Effects of Nicorandil Versus Nitroglycerin on Arterial Oxygenation During Two-Lung Ventilation and One-Lung Ventilation in Patients With Risk Factors for Myocardial Ischemia: A Prospective, Randomized, Double-Blind Study.
OBJECTIVES: To compare the effects of nicorandil and nitroglycerin on arterial oxygenation during two-lung ventilation (TLV) and one-lung ventilation (OLV) in patients with risk factors for myocardial ischemia.
DESIGN: A prospective, randomized, double-blind study.
SETTING: A tertiary care hospital.
PARTICIPANTS: Fifty-six patients scheduled for elective video-assisted thoracic surgery were assigned randomly to either the nicorandil group or the nitroglycerin group.
INTERVENTIONS: Patients in the nicorandil group received a bolus dose of nicorandil, 0.08 mg/kg during induction of anesthesia, followed by a continuous infusion at a rate of 0.08 mg/kg/h. Patients in the nitroglycerin group received a continuous infusion of nitroglycerin at a rate of 1 µg/kg/min from the induction of anesthesia.
MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS: Arterial blood gas analysis was performed at the following points: before induction of anesthesia; during TLV; at 5, 10, 20, and 30 minutes after the initiation of OLV. PaO2 at TLV (479.7 ± 57.1 v 408.2 ± 70.9 mmHg, p < 0.001); and at 5 minutes (344.8 ± 85.1 v 282.6 ± 85.8 mmHg, p = 0.012), 20 minutes (215.7 ± 103.0 v 158.2 ± 74.5 mmHg, p = 0.027), and 30 minutes (198.8 ± 103.5 v 147.5 ± 64.1 mmHg, p = 0.039) after OLV was significantly higher in the nicorandil group than in the nitroglycerin group.
CONCLUSION: This study demonstrated that oxygenation during TLV and OLV was significantly higher in patients receiving nicorandil than in those receiving nitroglycerin.
