Abstract:
Objective: To explore whether high epidural blockade(HEB) can lower the elevated serum free fatty acids(FFA) level in the patients with acute myocardial infarction(AMI). Method:In 7 patients with AMI,HEB at T 15 was performed by injecting 5 to 7ml of 0.5%-0.75% lidocaine every 2 to 4 hours for 7 successive days;while the other 7 patients with AMI didn't use HEB as control. only morphine or dolantine was used for relieving angina cordis. Result: The elevated FFA level returned to normal range in 12 hours following HEB in the study group, but in one week in the control group. Conclusion:HEB(T1-5) can lower the elevated FFA level in AMI patients to normal within12 hours.
