Analyzing the Relationship Between Speed Propofol is Given and Low Blood Pressure

Completed · Phase 3

Conditions studied: Hypotension on Induction

In brief

The objective of this study is to evaluate the hemodynamic changes related to Propofol administration rate. We hypothesize that slow administration of IV propofol will have less hemodynamic disturbances and will require less amount of vasoactive medication for BP correction when compared to standard FDA approved administration rate.
