Propranolol binding in plasma during cardiopulmonary bypass. 1979

M Wood, and D G Shand, and A J Wood

The effect of cardiopulmonary bypass on the plasma binding of propranolol was examined in seven patients. The fraction of propranolol free in plasma doubled, increasing from 6.6 to 13.5 per cent (P less than 0.001) following the administration of heparin, 400 IU/kg. Once cardiopulmonary bypass was concluded and protamine, 8 mg/kg, given, the free fraction decreased from 13.4 to 8.7 per cent (P less than 0.005). There was a further significant decrease to 6.5 per cent over the next 3.1 hours (SE +/- 0.3). Those alterations in the free fraction, which would result in more drug being available for binding to receptor sites and for exerting its pharmacologic effect, were due principally to the changes in free fatty acid levels produced by heparin and protamine, but also to the hemodilution produced by the pump prime.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D011433 Propranolol A widely used non-cardioselective beta-adrenergic antagonist. Propranolol has been used for MYOCARDIAL INFARCTION; ARRHYTHMIA; ANGINA PECTORIS; HYPERTENSION; HYPERTHYROIDISM; MIGRAINE; PHEOCHROMOCYTOMA; and ANXIETY but adverse effects instigate replacement by newer drugs.

D011479 Protamines A group of simple proteins that yield basic amino acids on hydrolysis and that occur combined with nucleic acid in the sperm of fish. Protamines contain very few kinds of amino acids. Protamine sulfate combines with heparin to form a stable inactive complex; it is used to neutralize the anticoagulant action of heparin in the treatment of heparin overdose.

D011485 Protein Binding The process in which substances, either endogenous or exogenous, bind to proteins, peptides, enzymes, protein precursors, or allied compounds. Specific protein-binding measures are often used as assays in diagnostic assessments. Plasma Protein Binding Capacity,Binding, Protein
D002315 Cardiopulmonary Bypass Diversion of the flow of blood from the entrance of the right atrium directly to the aorta (or femoral artery) via an oxygenator thus bypassing both the heart and lungs.

D006400 Hematocrit The volume of packed RED BLOOD CELLS in a blood specimen. The volume is measured by centrifugation in a tube with graduated markings, or with automated blood cell counters. It is an indicator of erythrocyte status in disease. For example, ANEMIA shows a low value; POLYCYTHEMIA, a high value.

D006493 Heparin A highly acidic mucopolysaccharide formed of equal parts of sulfated D-glucosamine and D-glucuronic acid with sulfaminic bridges. The molecular weight ranges from six to twenty thousand. Heparin occurs in and is obtained from liver, lung, mast cells, etc., of vertebrates. Its function is unknown, but it is used to prevent blood clotting in vivo and vitro, in the form of many different salts.
