Background And Aims: An exaggerated hemodynamic response to endotracheal intubation is observed in hypertensive patients, and its attenuation proves challenging. The role of oral ivabradine, a unique heart rate-lowering drug with a favorable hemodynamic profile, is not yet studied. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of oral ivabradine on the attenuation of hemodynamic response to endotracheal intubation in hypertensive surgical patients assessed by rate pressure product (RPP), which is a very reliable indicator of myocardial oxygen demand.

Background: Ivabradine is a specific heart rate (HR)-lowering agent which blocks the cardiac pacemaker I channels. It reduces the HR without causing a negative inotropic or lusitropic effect, thus preserving ventricular contractility. The authors hypothesized that its usefulness in lowering HR can be utilized in patients undergoing off-pump coronary artery bypass (OPCAB) surgery.
