The Effect of Propofol Infusion on Total Antioxidant Status During Tourniquet-Induced Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury

June 10, 2016 updated by: derya özkan, Diskapi Teaching and Research Hospital

The Effect of Propofol Infusion on Total Antioxidant Status During Tourniquet-Induced Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury in Total Knee Arthroplasty

The release of tourniquet produces reactive oxygen species which can cause injury. Propofol is chemically similar to phenol-based free radical scavengers.

Plasma total antioxidant capacity is a well-established marker of the overall protective effect of antioxidants in body fluids.The aim of the study is to investigate the effects of propofol on ischemia-reperfusion injury in total knee arthroplasty (TKA).

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Active Comparator: Propofol
Propofol infusion group: Under spinal anesthesia, a continuous intravenous infusion (2mg/kg/h) of propofol will be use during the operation
Propofol :Propofol is an anesthetic agent, has structure similar to that of known such as alfa tocopherol.
Placebo Comparator: Control group
Placebo group: Under spinal anesthesia, a continuous intravenous infusion of volume-equivalent placebo will use during the operation
