Intervention / Comparator Agent  
Type  Name  Details 
Comparator Agent  Manual boluses of propofol  In this group patients will receive an initial loading dose of 1mg/kg of propofol with 20 to 40mg every 10 seconds and then according to the patients response a maximum dose of 1.7mg/kg will be given. End points of propofol induction will be same as in TCI group. BIS will be maintained between 40 to 60 for adequate depth of anesthesia. Based on clinical requirement, any additional dose given will be noted. 
Intervention  Target controlled infusion(TCI)  This group patients will be given with propofol with initial effect site concentration of 2.5mcg/ml using schnider pharmacokinetic model, later 0.5mcg/ml will be titrated every 2 minutes. End points of propofol induction taken are loss of verbal response, eyelash reflex, no movement when mask will keep for ventillation with BIS maintaining between 40 to 60. If it goes less than 40 for more than or equal to 2 minutes, then effect site concentration will be reduced by 0.5mcg/ml. After intubation propofol infusion will be stopped.

Brief Summary   Post induction hypotension is most encountered during anesthesia and surgery. Especially, Elderly population are more prone to hemodynamic instability. Hypotension is related to many adverse outcomes, in severe hypotension, perfusion to organs will be compromised which may increase post operative morbidity and mortality. Propofol is one such common drug that is widely used as IV induction agent and can cause hypotension. Hypotension also relate to carotid blood flows which if decrease, hampers cerebral blood flow. Induction with Target controlled infusion(TCI) pump is known to provide better hemodynamic stability than manual boluses, which is a regular practice. To the best of our knowledge, comparison of corrected carotid flows using ultrasonography after induction with propofol using Target controlled infusion(TCI) versus manual boluses, has not been studied yet. So, in this study we will compare corrected carotid flows after induction from the baseline in TCI and manual boluses group.
