Interaction of isoflurane and cromakalim, a KATP channel opener, on coronary and systemic haemodynamics in chronically instrumented dogs

Background: Although isoflurane has been shown to cause coronary and systemic vasodilation through KATP channel activation, the interaction of KATP channel openers and isoflurane has not been fully investigated. The present study was carried out to determine the haemodynamic actions of cromakalim, a KATP channel opener, under the conscious state and during isoflurane anaesthesia in chronically instrumented dogs.
