The Effect of Propofol Infusion on Total Antioxidant Status During Tourniquet-Induced Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury

Phase 4
Completed
Conditions
Total Knee Arthroplasty
Tourniquet-Induced Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury
Interventions
Drug: Placebo
Registration Number
NCT01638624
Lead Sponsor
Diskapi Teaching and Research Hospital
Brief Summary

The release of tourniquet produces reactive oxygen species which can cause injury. Propofol is chemically similar to phenol-based free radical scavengers.

Plasma total antioxidant capacity is a well-established marker of the overall protective effect of antioxidants in body fluids.The aim of the study is to investigate the effects of propofol on ischemia-reperfusion injury in total knee arthroplasty (TKA).
