ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To investigate the effect of three kinds of drug with different mechanism, dexamethasone (Dex), aminoguanidin (AG) and amrinone (Amr) on oxygen utilization in endotoxic shock rabbits.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Thirty-five rabbits were randomly allocated into five groups operation, lipopolysaccharide (LPS), Dex, Amr and AG. The endotoxin shock was induced by intravenously injecting LPS (400 micro g/kg). The arterial blood gas, mixed venous blood gas and cardiac output were recorded at 30 min after the operation (T(0)), shock status (T), 1 - 6 h after the treatment (T(1)-T(6)). The oxygen delivery (DO(2)), oxygen consumption (VO(2)) and extraction ratio of oxygen (ERO(2)) were calculated.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>All the parameters in five groups showed no significant differences (P > 0.05) at T(0). Six hours after treatment, rabbits in Dex group presented with significantly improved DO(2) (12.4 +/- 3.1) ml/(kg.min), P < 0.01 and VO(2) (5.1 +/- 1.6) ml/(kg.min), P < 0.05 compared with DO(2) (8.1 +/- 2.4) ml/(kg.min) and VO(2) (2.7 +/- 1.0) ml/(kg.min) in LPS group. Rabbits in AG group showed significantly increased DO(2) (17.0 +/- 2.8) ml/(kg.min) (P < 0.01), (17.2 +/- 2.5) ml/(kg.min) (P < 0.05), compared with (12.2 +/- 2.6), (14.1 +/- 3.8) ml/(kg.min) in LPS group at T(1) and T(2), respectively, but there was no significant difference (11.2 +/- 1.7) ml/(kg.min) (P > 0.05) at T(6). The VO(2) increased significantly, (5.0 +/- 1.0) ml/(kg.min) (P < 0.01) compared with LPS group at T(6). The VO(2) of Amr group was significantly higher than LPS group at T(3) and T(4). At T(6), the DO(2) and VO(2) were (9.5 +/- 1.3) and (4.1 +/- 1.5) ml/(kg.min), respectively, but there was no significant difference compared with LPS group. There was no significant difference in ERO(2) among groups (P > 0.05).</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>The dexamethasone, aminoguanidin, amrinone can improve oxygen utilization in endotoxic shock rabbits, especially for dexamethasone and aminoguanidin.</p>
