About this trial

The purpose of this study is to investigate whether norepinephrine(N), phenylephrine(P) or ephedrine(E) have different effect on cerebral oxygenation in abdominal surgery with propofol or sevoflurane.

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Continual changes in Cerebral Oxygen Saturation

This outcome is measured by near-infrared spectroscopy

Time frame
10 minutes after entering the operating room; when 20% decrease in baseline MAP after both induction of anesthesia and intubation; when MAP rising to the highest point after administration of vasopressors

Secondary outcomes

1

Continual changes in systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP), mean arterial blood pressure (MAP)

This outcome is measured by LiDCO rapidV3 monitoring system

Time frame
10 minutes after entering the operating room; when 20% decrease in baseline MAP after both induction of anesthesia and intubation; when MAP rising to the highest point after administration of vasopressors
2

Continual changes in heart rate (HR)

This outcome is measured by LiDCO rapidV3 monitoring system

Time frame
10 minutes after entering the operating room; when 20% decrease in baseline MAP after both induction of anesthesia and intubation; when MAP rising to the highest point after administration of vasopressors
3

Continual changes in stroke volume (SV)

This outcome is measured by LiDCO rapidV3 monitoring system

Time frame
10 minutes after entering the operating room; when 20% decrease in baseline MAP after both induction of anesthesia and intubation; when MAP rising to the highest point after administration of vasopressors
4

Continual changes in cardiac output (CO)

This outcome is measured by LiDCO rapidV3 monitoring system

Time frame
10 minutes after entering the operating room; when 20% decrease in baseline MAP after both induction of anesthesia and intubation; when MAP rising to the highest point after administration of vasopressors
