Preface

Recently, many studies have shown a decrease in myocardial damage in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass surgery using an anaesthetic halogenated agent instead of propofol.

The basis for this protective effect on myocardium is at the mechanisms of preconditioning and post conditioning of halogenated agents. Both are related to the benefits of prior or subsequent administration of the drug (a halogenated anaesthetic agent) for myocardial cells, having very similar effects. It will be shown how this organic protection works and the clinical effects of halogenated at the postoperative period.

This issue will be one of the most important clinical points at anaesthesia and critical care, thus replacing the concept of anaesthesia from hypnosis to the therapeutic area.
