Is sevoflurane anesthesia safe for maintaining hemodynamics in patients with cardiomyopathy undergoing surgery?
Sevoflurane can be safely used as a volatile anesthetic in patients with hypertrophic or dilated cardiomyopathy when combined with appropriate hemodynamic management.
Answers are grounded in this paper and cite their sources.
May support sevoflurane consideration in cardiomyopathy surgery; hypothesis-generating and should not yet change practice.

KOKAWA et al. (1995) conducted a case report in Cardiomyopathy (n=6). Sevoflurane anesthesia was evaluated on Aggravation of preexisting arrhythmia. Sevoflurane anesthesia maintained hemodynamic stability without aggravating preexisting arrhythmias in six patients with cardiomyopathy undergoing surgery.
