Abstract:
Objective To investigate the effect of preoperative pravastatin preconditioning on myocardial ischemia-repedusion(I/R)injury in patients undergoing cardiac valve replacement with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB).Methods Sixty ASA Ⅱ orⅢpatients of both sexes aged 18-64 yr undergoing cardiac valve replacement under CPB were randomly divided into 4 groups(n=15 each):control group(group C)and 3 pravastatin groups receiving oral pravastatin 10,20 and 40 mg respectively every night for 7 days before operation(group P1-3).The number of patients receiving dopamine(≥5 μg·kg-1·min-1)and adrenaline was recorded from the termination of CPB to the end of operation,from the end of operation to 12 h after operation,during 12-24 h after operation and during 24-48 h after operation.Venous blood samples were taken from central venous line for measurement of plasme cTnI and CK-MB concentrations at 7 days before operation,before induction of anesthesia,at opening of the aorta and at 2,24 and 48 h after opening of aorta.Results The number of patients receiving dopamine and adrenaline was significantly less in group P3 than in group C(P<0.05).Plasma CK-MB and cTnI concentrations were significantly lower in group P3 than in group C(P<0.05).Conclusion Preconditioning with oral pravastatin(40mg/d for 7 consecutive days)can protect myocardium against I/R injury in patients undergoing cardiac valve replacement with CPB.
