| Abstract | BACKGROUND: Intracisternal dexmedetomidine (Dex) attenuates cardiac dysfunction in rats with intracranial hypertension (ICH). However, the effects of IV Dex on cardiac function and lung permeability during ICH have not been evaluated. We tested the hypothesis that IV Dex attenuates hemodynamic changes and decreases lung permeability induced by ICH in rats. METHODS: Halothane-anesthetized and mechanically ventilated rats were divided into four groups. In two groups, a subdural balloon catheter was inflated for 60 s to produce ICH. Arterial blood gas analysis was performed before and 30 min after ICH. Mean arterial blood pressure, heart rate (HR) and intracranial pressure were monitored for 30 min. The Dex group (n = 8) received IV Dex 80 microg/kg, followed by 6 microg.kg(-1).min(-1) (40 microg/mL) for 10 min and the control group (n = 8) received IV saline 2 mL/kg, followed by at 0.15 mL.kg(-1).min(-1) for 10 min. Surgery was performed without ICH with Dex (Sham-Dex group, n = 5) and without Dex (Sham-control, n = 5). In all groups, pulmonary permeability was measured using a modification of the Evans blue dye extravasation technique. IV Evans blue dye 20 mg/kg was administered 2 h before being killed and Evans blue dye in plasma and lung tissue was quantified by dual-wavelength spectrophotometric analysis. RESULTS: There were no significant differences in basal arterial blood pressure, HR, and Pao(2) among groups. In the control group, ICH resulted in transient increases in mean arterial blood pressure and HR, followed by a rapid decline and a plateau. In the Dex group, mean arterial blood pressure showed a transient increase and subsequent, rapid decrease to baseline, whereas HR did not change during ICH. Pao2 was higher in the Dex group than in the control group after ICH [138 (127-169) vs 78 (59-124) mm Hg, median (range), P < 0.01]. The pulmonary permeability index was lower in the Dex group than the control group [430 (182-450) vs 570 (427-1170), P < 0.01]. It was however, higher in the Sham-Dex group than the Sham-Control group [25 (24-35) vs 6 (4-7), P < 0.01]. CONCLUSIONS: Prophylactic IV Dex decreases lung permeability as well as hemodynamic changes induced by ICH in rats. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
