[Behavior of hemodynamic and blood-gas parameters after intravenous salbutamol].

The haemodynamic effects of salbutamol were studied in 14 patients with chronic obstructive lung disease with a single dose of 100 and 200 gamma, administered by i.v. injection. The results of study revealed salbutamol intravenous injection significantly increases heart rate, cardiac index and decreases vascular systemic resistance. There was no significant change in blood gas tensions. This study indicates that salbutamol produces variation in preload and afterload by a direct action on vascular smooth muscle.

[Polygraphic study of systolic rates after intravenous administration of salbutamol].

The effects of salbutamol on the polygraphic pattern were studied in 10 patients with chronic obstructive lung disease. Salbutamol, administered by i.v. injection in a single dose of 100 gamma, caused an increase of heart rate, a decrease of PEP (by decrease in the TCI), a decrease of the Wessler's index and an increase of ejection fraction. These results suggest that salbutamol produces an improvement in cardiac function either by a direct inotropic action or by an afterload decrease.

[Echocardiographic assessment of left ventricular function after intravenous administration of salbutamol].

Changes in the main parameters of left ventricular function by comparison with the baselines were examined echocardiography in 11 patients after a single i.v. dose of salbutamol. The results suggest that salbutamol certainly has peripheral vascular effects leading to changes in ventricular volumes. The drug also appears to exert a positive intropic action, as shown by the changes it induced in EF and, more particularly VCF values.
