To study the influence of propafenone associated with propofol on myocardial contractility (dP/dt and heart rate), coronary flow, and the incidence of arrhythmia in isolated rat hearts.Forty albino rats were anesthetized with sulfuric ether, a modified Langendorff method was performed, and the rats were fed with Krebs-Henseleit (K-H) solution, (95% O2, 5% CO2, pH 7.4+/-0.1, perfusion pressure between 90 and 100cm of water, and temperature 37+/- 0.5 masculine C). Control records were obtained after a stabilization period and rats were distributed into the following 4 groups: I (control), II (100mcg propafenone), III (25mcg propofol), and IV (propafenone-propofol).A decrease (P0.05) in the heart rate in groups II and IV was observed, with a greater decrease in group II. A decrease was noted in the dP/dt ratio (P0.05) in groups II and IV, during all periods. Group III experienced depression from the 1st to the 3rd minute. Coronary flow had a decrease (P0.05) in all groups, compared with the control group, especially in group IV with a decrease from 14mL/min to 11mL/min. Arrhythmogenic effects of propafenone (pro-arrhythmia) were verified in 50% of group II. In the association with propofol (group IV), no significant difference occurred, and arrhythmias (pro-arrhythmic effect) were observed in 40% of the hearts.The association propafenone-propofol was not harmful to the use of propafenone solely, regarding the effects observed in myocardial contractility, coronary flow, and in the incidence of arrhythmias. |
