Abstract
Large bolus-dose remifentanil may be advantageous for use during induction of anesthesia because of its short duration of effect. Currently, there are little data on the use of large bolus-dose remifentanil because of reports of severe bradycardia and hypotension. The purpose of this study is to compare the hemodynamic effects of bolus remifentanil versus fentanyl with glycopyrrolate for induction of anesthesia in patients with heart disease. A randomized, double-blinded study. A tertiary-care academic medical center. One hundred patients for coronary artery bypass or valvular surgery. Subjects received either (1) remifentanil, 5 microg/kg, with glycopyrrolate, 0.2 mg, or (2) fentanyl, 20 microg/kg, with 0.2 mg of glycopyrrolate, and both groups also received midazolam, 70 microg/kg, for induction of anesthesia. Heart rate, mean arterial pressure, systemic vascular resistance, and cardiac output were similar between the 2 groups during induction of anesthesia and tracheal intubation. The incidence of adverse events such as bradycardia (remifentanil 10%, fentanyl 10%), hypotension (remifentanil 16%, fentanyl 10%), and ischemia (remifentanil 0%, fentanyl 2%) were also similar. A greater percentage of patients in the remifentanil ...Continue Reading
