Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| The incidence of hypotension till 30 minutes post induction of general anesthesia.Measurement of systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP), mean arterial pressure MAP at baseline, and T1-T6 till up to 3 min post intubation will be done using M-entropy module (S5 Datex Ohmeda, Instrumentarium Corp., Helsinki, Finland). T0=Baseline (before fentanyl). • T1 = Induction. • T2 = 1 min post induction. • T3 = 3 min post induction. • T4 = immediately following laryngoscopy. • T5 = 1 min post intubation. • T6 = 3 min post intubation (volatile anesthetic started at this point). | — |
