Brief summary

This study evaluates if dynamic arterial elastance measured before general anesthesia induction can predict the occurrence of hypotension due to general anesthesia induction.

Detailed description

As general anesthetics may be responsible for vasodilation and cardiac depression, arterial hypotension after induction of general anesthesia is a common event and may contribute to an adverse outcome. Dynamic arterial elastance has been proposed as a functional parameter of arterial tone and studies showed that it was able to predict pressure response to fluid administration in fluid-responsive patients and the amount of mean arterial pressure riduction as a conseguence of noradrenaline dose reduction in critically ill patients.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Baseline value of Eadyn as predictor of hypotension occurrence due to general anesthesia inductionFrom baseline (before general anesthesia induction) up to 30 minutes.Dynamic arterial elastance (Eadyn) will be recorded at baseline before induction of general anesthesia. Mean arterial pressure (MAP) will be recorded at baseline and continuously until tracheal intubation. The lowest value of MAP will be considered to define hypotension occurrence.

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Correlation between Eadyn and severity of hypotension due to anesthesia inductionFrom baseline (before general anesthesia induction) up to 30 minutes.To evaluate the correlation between the baseline value of Eadyn and the severity of hypotension when it will occur after induction of general anesthesia
