Resumo

JUSTIFICATIVA E OBJETIVOS: O pinçamento aórtico infra-renal pode determinar alterações cardiovasculares. A clonidina, um alfa2-agonista, determina bradicardia e diminuição da pressão arterial. O objetivo do estudo foi avaliar os efeitos da clonidina sobre a função cardiovascular, em cães submetidos a pinçamento aórtico infra-renal. MÉTODO: O estudo aleatório foi realizado em 16 cães, distribuídos em dois grupos: G Controle - sem a utilização de clonidina e G Clon - clonidina, na dose inicial de 5 µg.kg-1, por via venosa, imediatamente antes do pinçamento aórtico infra-renal, seguido de 2 µg.min-1.m² até o final do estudo. Em todos os animais foi realizada ligadura infra-renal da aorta, por 45 minutos. Os atributos hemodinâmicos foram estudados nos momentos C (controle), após 10 (Ao10) e 25 (Ao25) minutos do pinçamento aórtico, e após 10 (DAo10) e 25 (DAo25) minutos do despinçamento aórtico. RESULTADOS: Durante o pinçamento aórtico, houve diferença significante entre os grupos, em relação à freqüência cardíaca, pressão arterial média e índice cardíaco (G Controle > G Clon). Após o despinçamento aórtico houve diferença significante entre os grupos, em relação à freqüência cardíaca (G Controle > G Clon) e pressões do átrio direito e da artéria pulmonar ocluída (G Clon > G Controle). Durante o pinçamento aórtico, houve nos dois grupos, aumento significante das pressões de átrio direito e artéria pulmonar ocluída, dos índices sistólico e do trabalho sistólico do ventrículo esquerdo, e diminuição do índice de resistência vascular pulmonar. No grupo controle houve aumento significante das pressões arterial média e da artéria pulmonar, e dos índices cardíaco e do trabalho sistólico do ventrículo direito. No grupo clonidina, houve diminuição significante da freqüência cardíaca. Após o despinçamento aórtico, houve nos dois grupos: diminuição significante da freqüência cardíaca e pressão arterial média, enquanto os valores das pressões do átrio direito e índice sistólico continuaram elevados. No grupo controle, os valores do índice de trabalho sistólico do ventrículo direito continuaram elevados enquanto os valores do índice cardíaco retornaram a valores próximos aos do controle. No grupo clonidina, os valores das pressões do átrio direito e da artéria pulmonar ocluída, e o índice sistólico, continuaram significantemente elevados. CONCLUSÕES: No cão, nas condições experimentais empregadas, a administração venosa contínua de clonidina atenua as respostas cardiovasculares decorrentes do pinçamento aórtico infra-renal.

Abstract

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Infrarenal aortic cross-clamping is associated to cardiovascular effects. Clonidine, an alpha2-agonist, determines bradycardia and hypotension. This study aimed at analyzing the effects of clonidine on the cardiovascular function of dogs submitted to infrarenal aortic cross-clamping. METHODS: This randomized study involved 16 mixed breed dogs randomly distributed in two groups: G Control - no clonidine; and G Clon - clonidine (5 µg.kg-1) immediately before aortic cross-clamping, followed by 2 µg.min-1.m² until the end of the study. All dogs were submitted to infrarenal aortic cross-clamping during 45 minutes. Hemodynamic parameters were measured at control (C), 10 (Ao10) and 25 (Ao25) minutes after aortic cross-clamping, and 10 (DAo10) and 25 (DAo25) minutes after aortic unclamping. RESULTS: There were significant differences between groups in heart rate, mean blood pressure and cardiac index (G control > G Clon) during aortic cross-clamping. After aortic unclamping there were significant differences between groups in heart rate (G Control > G Clon), and right atrium and pulmonary capillary wedge pressures (G Clon > G Control). During aortic cross-clamping both groups have shown significant increase in right atrium pressure, pulmonary capillary wedge pressure, stroke volume index and left ventricular systolic work index, and significant decrease in pulmonary vascular resistance index. There has been significant increase in mean blood pressure, pulmonary artery pressure, cardiac index and right ventricular systolic work index in the G Control. The clonidine group has shown significant heart rate decrease. After aortic unclamping, both groups have shown significant heart rate and mean blood pressure decrease, while right atrium pressure and stroke volume index remained high. Right ventricular systolic work index remained high in the control group, while cardiac index values returned to close to baseline values. In the clonidine group, right atrium pressure, pulmonary wedge pressure and systolic index remained significantly high. CONCLUSIONS: In dogs under our experimental conditions, continuous intravenous clonidine has attenuated cardiovascular responses to infrarenal aortic cross-clamping.
