Isolated circulatory response to intravenous administration of the ACE inhibitor enalaprilat.

Abstract: The isolated vascular effects of intravenous administration of the angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor enalaprilat were investigated. Thirty male patients undergoing cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) were studied. According to a randomized sequence, 0.04 mg kg‐1 enalaprilat (low‐dose, n = 10), 0.08 mg kg‐1 (high‐dose, n = 10) enalaprilat or saline solution as placebo (control group, n = 10) was given as an i.v. bolus during CPB. Changes in mean arterial pressure (MAP) and venous reservoir (RV) of the extr… Show more

“…This contrasts with data from several other studies that indicate that ACE inhibition decreases blood pressure 25 or increases vasoconstrictor requirement during and after CPB 26,27 but not with data from others. 28 The lack of apparent effect of ACE inhibition on MAP and vasoconstrictor requirements may relate to the short duration ACEI was stopped in the No-ACEI group.…”

“…It is reasonable to surmise that use of angiotensin coverting enzyme inhibitor (ACEI) that lowers that serum level of angiotensin II and the use of angiotensin II receptor type 1 blocker (ARB) will have possible antithrombotic effect. Second, RAS inhibitors have been shown to increase blood flow to both capillary and venous system [21] . Since venous stasis is an important risk factor for VTE, protective effect of RAS inhibition can be explained by the improvement of blood rheology.…”
