A Comparative Study to Evaluate the Effects of Nitroglycerin and Esmolol on Haemodynamic Parameters in Controlled Hypertensive Patients During Emergence From Anaesthesia and Extubation
Journal Title: International Journal of Medical Research Professionals - Year 2017, Vol 3, Issue 3
Abstract
Introduction: Tracheal extubation is performed when the patient is in lighter stages of anaesthesia, which produces significant increase in heart rate & arterial pressure. These changes in physiology are a matter of concern in Hypertensive patients. So our aim was to compare the effects of Nitroglycerin & Esmolol on haemodynamic parameters in controlled hypertensive patients during emergence from anaesthesia & extubation. Material & Methods: The patients were randomly divided into two groups Group I (NTG group) (n=30): received nitroglycerin 0.5μg/kg/min, IV infusion Group II (Esmoolol group) (n=30): received Esmolol 100 μg/kg/min, IV infusion. Observations: Administration of Nitroglycerin & Esmolol in controlled hypertensive patients during emergence from anaesthesia & extubation in ASA gr II & III pts helps in controlling hypertension. However Esmolol has better control on heart rate & thus on Rate pressure product. Conclusion: Esmolol is better than NTG in controlling the haemodynamic parameters during extubation in controlled hypertensive patients, where rate pressure product is important predictor of complications (myocardial ischaemia).
