Popis: | Isotonic and isometric variables of contractility and relaxation of isolated ferret right ventricular papillary muscles were measured before and during exposure to incremental concentrations of sevoflurane (0–4.9% vol/vol) (30°C) ( n = 9). In a second group of muscles ( n = 8), effects of sevoflurane were compared with those of low [Ca2+]o(0.45–2.25 mM in steps of 0.45 mM). Sevoflurane caused a reversible concentration-dependent decrease in contractility (ED50of developed force 4.6 ± 0.9% vol/vol). When compared with twitches of equal amplitude in low extracellular Ca2+concentration, sevoflurane accelerated both isometric and isotonic relaxation. The myocardial depressant effect of sevoflurane is less than that of isoflurane and results mainly from a decrease of intracellular Ca2+availability. The abbreviated isometric relaxation likely reflects a decrease in Ca2+sensitivity and the faster isotonic relaxation may reflect a mild stimulation of Ca2+uptake by the sarcoplasmic reticulum. |
