BACKGROUND Esmolol is marketed as a racemate (RS-esmolol) with hypotension being the most frequently reported adverse event. Previously, it has been shown that the S-enantiomer (S-esmolol) possesses all of the heart rate (HR) control. The authors studied whether S-esmolol alone mitigates hypotension at similar degrees of HR control compared with RS-esmolol. METHODS The effects of RS- and S-es...
BACKGROUND Head-upright tilt (HUT) testing is valuable in evaluating syncope. Isoproterenol is used to increase sensitivity. However, isoproterenol is contraindicated or dangerous in undiagnosed heart disease and produces false-positives. We introduced esmolol withdrawal during esmolol HUT, hypothesizing that (1) acute withdrawal of the ultrashort-acting beta-blocker induces beta-adrenergic eff...
UNLABELLED This study examined the effects of an esmolol infusion on the electroencephalogram during propofol/alfentanil IV anesthesia. After informed consent, 20 patients were randomly assigned into four groups on the basis of two target alfentanil concentrations (alfentanil 50 or 150 ng/mL) and of a saline or esmolol infusion. Bispectral index (BIS), burst suppression ratio (SR), and physiolo...
Many researchers have studied esmolol and its effects on heart rate and blood pressure. All studied relatively large doses of esmolol. Therefore, the purpose of the present study was to determine whether small doses of esmolol would blunt the transient increases in blood pressure and heart rate caused by laryngoscopy. This double-blind, prospective, randomized study included 61 subjects. The su...
Purpose. This study was aimed at investigating the effect of esmolol on tissue perfusion and the clinical prognosis of patients with severe sepsis. Materials and Methods. One hundred fifty-one patients with severe sepsis were selected and divided into the esmolol group (n = 75) or the control group (n = 76), who received conventional antiseptic shock treatment. The esmolol group received a cont...
The stereoselective hydrolysis of esmolol in whole blood and in its separated components from rat, rabbit and human was investigated. Blood esterase activities were variable in different species in the order of rat>rabbit>human. Rat plasma showed the high esterase activity and had no stereoselectivity to enantiomers. Rabbit red blood cell (RBC) membrane, RBC cytosol and plasma all hydrolyzed es...
OBJECTIVE We previously showed that arrest with multidose infusions of high-dose (1 mmol/L) esmolol (an ultra-short-acting beta-blocker) in oxygenated Krebs-Henseleit buffer (esmolol cardioplegia) provided complete myocardial protection after 40 minutes of normothermic (37 degrees C) global ischemia in isolated rat hearts. In this study we investigated the importance of oxygenation for protecti...
OBJECTIVES Current cardiac surgery patients are older, sicker, with more diffuse disease and hence a reduced tolerance to ischaemia-reperfusion injury. We previously demonstrated that esmolol, an ultra-short-acting β-blocker, can be used as an arresting agent at high (millimolar) concentrations, and that a crystalloid-based esmolol cardioplegia afforded cardioprotection at least equivalent to h...
The aim of this randomised controlled study was to determine whether an esmolol infusion affected the incidence of ST segment changes during weaning from intermittent positive pressure ventilation and tracheal extubation after coronary artery surgery. Thirty-one patients received an infusion of esmolol 0-300 microg x kg(-1) x min(-1) and 37 patients comprised the control group. ST segment chang...
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Perioperative esmolol as an opioid alternative has been shown to reduce postoperative nausea vomiting using opioid sparing. The aim of this meta-analysis was to compare esmolol and opioids on postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV), time spent in recovery, and analgesia in noncardiac surgeries. MATERIAL AND METHODS OVID Medline (1980-February 2014), OVID EMBASE, EBSCO, CI...
