Objective: This investigation was performed to compare the effects of inhalation agents on microcirculation in coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) using orthogonal polarization spectral imaging. Design: This prospective and randomized study was performed in patients scheduled for CABG surgery from March through September 2010. Setting: Tertiary care university hospital. Participants: Thirty patients undergoing elective CABG. Interventions: Patients were assigned to sevoflurane, desflurane, or isoflurane. Measurements and Main Results: Orthogonal polarization spectral imaging was used to evaluate the sublingual microcirculation. Hemodynamic variables (heart rate, mean arterial pressure, central venous pressure, cardiac output, and pulmonary capillary wedge pressure), laboratory parameters (hematocrit, lactate, and potassium), and microcirculatory variables (total vascular density [TVD] [mm/mm2], microvascular flow index [MFI] [arbitrary units], perfused vessel density [PVD] [mm/mm2], and proportion of perfused vessels [PPV] [percentage] were obtained before induction, after induction, during cardiopulmonary bypass, at the end of surgery, and 24 hours after surgery. The greatest alterations in microcirculation parameters were found during cardiopulmonary bypass. In the sevoflurane group, TVD (14.7%), PVD (22%), PPV (5.97%, p < 0.05), and MFI (7.69%, p > 0.05) were decreased. In the isoflurane group, TVD (14.7%) and PVD (20.3%) were decreased, whereas PPV (1.69%) and MFI (17.99%) were increased (p < 0.05). In the desflurane group, there were no changes in TVD and PVD, but MFI (8.99%, p > 0.05) and PPV (1.48%, p < 0.05) were increased in the small vessels. These changes returned to their initial values 24 hours postoperatively. Conclusions: Sevoflurane had a negative effect on the microcirculation. Isoflurane decreased vascular density and increased flow. Desflurane produced stable effects on the microcirculation. These inhalation agents induced transient alterations in microvascular perfusion. © 2012 Elsevier Inc.
