Official Title: Arterial Elastance: A Predictor of Hypotension Due to Anesthesia Induction
Brief Summary:
Hypotension is very common during and after anesthesia induction. A prolonged fasting period, a patient's underlying comorbidities, a sympathetic blockade by anesthetic agents, vasodilation, a reduction in preload, and cardiac contractility can cause post-induction hypotension.1,2 The relationship of even short-term hypotension with myocardial damage, renal injury, and stroke has been shown in many studies; therefore, it is very important to provide stable anesthesia induction.3 In current anesthesia practice, we…
