Clinical Trial Summary

Silent myocardial ischemia is known to occur in the general medical intensive care unit population immediately following tracheal extubation. We believe these patients are at risk for primary cardiac events in the 4 hours immediately following extubation. Metoprolol is a selective beta-1 antagonist, with little to no beta-2 activity at low and moderate doses. The cardioprotective effects of beta blockade have been well documented in randomized controlled trials. In patients undergoing extubation, prophylactic use of intravenous metoprolol may reduce post-extubation ischemia events as well as precursors of cardiogenic pulmonary edema (atrial and ventricular wall tension). Our primary hypothesis is that prophylactic metoprolol (titrated to reduce resting heart rate by at least 10%) prior to tracheal extubation will reduce the rate of ischemia as judged by ST segment analysis.
