Preoperative, Phentolamine, Intraoperative, Esmolol, Hypotensive Anesthesia, Functional Endoscopic Sinus Surgery
Conditions
Brief summary
The aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of intra-operative phentolamine vs intraoperative esmolol for hypotensive anesthesia in functional endoscopic sinus surgery.
Detailed description
Functional endoscopic sinus surgery (FESS) is becoming a widely performed operation. Its introduction associated with enhanced illumination and visualization has dramatically improved surgical dissection. However major complications have been reported for FESS under general anesthesia resulting from impaired visibility due to excessive bleeding. Esmolol is a selective β1-adrenoreceptor antagonist involved in the control of heart rate (HR), contractility, and atrioventricular conduction. Currently, the use of β-blockade for hemodynamic stability and cardiac protection is well accepted among anesthesia providers, but recently, researchers have begun to explore the perioperative use of esmolol as an anesthetic adjunct. Esmolol was found to produce desired hypotension without tachycardia and improved surgical condition by reducing operative field bleeding. Phentolamine is well known selective α1-blocker which is used to treat hypertensive emergency by producing profound vasodilatation. The reduced blood pressure will induce response in the arterial baroreceptors leading to release of adrenal catecholamine, eventually inducing reflex tachycardia. The reflex tachycardia is less profound in the selective α1-blockers such as phentolamine. Phentolamine is a short acting drug with a context sensitive half-life of 15 minutes which makes it ideal for rapid control of blood pressure.
Interventions
DRUGPhentolamine
A loading dose of 1-5 mg IV bolus over 1 minute is given followed by an IV infusion of a rate of 0.1-2 mg/min according to patient desired target mean arterial pressure (MAP) 50-60 mmHg over a volume of 10ml
DRUGEsmolol
A loading dose of 1 mg/kg IV infused over 1 minute is given followed by an IV infusion of 0.15-0.3 mg/kg/min according to patient desired target mean arterial pressure (MAP) 50-60 mmHg over total volume of 10ml

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Mean arterial pressure | Until the end of surgery. | Mean arterial pressure will be recorded at pre-induction, after the loading dose of the hypotensive agent, after injection of local vasoconstrictor and then every 15 minutes until the end of surgery. |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Heart rate | Until the end of surgery | Heart rate will be recorded at pre-induction, after the loading dose of the hypotensive agent, after injection of local vasoconstrictor and then every 15 minutes until the end of surgery. |
| Adverse events | 24 hours postoperative | Adverse events will be recorded such as bradycardia, hypotension, nausea, vomiting, Pruritis, respiratory depression, or any other complication. |
