ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Propofol increases the risk of bradycardia compared with other anesthetics. This paper reports the heart rate response to intravenous atropine during propofol and enflurane anesthesia.METHODS:
Sixty patients undergoing a transabdominal hysterectomy under general anesthesia were randomly assigned to two groups the propofol group and the enflurane group. All the patients received midazolam 2 mg intramuscularly and were then anesthetized with propofol or enflurane. The blood pressure and heart rate were taken at 1 min intervals for 10 min after a bolus injection of atropine 5microgram/kg.RESULTS:
In the enflurane group, the systolic blood pressure and heart rate were increased significantly at 1, 2 and 3 min after the atropine injection (P<0.05). When the two groups were compared, the heart rate in the enflurane group was significantly higher at 1, 2 and 3 min after atropine injection than in the propofol group (P<0.05).CONCLUSIONS:
The heart rate response to intravenous atropine during propofol anesthesia is attenuated compared with enflurane anesthesia.
