Summary
Pharmacologic preconditioning by volatile anesthetics may depend on the mode of
administration. The researchers hypothesize that a continuous administration in patients
scheduled for CABG surgery prebypass will be less effective in terms of attenuating
myocardial cell damage compared to a repetitive administration with a double wash in/wash out
schedule. A control group will receive propofol as their primary anesthetic.
