Randomized Controlled Trial Clinical Trial[The effectiveness of enoximone in patients with serious left ventricular dysfunction submitted for aorto-coronary bypass].
The purpose of this study was to investigate whether the combined positive inotropic and vasodilating properties of enoximone have a short-term benefit when used in patients who underwent open heart surgery. ⋯ Enoximone administer immediately after open heart surgery had more beneficial hemodynamic and clinical effects than dopamine in patients with severe left ventricular dysfunction.

Randomized Controlled Trial Clinical Trial[Anesthesia with sevoflurane vs propofol in elective extracavity surgery].
To compare the cardiovascular effects and recovery characteristics of sevoflurane and propofol anesthesia in 80 ASA I and II patients undergoing elective extracavity surgery expected to last at least one hour. ⋯ In the sevoflurane group, heart rate and diastolic pressure were slightly higher than in the propofol group. Recovery time was faster after sevoflurane anesthesia.
