The Hypotensive Effect of Propofol: an Observational Study of Hypotension With Anesthetic Induction by Propofol in the General Population Under Standard of Care Anesthesia

Hypotension is a recognized frequent complication of induction of anesthesia. The intent of
this research is to determine the incidence of hypotension in patients receiving anesthetic
induction with propofol. This investigation seeks to examine how normal clinical practice or
a "real world" understanding of the usual response to propofol affects hemodynamics without
isolating or standardizing other variables. The current research concerns hypotension in
normal clinical practice where variability exists. This project aims to gather information
and data in an attempt to form a foundation upon which each of the other variables affecting
blood pressure may be subsequently assessed.


Inclusion Criteria:

- All ASA 1-3 patients who are to receive propofol induction for general anesthesia

Exclusion Criteria:

- Allergy to propofol

- ASA 4 and above
