| Research Abstract |
Dexmedetomidine is a centrally acting alpha2-adrenergic agonist and is used for sedation in the intensive care units. Although it has a minimal effect on respiratory function, severe bradycardia and sinus arrest are occasionally observed. The aim of the present study was to examine which of the direct effect on the heart (peripheral effect) or the central vagal activation is responsible for such side effects of medetomidine. To evaluate efferent vagal activity, acetylcholine was measured through a microdialysis fiber implanted into the myocardial interstitium of anesthetized rabbits. Intravenous medetomidine administration increased myocardial interstitial acetylcholine concentration, which was abolished by vagotomy. These results indicate that medetomidine centrally activates the vagal nerve and can cause bradycardia and, in severe cases, sinus arrest.
