MUNOZ, Luis A et al. Comparison of the pharmacodynamic profiles of three molecules of remifentanil in terms of hemodynamic response to laryngoscopy and tracheal intubation maneuvers. Rev. colomb. anestesiol. [online]. 2015, vol.43, n.3, pp.186-193. ISSN 0120-3347.

Introduction: Several remifentanil products are commercialized in Colombia though they have never been compared in a clinical setting. Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate the pharmacodynamic profile of the branded remifentanil molecule (group O: Glaxo SmithKline Manufacturing S.P.A.) and two unbranded molecules (group A: Laboratorios Chalver de Colombia S.A. and group B: Instituto Biológico Contemporáneo, Argentina) registered in Colombia. Methods: We carried out a double-blind, randomized, controlled trial. The branded molecule of remifentanil (group O, n = 29) was compared with the two unbranded molecules (group A, n = 29; group B, n = 32) during anesthetic induction and tracheal intubation in adult patients ASA I without predictors for difficult airway. The target controlled infusion (TCI) doses evaluated were 6, 8 and 10ng/ml with the Minto model. Induction was complemented with propofol 5 mcg/ml (TCI) with the Schneider model and rocuronium 0.6 mg/kg. The primary outcome was the difference between preintubation (TCI equilirium) and postintubation (maximum measurement within 5 min) mean arterial pressure and heart rate. Results: A similar pharmacodynamic profile was observed in all of the studied remifentanil molecules. The differences in the change in heart rate were 1.27 (95% CI -3.11;5.67) with molecule A and 1.40 (95% CI -2.65;5.46) with molecule B compared to molecule O (beats/min). The differences in the change in mean arterial pressure were 1 (95% CI -4.81;6.81) with molecule A and 1.82 (95% CI -4.08;7.74) with molecule B compared to molecule O (mmHg). There was one case of arterial hypotension in each group. Conclusion: The results suggest that, from a pharmacodynamic point of view, branded and unbranded remifentanil molecules are similar for laryngoscopy/intubation with TCI doses 6, 8 and 10ng/ml.
