Background: The effects of anesthetic drugs on myocardial cells have been a subject of research for the last 50 years. The clinical benefits of halogenated agents, particularly sevoflurane, have been demonstrated in cardiac surgery patients. These benefits are due to the action of different enzymes and a variety of molecular pathways mediated by the action of small noncoding RNAs (sRNA) such as microRNAs (miRNAs).

Objectives: In this study, we investigated whether cardioprotective properties of sevoflurane were expressed in patients with rheumatic heart disease undergoing heart valve surgery under cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB).
Methods: Fifty patients with rheumatic heart disease undergoing heart valve surgery under CPB were randomly assigned to receive total anesthesia with sevoflurane or propofol during surgery. Except for this, anesthetic and surgical management was the same in all patients.

Remote ischemic preconditioning (RIPC) reduces ischemia-reperfusion injury in aortocoronary bypass surgery, potentially via extracellular vesicles (EVs) and their micro-RNA content. Clinical data implicate that propofol might inhibit the cardioprotective RIPC effect. This prospective, randomized study investigated the influence of different anesthetic regimes on RIPC efficacy and EV micro-RNA signatures.

This review assesses the efficacy of inhalation anesthetics and propofol in cardiac surgery, primarily focusing on their impact on myocardial protection and subsequent clinical outcomes. The review provides a concise summary of the current scientific information regarding the protective efects of inhalation anesthetics and propofol, particularly in the context of ischemia-reperfusion injury during cardiac surgery. The review delves into the mechanisms of action and discusses clinical studies comparing the 2 anesthetic strategies regarding mortality, complication rates, and length of hospital stay.

Purpose: The study aims to assess the effects of dexmedetomidine (Dex) pretreatment on patients during cardiac valve replacement under cardiopulmonary bypass.
Methods: For patients in the Dex group (n = 52), 0.5 μg/kg Dex was given before anesthesia induction, followed by 0.
