The overwhelming number of cardiovascular research studies performed are in acutely prepared or anesthetized animal models, despite the fact that there are profound direct effects of anesthesia on cardiovascular function, but more importantly, anesthesia alters autonomic cardiovascular control and secondarily alters responses to common interventions, such as drugs. 4 Thus, it is not difficult to imagine how anesthesia may modify results and also in understanding the effects of drugs for translation to the clinics. A recent example occurred with a new drug that increases sarcomere contraction in the heart, a novel mechanism to improve cardiac performance. 5 Studies in chronically instrumented, conscious animals with heart failure found that this drug was superior to sympathomimetic amines because it improved myocardial function without an increase in myocardial oxygen consumption (MVO2). 6 Different results were reported in anesthetized animals, where the drug no longer had the salutary action on protecting MVO2, 6 which is most critical for success of any inotropic agents in patients with heart failure.
