The Effects of Adrenaline and Milrinone in Patients With Myocardial Dysfunction After CABG

Myocardial dysfunction necessitating inotropic support is a typical complication after
on-pump cardiac surgery. This prospective, randomized pilot-study analyses the metabolic and
renal effects of the inotropes adrenaline and milrinone in patients needing inotropic support
after coronary-artery-bypass-grafting. With respect to data derived from patients with sepsis
shock and results from studies using phosphodiesterase-inhibitors prophylactically, the
hypothesis is tested that adrenaline may be associated with unwarranted metabolic effects
(hyperlactatemia and hyperglycemia) and renal dysfunction.

Many pediatric patients undergoing cardiac surgery under cardiopulmonary bypass for repair of
complex congenital malformations, require inotropic support for low cardiac output syndrome.
Milrinone through its positive inotropic and vasodilatory effects is widely used for this
purpose. The aim of the study is to compare Milrinone with Levosimendan, a novel inotope with
calcium-sensitizing properties. We hypothesized that using Levosimendan would result in
reduced serum lactate through a higher cardiac index.

The purpose of this pilot study is to determine a safe dose of milrinone to use in a larger
study of babies with persistent pulmonary hypertension of the newborn (PPHN).
