their reliability during hemodynamic instability has been questioned. Pressure-recording-analytical-method (PRAM) is a newly developed uncalibrated hemodynamic monitor and its capability in measuring CO during hemodynamic instability is still under investigation. Dobutam...

Fuzzy controllers are being used in various control schemes. The aim of this study is to adjust the hemodialysis machine parameters by utilizing a fuzzy logic controller (FLC) so that patient's hemodynamic condition remains stable during hemodialysis treatment. For this purpose, a comprehensive mathematical model of the arterial pressure response during hemodialysis, including hemodynamic, osmo...

Pain, restlessness, tension and delirium are almost always encountered while treating hemodynamic unstable critical patients in the intensive care units. Usually in critical patients, the evaluation of the nature and pain intensity (VAS scale) are often impossible. During the last 10 years intense nociceptor somatic and visceral post operative pain is believed to be the most crucial factor in t...

BACKGROUND Endotracheal intubation is a common procedure performed for critically ill patients that can have immediate life-threatening complications. Induction medications are routinely given to facilitate the procedure, but most of these medications are associated with hypotension. While etomidate is known for its neutral hemodynamic profile, it has been linked with increased mortality in sep...

s: Background And Objectives: The geriatric patients with limited reserved organs are very prone to develop cardiovascular instability during surgical procedures. Various anaesthetic techniques are advocated for the above purpose. Spinal anaesthesia is one of them and very useful in lower limb surgeries although it is frequently complicated with hemodynamic instability. Unilateral spinal anaest...
