Arterial dP/dtmax accurately reflects left ventricular contractility during shock when adequate vascular filling is achieved

چکیده
BACKGROUND Peak first derivative of femoral artery pressure (arterial dP/dtmax) derived from fluid-filled catheter remains questionable to assess left ventricular (LV) contractility during shock. The aim of this study was to test if arterial dP/dtmax is reliable for assessing LV contractility during various hemodynamic conditions such as endotoxin-induced shock and catecholamine infusion. METHODS Ventricular pressure-volume data obtained with a conductance catheter and invasive arterial pressure obtained with a fluid-filled catheter were continuously recorded in 6 anaesthetized and mechanically ventilated pigs. After a stabilization period, endotoxin was infused to induce shock. Catecholamines were transiently administrated during shock. Arterial dP/dtmax was compared to end-systolic elastance (Ees), the gold standard method for assessing LV contractility. RESULTS Endotoxin-induced shock and catecholamine infusion lead to significant variations in LV contractility. Overall, significant correlation (r=0.51; p<0.001) but low agreement between the two methods were observed. However, a far better correlation with a good agreement were observed when positive-pressure ventilation induced an arterial pulse pressure variation (PPV)≤11% (r=0.77; p<0.001). CONCLUSION While arterial dP/dtmax and Ees were significantly correlated during various hemodynamic conditions, arterial dP/dtmax was more accurate for assessing LV contractility when adequate vascular filling, defined as PPV≤11%, was achieved.

Background: Calcium channel blockers are important group of drugs that have been used in the treatment of a variety of cardiovascular diseases especially hypertension. In this study we have investigated the effects of three newly synthetized ester analogs of nifedipine (Compounds No. 1, 2 and 3) compared to nifedipine on mean arterial pressure, dp/dt (cardiac contractility index) and heart ra...
متن کاملThe effects of halothane on the interactions between myocardial contractility, aortic impedance, and left ventricular performance. I. Theoretical considerations and results.
The effects of halothane (1.0-1.5%) on myocardial contractility, systemic vascular resistance (representing the majority of impedance to oscillatory flow), and left ventricular performance, and the interactions of these functions have been studied in openchested dogs, artificially ventilated and maintained in a state of basal narcosis with chloralose and urethane. Halothane reversibly depressed...
متن کاملUsefulness of the maximum rate of pressure rise in the central and peripheral arteries after weaning from cardiopulmonary bypass in pediatric congenital heart surgery
The maximum rate of pressure rise (dP/dtmax) in radial artery has been proposed as a noninvasive surrogate of aortic dp/dtmax, reflecting left ventricular (LV) contractility in children. The aim of this study was to investigate relationship between aortic and radial dp/dtmax at weaning from cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) and usefulness of these indices for estimating postoperative outcomes in ped...
متن کاملEffect of digitalis on left ventricular function in exercising dogs.
The effect of ouabain on left ventricular function in nonfailing hearts was assessed in 14 chronically instrumented dogs during graded treadmill exercise. At rest, ouabain increased the maximum first derivative of the left ventricular pressure (dp/dtmax) and stroke volume by 38% and 16%, respectively. No change occurred in end-diastolic left ventricular diameter or peak systolic left ventricula...
