Effects of Vasopressors on Cerebral Hemodynamics in Patients With Carotid

Status Recruiting

Clinical Trial Summary

This study was a single-center, exploratory, randomized controlled trial. First, the effects of ephedrine, phenylephrine, or norepinephrine on cerebral blood flow hemodynamics in patients undergoing carotid endarterectomy were evaluated using TCD techniques to investigate the specific mechanisms of the three vasopressors on cerebral blood flow and oxygen metabolism in brain tissues.

Clinical Trial Description

Carotid endarterectomy is a procedure used to remove plaque from the common and internal carotid arteries and improve cerebral perfusion. Clinical studies have demonstrated the effectiveness of this procedure in both symptomatic and asymptomatic patients. intraoperative circulatory management challenges in carotid endarterectomy include the following: ① the incidence of preoperative combined coronary artery disease, hypertension and diabetes mellitus is relatively high in patients undergoing carotid endarterectomy, and there is a pathological basis for systemic vascular injury, increasing the risk of perioperative cardiovascular and cerebrovascular complications, such as myocardial ischemia and stroke. ② During the CEA procedure, the common carotid artery, internal carotid artery and external carotid artery and the superior thyroid artery need to be blocked respectively, the source of blood supply to the cerebral hemisphere on the operated side is reduced and depends only on the Willis circle supply. ③ Carotid sinus pressure receptor pull stimulation causes circulatory fluctuations. During CEA, a relatively high arterial pressure is required to provide adequate cerebral perfusion. However, achieving this target blood pressure level intraoperatively can be challenging due to given conditions, the presence of induction drugs and anesthetics. Therefore, it is particularly important to maintain cerebral hemodynamic stability and ensure tissue perfusion with intraoperative use of vasopressors. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of ephedrine, phenylephrine, or norepinephrine on cerebral blood flow hemodynamics in CEA patients using TCD techniques to investigate the specific mechanisms of the three boosting agents on cerebral blood flow and oxygen metabolism in brain tissues. ;

Clinical trials are conducted in a series of steps, called phases - each phase is designed to answer a separate research question.

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.
