Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • mean arterial pressure

    The effect of inhaled milrinone on mean arterial pressure is compared with the effect of intravenous milrinone

    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 Outcomes (3)

  • mean pulmonary arterial pressure

    change in mean pulmonary arterial pressure 10 minutes after milrinone administration

  • systemic vascular resistance

    change in systemic vascular resistance 10 minutes after milrinone administration

  • pulmonary vascular resistance

    change in pulmonary vascular resistance 10 minutes after milrinone administration

Study Arms (2)

Group IH(inhaled milrinone)

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

After induction of anesthesia and stable hemodynamics inhaled milrinone( 1 mg/ml) is initiated and intravenous placebo ( normal saline )infusion are administered

Drug: Milrinone inhalation

Group Iv(Intravenous milrinone)

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

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

Drug: Milrinone infusion

Interventions

After induction of anesthesia and stable hemodynamics inhaled milrinone( 1 mg/ml) is initiated and intravenous placebo ( normal saline )infusion are administered

Also known as: primacor
Group IH(inhaled milrinone)

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

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years+
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

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

You may not qualify if:

  • 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
