Propofol-based versus fentanyl-isoflurane-based anesthesia for cardiac surgery.

abstract：:Although a wide variety of positive inotropic agents have been administered to cardiac surgery patients, few of them have been carefully studied in controlled clinical trials, in surgical patient populations. The limited data available suggest that one of the more widely used agents, calcium, may lack efficacy and pos...
