BACKGROUND: Zatebradine is a new specific bradycardiac agent that selectively slows the depolarization in the pacemaker cells of the sinoatrial node. The purpose of our investigation was to determine whether the tachycardia induced by dobutamine can be attenuated by the administration of zatebradine. The results were compared with those produced by propranolol, which is used in the treatment of sinus tachycardia. METHODS: Twelve pigs were anesthetized with sodium pentobarbital, intubated, and ventilated. After baseline hemodynamic measurements were obtained, dobutamine was administered until the heart rate reached 25% above baseline. Animals were randomized to one of two groups. Group I received zatebradine, 0.5 mg/kg i.v., and Group II received propranolol, 0.5 mg/kg i.v. RESULTS: Dobutamine 10 micrograms.kg-1.min-1 increased the heart rate (FIR) by 25%, and increased mean arterial blood pressure (MAP) left ventricular (LV) dp/dt, and cardiac output (CO) (P < 0.05). Zatebradine decreased the HR to baseline (P < 0.05) without affecting left ventricular systolic pressure (LVSP), left ventricular end diastolic pressure (LVEDP), LV dP/dt, or CO. Stroke volume (SV) increased significantly (P < 0.05). Propranolol also reduced HR to baseline, but decreased LV dP/dt, LVSP, CO, and SV (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION: Zatebradine effectively attenuates the tachycardia caused by dobutamine in anesthetized pigs, without reducing cardiac performance.  相似文献

A 68-year-old man was scheduled for subtotal gastrectomy. He had bronchial asthma, but had no history of ischemic heart disease and showed normal ECG. He stopped taking antiasthmatic drugs after the admission. His operation had been postponed for 10 days for an attack of bronchial asthma. The asthmatic attack was suppressed by infusing aminophilline. Before the operation, general anesthesia combined with epidural anesthesia (mepivacaine; 60 mg) was induced. At the time of the insertion of a stomach tube, bradycardia (48 bpm) and hypotension (48/30 mmHg) with an elevation of ST-segment in ECG were observed. We administrated 10 mg of isosorbide dinitrate followed by continuous intravenous injection (0.5 mg.kg-1.min-1) of dopamine (6 mg.kg-1.min-1). After 20 minutes, increases of both blood pressure (82/49 mmHg) and heart rate (89 bpm) were achieved and ST-segment in ECG was reversed. The operation was postponed again. Although the patient had refused to take coronary angiogram, the episode was explained by coronary artery spasm. Pathogenesis of the spasm was likely to be 1) elevation of endogenous cathecolamine due to asthma, 2) inhibition of cardiac sympathetic system by epidural anesthesia and 3) stimulation of vagal system by the insertion of a stomach tube.  相似文献

Right ventricular (RV) function was investigated in nine fetal lambs (125-130 days gestation) that were instrumented with pulmonary artery electromagnetic flow sensors and vascular catheters. Control arterial CO2 and O2 tension, pH, and hematocrit values were 46.1 +/- 1.6 (SD) Torr, 20.6 +/- 1.8 Torr, 7.39 +/- 0.02, and 31 +/- 5.3%, respectively. Control values for right ventricular output (247 +/- 75 ml X min-1 X kg-1), stroke volume (SV, 1.5 +/- 0.4 ml X kg-1), right atrial pressure (3.7 +/- 1.2 mmHg), heart rate (166 +/- 18 beats X min-1), and arterial pressure (AP, 43 +/- 4 mmHg) were unchanged by administration of atropine and propranolol. Withdrawal and infusion of fetal blood with or without concomitant infusion of nitroprusside or phenylephrine produced RV function curves at low, normal, and high arterial pressures. All function curves had a steep ascending limb and a plateau. The breakpoint joining the limbs of the control curve was right atrial pressure 3.4 +/- 1.2 mmHg and SV 1.5 +/- 0.4 ml X kg-1. Increased AP shifted the breakpoint downward. Linear regression of SV on AP from 15 to 95 mmHg at right atrial pressure greater than breakpoint was SV = -0.016 ml X kg-1 mmHg-1 X AP + 2.25 ml X kg-1.  相似文献

Patients with suppressed systemic circulation under general anesthesia received a 20-minute continuous infusion of toborinone at a rate of 5, 10, or 15 micrograms.kg-1.min-1, and the efficacy and safety of the drug were evaluated. Toborinone increased cardiac index (CI) and stroke volume index (SVI) dose-dependently, with significant increases at 10 and 15 micrograms.kg-1.min-1. An increase in CI was observed from 10 minutes after the start of infusion, with a return to the baseline value at 20-30 minutes after the completion of infusion. Toborinone did not affect heart rate at any dose tested, but the drug tended to decrease mean pulmonary arterial pressure, pulmonary capillary wedge pressure, and right atrial pressure. Mean arterial blood pressure tended to decrease after the start of infusion at all doses tested, and was significantly decreased at 20 minutes after the start of infusion at 10 and 15 micrograms.kg-1.min-1. Systemic vascular resistance and pulmonary vascular resistance decreased at all doses tested. T-wave amplitude on electrocardiaogram (ECG) and oxygen partial pressure in arterial blood decreased at 10 and 15 micrograms.kg-1.min-1. Toborinone increases cardiac output and decreases pre-load and after-load with no effects on heart rate, and, therefore, is thought to be a positive inotropic agent useful in the treatment of circulatory insufficiency. Due care should be exercised to monitor blood pressure, ECG, and arterial blood gas parameters of the patients. The effects of toborinone need to be further investigated in patients with complicated cardiac diseases under general anesthesia and in patients with circulatory insufficiency after surgery, including patients following extracorporeal circulation.  相似文献

BACKGROUND: A rapid increase in isoflurane concentration can induce tachycardia and hypertension and increase plasma catecholamine concentrations. To investigate a possible mechanism, we measured hemodynamic responses to isoflurane administered via mask; we also administered clonidine for premedication, lidocaine topically to the nasal mucosa, or lidocaine intravenously to evaluate the effect of these drugs on the hemodynamic responses. METHODS: Forty ASA physical status 1 patients (aged 20-30 yr) scheduled for elective oral surgery participated in the study. Thirty patients were randomly allocated to one of three groups: a control group, a group receiving 3-4 micrograms.kg-1 of oral clonidine for premedication, and a group receiving 2 ml of 4% lidocaine spray to the nasal mucosa. Ten patients were assigned nonrandomly to a group receiving intravenous lidocaine continuously (0.4 mg.kg-1 bolus followed by 30 micrograms.kg-1.min-1) after the initial randomized experiments were done to test whether systemic lidocaine blunts the responses to inhaled isoflurane. Anesthesia was induced with thiamylal, after which inhalation of 1% isoflurane in 100% oxygen via mask was begun. The inspired concentration of isoflurane was increased by 1% every 5 min to a maximum of 4%. During normocapnia and without surgical stimulation, heart rate and systolic blood pressure were measured every minute for 20 min before and during isoflurane inhalation. Plasma catecholamine concentrations were measured before and at each isoflurane concentration. RESULTS: In the control and intravenous lidocaine groups, an increase in isoflurane concentration from 2% to 3% significantly increased systolic blood pressure (peak changes of 16 +/- 5 and 15 +/- 6 mmHg, respectively) and heart rate (peak changes of 23 +/- 3 and 13 +/- 4 beats.min-1, respectively). A change in concentration to 4%, however, did not significantly alter hemodynamics. Blood pressure and heart rate responses to a change to 3% isoflurane were significantly blunted in the groups receiving clonidine (peak changes of 4 +/- 4 mmHg and 8 +/- 3 beats.min-1, respectively) or nasal lidocaine (peak changes of 2 +/- 1 mmHg and 4 +/- 2 beats.min-1, respectively) compared with the control group. In all groups, plasma epinephrine and norepinephrine concentrations increased after administration of 2% and 1% isoflurane, respectively. Plasma lidocaine concentrations were 0.3-1.3 micrograms.kg-1 in the nasal lidocaine group and 0.6-1.5 micrograms.kg-1 in the intravenous lidocaine group. CONCLUSIONS: Stepwise increases in isoflurane concentration elicited hypertension and tachycardia as well as increments in plasma catecholamine concentrations during mask anesthesia. Nasal administration of lidocaine and clonidine premedication significantly blunted the circulatory responses to isoflurane. Intravenous lidocaine did not significantly weaken the responses to changes in isoflurane concentration.  相似文献

BACKGROUND: Global left ventricular dysfunction after successful resuscitation is well documented and appears to be a major contributing factor in limiting long-term survival after initial recovery from out-of-hospital sudden cardiac death. Treatment of such postresuscitation myocardial dysfunction has not been examined previously. METHODS AND RESULTS: Systolic and diastolic parameters of left ventricular function were measured in 27 swine before and after successful resuscitation from prolonged ventricular fibrillation cardiac arrest. Dobutamine infusions (10 micrograms.kg-1.min-1 in 14 animals or 5 micrograms.kg-1.min-1 in 5 animals) begun 15 minutes after resuscitation were compared with controls receiving no treatment (8 animals). The marked deterioration in systolic and diastolic left ventricular function seen in the control group after resuscitation was ameliorated in the dobutamine-treated animals. Left ventricular ejection fraction fell from a prearrest 58 +/- 3% to 25 +/- 3% at 5 hours after resuscitation in the control group but remained unchanged in the dobutamine (10 micrograms.kg-1.min-1) group (52 +/- 1% prearrest and 55 +/- 3% at 5 hours after resuscitation). Measurement of the constant of isovolumic relaxation of the left ventricle (tau) demonstrated a similar benefit of the dobutamine infusion for overcoming postresuscitation diastolic dysfunction. The tau rose in the controls from 28 +/- 1 milliseconds (ms) prearrest to 41 +/- 3 ms at 5 hours after resuscitation whereas it remained constant in the dobutamine-treated animals (31 +/- 1 ms prearrest and 31 +/- 5 ms at 5 hours after resuscitation). CONCLUSIONS: Dobutamine begun within 15 minutes of successful resuscitation can successfully overcome the global systolic and diastolic left ventricular dysfunction resulting from prolonged cardiac arrest and cardiopulmonary resuscitation.  相似文献

AIM: To study the effects of panaxadiol saponins (PDS) on burn rat heart functions and try to find its mechanisms. METHODS: A 35% skin-full-thickness burn was produced by using napalm in Wistar rats. PDS 30 mg kg-1 was injected i.p. to rats immediately after burn and repeated 2 h before examination. Using the isolated perfused working heart and biochemistry methods, heart rate (HR), cardiac output (CO), coronary flow (CF), left ventricular pressure (LVP), aortic pressure (AP), +/- dp/dtmax, and content of malondialdehyde (MDA), activity of superoxide dismutase (SOD) in ventricular myocardium homogenate were examined 8 h after burn. RESULTS: After burn, HR, CO, CF, LVP, AP, +dp/dtmax, -dp/dtmax, and SOD activity decreased from 206 bpm, 92 mL min-1 g-1, 26 mL min-1 g-1, 7 kPa, 5.9 kPa, 149 kPa s-1, 73 kPa s-1, 2.9 NU/mg protein to 162 bpm, 72 mL min-1 g-1, 14 mL min-1 g-1, 4 kPa, 2.2 kPa, 77 kPa s-1, 44 kPa s-1, 1.7 NU/mg protein, respectively, and MDA content raised from 0.77 nmol/mg protein to 1.35 nmol/mg protein (P all < 0.05). But in PDS-treated group, above decreased or increased dates restored to 202 bpm, 91 mL min-1 g-1, 25 mL min-1 g-1, 6 kPa, 4.1 kPa, 112 kPa s-1, 62 kPa s-1, 2.8 NU/mg protein, 0.91 nmol/mg protein, respectively (P all < 0.05 vs burn). CONCLUSION: PDS exerts definite protective effects on the cardiac functions after burn injury possibly through its enhancement of SOD activity and the reduction of both the levels of free radicals and lipid peroxides (LPO) of the myocardium.  相似文献

Loprinone hydrochloride (Lop), a phosphodiesterase fraction III inhibitor and positive inotrope, was recently released in Japan. We evaluated its dose-related effects on hemodynamics and oxygenation as as well as on plasma levels of Lop in ten patients after cardiac surgery. Immediately after admission to the intensive care unit, baseline hemodynamics and arterial blood gas data were obtained; patients with inotropic support, were given 0.1, 0.2, 0.3 microgram.kg-1.min-1.lop over 1 hour incrementally, and additional data were obtained. CI increased significantly from baseline (2.1 +/- 0.3 l.min-1.m-2) to 3.2 +/- 0.8 at 0.3 microgram.kg-1.min-1. Systemic vascular resistance decreased significantly from baseline (2853 +/- 439 dynes.sec.cm-5.m-2) to 1554 +/- 440 at 0.3 micrograms. kg-1.min-1, and mean arterial pressure also decreased significantly from baseline. There were no significant changes in heart rate (HR), central venous pressure (CVP), pulmonary artery occlusion pressure (PAOP), or PaO2.FIO2(-1) in patients over the period evaluated. Plasma levels of Lop rapidly increased to 27.8 ng.ml-1 (effective level; 20 ng.ml-1) at 0.3 microgram.kg-1.min-1. In this study, Lop was shown to effectively increase CI in patients after cardiac surgery with no significant changes in HR, CVP, PAOP or PaO2/FIO2. Thus, Lop has a beneficial effect in the treatment of patients with low cardiac output immediately after cardiac surgery.  相似文献

BACKGROUND: When given as an intravenous bolus for induction of anesthesia, propofol can decrease postintubation hypertension but can also create moderate to severe postinduction, preintubation hypotension. The addition of fentanyl usually decreases the postintubation hypertension but can increase the propofol-induced preintubation hypotension. The goal of the study was to determine the relation between propofol and fentanyl doses and the hemodynamic changes post-induction, preintubation and postintubation. METHODS: Twelve groups of 10 patients, ASA physical status 1 or 2, first received fentanyl 0, 2, or 4 micrograms.kg-1 and then 5 min later received propofol 2.0, 2.5, 3.0, or 3.5 mg.kg-1 as an intravenous bolus for induction of anesthesia. Arterial blood pressure was continuously monitored. The trachea was intubated 4 min after propofol administration. RESULTS: The mean decrease in systolic blood pressure after propofol was 28 mmHg when no fentanyl was given, 53 mmHg after 2 microgram.kg-1 of fentanyl (P < 0.05 vs. no fentanyl), and 50 mmHg after 4 micrograms.kg-1 (P < 0.05 vs. no fentanyl; no statistically significant difference 4 vs. 2 micrograms.kg-1). There was no statistically significant difference in hemodynamic response to intubation relative to propofol dose. Hemodynamic response to intubation was decreased by the administration of fentanyl; the mean increase of systolic blood pressure after intubation was 65 mmHg from preintubation value without fentanyl, 50 mmHg after 2 micrograms.kg-1, and 37 mmHg after 4 micrograms.kg-1 (P < 0.05 for 2 and 4 micrograms.kg-1 vs. no fentanyl and for 4 vs. 2 micrograms.kg-1). Hemodynamic changes postintubation were not statistically different with increasing doses of propofol. CONCLUSIONS: Hemodynamic changes after induction with propofol or propofol/fentanyl, pre- or postintubation, are not modified when the propofol dose is increased from 2 to 3.5 mg.kg-1. Maximal hypotension preintubation occurs with a fentanyl dose of 2 micrograms.kg-1, whereas the magnitude of postintubation hypertension is significantly decreased with an increase in the fentanyl dose to 4 micrograms.kg-1.  相似文献

The effects of adenosine and sodium nitroprusside (SNP) on central hemodynamics and myocardial blood flow and metabolism were investigated postoperatively after elective coronary artery bypass (CABG) surgery in ten sedated and mechanically ventilated patients in the intensive care unit. During three consecutive 15-min periods, SNP (0.8 +/- 0.1 micrograms.kg-1 x min-1), adenosine (88.9 +/- 13.3 micrograms.kg-1 x min-1), and then again SNP (0.7 +/- 0.1 micrograms.kg-1 x min-1) were infused to control postoperative hypertension at a mean arterial pressure of approximately 80 mm Hg. Systemic and pulmonary hemodynamics and global (coronary sinus flow, CSF) as well as regional (great cardiac vein flow, GCVF) myocardial blood flow and metabolic variables were measured. During adenosine infusion, in comparison to SNP, heart rate was unchanged, stroke volume index and cardiac index increased (24% and 32%, respectively), and the systemic vascular resistance index decreased (-26%). Mean pulmonary arterial pressure (24%) as well as pulmonary capillary wedge pressure (27%) and central venous pressure (18%) were higher with adenosine compared to SNP. Adenosine also increased CSF and GCVF (108% and 103%, respectively) without altering the CSF/GCVF flow ratio compared to SNP. Furthermore, adenosine increased the coronary oxygen content (51%) and decreased the arterio-great cardiac vein oxygen content difference (-48%) without changing regional myocardial oxygen consumption, indicating a more pronounced hyperkinetic myocardial circulation compared to SNP. In addition, adenosine infusion decreased arterial PO2 (-11%) and increased the intrapulmonary shunt fraction (57%). The PR interval time of the electrocardiogram was prolonged (12%) and the ST segment was more depressed during adenosine infusion compared to SNP.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)  相似文献

1. The effects of FR139317 (ETA antagonist) or PD145065 (non-selective ETA/ETB antagonist) on endothelin-1 (ET-1)-induced changes in blood pressure and inhibition of ex vivo platelet aggregation were investigated in the anaesthetized rabbit. 2. ET-1 (1 nmol kg-1, i.a. bolus) caused a sustained increase in mean arterial pressure (MAP) (peak increase 47 +/- 5 mmHg, n = 8). Intravenous infusion of FR139317 at 0.2 (n = 4) or 0.6 mg kg-1 min-1 (n = 4) inhibited the ET-1 pressor response by 83 or 89%, respectively. Infusion of PD145065 at 0.2 (n = 4) or 0.6 mg kg-1 min-1 (n = 4) inhibited the ET-1-induced increase in MAP by 79 or 75%, respectively. 3. The transient depressor response (-16 +/- 3 mmHg) which preceded the rise in blood pressure induced by ET-1 (1 nmol kg-1, i.a., n = 8) was enhanced by an intravenous infusion of FR139317 (0.6 mg kg-1 min-1) to -35 +/- 5 mmHg (P < 0.05, n = 4). This enhancement was abolished by indomethacin (5 mg kg-1, i.v.) pretreatment (-17 +/- 1 mmHg, n = 4). PD145065 (0.2 mg kg-1 min-1, i.v.) attenuated the ET-1-induced fall in blood pressure to -9 +/- 1 mmHg (n = 4), while a higher dose of this antagonist (0.6 mg kg-1 min-1, i.v.) completely abolished the ET-1-mediated depressor response. 4. ET-1 (1 nmol kg-1, n = 8) inhibited ex vivo platelet aggregation by 96% at 5 min after injection of the peptide. FR139317 (0.2 or 0.6 mg kg-1 min-1, i.v.) or PD145065 (0.2mg kg-1 min-1, i.v.) did not affect the inhibition of ex vivo platelet aggregation in response to ET-1. In contrast, intravenous infusion of PD145065 (0.6 mg kg-1 min-1) abolished the anti-aggregatory effects of ET-1.5. Thus, FR139317 inhibits the pressor, but not the depressor actions of ET-1 and has no effect on the ET-l-induced inhibition of ex vivo platelet aggregation. In contrast, PD145065 antagonizes the pressor and depressor responses to ET-1 and abolishes the anti-aggregatory effects of the peptide.6. These results strongly suggest that ET-1-induced vasoconstriction in the anaesthetized rabbit is primarily mediated via the ETA receptor while the depressor and antiaggregatory actions of ET-1 are due to activation of the ETB receptor.  相似文献

OBJECTIVES: To clarify the prevalence and mechanism of supraventricular tachycardia in patients with right atrial isomerism. BACKGROUND: Paired SA and dual atrioventricular (AV) nodes have been described in patients with right atrial isomerism. However, the clinical significance remains unclear. METHODS: From 1987 to 1996, a total of 101 patients (61 male, 40 female) and four fetuses were identified with right atrial isomerism. The diagnosis of supraventricular tachycardia exclude the tachycardia with prolonged QRS duration or AV dissociation, and primary atrial tachycardia. RESULTS: The median follow-up duration was 38 months (range 0.2-270 months). Supraventricular tachycardia was documented in 25 patients (24.8%) and one fetus (25%) (onset age ranged from prenatal to 14 years old; median 4 years old). Actuarial Kaplan-Meier analysis revealed that the probability of being free from tachycardia was 67% and 50% at 6 and 10 years of age, respectively. These tachycardias could be converted by vagal maneuvers in one, verapamil in seven, propranolol in four, digoxin in two, procainamide in one, and rapid pacing in five. Spontaneous conversion was noted in six (including the fetus). Seven cases had received electrophysiological studies. Reciprocating AV tachycardia could be induced in five and echo beats in one. The tachycardia in three patients was documented as incorporating a posterior AV node (antegrade) and an anterior or a lateral AV node (retrograde). Two of them received radiofrequency ablation. Successful ablation in both was obtained by delivering energy during tachycardia, aimed at the earliest retrograde atrial activity and accompanied by junctional ectopic rhythm. The patient with echo beats developed tachycardia soon after operation. CONCLUSIONS: Supraventricular tachycardia is common in patients with right atrial isomerism and can occur during the prenatal stage. Drugs to slow conduction through the AV node may help to terminate the tachycardia. Radiofrequency ablation is a safe and effective treatment alternative to eliminate tachycardia.  相似文献

In atrial fibrillation, exercise capacity is often reduced. This is usually ascribed to a decreased cardiac output as compared with sinus rhythm. Very few studies, however, have focused on changes in the peripheral blood flow during atrial fibrillation as a potential mechanism for exercise limitation. The aim of the present study was to determine the effect of conversion of atrial fibrillation to sinus rhythm on peripheral blood flow. Calf blood flow, using an electrocardiogram-triggered venous occlusion plethysmograph, and peak oxygen consumption (peak VO2), using treadmill exercise testing, were studied in 28 patients with chronic atrial fibrillation eligible for electrical cardioversion. Measurements were performed before cardioversion, and repeated 1 day and 1 month thereafter. Calf blood flow at rest, maximal calf blood flow, and minimal calf vascular resistance during the hyperaemic response immediately following 700 J of calf exercise were determined plethysmographically. One day and 1 month after cardioversion, 23 and 14 patients were still in sinus rhythm, respectively. In patients who still had sinus rhythm after 1 month, maximal calf blood flow increased from 33.7 +/- 12 to 40.0 +/- 13 ml. 100 ml-1.min-1 (P < 0.01) and minimal calf vascular resistance fell from 3.2 +/- 0.9 to 2.7 +/- 0.7 mmHg. ml-1. 100 ml-1. min-1 (P < 0.01); peak VO2 increased from 21.3 +/- 4 to 24.2 +/- 5 ml. min-1. kg-1 (P < 0.001). Calf blood flow at rest did not improve. In contrast, no significant changes in maximal calf blood flow, minimal calf vascular resistance and peak VO2 occurred in patients who had atrial fibrillation 1 month after cardioversion. A significant correlation was found between changes in maximal calf blood flow and peak VO2 1 month after cardioversion (r = 0.53, P < 0.01). One day after cardioversion, no changes in calf blood flow or peak VO2 were found, either in patients with sinus rhythm or atrial fibrillation. In conclusion, transition from chronic atrial fibrillation to sinus rhythm is associated with a (delayed) improvement in maximal calf blood flow, minimal calf vascular resistance, and peak VO2. Our findings suggest that increase in vasodilatory reserve capacity may contribute to the improvement of exercise capacity after cardioversion of atrial fibrillation.  相似文献

BACKGROUND: Mechanical ventilation with positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) can impair renal hemodynamics. Fenoldopam, a dopamine receptor agonist, has been shown, in animal experiments, to improve renal perfusion. The purpose of the current study was to examine the effects of this agent on altered renal hemodynamics secondary to positive pressure ventilation. METHODS: Twelve patients requiring mechanical ventilation of their lungs and PEEP for the treatment of hypoxemia after multiple trauma or visceral surgery were studied. Hemodynamic variables, renal vascular resistance, urine flow, creatinine, inulin and PAH clearance, and excretion of sodium and potassium (NaE and KE) were measured before and after introduction of a level of PEEP high enough to decrease urine flow rate by 25% or more, and after administration of intravenous fenoldopam. RESULTS: No hemodynamic effect resulted from 0.1 microgram.kg-1.min-1, but 0.2 micrograms.kg-1.min-1 fenoldopam decreased both diastolic and mean arterial blood pressure from 66 +/- 37 (mean +/- SEM) to 57 +/- 21 mmHg, and from 83 +/- 3 to 74 +/- 4 mmHg, respectively. Renal vascular resistance was reduced from 54 +/- 12 to 19 +/- 5 dynes.s.cm-5 at 0.2 micrograms.kg-1.min-1. Fenoldopam produced a dose-related increase in renal blood flow and PAH clearance. With 0.2 micrograms.kg-1.min-1 fenoldopam, urine flow increased from 81 +/- 25 to 116 +/- 29 ml/h, NaE from 28 +/- 7 to 85 +/- 70 microM/min, and KE from 65 +/- 12 to 109 +/- 16 microM/min. CONCLUSIONS: The results of the current study indicate that intravenous fenoldopam at a dose of 0.2 micrograms.kg-1.min-1 improves renal hemodynamics and increases Na and K excretion in patients requiring mechanical ventilation of their lungs and PEEP. These effects are probably caused by an increased kidney perfusion secondary to renal artery vasodilation.  相似文献

Haemodynamic and endocrine stress responses were compared during total intravenous anaesthesia with sufentanil and midazolam or fentanyl and midazolam in patients undergoing elective major abdominal surgery. Twenty-two ASA I and II patients were allocated randomly to receive sufentanil (induction 1.5 micrograms kg-1 plus infusion 1.5 micrograms kg-1 h-1) or fentanyl (induction 10 micrograms kg-1 plus infusion 10 micrograms kg-1 h-1) supplemented with 0.15 microgram kg-1 sufentanil or 1 microgram kg-1 fentanyl as necessary. Midazolam was infused to obtain plasma concentrations of 500-600 ng ml-1. Ventilation was with oxygen-enriched air. The opioid infusion was reduced post-operatively by half and benzodiazepine effects were reversed by titration with flumazenil. Mean arterial pressure, heart rate and cardiac index decreased in both groups after induction (cardiac index: sufentanil 4.94 +/- 0.45 to 2.99 +/- 0.18 litre min-1; fentanyl 4.97 +/- 0.45 to 3.71 +/- 0.36 litre min-1), but all returned to baseline during surgery. With sufentanil; mean arterial pressure was lower throughout the study period, and heart rate was lower intra-operatively. Oxygen uptake decreased in both groups after induction (sufentanil 289 +/- 29 to 184 +/- 21 ml min-1; fentanyl 318 +/- 32 to 216 +/- 32 ml min-1) and remained low with sufentanil until flumazenil was given. Adrenaline concentrations increased in both groups but there was no intergroup difference. The median noradrenaline concentration was lower intra-operatively with sufentanil (0.47 nmol litre-1 (range 0.06-6.77)) than with fentanyl (0.73 nmol litre-1 (0.07-4.58)). Cortisol, glucose and lactate concentrations increased in both groups. Bradycardia occurred in four patients with sufentanil and in three with fentanyl. There were two cases of marked thoracic rigidity with sufentanil and one with fentanyl.  相似文献

BACKGROUND: Mivazerol (MIV) is an alpha 2-adrenoceptor agonist designed to prevent adverse cardiac outcome in perioperative patients. The present study was undertaken to determine whether the hyperdynamic state observed at emergence from halothane (HAL) anesthesia in rats could be modulated by MIV and to explore the mode of action of MIV under such conditions. METHODS: Male Sprague Dawley rats were anesthetized with 1% HAL and assisted for respiration (N2O-O2: 70-30%). MIV 2.2-15.3 micrograms.kg-1.h-1 i.v. was infused 30 min before withdrawal of anesthesia and compared for heart rate (HR) and systolic arterial blood pressure (SAP) to control animals treated with saline. In some experiments, animals were pretreated with intrathecal pertussis toxin (T2 level, 0.5 microgram, 7 d), or i.v. rauwolscine (0.34 mg/kg, 5 min) or were bilaterally stellectomized (30 min) prior to withdrawal of HAL. RESULTS: Increases in HR (65 bpm, +20%) and in SAP (25 mmHg, +26%) were observed immediately upon discontinuation of HAL and remained constant for at least 30 min. The increase in HR was abolished by removal of the stellate ganglia. MIV dose-dependently inhibited the increase in HR from 4.8 micrograms.kg-1.h-1 (68% reduction, P < 0.05) without affecting HR or SAP during anesthesia. Inhibition of HR increase was of 98% at 15.3 micrograms.kg-1.h-1. This effect was abolished by rauwolscine, and partially (50%) inhibited by pertussis toxin pre-treatment. CONCLUSION: These results demonstrate that withdrawal of HAL anesthesia in the rat produces a sustained increase in HR due to activation of the sympathetic system and that MIV inhibits this tachycardia via activation of alpha 2-adrenoceptors located at least in part in the spinal cord.  相似文献

The effects of i.v. infusion of the alpha1-adrenoceptor antagonists doxazosin and terazosin (2 mg kg-1 h-1) on spontaneous hypogastric, renal and inferior cardiac nerve activity, spontaneous bladder contractions, blood pressure, heart rate and femoral arterial flow were investigated separately in alpha-chloralose-anaesthetized cats. Both drugs caused a reduction in hypogastric nerve activity associated with no overt changes in spontaneous bladder contractions. Doxazosin was more potent than terazosin, in that there was a significant reduction in hypogastric nerve activity after 20 min (0.67 mg kg-1) of infusion, while for terazosin this occurred after 40 min (1.33 mg kg-1). Both drugs also caused significant falls in blood pressure of 34 +/- 3 mm Hg and 33 +/- 4 mm Hg after 60 min. This was associated with no change in heart rate for doxazosin while terazosin caused an initial and significant increase in heart rate of 20 +/- 3 beats min-1 by 5 min, declining by 30 min to 1 +/- 5 beats min-1. This terazosin-induced tachycardia was associated with a significant increase in cardiac nerve activity of 128 +/- 22%. Both drugs caused increases in renal nerve activity however only for doxazosin was this increase significant. Femoral arterial conductance was also increased by both drugs, however, for doxazosin this increase was immediate and larger over the infusion period. These results demonstrate that alpha1-adrenoceptor antagonists can reduce sympathetic drive to the bladder and related organs.  相似文献

We performed a double-blind, placebo-controlled study to determine whether oral enoximone would aid weaning dobutamine-dependent patients. Twenty-four patients 64 +/- 10 years, with an echocardiographic ejection fraction of 0.20 +/- 0.06, and receiving maximal therapy were studied. After failure of dobutamine weaning, a dobutamine infusion was set up at 10 micrograms.kg-1.min-1 for 48 h. Oral enoximone (100 mg t.i.d.) or placebo was added from D0 for the next 28 days, while the dobutamine dosage was progressively decreased after D4 and eventually stopped at D7. The patients were then followed-up for 21 days (i.e. until enoximone administration had continued for 28 days). In the placebo group, two patients suffered a relapse of congestive heart failure (CHF) before D4, six patients withdrew during dobutamine tapering (five with a relapse of CHF and one with septic shock) and two during follow-up (one with a relapse of CHF and one with sustained ventricular tachycardia). In the enoximone group, three patients withdrew during dobutamine tapering (two with a relapse of CHF, one with a cutaneous rash). Four patients on placebo and nine receiving enoximone could be weaned from dobutamine, P < 0.05. Echocardiographic LV ejection fraction significantly increased and Doppler-derived indexes of systolic function tended to increase when enoximone but not placebo was associated with dobutamine. Oral enoximone might be helpful in weaning patients with end-stage congestive heart failure from i.v. dobutamine.  相似文献

The aim of this study was to determine the cardiac performance of conscious healthy dogs during stimulation with dobutamine. Eight healthy unsedated beagle dogs were used. Cardiac output was measured by the thermodilution technique and blood pressures by extravascular pressure transducers. Dobutamine challenge at a dosage ranging from 27.5 to 50 micrograms kg-1 min-1 induced a significant rise in cardiac power index (CPI), cardiac index (CI), stroke index (SI) and heart rate (HR) and a significant decrease in pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR) and systemic vascular resistance (SVR). The highest CPI was 2.05 times greater than its basal resting value. The CI was primarily responsible for this increase in CPI. The SI and HR contributed approximately 55 per cent and 45 per cent respectively of the maximal increase in CI.  相似文献

OBJECTIVES: This multicenter study compared the efficacy and safety of ibutilide versus procainamide for conversion of recent-onset atrial flutter or fibrillation. BACKGROUND: Ibutilide fumarate is an intravenous (IV) class III antiarrhythmic agent that has been shown to be significantly more effective than placebo in the pharmacologic conversion of atrial flutter and fibrillation to sinus rhythm. Procainamide is commonly used for conversion of recent-onset atrial fibrillation to normal sinus rhythm. METHODS: One hundred twenty-seven patients (age range 22 to 92 years) with atrial flutter or fibrillation of 3 h to 90 days' (mean 21 days) duration were randomized to receive either two 10-min IV infusions of 1 mg of ibutilide fumarate, separated by a 10-min infusion of 5% dextrose in sterile water, or three successive 10-min IV infusions of 400 mg of procainamide hydrochloride. RESULTS: Of the 127 patients, 120 were evaluated for efficacy: 35 (58.3%) of 60 in the ibutilide group compared with 11 (18.3%) of 60 in the procainamide group had successful termination within 1.5 h of treatment (p < 0.0001). Seven patients were found to have violated the protocol and were not included in the final evaluation. In the patients with atrial flutter, ibutilide had a significantly higher success rate than procainamide (76% [13 of 17] vs. 14% [3 of 22], p=0.001). Similarly, in the atrial fibrillation group, ibutilide had a significantly higher success rate than procainamide (51% [22 of 43] vs. 21% [8 of 38], p=0.005). One patient who received ibutilide, which was found to be a protocol violation, had sustained polymorphic ventricular tachycardia requiring direct current cardioversion. Seven patients who received procainamide became hypotensive. CONCLUSIONS: This study establishes the superior efficacy of ibutilide over procainamide when administered to patients to convert either atrial fibrillation or atrial flutter to sinus rhythm. Hypotension was the major adverse effect seen with procainamide. A low incidence of serious proarrhythmia was seen with the administration of ibutilide occurring at the end of infusion.  相似文献
