Alterations in Hemodynamic Response to Laryngoscopy and Intubation by Lidocaine, Esmolol, and Nitroglycerin-A comparative study
Journal Title: Journal of Medical Science And clinical Research - Year 2018, Vol 6, Issue 10
Abstract
Background: The pressure response to laryngoscopy and endotracheal intubation has been recognized since long, resulting a rise in pulse and blood pressure. Aims and Objectives: To compare the safety and efficacy of standard IV bolus doses of lidocaine, esmolol, and nitroglycerin in modifying the acute hemodynamic response to laryngoscopy and tracheal intubation. Materials and Methods: The study sample of 60 normotensive patients were categorized in to 4 groups. Group 1 = saline 5 ml IV at time 0 minutes; Group 2 = lidocaine 1.5 mgikg IV at time 1 minute; Group 3 = esmolol 1.4 mglkg IV at time 2 minutes and Group 4 = nitroglycerin 2 µg/kg IV at time 3 minutes. The parameters measured were Mean arterial pressure and Heart Rate. Results: MAP increased significantly following tracheal intubation in all four groups (control 47%±20%, lidocaine 53% ± 27%, esmolol 24%±12%, nitroglycerin 43% ±22%) compared with preinduction baseline values. in the esmolol group, the increase in HR was significantly lower than in the other three groups. Conclusion: Esmolol was significantly more effective than either lidocaine or nitroglycerin in controlling the increase in HR, and in minimizing the increase in MAP following tracheal intubation.
