[Calcitonin gene-related peptide and human atrial natriuretic hormone levels in response to cardiac operation under high dose fentanyl anesthesia].
To elucidate a role of calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) in anesthesia and surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB), we measured CGRP which is reported to be a marker for fluid overload, simultaneously with HANP (human atrial natriuretic hormone) in 12 patients during high dose fentanyl anesthesia (50-70 microgram. kg-1). Plasma concentration of CGRP increased to 3 times of the value during preanesthetic phase at 30 min after initiation of CPB. A 3-fold increase compared with control in CGRP occurred 30 min after initiation of CPB. A 3-fold increase in HANP also occurred just before termination of CPB. But, there was no correlation between plasma levels of CGRP and HANP. The changes in CGRP did not relate with those of pulmonary capillary wedge pressure. The results of the present study suggest that the mechanism for the increase is unclear, and CGRP could be influenced during cardiac or coronary artery surgery using CPB.
