Tóm tắt

Myocardial protection is still a focus of ongoing research. Propofol is used widely during the induction of anaesthesia in cardiac surgery. So, this triggers us to investigate the cardioprotective effect of the propofol when added to the cardioplegia compared to systemic propofol by measuring the troponin T level. This clinical randomized controlled trial was carried out on 150 patients operated for elective valvular heart surgery. Patients were assigned into three equal groups: Group 1: received propofol in the cardioplegia, Group 2: received propofol injection in the aortic line before and after the aortic cross-clamp, and Group 3 (control group): patients without propofol in the cardioplegia or aortic line. All patients were subjected to full medical histories, physical examinations, routine tests, and echocardiography. Cardiac troponin T was measured before surgery and 4 times postoperatively. In group 1, there was a significant improvement in troponin T level at the last reading compared with the control group (mean ± SD. of group 1 was 246.4 ± 131.4, mean ± SD. of group 3 was 317.0 ± 117.9, p = 0.031), denoting propofol's cardioprotective effect when added as a cardioplegia additive. In group 2, there was a significant improvement of troponin T level at the last reading compared with the group 1 and control group (mean ± SD. of group 2 was 202.54 ± 156.03, mean ± SD. of group 3 was 317.0 ± 117.9, p < 0.001), denoting propofol's more cardioprotective effect when used systemically during cardiopulmonary bypass than when added as a cardioplegia additive. In valvular cardiac surgery, propofol has an additional cardioprotective effect and a superior cardiac outcome when administered systematically during cardiopulmonary bypass rather than added to cardioplegia.
