چکیده

Trimetaphan nitroprusside (TNP) is a new potent hypotensive agent developed to induce and maintain decreases in arterial pressure unaccompanied by resistance. This study investigated its properties and compared them with those of sodium nitroprusside (SNP) in anaesthetized greyhounds. The mean dose response to TNP was obtained by measuring haemodynamic changes in five dogs. With increasing doses, stepwise decreases in mean arterial pressure and progressive increases in heart rate occurred: cardiac index did not change significantly. In a further six greyhounds, SNP and TNP were alternately infused to induce and maintain a 30% reduction in arterial pressure for 30 min. Both drugs were short-acting, decreased systemic vascular resistance and caused tachycardia. Infusion of TNP produced lower plasma and red cell cyanide concentrations; SNP maintained hypotension with significantly less tachycardia. We conclude that there was no outstanding advantage of TNP over SNP when given as a short-term infusion in greyhounds.

Plasma catecholamine changes during cardiopulmonary bypass: a randomised double blind comparison of trimetaphan camsylate and sodium nitroprusside.

The effects of trimetaphan camsylate and sodium nitroprusside on the catecholamine response to cardiac surgery were compared in a randomised double blind study of twelve male patients undergoing elective myocardial revascularisation. The solutions were titrated to maintain a mean arterial pressure of 70-85 mm Hg before and after bypass and less than 70 mm Hg during bypass. The rise in plasma ad...

Zinc is a necessary micronutrient in plants whose deficiency can alter essential functions in plant metabolism. High concentrations of Zn can be potentially toxic to plants causing phytotoxicity by the formation of reactive oxygen species. On the other hand, sodium nitroprusside (SNP), a donor of nitric oxide (NO) can protect cells from oxidative damage produce by reactive oxygen species. In th...

In two groups of patients undergoing induced hypotension with sodium nitroprusside or trimetaphan blood concentrations of lactate, pyruvate and standard bicarbonate did not differ significantly between the groups. In the nine patients who received trimetaphan there was a progressive, but statistically non-significant, decrease in mean lactate. Nitroprusside (15 patients) was associated with a s...
