Filter by:The goal of this clinical trial is to to evaluate the efficacy of lidocaine sprayed at the laryngeal inlet combined with the endotracheal tube cuff compare with intravenous lidocaine on the hemodynamic response to laryngoscopy and intubation in patients undergoing elective neurological procedures during general anesthesia with total intravenous technique. The main question it aims to answer is: - Does topical lidocaine sprayed at the laryngeal inlet combined with the endotracheal tube cuff have more effect on stabilizing hemodynamic responses to laryngoscopy and intubation than intravenous lidocaine, in neurosurgical patients who undergo general anesthesia with total intravenous technique? Participants will be recruited and randomized to receive either lidocaine spray (Group SL) or intravenous lidocaine (group IL) to blunt hemodynamic response to laryngoscopy and intubation.
Ambulatory surgery is increasingly used in anesthesia. In case of general anesthesia, it is recommended to use anesthesia molecules with a short half-life and low doses of opiates to ensure a rapid awakening and to prevent nausea and vomiting by systematic administration of anti-emetics during the operation. Opiates (including sufentanil) have recently been called into question because of the nausea and vomiting and the delay in waking up induced by these molecules. To combat these side effects, the authors have proposed either to reduce the doses or to substitute them with dexmedetomidine, a sedative antihypertensive drug. Recent studies have demonstrated that opiates used in general anesthesia can be replaced by dexmedetomidine. However, literature data are controversial concerning the hemodynamic impact. No study has compared the hemodynamic profile of opioid-free anesthesia with dexmedetomidine versus conventional anesthesia with opioids. The ambulatory context lends itself to the use of dexmedetomidine because it is aimed at a population without strong cardiac pathology, concerns non-major interventions, with the need to optimize pain and side effects. The study authors therefore wish to compare the effects of induction of general anesthesia with low-dose Dexmedetomidine versus sufentanil, on post-induction hemodynamic stability in scheduled outpatient surgeries. The investigators hypothesize that hemodynamic stability at induction of general anesthesia with low-dose dexmedetomidine is not inferior to that obtained with sufentanil in scheduled ambulatory surgeries.
This randomized study aims to evaluate the effect of preoperative dexmedetomidine nebulization on blunting hemodynamic response for laryngoscope, intubation and pneumoperitoneum in morbidly obese patients undergoing laparoscopic bariatric surgery.
The goal of this clinical trial (pilot study) is to learn about the microcirculatory regulation of the lower extremity under orthostatic stress with and without RIC - Remote Ischemic Preconditioning in healthy participants. The main question it aims to answer are: Do the beneficial effects of RIC withstand orthostatic stress? / Does RIC benefit lower extremity microcirculation in ortho-statically stressed subjects? Is there a relationship/correlation between the variables of microcirculation and hemodynamics in the context of RIC and orthostatic loading?
This study is being conducted to evaluate the hemodynamic performance (i.e. flow of blood) in the legs using the new Kendall SCD SmartFlow™ compression system with Cardinal Health Element compression sleeves.
The goal of this randomized crossover clinical trial is to determine if habitual sleeping habits can predict endurance performance following a night of partial sleep deprivation in healthy untrained, recreationally trained, and trained cyclists (18-50 years, ~50% females). The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Can habitual sleeping habits predict, or do different types of sleepers alter, performance outcomes following sleep deprivation? 2. Does sleep deprivation alter blood pressure, heart rate, or metabolic responses during a 20-minute time trial, and/or are these altered amongst different types of sleepers? 3. Can habitual sleeping habits predict, or do different types of sleepers alter, flow-mediated dilation following a night of normal sleep and/or sleep deprivation? - Participants will be asked to perform 4 performance tests (20-minute time trial), 2 for familiarization, and 2 testing visits (1 under normal sleep and 1 under partial sleep deprivation). - For 1 week prior to each testing visit, sleep will be tracked using an ActiGraph device. - During each testing visit, and prior to the performance test, the vascular function of the superficial femoral artery will be assessed using a flow-mediated dilation technique. The investigators hypothesize that habitual early sleepers, poor sleepers, those with greater variability in sleep duration, and females will show the greatest impairments in performance and flow-mediated dilation following partial sleep deprivation.
Sepsis, a life-threatening syndrome, is often accompanied by tachycardia in spite of adequate volume resuscitation to correct hypovolemia and vasopressor medication to correct hypotension. Recently, relevant studies have shown that sustained tachycardia in sepsis was also related to high mortality, and appropriate control of heart rate could improve prognosis. Ivabradine reduces heart rate directly without a negative inotropic effect through inhibition of the If ionic current，which is absent from the traditional rate control drug (beta-blockers). This is a prospective, multicenter, randomized, open label study designed to compare ivabradine with placebo on the difference of heart rate and haemodynamics in patients with sepsis.
Aortic valve stenosis is the most common debilitating valvular heart lesion in old patients. Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) is an emergent technique for high-risk patients with aortic stenosis. In recent times, treatment has expanded to also include low- and intermediate-risk individuals. General anesthesia offers many advantages, mainly regarding the possibility of an early diagnosis and treatment of possible complications through the use of transesophageal echocardiography. Propofol is the most used sedative-hypnotic agent for the induction and maintenance of general anesthesia. However, adverse events such as hypotension, and bradycardia are associated with propofol sedation. Ciprofol is a novel anesthetic/sedative agent similar to propofol, with an equivalent efficacy ratio to propofol of 1/4 to 1/5. Ciprofol has properties of fast onset of action, rapid recovery, reduced injection pain and stable cardiorespiratory function, making it a promising alternative to propofol. The aim of this study is to explore the safety and efficacy of ciprofol when used for general anesthesia in patients undergoing transcatheter aortic valve replacement compared to propofol.
Propofol is widely used as an induction agent during general anesthesia. The prevalent induction dose may be associated with unacceptable cardiovascular instability, especially in elderly patients.The combination of ketamine and propofol has been shown to balance the cardiodepressant effects. Esketamine is dextrorotatory structure of ketamine but with stronger analgesic effects and fewer adverse events.However, there have been no previous published reports on the use of esketamine combined with propofol during induction. The main aim of this study was to investigate the haemodynamic effects of esketamine with propofol for the elderly during induction with LMA( laryngeal mask airway) insertion.
The goal of this randomized, placebo-controlled, three-condition, double-blind, within-participants crossover clinical trial is to compare caffeine, TeaCrine plus caffeine, and a placebo condition in ROTC or tactical personnel. The main question it aims to answer is the effect of the condition on measures of cognitive performance, cardio-autonomic, and hemodynamic responses after a physically demanding protocol. The physiological function will be derived from metrics of heart rate variability, whilst cogntive performance will be evaluated using tasks that assess cognitive domains of executive function, reaction time, and memory. Participants will report to the lab 4 times, once for familiarization of cognitive measures and then 3 times for their experimental visits. Participants will consume their randomized condition an hour prior to the fatiguing interval exercise protocol. Following they will complete a series of cognitive tasks.
