Conditions

Cerebral Oxygen Saturation

Brief summary

The purpose of this study is to analyze the changes in cerebral oxygen saturation during the use of three vasopressors, phenylephrine, norepinephrine, and vasopressin, which are currently used during coronary artery bypass grafting.

Interventions

DRUGPhenylephrine

Continuous infusion of Phenylenphrine 250 μg/mL (=Phenylephrine 10mg \* 5@ + D5W 200 mL) if mean BP \< 60mmHg. 1. Initial rate: 0.42 μg/kg/min (=0.1 mL/kg/hr) 2. Increment by 0.21 μg/kg/min (=0.05 mL/kg/hr) if mean BP \< 60mmHg after 5 minutes 3. Maximum rate: 3.33 μg/kg/min (=0.8 mL/kg/hr)

DRUGNorepinephrine

Continuous infusion of Norepienphrine 20 μg/mL (=NE 4mg \* 1@ + D5W 200 mL) if mean BP \< 60mmHg. 1. Initial rate: 0.03 μg/kg/min (=0.1 mL/kg/hr) 2. Increment by 0.015 μg/kg/min (=0.05 mL/kg/hr) if mean BP \< 60mmHg after 5 minutes 3. Maximum rate: 0.24 μg/kg/min (=0.8 mL/kg/hr)

DRUGVasopressin

Continuous infusion of Vasopressin 0.1 u/mL (=Vasopressin 20u \* 1@ + D5W 200 mL) if mean BP \< 60mmHg. 1. Initial rate: 0.01 u/kg/hr (=0.1 mL/kg/hr) 2. Increment by 0.005 u/kg/hr (=0.05 mL/kg/hr) if mean BP \< 60mmHg after 5 minutes 3. Maximum rate: 0.08 u/kg/hr (=0.8 mL/kg/hr)
