Comparison of the Effects of Dobutamine and Milrinone on Hemodynamic Parameters and Oxygen Supply in Patients Undergoing Cardiac Surgery with Low Cardiac Output after Anesthetic Induction

Abstract: Both inotropic drugs were similarly effective in restoring tissue blood flow and oxygen supply to adequate levels in patients with low cardiac output undergoing cardiac surgery.

“…Milrinone has been successfully used in the treatment of septic shock paediatric patients with normal or low cardiac output [50]. In patients with low cardiac output after cardiotomy, milrinone was equally effective in increasing systemic blood flow when compared to dobutamine and in patients with severe heart failure and low cardiac output [51] a recent small study reported no exacerbation of myocardial injury as assessed by measurements of biomarkers of myocardial injury and inflammation [52]. However, the use of milrinone has been associated with new onset arrhythmias e.g.…”

“…In adults, dobutamine and milrinone resulted in a similar significant and sustained increase in cardiac index, and both drugs were effective in improving the general hemodynamic variables in postsurgical cardiac patients (6,15).…”

“…The treatment of increased pulmonary vascular resistance has not been fully established due to the lack of selectivity of drugs for pulmonary vasculature. Many agents, such as dobutamine, norepinephrine, levosimendan, nitric oxide and nitroglycerin, were used to relieve pulmonary hypertension during cardiovascular surgery [7][8][9][10]. However, these inotropic drugs have possible systemic or cardiac side effects, like arrhythmia and increased myocardial oxygen consumption resulting in cardiac ischemia and renal failure [11,12].…”
