Gastrointestinal complications after the termination of cardiopulmonary bypass are uncommon; however, they can lead to serious consequences. We encountered an unusual case of an 11-month-old infant who developed gross abdominal distention, leading to ventilatory and haemodynamic embarrassment following separation from the cardiopulmonary bypass. This presumably was a severe manifestation of the inflammatory response observed with extracorporeal circulation, which manifested as bowel oedema and w ...[more]

Project description:Background Left atrial (LA) decompression on extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) can reduce left ventricular distension, allowing myocardial rest and recovery, and protect from lung injury secondary to cardiogenic pulmonary edema. However, clinical benefits remain unknown. We sought to evaluate the association between LA decompression and in-hospital adverse outcome (mortality, transplant on ECMO, or conversion to ventricular assist device) in patients who failed to wean from cardiopulmonary bypass using a propensity score to adjust for baseline differences. Methods and Results Children (aged <18 years) with biventricular physiology supported with ECMO for failure to wean from cardiopulmonary bypass after cardiac surgery from 2000 through 2016, reported to the ELSO (Extracorporeal Life Support Organization) Registry, were included. Inverse probability of treatment weighted logistic regression was used to test the association between LA decompression and in-hospital adverse outcomes. Of the 2915 patients supported with venoarterial ECMO for failure to wean from cardiopulmonary bypass, 1508 had biventricular physiology and 279 (18%) underwent LA decompression (LA+). Genetic and congenital abnormalities (P=0.001) and pulmonary hypertension (P=0.010) were less frequent and baseline arrhythmias (P=0.022) were more frequent in LA+ patients. LA+ patients had longer pre-ECMO mechanical ventilation and CBP time (P<0.001), and used aortic cross-clamp (P=0.001) more frequently. Covariates were well balanced between the propensity-weighted cohorts. In-hospital adverse outcomes occurred in 47% of LA+ patients and 51% of the others. Weighted multivariate logistic regression showed LA decompression to be protective for in-hospital adverse outcomes (adjusted odds ratio, 0.775 [95% CI, 0.644-0.932]). Conclusions LA decompression independently decreased the risk of in-hospital adverse outcome in pediatric venoarterial ECMO patients who failed to wean from cardiopulmonary bypass, suggesting that these patients may benefit from LA decompression.

Project description:OBJECTIVE:The purpose of this study was to examine the isovolumetric distribution kinetics of crystalloid fluid during cardiopulmonary bypass. METHODS:Ten patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting participated in this prospective observational study. The blood hemoglobin and the serum albumin and sodium concentrations were measured repeatedly during the distribution of priming solution (Ringer's acetate 1470 ml and mannitol 15% 200 ml) and initial cardioplegia. The rate of crystalloid fluid distribution was calculated based on 3-min Hb changes. The preoperative blood volume was extrapolated from the marked hemodilution occurring during the onset of cardiopulmonary bypass. Clinicaltrials.gov: NCT01115166. RESULTS:The distribution half-time of Ringer's acetate averaged 8 minutes, corresponding to a transcapillary escape rate of 0.38 ml/kg/min. The intravascular albumin mass increased by 5.4% according to mass balance calculations. The preoperative blood volume, as extrapolated from the drop in hemoglobin concentration by 32% (mean) at the beginning of cardiopulmonary bypass, was 0.6-1.2 L less than that estimated by anthropometric methods (p<0.02). The mass balance of sodium indicated a translocation from the intracellular to the extracellular fluid space in 8 of the 10 patients, with a median volume of 236 ml. CONCLUSIONS:The distribution half-time of Ringer's solution during isovolumetric cardiopulmonary bypass was 8 minutes, which is the same as for crystalloid fluid infusions in healthy subjects. The intravascular albumin mass increased. Most patients were hypovolemic prior to the start of anesthesia. Intracellular edema did not occur.

Project description:Quantitative and qualitative differences in the hemostatic systems exist between neonates and adults, including the presence of "fetal" fibrinogen, a qualitatively dysfunctional form of fibrinogen that exists until 1 yr of age. The consequences of "fetal" fibrinogen on clot structure in neonates, particularly in the context of surgery-associated bleeding, have not been well characterized. Here, the authors examine the sequential changes in clotting components and resultant clot structure in a small sample of neonates undergoing cardiac surgery and cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB).Blood samples were collected from neonates (n = 10) before surgery, immediately after CPB, and after the transfusion of cryoprecipitate (i.e., adult fibrinogen component). Clots were formed from patient samples or purified neonatal and adult fibrinogen. Clot structure was analyzed using confocal microscopy.Clots formed from plasma obtained after CPB and after transfusion were more porous than baseline clots. Analysis of clots formed from purified neonatal and adult fibrinogen demonstrated that at equivalent fibrinogen concentrations, neonatal clots lack three-dimensional structure, whereas adult clots were denser with significant three-dimensional structure. Clots formed from a combination of purified neonatal and adult fibrinogen were less homogenous than those formed from either purified adult or neonatal fibrinogen.The results of this study confirm that significant differences exist in clot structure between neonates and adults and that neonatal and adult fibrinogen may not integrate well. These findings suggest that differential treatment strategies for neonates should be pursued to reduce the demonstrated morbidity of blood product transfusion.

Project description:Essentials Heparin-protamine balance (HPB) modulates bleeding after neonatal cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). HPB was examined in 44 neonates undergoing CPB. Post-operative bleeding occurred in 36% and heparin rebound in 73%. Thrombin-initiated fibrin clot kinetic assay and partial thromboplastin time best assessed HPB.SummaryBackground Neonates undergoing cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) are at risk of excessive bleeding. Blood is anticoagulated with heparin during CPB. Heparin activity is reversed with protamine at the end of CPB. Paradoxically, protamine also inhibits blood coagulation when it is dosed in excess of heparin. Objectives To evaluate heparin-protamine balance in neonates undergoing CPB by using research and clinical assays, and to determine its association with postoperative bleeding. Patients/Methods Neonates undergoing CPB in the first 30 days of life were studied. Blood samples were obtained during and after surgery. Heparin-protamine balance was assessed with calibrated automated thrombography, thrombin-initiated fibrin clot kinetic assay (TFCK), activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT), anti-FXa activity, and thromboelastometry. Excessive postoperative bleeding was determined by measurement of chest tube output or the development of cardiac tamponade. Results and Conclusions Of 44 neonates enrolled, 16 (36%) had excessive postoperative bleeding. The TFCK value was increased. By heparin in neonatal blood samples, but was only minimally altered by excess protamine. Therefore, it reliably measured heparin in samples containing a wide range of heparin and protamine concentrations. The APTT most closely correlated with TFCK results, whereas anti-FXa and thromboelastometry assays were less correlative. The TFCK and APTT assay also consistently detected postoperative heparin rebound, providing an important continued role for these long-established coagulation tests in the management of postoperative bleeding in neonates requiring cardiac surgical repair. None of the coagulation tests predicted the neonates who experienced postoperative bleeding, reflecting the multifactorial causes of bleeding in this population.

Project description:ObjectivesThe study objectives were to describe the incidence, risk factors, and outcomes of acute kidney injury after cardiopulmonary bypass in Jamaica.MethodWe performed a review of the medical records of adult patients (aged ≥ 18 years) with no prior dialysis requirement undergoing cardiopulmonary bypass at the University Hospital of the West Indies, Mona, between January 1, 2016, and June 30, 2019. Demographic, preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative data were abstracted. Acute kidney injury was defined using Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes criteria. The primary outcomes were acute kidney injury incidence and all-cause 30-day mortality. Multivariable logistic regression and Cox proportional analyses were used to examine the association between the acute kidney injury risk factors and the primary outcome.ResultsData for 210 patients (58% men, mean age 58.1 ± 12.9 years) were analyzed. Acute kidney injury occurred in 80 patients (38.1%), 44% with Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes I, 33% with Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes II, and 24% with Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes III. From multivariable logistic regression models, European System for Cardiac Operative Risk Evaluation II (odds ratio, 1.19; 95% confidence interval, 1.01-1.39 per unit), bypass time (odds ratio, 1.94; 95% confidence interval, 1.40-2.67 per hour), perioperative red cell transfusion (odds ratio, 3.03; 95% confidence interval, 1.36-6.76), and postoperative neutrophil lymphocyte ratio (odds ratio, 1.65; 95% confidence interval, 1.01-2.68 per 10-unit difference) were positively associated with acute kidney injury. Acute kidney injury resulted in greater median hospital stay (18 vs 11 days, P < .001) and intensive care unit stay (5 vs 3 days, P < .001), and an 8-fold increase in 30-day mortality (hazard ratio, 8.15; 95% confidence interval, 2.76-24.06, P < .001).ConclusionsAcute kidney injury after cardiopulmonary bypass surgery occurs frequently in Jamaica and results in poor short-term outcomes. Further studies coupled with quality interventions to reduce the mortality of those with acute kidney injury are needed in the Caribbean.

Project description:BackgroundMicrocirculatory perfusion disturbances are associated with increased morbidity and mortality in patients undergoing cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). Technological advancements made it possible to monitor sublingual microcirculatory perfusion over time. The goal of this review is to provide an overview of the course of alterations in sublingual microcirculatory perfusion following CPB. The secondary goal is to identify which parameter of sublingual microcirculatory perfusion is most profoundly affected by CPB.MethodsPubMed and Embase databases were systematically searched according to PRISMA guidelines and as registered in PROSPERO. Studies that reported sublingual microcirculatory perfusion measurements before and after onset of CPB in adult patients undergoing cardiac surgery were included. The primary outcome was sublingual microcirculatory perfusion, represented by functional capillary density (FCD), perfused vessel density (PVD), total vessel density (TVD), proportion of perfused vessels (PPV), and microvascular flow index (MFI).ResultsThe search identified 277 studies, of which 19 fulfilled all eligibility criteria. Initiation of CPB had a profound effect on FCD, PVD, or PPV. Seventeen studies (89%) reported one or more of these parameters, and in 11 of those studies (65%), there was a significant decrease in these parameters during cardiac surgery; the other 6 studies (35%) reported no effect. In 29% of the studies, FCD, PVD, or PPV normalized by the end of cardiac surgery, and in 24% percent of the studies, this effect lasted at least 24?h. There was no clear effect of CPB on TVD and a mixed effect on MFI.ConclusionCPB during cardiac surgery impaired sublingual microcirculatory perfusion as reflected by reduced FCD, PVD, and PPV. Four studies reported this effect at least 24?h after surgery. Further research is warranted to conclude on the duration of CPB-induced microcirculatory perfusion disturbances and the relationship with clinical outcome.Trial registrationPROSPERO, CRD42019127798.

Project description:Cardiopulmonary bypass triggers systemic inflammation, resulting in lung injury, and frequently leads to prolonged mechanical ventilation. Biomarkers of systemic inflammation are required to predict the risk of such complications. We hypothesize that specific serum proteins can be used as biomarkers to predict the severity of lung injury following cardiac surgery.DesignRetrospective chart review study.SettingClinical variables were collected and used in conjuncture with unbiased proteomic analysis using mass spectrometry that was performed on frozen plasma samples from a study group (patients with mechanical ventilation > 48 hr post surgery) and a control group (patients with mechanical ventilation < 48 hr post surgery).SubjectsSubjects included were infants who underwent cardiac surgery with similar complexity (Society of Thoracic Surgeons-European Association for Cardiothoracic Surgery 3 or 4) using cardiopulmonary bypass. Patients in both groups were matched for their weight, age, and duration of cardiopulmonary bypass.InterventionNone.Measurements and main resultsFour-hundred eighty-three proteins were identified (99% minimum confidence and two peptides minimum, protein false discovery rate 0.1%) on proteomic analysis of four control and four study patients at precardiopulmonary bypass, 0, and 48 hours postcardiopulmonary bypass samples. Thirty-six of 178 proteins were significantly different (≥ 1.5-fold; p < 0.05) at precardiopulmonary bypass (top increased: tenascin; top decreased: tetranectin), 18 of 140 proteins at 0 hour (top increased: hemoglobin beta; top decreased: C8 beta), and 25 of 166 proteins at 48 hours post surgery (top increased: proteoglycan 4; top decreased: galectin-3-binding protein). The top pathway involved cytoskeleton remodeling. Other pathways involved immune response and blood coagulation. Proteoglycan 4 was validated by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay in a different set of samples (n = 20/group; mean ± sd: 128 ± 67 vs 195 ± 160 ng/mL) (p = 0.037).ConclusionsMultiple proteomic biomarkers were associated with worse respiratory outcomes. Precardiopulmonary bypass biomarkers might indicate risk factors (e.g., abnormalities of coagulation), whereas those identified at 0 hour and post cardiopulmonary bypass may reflect mechanisms of ongoing pathobiology.
