Article Synopsis
- - The study investigates the effects of lipid emulsions, specifically Intralipid® and Lipofundin® MCT/LCT, on heart function and calcium levels in heart cells, particularly in the context of local anesthetic-induced cardiac toxicity.
- - Results show that Lipofundin® MCT/LCT significantly improves left ventricular pressure and increases intracellular calcium more effectively than Intralipid®, indicating a stronger positive inotropic effect.
- - The different impacts of these lipid emulsions on heart performance can be attributed to their specific triglyceride makeup, suggesting that higher intracellular calcium levels contribute to their effectiveness.
