Left ventricular ejection fraction: single-plane and multiplanar transesophageal echocardiography versus equilibrium gat...

Nessly, M L Bashein, G Detmer, P R Graham, M M Kao, R Martin, R W

Published in Journal of cardiothoracic and vascular anesthesia

The relative accuracy and precision of estimating left ventricular ejection fraction (EF) in dogs were assessed by two-dimensional transesophageal echocardiography (2D-TEE) and by three-dimensional transesophageal echocardiographic (3D-TEE) imaging and reconstruction. This assessment was accomplished by comparing each echocardiographic method to a ...

Hemodynamic alterations and regional myocardial blood flow during supraceliac aortic occlusion in dogs with a critical c...

Wahr, J A Gallagher, K P Tait, A R Hantler, C B Knight, P R

Published in Journal of cardiothoracic and vascular anesthesia

The hemodynamic consequences and myocardial blood flow alterations associated with cross-clamping of the thoracic aorta were studied during pentobarbital (control), halothane (1 MAC), and isoflurane (1 MAC) anesthesia in dogs with a critical stenosis of the left circumflex coronary artery. Aortic clamping at the level of the diaphragm resulted in s...

Effects of fenoldopam on renal blood flow and systemic hemodynamics during isoflurane anesthesia.

Aronson, S Goldberg, L I Glock, D Roth, S Moss, J Roizen, M F

Published in Journal of cardiothoracic and vascular anesthesia

The authors compared the systemic hemodynamic and renal vascular effects of hypotension induced by fenoldopam with those produced by the most commonly used hypotensive agent, sodium nitroprusside, in 10 dogs. Mean arterial pressure decreased 26% +/- 3% from control following infusion with fenoldopam, and 30% +/- 2% following infusion with sodium ni...

Diagnostic pitfalls with the combination of a hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and aortic valvular stenosis.

Endothelium-derived relaxing factor: basic review and clinical implications.

Johns, R A

Published in Journal of cardiothoracic and vascular anesthesia

EDRF is a potent, endogenous vasodilator that is produced and released from endothelial cells and subsequently causes the relaxation of VSM through the activation of soluble guanylate cyclase and an increase in VSM cyclic GMP. Structurally, EDRF is likely to be NO or a related nitrogen oxide-containing compound. It is synthesized in endothelial and...
