ABSTRACT
Following surgical liver resection haemodynamic and metabolic impairment, potentially responsible for post-operative hepatic failure may occur. In this prospective, randomized study such impairments and the effect on them of continuous peri-operative infusion of dobutamine were examined. Twelve patients, scheduled for hepatectomy, were divided in two groups Group I was treated with an infusion of dobutamine 6 micrograms/kg/min from 10 minutes before the induction of anaesthesia till the fifth postoperative hour; Group II was considered as the control group. The main haemodynamic parameters, gastric pHi and serum lactate level were examined. No significant differences were detected in heart rate, parameters of pressure and SvO2. In both groups, during portal clamp, SVR increased while Cl and DO2 decreased with respect to basal and the other intra- and postoperative values. Gastric pHi decreased in both groups after portal clamp. These alterations were significantly lower in the group treated with dobutamine when compared with the control group. Serum lactate level increased in both groups. This increase was lower in Group I. Differences between groups were not statistically significant. In conclusion, during hepatectomy important haemodynamic and metabolic impairments occur. Dobutamine, by reducing such impairments, can be usefully employed in this kind of surgery.
