Higher-dose fentanyl may aid haemodynamic stability in CABG; leaves open superiority over morphine or outcome impact in RCTs.
Does fentanyl compared to morphine improve haemodynamic stability in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass surgery?
In patients undergoing coronary artery bypass surgery, a larger dose of fentanyl (25 mcg/kg) provides better haemodynamic stability compared to lower doses or morphine, though supplementary agents are often needed.
