AI Article Synopsis

  • The study aimed to compare cardiovascular responses and angiotensin II levels in hypertensive patients during tracheal intubation using either an intubating laryngeal mask airway (ILMA) or a direct laryngoscope (DLS).
  • A total of 120 hypertensive patients were randomly assigned to two groups, and variations in arterial blood pressure and angiotensin II were measured before and after intubation.
  • Results showed that cardiovascular responses and angiotensin II levels were significantly lower in the ILMA group compared to the DLS group, suggesting that ILMA may lead to safer intubation with less cardiovascular risk.

Article Abstract

Objective: To compare the variations of cardiovascular responses and vascular angiotensin II (AngII) in hypertensive patients during tracheal intubation with intubating laryngeal mask airway (ILMA) versus direct laryngoscope (DLS).

Methods: A total of 120 hypertensive patients undergoing abdominal surgery were randomly divided into 2 groups, i.e.intubating laryngeal mask airway (Group I) and direct laryngoscope (Group D).Variations of invasive arterial blood pressure and angiotensin II were compared between two groups before and after intubation.

Results: The variations of cardiovascular responses and vascular angiotensin II (AngII) during tracheal intubation used of ILMA (T4) and DLS (T4) in an instant, tracheal intubation were immediately accomplished in two groups (T5). The variations of group I were significantly lower than those of group D (P < 0.05). And statistical significance existed between two groups.

Conclusion: Tracheal intubation with intubating laryngeal mask airway (ILMA) can significantly reduce violent cardiovascular reactions and avoid cardiovascular accidents.
