Project description:Potassium-based depolarizing St Thomas' Hospital cardioplegic solution No 2 administered as intermittent, oxygenated blood is considered as a gold standard for myocardial protection during cardiac surgery. However, the alternative concept of polarizing arrest may have beneficial protective effects. We hypothesize that polarized arrest with esmolol/adenosine/magnesium (St Thomas' Hospital Polarizing cardioplegic solution) in cold, intermittent oxygenated blood offers comparable myocardial protection in a clinically relevant animal model.Twenty anaesthetized young pigs, 42 ± 2 (standard deviation) kg on standardized tepid cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) were randomized (10 per group) to depolarizing or polarizing cardiac arrest for 60 min with cardioplegia administered in the aortic root every 20 min as freshly mixed cold, intermittent, oxygenated blood. Global and local baseline and postoperative cardiac function 60, 120 and 180 min after myocardial reperfusion was evaluated with pressure-conductance catheter and strain by Tissue Doppler Imaging. Regional tissue blood flow, cleaved caspase-3 activity, GRK2 phosphorylation and mitochondrial function and ultrastructure were evaluated in myocardial tissue samples.Left ventricular function and general haemodynamics did not differ between groups before CPB. Cardiac asystole was obtained and maintained during aortic cross-clamping. Compared with baseline, heart rate was increased and left ventricular end-systolic and end-diastolic pressures decreased in both groups after weaning. Cardiac index, systolic pressure and radial peak systolic strain did not differ between groups. Contractility, evaluated as dP/dtmax, gradually increased from 120 to 180 min after declamping in animals with polarizing cardioplegia and was significantly higher, 1871 ± 160 (standard error) mmHg/s, compared with standard potassium-based cardioplegic arrest, 1351 ± 70 mmHg/s, after 180 min of reperfusion (P = 0.008). Radial peak ejection strain rate increased and the load-independent variable preload recruitable stroke work was increased with polarizing cardioplegia after 180 min, 64 ± 3 vs 54 ± 2 mmHg (P = 0.018), indicating better preserved left ventricular contractility with polarizing cardioplegia. Phosphorylation of GRK2 in myocardial tissue did not differ between groups. Fractional cytoplasmic volume in myocytes was reduced in hearts arrested with polarizing cardioplegia, indicating reduction of cytoplasmic oedema.Polarizing oxygenated blood cardioplegia with esmolol/adenosine/magnesium offers comparable myocardial protection and improves contractility compared with the standard potassium-based depolarizing blood cardioplegia.

Project description:ObjectivesWe have previously demonstrated beneficial cardiac protection with hypothermic polarizing cardioplegia compared to a hyperkalemic depolarizing cardioplegia. In this study, a porcine model of cardiopulmonary bypass was used to compare the protective effects of normothermic blood-based polarizing and depolarizing cardioplegia during cardiac arrest.MethodsThirteen pigs were randomized to receive either normothermic polarizing (n = 8) or depolarizing (n = 5) blood-based cardioplegia. After initiation of cardiopulmonary bypass, normothermic arrest (34°C, 60 min) was followed by 60 min of on-pump and 90 min of off-pump reperfusion. Primary outcome was myocardial injury measured as arterial myocardial creatine kinase concentration. Secondary outcome was haemodynamic function and the energy state of the hearts.ResultsDuring reperfusion, release of myocardial creatine kinase was comparable between groups (P = 0.36). In addition, most haemodynamic parameters showed comparable results between groups, but stroke volume (P = 0.03) was significantly lower in the polarizing group. Adenosine triphosphate levels were significantly (18.41 ± 3.86 vs 22.97 ± 2.73 nmol/mg; P = 0.03) lower in polarizing hearts, and the requirement for noradrenaline administration (P = 0.002) and temporary pacing (6 vs 0; P = 0.02) during reperfusion were significantly higher in polarizing hearts.ConclusionsUnder normothermic conditions, polarizing blood cardioplegia was associated with similar myocardial injury to depolarizing blood cardioplegia. Reduced haemodynamic and metabolic outcome and a higher need for temporary pacing with polarized arrest may be associated with the blood-based dilution of this solution.

Project description:BackgroundAlthough highly protective, cardiac surgery using cardioplegia and cardiopulmonary bypass (CP/CPB) subjects myocardium to hypothermic reversible ischemic injury that can impair cardiac function which results in a greatly enhanced risk of mortality. Acute changes in myocardial contractile activity are likely regulated via protein modifications. We performed the following study to determine changes in the protein profile of human myocardium following CP/CPB.Methods and resultsRight atrial appendage was collected from 8 male patients pre and post-CP/CPB. Atrial tissue lysates were subjected to 2-dimensional electrophoresis, total protein staining, gel averaging, and quantitative densitometry. Ten prominent spots regulated in response to CP/CPB were identified using mass spectrometry. Two hundred twenty-five and 256 protein spots were reliably detected in 2D-gels from pre- and post-CP/CPB patients, respectively. Five unique (ie, not detected post-CP/CPB) and 17 significantly increased spots were detected pre-CP/CPB. Thirty-four unique and 25 significantly increased spots were detected in the post-CP/CPB group. Identified proteins that changed after CP/CPB included: MLC-2a, ATP-synthase delta chain and Enoyl-CoenzymeA hydratase, glutathione-s-transferase omega, alpha-1-acid-glycoprotein, and phosphatidylethanolamine-binding protein.ConclusionsCardiac surgery results in multiple consistent changes in the human myocardial protein profile. CP/CPB modifies specific cytoskeletal, metabolic, and inflammatory proteins potentially involved in deleterious effects of CP/CPB.

Project description:Pulmonary dysfunction is among the most frequent complications to cardiac surgeries. Exposure of blood to the cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) circuit with subsequent lung ischemia-reperfusion leads to the production of inflammatory mediators and increases in microvascular permeability. The study aimed to elucidate histological, cellular, and metabolite changes following two lung protective regimens during CPB with Histidine-Tryptophan-Ketoglutarate (HTK) enriched or warm oxygenated blood pulmonary perfusion compared to standard regimen with no pulmonary perfusion. A total of 90 patients undergoing CPB were randomized to receiving HTK, oxygenated blood or standard regimen. Of these, bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) and lung tissue biopsies were obtained before and after CPB from 47 and 25 patients, respectively. Histopathological scores, BALF cell counts and metabolite screening were assessed. Multivariate and univariate analyses were performed. Profound histological, cellular, and metabolic changes were identified in all patients after CPB. Histological and cellular changes were similar in the three groups; however, some metabolite profiles were different in the HTK patients. While all patients presented an increase in inflammatory cells, metabolic acidosis, protease activity and oxidative stress, HTK patients seemed to be protected against severe acidosis, excessive fatty acid oxidation, and inflammation during ischemia-reperfusion. Additional studies are needed to confirm these findings.

Project description:INTRODUCTION:Modulating the stress response and perioperative factors can have a paramount impact on the neurodevelopmental outcome of infants who undergo cardiac surgery utilizing cardiopulmonary bypass. MATERIALS AND METHODS:In this single center prospective follow-up study, we evaluated the impact of three different anesthetic techniques on the neurodevelopmental outcomes of 19 children who previously underwent congenital cardiac surgery within their 1(st) year of life. Cases were done from May 2011 to December 2013. Children were assessed using the Stanford-Binet Intelligence Scales (5(th) edition). Multiple regression analysis was used to test different parental and perioperative factors that could significantly predict the different neurodevelopmental outcomes in the entire cohort of patients. RESULTS:When comparing the three groups regarding the major cognitive scores, a high-dose fentanyl (HDF) patients scored significantly higher than the low-dose fentanyl (LDF) + dexmedetomidine (DEX) (LDF + DEX) group in the quantitative reasoning scores (106 ± 22 vs. 82 ± 15 P = 0.046). The bispectral index (BIS) value at the end of surgery for the -LDF group was significantly higher than that in LDF + DEX group (P = 0.011). For the entire cohort, a strong correlation was seen between the standard verbal intelligence quotient (IQ) score and the baseline adrenocorticotropic hormone level, the interleukin-6 level at the end of surgery and the BIS value at the end of the procedure with an R(2) value of 0.67 and P < 0.04. There was an inverse correlation between the cardiac Intensive Care Unit length of stay and the full-scale IQ score (R = 0.4675 and P 0.027). CONCLUSIONS:Patients in the HDF group demonstrated overall higher neurodevelopmental scores, although it did not reach statistical significance except in fluid reasoning scores. Our results may point to a possible correlation between blunting the stress response and improvement of the neurodevelopmental outcome.

Project description:BackgroundDel Nido cardioplegia is widely used in adult cardiopulmonary bypass surgery and has a satisfying cardioprotective effect for about 90 minutes by single dose, but the effect in patients with coronary heart disease remains confused. The purpose of this study was to examine the cardioprotective effect of del Nido cardioplegia in adult multivessel coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB).MethodsThis retrospective comparative analysis included 124 consecutive patients undergoing isolated on-pump CABG performed by a single surgeon between January 2017 and December 2020. The demographic characteristics and medical history of the included patients were collected. The included patients were divided into two groups: a del Nido cardioplegia (DN) group and a conventional multidose blood cardioplegia (BC) group. Perioperative, intraoperative, and postoperative indicators and complications were compared.ResultsCompared with the BC group, CPB and aortic cross-clamp time were significantly shorter in the DN group. In the early postoperative period, the hemoglobin concentration in the DN group was significantly higher than that in the BC group (P<0.05).ConclusionsThis study demonstrated that the application of del Nido cardioplegia in adult on-pump CABG could lead to a significantly shorter aortic cross-clamp and CPB time, as well as a higher hemoglobin concentration in the early postoperative period. The myocardial protective effect of del Nido cardioplegia is not inferior to that of conventional blood perfusion in adult on-pump CABG.

Project description:Introduction: To our knowledge, methylprednisolone pharmacokinetics and plasma concentrations have not been comprehensively investigated in children with congenital heart disease undergoing cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass. It is unknown whether there is a significant influence of cardiopulmonary bypass on the plasma concentrations of methylprednisolone and whether this may be an explanation for the limited reported efficacy of steroid administration in cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass. Methods: The study was registered in the Dutch Trial Register (NTR3579; https://www.trialregister.nl/trial/3428). Methylprednisolone 30 mg/kg was administered as an intravenous bolus after induction of anesthesia. Methylprednisolone concentration was measured with liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry and analyzed using linear mixed-effects modeling. Results: Thirty-nine patients were included in the study, of which three were excluded. There was an acute decrease in observed methylprednisolone plasma concentration on initiation of cardiopulmonary bypass (median = 26.8%, range = 13.9-48.14%, p < 0.001). We found a lower intercept (p = 0.02), as well as a less steep slope of the model predicted methylprednisolone concentration vs. time curve for neonates (p = 0.048). A lower intercept (p = 0.01) and a less steep slope (p = 0.0024) if the volume of cell saver blood processed was larger than 91 ml/kg were also found. Discussion: We report similar methylprednisolone plasma concentrations as earlier studies performed in children undergoing cardiopulmonary bypass, and we confirmed the large interindividual variability in achieved methylprednisolone plasma concentrations with weight-based methylprednisolone administration. A larger volume of distribution and a lower clearance of methylprednisolone for neonates were suggested. The half-life of methylprednisolone in our study was calculated to be longer than 6 h for neonates, 4.7 h for infants, 3.6 h for preschool children and 4.7 h for school children. The possible influence of treatment of pulmonary hypertension with sildenafil and temperature needs to be investigated further.

Project description:ObjectiveMetabolism management plays an essential role during cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). There are different metabolic management devices integrated to heart-lung machines; the most commonly used and accepted metabolic target is indexed oxygen delivery (DO2i) (280 mL/min/m2) and cardiac index (CI) (2.4 L/min/m2), which can be managed independently or according to other metabolic parameters. Our objective was to compare lactate production during CPB procedures using different metabolic management: DO2i in relation to indexed oxygen extraction ratio (O2ERi) and CI in relation to mixed venous oxygen saturation (SvO2).MethodsData on 500 CPB procedures were retrospectively collected in a specialized regional tertiary cardiac surgery center in Italy between September and 2012 and November 2019. In group A, the DO2i with 280 mL/min/m2 target in relation to O2ERi 25% was used; in group B, CI with 2.4 L/min/m2 target in relation to SvO2 75% was used. During CPB, serial arterial blood gas analyses with blood lactate and glucose determinations were obtained. Hyperlactatemia (HL) was defined as a peak arterial blood lactate concentration >3 mmol/L. The postoperative outcome of patients with or without HL was compared.ResultsEight pre- and intraoperative factors were found to be significantly associated with peak blood lactate level during CPB at univariate analysis. HL (>3 mmol/L) was detected in 15 (6%) patients of group A and in 42 (16.8%) patients of group B (P = .022); hyperglycemia (>160 mg/dL) was found in 23 (9.2%) patients of group A and in 53 (21.2%) patients of group B (P = .038). Patients with HL during CPB had a significant increase in serum creatinine value, higher rate of prolonged mechanical ventilation time and intensive care unit stay. A cutoff of DO2i <270 mL/min/m2 in relation to O2ERi >35% in group A and a cutoff of CI <2.4 L/min/m2 in relation to SvO2 <65% in group B were found to have a positive predictive value of 80% and 75% for HL, respectively. A cutoff of DO2i >290 mL/min/m2 in relation to O2ERi 24% in group A and a cutoff of CI >2.4 L/min/m2 in relation to SvO2 >75% in group B were found to have a negative predictive value of 78% and 62% for HL, respectively.ConclusionsThis retrospective observational analysis showed that management of DO2i in relation to O2ERi was 16% more specific in terms of negative predictive value for HL during CPB compared with the use of CI in relation to SvO2. Group A reported a significant reduction in the incidence of intraoperative lactate peak, correlated with postoperative reduction of serum creatinine value, mechanical ventilation time, and intensive care unit stay, compared with group B.

Project description:BackgroundAND OBJECTIVES: The aim of this retrospective investigation was to study the relationships among chronic kidney disease, acute kidney injury (AKI), and potential benefits by post-bypass dexmedetomidine use in patients undergoing cardiac surgery.MethodsThe patient data were reviewed from the institutional Society of Thoracic Surgeons National Adult Cardiac Surgery Database after IRB approval. 1,133 patients were identified and divided into two groups: those who received dexmedetomidine or those who did not during the post-bypass period. The postoperative outcomes include the incidence of AKI, any complication and all cause of mortality.ResultsPost-bypass dexmedetomidine use was associated with significantly reduced the incidence of total AKI (26.1% vs. 33.75%; adjusted OR, 0.7033; 95%CI, 0.540 to 0.916; p=0.0089). In addition, post-bypass dexmedetomidine use was more likely to reduce the incidence of AKI in these patients with preoperative normal kidney function (Stage1; 32.8% to 22.8%; p=0.0233) and mild CKD (Stage 2; 32.8% to 24.7; p=0.0003) after cardiac surgery. Post-bypass infusion of dexmedetomidine was associated with significantly reduced incidence of any complication and 30-day mortalities.ConclusionsPost-bypass dexmedetomidine use is associated with a significant reduction in the incidence of AKI, especially mild AKI in patients with preoperative normal renal function and mild CKD undergoing cardiac surgery.
