Abstract
Data from animal studies show that isoflurane causes direct coronary dilation and can cause steal (1,2). Data from studies in humans indicate direct dilation, but whether or not isoflurane causes steal in humans, and whether or not steal is of clinical importance to the outcome of anesthesia is not yet clear, and will determine whether isoflurane is dangerous for the patient with coronary artery disease.
