Abstract
Objective: The aim of this study is to compare the hemodynamic response to intubation with and without oral Ivabradine in patients undergoing laparoscopic surgery.
Methods: This was a prospective, randomized, double-blind study conducted on 60 patients scheduled for laparoscopic surgery under general anesthesia. The patients were randomly divided into two groups: Group A received 5 mg oral Ivabradine one hour prior to surgery, while Group B received a placebo. Hemodynamic parameters, including heart rate (HR) and mean arterial pressure (MAP) were recorded at baseline, after intubation, and at 1, 3, 5, and 10 minutes after intubation.
Results: The HR and MAP increased significantly in both groups after intubation. However, the increases in HR and MAP were significantly lower in Group A than in Group B at all time points after intubation.
Conclusion: Oral Ivabradine given one hour prior to surgery effectively blunts the hemodynamic response to intubation in patients undergoing laparoscopic surgery under general anesthesia. It is a safe and cost-effective alternative to traditional methods of controlling the hemodynamic response to intubation.
