No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The inflammatory properties of propofol are still under debate. Apolipoprotein A-I (Apo A-I) is involved in the inflammatory process. This study was designed to determine whether and how propofol or its solvent modulate Apo A-I and the inflammatory response after surgical stress. The investigators study hypothesis was that propofol might modify the Apo A-I blood levels, and thus, modulate the postoperative inflammatory course.

Conditions

Interventions

DRUG

propofol

Induction with propofol (1.5 to 2mg/kg) and maintenance of anesthesia with propofol 1% (target controlled infusion with concentration levels of 3-5 ug/ml)

DRUG

Intralipid 10%

Induction of anesthesia with thiopental (3-5mg/kg) and maintenance of anesthesia with isoflurane (end-expired concentration = 0.5%-2.0%) as well as the solvent of propofol 1% (Intralipid 10%; corresponding to a target-controlled infusion of propofol with concentration levels of 3-5ug/ml)

DRUG

Saline

Induction of anesthesia with thiopental (3-5mg/kg) and maintenance of anesthesia with isoflurane (end-expired concentration = 0.5%-2.0%)
