[The propofol-fentanyl-pancuronium combination in aorto-coronary bypass. Experience and personal caseload].

The authors report the use of a total intravenous anaesthesia in CABG. An association of propofol-fentanyl-pancuronium with a bolus at induction, then with continuous perfusion was used. Hemodynamic and oxymetric data obtained from the right heart and radial artery samples show good hemodynamic stability during surgery. It is underlined that, in order to reduce possible hemodynamic changes it is very important to use, during the surgical procedure, the lowest drug concentration.
