Measurement of infraclavicular axillary vein using ultrasonography before anesthesia and predicting decrease in blood pressure after giving general anesthesia

Lead Sponsor

Brief Summary

Induction of anesthesia is associated with risk of hypotension as anesthetic agents have cardiovascular depressant and vasodilatory effects . Ultrasound examination of inferior venacava in patients with spontaneous respiration has been recommended as anon invasive method for estimation of volume status .However IVC assessment has limitations in patients with abdominal distension and tenderness. In this study we intend to measure  the preoperative diameter and collapsibility index of right infraclavicular axillary vein during spontaneous breathing and deep inspiration  and then examine whether these parameters could predict hypotension after induction of general anesthesia
