title: [Experience with epidural anesthesia during myocardial revascularization operations].
abstract: The paper presents the results of 213 myocardial revascularization using epidural anesthesia. The used anesthesiological protocol combining intravenous proforol sedation and epidural naropine block proved to be effective and safe and ensured adequate anesthesia that made possible myocardial revascularization both without using extracorporeal circulation (transmyocardial laser revascularization, mini-invasive myocardial revascularization) and with complex repairs of the geometry of the left ventricle and cardiac valvular apparatus and provides a means for the activation of patients and extubation on the operating table in the absence of surgical complications, hemorrhages, and extracorporeal circulation procedures even after reconstructive surgery.
