Atenolol vs metoprolol for low blood pressure during nasal surgery
Treatments studied
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial compares two commonly used blood-pressure medicines—atenolol and metoprolol—to see which one works best for keeping blood pressure safely low during nasal surgeries. It may help patients have more stable anesthesia while reducing side effects from blood pressure changes.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 21 and 50 years old
- Your overall health status for anesthesia is ASA level I or II (not more serious)
- You are not pregnant
- You are not breastfeeding
- You do not have asthma, COPD, or other major breathing disease

This trial tests if adding a second medicine, ketamine, to dexmedetomidine helps control blood pressure better during ear or nose surgery. It may lead to safer and smoother anesthesia for patients needing controlled low blood pressure.
This trial tests two different medicines (norepinephrine and phenylephrine) given as an infusion to prevent low blood pressure after spinal anesthesia for hip surgery. It may help older adults undergoing planned hip replacement or repair.
This study compares two medicines used during nasal surgery to keep blood pressure stable and reduce bleeding. One is a short-acting painkiller (remifentanil), and the other is a blood pressure-lowering drug (nicardipine). If you are having planned nasal surgery eliminated for participation, you might be eligible.
This trial tests different doses of two medicines, metoprolol and sufentanil, given before placing a breathing tube during anesthesia to keep your heart rate and blood pressure stable. It aims to find the best balance to reduce stress on your body during intubation.
This trial tests two sedative medicines to see which one controls blood pressure better during sinus surgery, which may reduce bleeding and improve the surgery's outcome.
This trial tests whether noradrenaline is better than standard care for preventing dangerously low blood pressure during surgery. If you are having non-cardiac surgery that lasts at least an hour and are expected to stay overnight, this study may be for you.
