| T1 |
0-106 |
Sentence |
denotes |
Phenylephrine but not ephedrine reduces frontal lobe oxygenation following anesthesia-induced hypotension. |
| T2 |
107-118 |
Sentence |
denotes |
BACKGROUND: |
| T3 |
119-189 |
Sentence |
denotes |
Vasopressor agents are used to correct anesthesia-induced hypotension. |
| T4 |
190-324 |
Sentence |
denotes |
We describe the effect of phenylephrine and ephedrine on frontal lobe oxygenation (S(c)O(2)) following anesthesia-induced hypotension. |
| T5 |
325-333 |
Sentence |
denotes |
METHODS: |
| T6 |
334-560 |
Sentence |
denotes |
Following induction of anesthesia by fentanyl (0.15 mg kg(-1)) and propofol (2.0 mg kg(-1)), 13 patients received phenylephrine (0.1 mg iv) and 12 patients received ephedrine (10 mg iv) to restore mean arterial pressure (MAP). |
| T7 |
561-680 |
Sentence |
denotes |
Heart rate (HR), MAP, stroke volume (SV), cardiac output (CO), and frontal lobe oxygenation (S(c)O(2)) were registered. |
| T8 |
681-689 |
Sentence |
denotes |
RESULTS: |
| T9 |
690-806 |
Sentence |
denotes |
Induction of anesthesia was followed by a decrease in MAP, HR, SV, and CO concomitant with an elevation in S(c)O(2). |
| T10 |
807-914 |
Sentence |
denotes |
After administration of phenylephrine, MAP increased (51 +/- 12 to 81 +/- 13 mmHg; P < 0.001; mean +/- SD). |
| T11 |
915-1062 |
Sentence |
denotes |
However, a 14% (from 70 +/- 8% to 60 +/- 7%) reduction in S(c)O(2) (P < 0.05) followed with no change in CO (3.7 +/- 1.1 to 3.4 +/- 0.9 l min(-1)). |
| T12 |
1063-1243 |
Sentence |
denotes |
The administration of ephedrine led to a similar increase in MAP (53 +/- 9 to 79 +/- 8 mmHg; P < 0.001), restored CO (3.2 +/- 1.2 to 5.0 +/- 1.3 l min(-1)), and preserved S(c)O(2). |
| T13 |
1244-1256 |
Sentence |
denotes |
CONCLUSIONS: |
| T14 |
1257-1461 |
Sentence |
denotes |
The utilization of phenylephrine to correct hypotension induced by anesthesia has a negative impact on S(c)O(2) while ephedrine maintains frontal lobe oxygenation potentially related to an increase in CO. |
