Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of this study is to confirm if myocardial protection effect can be obtained by intravenous administration of glutamine in patients undergoing aortic valve replacement with severe aortic stenosis (who are at high risk for ischemia-reperfusion injury). As a prospective double blinded randomized placebo-controlled trial, the investigators detect and compare the degree of myocardial damage(with CK-MB and Troponin T) and myocardial protection (through hsp 70 expression in atrial tissue), cardiovascular index, inflammatory reaction, and clinical manifestation.

Glutamine

Intravenous glutamine infusion perioperatively for 18 hours (8 hours before surgery and 10 hours after induction of anesthesia)

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

N(2)-L-Alanine L-Glutamine dipeptide

Intervention Type DRUG

:Intravenous infusion of N (2) -L-alanyl-L-glutamine(mixed with normal saline, ratio 1:1) at the dose of 0.25g/kg(body weight) for 8 hours before induction of anesthesia(rate=2.5\*weight/8 ml/h) and administration another 0.25g/kg(body weight) of N (2) -L-alanyl-L-glutamine(mixed with 8.5% amino acid solution, ratio 1:5) into the central vein for 10 hours after induction of anesthesia(rate=0.75\*weight ml/h)

Placebo

Group Type PLACEBO_COMPARATOR

placebo (0.9% NaCl (normal saline))
