Official title

Comparative Study Between Inhaled and Intravenous Milrinone in Patients With Severe Pulmonary Hypertension Undergoing Cardiac Surgery

Overview

The investigator compared difference between inhaled and intravenous milirinone in patiens with severe pulmonary hypertension undergoing cardiac surgery

Detailed description

Milrinone is widely used in cardiac surgery as an inotrope and pulmonary vasodilator agent But , intravenous milrinone has been associated with systemic hypotension and increased requirement for vasoactive drugs

The investigator compared difference between inhaled and intravenous milirinone in patiens with severe pulmonary hypertension undergoing cardiac surgery

Interventions

  • Drug Milrinone inhalation
    After induction of anesthesia and stable hemodynamics inhaled milrinone( 1 mg/ml) is initiated and intravenous placebo ( normal saline )infusion are administered
  • Drug Milrinone infusion
    After induction of anesthesia and stable hemodynamics inhaled placebo( normal saline) is initiated and intravenous ( 1 mg/ml) (0.5 μg/kg/min)infusion are administered

Primary outcome measures

  • mean arterial pressure [Time frame: change in mean arterial pressure is recorded 10 minutes after milrinone administration after induction (T1), at the end of nebulization (T2), before cardiopulmonary bypass (T3) and after cardiopulmonary bypass(T4)]
Secondary outcome measures (3)
  • mean pulmonary arterial pressure [Time frame: change in mean pulmonary arterial pressure 10 minutes after milrinone administration]
  • systemic vascular resistance [Time frame: change in systemic vascular resistance 10 minutes after milrinone administration]
  • pulmonary vascular resistance [Time frame: change in pulmonary vascular resistance 10 minutes after milrinone administration]

Eligibility criteria

Inclusion criteria

  • Patients scheduled to undergo mitral valve surgery by cardiopulmonary bypass with estimated mean pulmonary artery pressure =>55 estimated by using preoperative Doppler echocardiography

Exclusion criteria

Patients were excluded if they had surgery without CPB, preoperative hemodynamic instability (defined as acute requirement for vasoactive support or mechanical device),Patients with severe LV dysfunction (LV ejection fraction of less than 30% congenital heart disease, a contraindication to transesophageal echocardiography (TEE), emergency surgery or re-do surgeries severe renal or hepatic disease

, coagulopathy, and thromboembolic disease treated with anticoagulants

Criteria are shown verbatim from the registry (in English). Final eligibility is always assessed by the study center.
