ABSTRACT
Introduction: in the cases of ischemic cardiopathy patients, different preventive
strategies have been designed to limit the damage for ischemia-reperfusion, in order
to optimize the balance in myocardial oxygen consumption.
Objectives: To determine what cardio-protective (nitroglycerin or diltiazem) strategy
is more effective in coronary revascularization.
Methods: A randomized therapeutic trial was conducted to assess the cardioprotective
effect of diltiazem and nitroglycerin in patients intervened with heart
beating.
Results: 175 patients were studied: the nitroglycerin group N=90 patients and the
diltiazem group D=85. Sustained myocardial ischemia in group D was 20% vs. 12%
in N; p=0.04. ST infra-imbalance prevailed. It was 10% in the N group vs 39% in
group D; p = 0.002. The most frequent alteration was segmental hypokinesia in 36%
of the patients. Akinesia was higher in group D, 9.4% vs. group N 4.4%; p = 0.05.
The average value of mean intraoperative blood pressure was 80 mm/Hg in the group
N vs.61.4 mm/Hg in group D; p = 0.003. The average heart rate in the group N was
63 bpm vs Group D which was 50 bpm; p = 0.006. The most common arrhythmia
was atrial fibrillation 28%, in the N group 34% vs. group D 21%, p = 0.037. The
average value of troponin after 24 h was 125 pg/ml in group D vs.97.7 pg/ml in
group N; p = 0.042. Adverse effects were minimal. Sustained hypotension in group D
was 30% vs 5.5% in group N; p = 0.002. AV block was observed in the group N 4%
vs 15% in group D; p = 0.01. Perioperative IMA was 2.2 times more frequent with
diltiazem than with nitroglycerin.
Conclusions: Perioperative infusion of nitroglycerin provides better cardioprotective
effect then diltiazem in preventing sustained ischemic events, associated with less
release of T troponin and better hemodynamic stability. Diltiazem is associated with a
decreased risk of postoperative atrial fibrillation. Adverse effects and complications
prevailed in patients treated with diltiazem. IMA perioperative risk was 2.2 times
higher in this group.
