comparing systolic and diastolic blood pressure changes and heartbeat rate following administration of anesthetics containing epinephrine and felypressin

complex mechanisms have been known for keeping blood pressure in normal level. in fact, these mechanisms have inter-related functions and can be dysregulated by both internal and external stimuli while cardiovascular system functions to minimize these changes. vasoconstrictors can cause clinical and hemodynamical changes as 1-2 cartridges of epinephrine containing lidocaine can has no considerable effects in a normal individual ( unless administered iv) but 3 cartridges can bring about some clinical symptoms, according to a number of investigations. in current study, epinephrine’s effect on heartbeat rate was found more potent than felypressin which is considered as a disadvantage. on the other hand, epinephrine acts on arteries and can cause less bleeding, less drug toxicity and deeper and longer anesthesia. therefore, it is preferred to felypressin due to its better action. it should be noted that the changes resulted by epinephrine and felypressin are of no significant importance in healthy individuals.
