Lead Sponsor
Post Graduate Institute of Medical Education and Research Chandigarh
Brief Summary

A randomised, prospective, parallel group, multiple arm trial to evaluate and compare the changes in echocardiographic parameters of Left Ventricular Function upon induction of General anaesthesia by three different anaesthetic agents- Propofol, Etomidate and Sevoflurane. This trial has been planned as a thesis/dissertation, required for the degree of DM (Cardiac Anaesthesia) of Post Graduate Institute of Medical Education and Research, Chandigarh.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
To evaluate and compare the effects of anaesthetic induction by Propofol, Etomidate and Sevoflurane on the echocardiographic parameters of Left Ventricular Function (Peak Global Longitudinal Strain, Septal and Lateral Mitral Annular S’) in adult patients undergoing cardiac surgeries.1. Baseline | 2. Post Induction (Upon reaching target BIS of 50) | 3. Post Intubation (Within 1 minute after endotracheal intubation)
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
To evaluate and compare the effects of anaesthetic induction by Propofol, Etomidate and Sevoflurane on the echocardiographic parameters of cardiac preload (LVEDVI), cardiac afterload (Ea), Left ventricular function (LV ejection fraction, Septal and Lateral Mitral Annular ’, E’, A’ velocities, Tei Index, P/V Ratio), Mitral inflow velocities (E velocity, A velocity, E wave deceleration time).1. Baseline
To observe any side effects of the anaesthetic agents usedThroughout during the Induction and Intubation period
To find out correlation between the change in preload and afterload parameters (EDVI, Ea, SVRI) respectively and the change in the systolic function parameters (Peak Global Longitudinal Strain, EF, Tei Index, Septal and Lateral Mitral Annular S’ velocities, P/V ratio) from baseline to that after inductionFrom baseline to after induction
