Influence of dobutamine on hemodynamics and coronary blood flow in patients with and without coronary artery disease
Abstract
The influence of dobutamine on hemodynamics and coronary blood flow was studied in patients after routine cardiac catheterization. The data demonstrated that dobutamine is a powerful inotropic agent at a dose that has a relatively small influence on heart rate. In patients without coronary artery disease dobutamine greatly increased coronary arterial perfusion. In patients with severe coronary artery diseases dobutamine resulted in a much smaller increase in coronary perfusion, and the pattern of perfusion became more inhomogeneous. The results suggest that dobutamine has a potential inotropic value but raise concern about its influence on regional myocardial perfusion in patients with serious coronary artery disease.
