Comparação entre nifedipina por via sublingual e clonidina por via venosa no controle de hipertensão arterial peri-operatória em cirurgias de catarata

Abstract: Intravenous clonidine is more effective than sublingual nifedipine to control perioperative arterial hypertension during cataract extraction. However, the dose of 3 microg.kg-1 may be related to side-effects and treatment should be started with 2 microg.kg-1.

“…However, mean SBP was lower in the clonidine group on the third day. In these patients, the reduction in blood pressure levels could possibly be explained by the resolution of the endothelial lesion and vasospasm following delivery, and also by diuresis of the fluid extravasated to the third space, which would be potentiated by the pharmacokinetics of clonidine and its vascular effect [ 12 ].…”
