A STUDY OF HAEMODYNAMIC RESPONSE TO LARYNGOSCOPY AND ENDOTRACHEAL INTUBATION WHEN USING ESMOLOL:

Dr Nishchitha V Shetty

Abstract


Esmolol is an ultra-short acting, β1 cardio selective, β blocking agent with a short half-life (9min). This agent has been used to reduce the increase in heart rate and blood pressure in response to tracheal intubation, thereby reducing the myocardial oxygen demand.(6). This study makes an effort to find the haemodynamic response to laryngoscope and endotracheal intubation using Esmolol

Keywords


Haemodynamic, Laryngoscope, Endotracheal Intubation, Esmolol.
