Introduction
PIH, hypotension
HYPERTENSION, COMPLICATIONS
General anesthesia induction is frequently followed by hypotension, namely post-induction hypotension (PIH), which is reportedly 18–50% [Propofol is the most commonly administered agent for the induction of general anesthesia [Angiotensin axis blockades are widely administered in the surgical population, owing to their use as first-line treatment for hypertension. Adoption of an appropriate hypnotic agent is warranted to minimize hypotension and prevent potential complications in these patients. Therefore, we conducted a randomized controlled trial to compare the incidence of post-induction hypotension induced by remimazolam versus propofol in patients routinely administered angiotensin axis blockades.
