Objectives • Introduction to the topic of IP • Risk factors for CAD • Cardiac anatomy and ischemia • Ischemic preconditioning (IPC) and anesthetic agents • Summary
Epidemiology • CAD is the leading cause of death • Direct cost of cardiovascular care > 260 billion • ~ 1,000,000 deaths form CAD per year • Every 29 seconds one American dies of AMI • Cost of CABG > 12 billion (2% of all heath care costs) • In US (1996) ~ 300,000 CABG; 400,000 PTCA • Waiting time for CABG (UK, Sweden, Canada) > 9 mo.
What is cardiac ischemia? • Cardiac ischemia is a situation in which the bloodflow within a coronary artery is limited to the point where the oxygen demands of the heart muscle cannot be met (hypoxia). * Impaired oxygen supply/demand ratio.
Coronary artery distribution • LV - Anterior - LAD Anterolateral - OM branch CxA Inferior - PDA branch of RCA, CxA Apex - Distal LAD Posterior / Posterolateral - CxA Septum - septal branches of LAD • RV - RCA, and branches of LAD and CxA • Sinus node - proximal RCA (55%), CxA (45%) • A-V node - distal RCA (90%), CxA (10%)
Methods to Detect Ischemia • Chest pain if patient is awake • ECG changes • Hypotension • Tachycardia • Elevated pulmonary artery occlusion pressure (PAOP) • Large v-waves on PAOP tracing • Fall in cardiac output/index • Detection with TTE/TEE
J-point Isoelectric point Intraoperative ECG monitoring • Computerized ST segment monitoring • ST depression > 1 mm 60 msec after J-point • Slope of the depression • horizontal • downsloping

Choice of Anesthesia No good or bad anesthesia so far defined BUT... With the theory of Ischemic Preconditioning It may become important to choose appropriate anesthesia
Ischemic preconditioning (IPC)? IPC describes the adaptation(1) of the myocardium to ischemicstress (2) preceded by short periods of ischemia(3) andreperfusion (4).
Effects of inhalational anesthetics on IPC(I) • Volatile anesthetics produce direct coronary artery relaxation by affecting intracellular Ca2+ regulation at several locations in the vascular smooth muscle cell.
Effects of inhalational anesthetics on IPC(II) • Volatile agentsinhibit Ca2+ influx through voltage - and receptoroperated Ca2+ channels in coronary vascular smooth muscle
Effects of inhalational anesthetics on IPC(III) • Volatile anesthetics also reduce Ca2+ accumulation in and release by the coronary vascular smooth muscle sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR), inhibit G proteins linked to phospholipase C, and decrease formation of the second messenger inositol triphosphate.

Ischemic preconditioning (1) • Study from Torino, Italy • Firstperiod or window of protection can lasts up to 3 hours • Second window of protection (SWOP) which begins about 24 hours after the brief coronary occlusions and lasts about 72 hours. • Release of endogenous agents such as adenosine and nitric oxide (NO) may activate protein-kinase C (PKC) and ATP sensitive potassium (K+(ATP) channels. • Free oxygen radicals released during preconditioning are likely to take part in the delayed protection through the production of peroxynitrite which activates PKC and antioxidant enzymes such as Manganese superoxide-dismutase. Ischemic preconditioning: from the first to the second window of protection. Pagliaro P - Life Sci - 25-May-2001; 69(1): 1-15.

Ischemic preconditioning (2) • From Aachen, Germany, clinical studies ischemia was demonstrated with administration of • adenosine • adenosine-receptor-agonists • dipyridamole-a nucleoside-transport inhibitor • Therapeutic applications of ischemicpreconditioning have been developed for: • brief periods of ischemia • "pharmacologic preconditioning" prior to coronary angioplasty • prior to cardiac surgery • protection of donor heart for cardiac transplantation.

Summary(1) Anesthetic agents have distinctive actions on IPC. Choice of background anesthesia may play a major role in cardiac protection in clinical and experimental medicine.
Summary(2) • Ischemia might be protective for the heart if it is mild and reversible • Inhalational anesthetics may precondition the heart and reduce postoperative ischemia • Choice of anesthetic may decrease: • AMI • duration of hospitalization • costs of total medical care
