Impact of Propofol Reduction in Anesthesia Induction

Summary

Objective: Determine if, by reducing the dose of propofol and increasing the time elapsed between fentanyl and propofol administration, hemodynamic response is improved. Methods: Patients were randomized into time groups (2 and 1 minute) and each subdivided into dose groups (1, 1.5 and 2 mg kg-1) obtaining six time-dose groups. After receiving 2 μg kg-1 of fentanyl, propofol was administered after the predetermined time. Time to hypnosis (BIS\<60) and hemodynamic parameters at pre-induction, pre-intubation and postintubation were registered.
