Comparison of Dexmedetomidine and Remifentanil Infusion During CABG

Dexmedetomidine Clinical Trial

Official title:
The Comparison of Serum Potassium Concentration, Antiarrhythmic Effect, and Myocardial Protective Effect Between Dexmedetomidine and Remifentanil Infusion in Patients Undergoing Coronary Artery Bypass Surgery

Clinical Trial Summary

We are trying to investigate whether intraoperative dexmedetomidine infusion could decrease the incidence of intraoperative hypokalemia and arrhythmia, and myocardial injury in patients undergoing off-pump coronary artery bypass graft, and trying compare these effects with those of remifentanil infusion.

Clinical Trial Description

Alpha2-adrenergic agonist, dexmedetomidine, is recently used for sedation, analgesia or adjuvant to general anesthesia. Postsynaptic activation of alpha2 adrenoceptors in the central nervous system (CNS) inhibits sympathetic activity and thus can decrease blood pressure and heart rate. The blockade of sympathetic activity decrease the neuroendocrine stress response and may decrease the incidence of hypokalemia. The hypokalemia can increase the incidence of arrythmia, especially in cardiac patients. We postulated that dexmedetomidine could decrease the neuroendocrine stress response, thus decrease arrhythmia during cardiac surgery. Furthermore, dexmedetomidine have been reported to have cardioprotective effect with previous animal studies.

Therefore, the aim of the present study is to investigate whether the intraoperative dexmedetomidine infusion can reduce the incidence of hypokalemia and arrythmia, and myocardial injury in subjects undergoing off-pump coronary artery bypass graft. We are also trying to compare these effects with those of remifentanil infusion. ;
