Haemodynamic stability is an integral and essential goal of any anaesthetic management plan. Laryngoscopy and intubation can cause striking changes in haemodynamics. Increase in blood pressure and heart rate occurs most commonly from reflex sympathetic and vagal discharge in response to laryngotracheal stimulation, which in turn leads to increased plasma norepinephrine concentration. This study was designed to compare efficacy of esmolol and lignocaine for attenuating haemodynamics response due to laryngoscopy and endotracheal intubation. The aim of this study was to compare the effects of Esmolol with that of Lignocaine to attenuate the detrimental rise in heart rate and blood pressure during laryngoscopy and tracheal intubation. One hundred and twenty adult patients randomized into group-L and group-E, were received lignocaine 1.5 mg/kg and Esmolol 1.5 mg/kg I.V. respectively. Heart rate and blood pressure in each minutes for the 10 minutes after intubation was recorded. Time span around intubation up to 4 minutes has been looked specifically to isolate the effect of the study drugs at the time of intubation. For statistical analysis Student's 't' test was used for comparing means of quantitative data and chi-square test was used for qualitative data. Difference was considered statistically significant if p<0.05. The mean heart rate, systolic, diastolic, and mean blood pressure, and rate-pressure product before starting anesthesia were similar in group-L (Lignocaine group) and in group-E (Esmolol group) (p>0.05). The mean values of heart rate, systolic, diastolic, and mean blood pressure, and rate-pressure product at 2, 3 and 4 minutes after intubation were significantly lower in group-E than group-L (p<0.05). In conclusion, esmolol 1.5 mg/kg is superior to lignocaine (1.5 mg/kg) for attenuation of haemodynamic response to laryngoscopy and endotracheal intubation.

Fifty-five determinations of cardiovascular functions were made on eight dogs under chloralose-urethane anesthesia and forty-one on six dogs under 21-hydroxypregnane-3,20 dione sodium succinate (Viadril). No preanesthetic medication was used. Cardiac output was determined by the dye dilution technique, using the cuvette oximeter. Blood pressure was determined by strain gauge. The mean values found under chloralose-urethane were: cardiac index 4.08, mean blood pressure 146 mm Hg, peripheral resistance 5709 dynes/sec/cm–5, heart rate 149 beats/min. and stroke index 27 cc. The mean values found under 21-hydroxypregnane-3, 20 dione sodium succinate were: cardiac index 5.15, mean blood pressure 104 mm Hg, peripheral resistance 3997 dynes/sec/cm–5, heart rate 172 beats/min. and stroke index 29 cc. When successive determinations were made within a short period of time, the cardiac index and stroke index increased, peripheral resistance decreased and blood pressure and heart rate remained fairly steady.

Background Endotracheal intubation is an essential part of safe airway management but this stimulates the patient’s airway reflexes and predictably leads to haemodynamic derangement. Many drugs have been suggested in modifying in haemodynamic responses to laryngoscopy and intubation. Objectives To assess efficacy of three drugs - esmolol, fentanyl and lignocaine and to assess which one is more effective to attenuate haemodynamic response to direct laryngoscopy and endotracheal intubation. Methods A total number of 90 patients ASA class I and II were selected randomly as per inclusion and exclusion criteria in three groups, 30 patients in each group. Group A received esmolol 1.5mg/kg in the volume of 10ml (with distil water) 2min before intubation, group B received fentanyl 1.5mg/kg IV 5min before intubation and group C received lignocaine 1.5mg/kg IV 90 sec before intubation. Per-operative data were recorded at 1min, 2min, 5min and 10min after intubation. Results The mean heart rate, systolic, diastolic,mean arterial pressure before starting anaesthesia were similar in group-A (esmolol), B(fentanyl) and C(lignocaine). The mean values of heart rate and rate pressure product were significantly lower in group A(Esmolol) at 1 and 2 minute than group B(fentanyl) and at 1, 2 and 5 minute than group C(lignocaine). The mean values of systolic, diastolic and mean arterial pressure were slightly lower in group A(esmolol) at 5 minute than group B(fentanyl) and significantly lower at 1, 2 and 5 minute than group C(lignocaine). Conclusion Esmolol 1.5mg/kg is superior to lignocaine 1.5mg/kg for attenuation of haemodynamic response (HR, SBP, DBP, RPP and MAP) to laryngoscopy and endotracheal intubation and also superior to fentanyl for attenuation of HR and RPP.

ABSTRACT Introduction In recent years, the various health benefits of meditation have been acknowledged by the scientific community as well as by the public. Apart from its physiological benefits, it can also improve the psychological and spiritual well-being. A case–control study was planned to investigate the effect of Rajyoga Meditation on cardiovascular autonomic activity in meditators and nonmeditators. Materials and methods The study was conducted on 100 subjects, randomized into two groups: meditators (n = 50; age 35.80 ± 7.69 years) and nonmeditators (n = 50; age 36.76 ± 6.38 years). The meditator group practiced meditation for 30 minutes in the morning as well as in the evening. The control group did not practice any type of meditation or relaxation techniques. The cardiovascular parameters – heart rate (HR), systolic (SBP) and diastolic blood pressure (DBP), and Valsalva maneuver tests – were performed in both the groups in the same environmental conditions. The data were compiled and analyzed using unpaired t test. Results The mean values of HR in meditators and the control group were 77.08 ± 5.39 and 80.68 ± 5.71 respectively, and the difference was statistically significant (p < 0.001). The mean values of SBP in meditators and nonmeditators were 124.60 ± 5.39 and 129.56 ± 4.30 mm Hg respectively, while those for DBP were 77.84 ± 4.65 and 80.80 ± 4.78 mm Hg respectively. The difference in both was statistically significant. In meditators, Valsalva ratio was 1.60 ± 0.20, while in nonmeditators, it was 1.33 ± 0.13, and the difference was highly significant. Conclusion Significant improvement is seen in physiological, cardiac, and parasympathetic parameters in Rajyoga meditators. A shift of the autonomic balance toward the parasympathetic side is seen. By purposefully energizing the parasympathetic system by meditation, we can combat the ill effects of stress and help heal many health conditions.

A prospective comparative study was done on lignocaine versus lignocaine with pethidine to observe the effect on cardiovascular response to laryngoscopy and endotracheal intubation. One hundred such elective surgical patients of active age group (16 - 60 years) having American Society of Anaesthesiologist (ASA) physical status I & II irrespective of surgical procedure were randomly assigned to one of the two groups of 50 each. Group I received injection lignocaine 1 mg/kg intravenously 02 minutes before induction of general anaesthesia. Patients in group II received injection pethidine 1 mg/kg body weight and injection lignocaine 1 mg/kg body weight intravenously 02 minutes before induction of general anaesthesia. Haemodynamic parameter i.e. blood pressures (systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure and mean blood pressure), heart rate, rate pressure product were monitored after 1st, 3rd, 5th minutes following intubation. There were statistically significant (p<0.001) increase in blood pressures, heart rate and rate pressure product in group I i.e. pretreatment with 1 mg/kg body weight intravenous lignocaine and remained so after 5 minutes. On the other hand there were no statistically significant (p>0.05) increase in heart rate, blood pressures and rate pressure product in group II, where pretreatment done with pethidine 1 mg/kg body weight with lignocaine 1 mg/kg body weight and the values returned control level before 5 minutes. The study showed that pethidine 1 mg/kg body weight with lignocaine 1 mg/kg body weight pretreatment suppresses the cardiovascular response due to laryngoscopy and intubation.

Background: Cardiovascular stress due to reflex sympathetic over activity is a great concern during laryngoscopy and endotracheal intubation. Aims and Objectives: To compare the efficacy and safety of esmolol and verapamil for attenuation of hemodynamic effects (heart rate, systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure and mean arterial pressure) due to laryngoscopy and endotracheal intubation in elective surgical cases. Materials and Methods: A prospective, randomized, double blinded, controlled study was conducted on 60 patients divided equally into 30 each receiving esmolol (2 mg/kg body weight) and verapamil (0.1 mg/kg body weight) respectively. Heart rate, systolic and diastolic blood pressure and mean arterial pressure were recordedat pre-operative stage, after administration of the study drugs, immediately after intubation and at 1 ,3 ,5 minutes after intubation. Data collected were statistically analyzed. Results: The mean systolic blood pressure was lower in the esmolol group at all times of estimation compared with the verapamil group and the difference was at the time of intubation (p value <0.001).The mean diastolic blood pressure was lower in the esmolol group at all times of estimation compared to the verapamil group which was not statistically significant at any time of estimation. The mean arterial pressure was significantly lower at the time of immediately after intubation (p<0.001) in esmolol as compared to verapamil group. Adverse effects in both the study groups were insignificant. Conclusion: Esmololand Verapamil can effectively attenuate the cardiovascular stress to laryngoscopy and endotracheal intubation with the former appears to be a better alternative from efficacy and safety perspectives.

ABSTRACT Background Analgosedation is often used for endotracheal intubation in neonates, but no consensus exists on the optimal pre-procedural medication. Aims To compare the time to intubation and vital signs during and after intubation in 2 NICUs using different premedication protocols. Methods Prospective observational study in 2 tertiary NICUs, comparing fentanyl and optional vecuronium for elective neonatal endotracheal intubation (NICU-1) with atropine, morphine, midazolam and optional pancuronium (NICU-2). Primary endpoints were: time to intubate and number of intubation attempts; secondary endpoints were: deviations of heart rate, oxygen saturation and blood pressure from baseline until 20 min post intubation. Results 45 and 30 intubations were analyzed in NICU-1 and NICU-2. Time to intubation was longer in NICU-1 (7 min) than in NICU-2 (4 min; p=0.029), but the mean number of intubation attempts did not differ significantly. Bradycardias (34 vs. 1, p<0.001) and hypoxemias (136 vs. 48, p<0.001) were more frequent in NICU-1, and tachycardias (59 vs. 72, p<0.001) more frequent in NICU-2. Mean arterial blood pressure (MAP) increased in NICU-1 (+6.18 mmHg) and decreased in NICU-2 (−5.83 mmHg), whereas mean heart rates (HR) decreased in NICU-1 (−19.29 bpm) and increased in NICU-2 (+15.93 bpm). MAP and HR returned to baseline 6–10 min after intubation in NICU-1 and after 11–15 min and 16–20 min in NICU-2, respectively. Conclusions The two protocols yielded significant differences in the time to intubation and in the extent and duration of physiologic changes during and post-intubation. Short acting drugs should be preferred and vital signs should be closely monitored at least 20 min post intubation. More studies are required to identify analgosedation protocols that minimize potentially harmful events during endotracheal intubation.

AIM: This study aimed to compare the effects of dexmedetomidine and propofol in controlling the hemodynamic response following intubation of patients’ candidate intubation in the emergency department METHODS: A total of 114 patients were randomly assigned to one of 2 groups to receive one of the following treatments: dexmedetomidine 0.4 µg/kg (Group D, n = 57) and propofol 1–1.5 mg/kg/h (Group P, n = 57). Hemodynamic data such as the systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, arterial oxygen saturation and heart rate (HR) were recorded from the entrance to operation room to 5, 10 and 15 min after tracheal intubation RESULTS: Compared with group D, group P exhibited increases in mean arterial blood pressure (MAP), and systolic blood pressure significantly at all times and immediately after the endotracheal intubation. Moreover, the mean diastolic blood pressure changes due to tracheal intubation in group P were significantly more than group D immediately after the intubation. Furthermore, the mean heart rate changes immediately and 5 min after tracheal intubation was significantly higher in group P CONCLUSION: Our data suggest that the benefits of dexmedetomidine more than propofol in hemodynamic stability because propofol was associated with more variability in systolic/diastolic blood pressure, HR and MAP after endotracheal intubation.

BACKGROUND The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the efficacy of intravenous lignocaine 1.5 mg / kg & intravenous dexmedetomidine 1 mcg / kg for attenuating the haemodynamic response to laryngoscopy & endotracheal intubation in patients undergoing elective surgery under general anaesthesia. METHODS In this prospective randomised, comparative, clinical study, 60 patients were randomly divided into 2 groups, among them 30 patients were given infusion of 1.5 mg / kg IV lignocaine, diluted to 10 ml with normal saline, 3 minutes before intubation & 30 patients were given infusion of dexmedetomidine 1 mcg / kg diluted to 25 ml in normal saline over 10 minutes through infusion pump before induction. The heart rate, systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, mean arterial pressure, rate pressure product, oxygen saturation were measured at baseline, after study drug intubation at L + 1, L + 3, L + 5, L + 7 & L + 10 (L is onset of laryngoscopy). Statistical analysis was done by using descriptive & inferential statistics using chisquare test, Students paired & unpaired t test to find out the significance of the five variables namely mean heart rate (HR), mean systolic blood pressure (SBP), mean diastolic blood pressure (DBP), mean arterial pressure (MAP) and mean rate pressure product (RPP). RESULTS Dexmedetomidine provided better blunting of stress response during laryngoscopy and intubation without causing clinically significant respiratory depression, bradycardia or hypotension. It is better in achieving a low RPP, which is a good predictor of myocardial oxygen consumption. Dexmedetomidine provides better cardio-protection in patients against pressure response than lignocaine. CONCLUSIONS In these 60 patients, dexmedetomidine (1 mcg / kg) was found to be superior to lignocaine (1.5 mg / kg) for attenuation of pressor response.

Background and Study Aim. The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of metabolic stress created by 6-week football training applied in the pre-season period on circulation and hematological parameters of well-trained male football players.  Material and Methods. Fourteen male football players who competed in the U19 category of a football team in Turkish Football Super League participated in the study voluntarily. In the study, players’ systolic - diastolic blood pressures and resting heart rates were measured and their blood samples were taken before and after the 6-week training period. Laboratory analysis was made to determine counts and concentration percentage of erythrocyte, leukocyte, and platelet sub-parameters. Wilcoxon Signed-Rank test was performed to determine the difference between pre and post measurements. Results. Our findings indicated that baseline mean values of lymphocyte, mean cell hemoglobin, and mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration were significantly higher than posttest mean values. The mean of diastolic blood pressure and resting heart rate measured before the preseason training camp were lower than their posttest mean values (p > .05). Conclusion. It is thought that the decrease in the mean values of diastolic blood pressure and resting heart rate caused by the effect of regular training during the preseason training period, while the increase in the mean values of mean cell haemoglobin and mean corpuscular haemoglobin concentration caused by the increased oxygen demand of the metabolism during the training period.

Background. Hemodynamic responses to laryngoscopy and endotracheal intubation are transient in most patients. However, in some patients with a history of heart disease, systemic hypertension, or cerebrovascular disease, these may lead to dangerous complications. This study is aimed at determining the effectiveness of intravenous nitroglycerin bolus doses in reducing hemodynamic responses to laryngoscopy and endotracheal intubation. Material and Method. In this double-blind randomized controlled trial, 78 patients aged 18 to 65 years were randomly divided into three groups: 1 μg/kg dose of nitroglycerin (first group), 2 μg/kg dose of nitroglycerin (second group), and normal saline or placebo (third group). 26 samples were allocated for each group. Patients’ hemodynamic responses to laryngoscopy and endotracheal intubation were measured at different times. Data were analyzed using SPSS V 16. Results. Patients in the three study groups were similar in terms of age, sex, and weight. There was no significant difference between the mean saturation of peripheral oxygen (SPO2) and the mean heart rate between the three groups before endotracheal intubation and 1 to 10 minutes after intubation ( P > 0.05 ). The difference of mean arterial blood pressure between study groups was only significant in the first and fifth minutes after intubation. Mean systolic and diastolic blood pressure in the first, third, and fifth minutes after intubation was significantly lower in the intervention groups than the control group ( P < 0.05 ). However, no significant difference was observed between the intervention groups. The frequency of systolic blood pressure decrease was significantly different in the first and fifth minutes after intubation in the three study groups ( P < 0.05 ). Conclusion. Bolus doses of 1 and 2 μg/kg nitroglycerin in noncardiac elective surgery prevents the increase of mean systolic, diastolic, and arterial blood pressure but has no significant effect on heart rate after intubation.
