In order to investigate haemodynamic response and catecholamine release during anaesthesia with xenon, we conducted a study on 28 pigs which were allocated randomly to one of four groups: total i.v. anaesthesia with pentobarbitone and buprenorphine, and xenon anaesthesia with inspiratory concentrations of 30%, 50% or 70%, respectively, supplemented with pentobarbitone. Haemodynamic variables were measured using arterial and Swan Ganz catheters. Depth of anaesthesia was monitored using spectral edge frequency analysis. Plasma concentrations of dopamine, noradrenaline and adrenaline were measured by high pressure liquid chromatography. All haemodynamic variables and plasma concentrations of dopamine and noradrenaline remained within normal limits. Adrenaline concentrations were reduced significantly in all groups. Xenon anaesthesia was associated with a high degree of cardiovascular stability. Significant reduction in adrenaline concentrations at inspiratory xenon concentrations of 30% and 50% can be explained by analgesic effects of xenon below its MAC value.
