Abstract
Background: While general anesthesia has been widely used in endovascular thrombectomy for acute ischemic stroke (AIS), the optimal anesthesia medication for hemodynamic management remains unclear.
Purpose: To compare the effects of remimazolam and propofol on endovascular thrombectomy for AIS.
Methods: This study is a single-center, double-blind and randomized controlled trial. Eligible patients will be randomly allocated into the remimazolam group and propofol group. Remimazolam and propofol will be administered to induce and maintain anesthesia respectively. The primary outcome is the incidence of intraoperative hypotension. The secondary outcomes include frequency of hypotension, the largest difference value of mean arterial pressure (MAP), dosage of vasopressors, extubation time, operation time, modified thrombolysis in cerebral infarction (mTICI) level, National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score and modified Rankin scale (mRS) score.
Conclusion: This study evaluates the influences of remimazolam versus propofol on endovascular therapy for AIS patients. Results of this study are expected to provide more evidence of the choice of anesthetics in this kind of operation.
Trial registration: This study has been registered at the Chinese Clinical Trial Registry (ChiCTR2300076880).
期刊介绍:
An international, peer-reviewed journal of therapeutics and risk management, focusing on concise rapid reporting of clinical studies on the processes involved in the maintenance of vascular health; the monitoring, prevention, and treatment of vascular disease and its sequelae; and the involvement of metabolic disorders, particularly diabetes. In addition, the journal will also seek to define drug usage in terms of ultimate uptake and acceptance by the patient and healthcare professional.
