Purpose: Controlled hypotension (CH) is a well-established technique to decrease blood loss and improve surgical visibility. Although nitroprusside and remifentanil have been safely and effectively used for this purpose, the hemodynamic changes that occur during CH are unclear. This study compared the effects of nitroprusside and remifentanil on hemodynamics using a noninvasive cardiac output monitor (Cheetah NICOM(®); Cheetah Medical Inc., Maidenhead, Berkshire, UK) for endoscopic sinus surgery (ESS).
Methods: Twenty-eight adult patients scheduled for ESS were randomly assigned to the nitroprusside group (n = 14) or remifentanil group (n = 14). After anesthesia induction, hypotension was induced with continuous infusion of nitroprusside or remifentanil at a target mean arterial blood pressure (MAP) of 60-70 mmHg. Cardiac index (CI), stroke volume index (SVI) and total peripheral resistance index (TPRI) were measured at 10-min intervals.
Results: The heart rate was higher and SVI was lower in the nitroprusside group than in the remifentanil group during CH. There were no significant differences in MAP, CI or TPRI between the two groups. Both nitroprusside and remifentanil reduced MAP and TPRI during CH compared with baseline values. However, there was no significant change in CI.
Conclusions: Both nitroprusside and remifentanil were effective to induce CH and maintain CI during CH.

To evaluate the effect on bleeding volume and postoperative recovery of regional cerebral oxygen saturation (rSO(2)) guides controlled hypotension in elderly patients with hypertension undergoing spinal surgery. One hundred and twenty elderly patients who underwent spinal surgery in the department of anesthesiology of Qingdao Municipal Hospital and the Affiliated Hospital of Qingdao University from January 2017 to December 2019 were selected and divided into 2 groups according to the random number table method (60): rSO(2) guides the controlled hypotension group (group A) and control group (group C). Both groups were performed with endotracheal intubation for general anesthesia, maintain anesthesia with sevoflurane and remifentanil, rSO(2) were monitored throughout the procedure.

Phaeochromocytoma is a catecholamine-secreting vascular tumour that is derived from chromaffin cell. Lethal cardiovascular complications, such as serious hypertension, myocardial infarction and aortic dissection, may occur because of uncontrolled catecholamine release. Each stage of anaesthesia management has vital importance because of this destructive catecholamine secretion that may occur during induction, perioperative stage and surgical manipulation.

Background: Transpulmonary thermodilution (TPTDCO ) and calibrated pulse contour analysis (PCACO ) are alternatives to pulmonary artery thermodilution cardiac output (PATDCO ) measurement.
Hypothesis: Ten mL of ice-cold thermal indicator (TI10 ) would improve the agreement and trending ability between TPTDCO and PATDCO compared to 5 mL of indicator (TI5 ) (Phase-1). The agreement and TA between PCACO and PATDCO would be poor during changes in systemic vascular resistance (SVR) (Phase-2).

An operation was planned for a female patient aged 59 for intra-abdominal mass. The patient was using nebivolol for hypertension. Blood pressure (BP) of the patient was raised to 200/130 mmHg during anesthesia induction.
