ABSTRACT
Objective:To observe the risk factors of acute renal injury(AKI) after coronary artery bypass grafting(CABG) and the influence of blood pressure on AKI.Methods:980 patients in CABG of Cardiology Department of TEDA International Cardiovascular Hospital were diagnosed with AKI according to the AKIN standard, with 706 males and 274 females, averaged(61.9±8.0)years old. Patients were divided into two groups according to whether AKI occurred: AKI group(86 cases) and non AKI group(894 cases). The baseline clinical data, operation related data were compared between the two groups. At the same time, according to the preoperative mean systolic blood pressure(SBP) level, LSP[mean systolic blood pressure<120 mmHg(1 mmHg=0.133 kPa), 374 cases], MSP(mean systolic blood pressure 120-140 mmHg, 481 cases) and HSP(mean systolic blood pressure≥140 mmHg, 125 cases) were classified as covariates, and the influencing factors of dependent variable AKI were analyzed by multivariate logistic regression.Results:The prevalence of AKI was 8.7%(86/980). Compared with non-AKI group, preoperative SBP[(129.8±13.8)mmHg vs.(124.4±13.3)mmHg, P=0.000], mean arterial pressure[(91.9±8.8)mmHg vs.(88.8±9.1)mmHg, P=0.004], and mean pulse pressure[(56.9±10.7)mmHg vs.(53.2±9.8)mmHg, P=0.001]were increased significantly. After adjusted for other risk factors, preoperative SBP elevation, hypertension history, cardiopulmonary bypass(CPB), use of intra-aortic-balloon-pump(IABP), secondary thoracotomy, preoperative diuresis, intraoperative blood transfusion and baseline low glomerular filtration rate(eGFR) were independent risk factors for AKI after CABG. Compared with LSP group, the relative risk of AKI after CABG in HSP group was 2.743(95% CI: 1.595-4.715). In patients with hypertension history, AKI in HSP group was significantly higher than that in LSP group(18.4% vs. 8.1%, P=0.001). However, the preoperative blood pressure level of patients who denied the history of hypertension had no effect on AKI. Conclusion:Preoperative SBP is a risk factor for AKI after CABG. The incidence of AKI after CABG can be significantly reduced by controlling SBP below 140 mmHg in patients with hypertension.
ABSTRACT
@#Objective To explore the predictive value of myocardial vitality in the improvement of cardiac function after coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) in patients with ischemic heart failure. Methods From December 8, 2015 to November 12, 2018, 46 patients with ischemic heart failure who underwent CABG operation alone were collected retrospectively. There were 41 males and 5 females with an average age of 60.4±8.0 years. The myocardial vitality and number of different types of myocardium were measured. The clinical data of patients in the left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) improvement group (≥5%) and non-improvement group (<5%) were compared and analyzed. The correlation between each index and LVEF improvement was analyzed by logistic multivariate regression analysis, and the boundary value of hibernating myocardium between LVEF improvement and non-improvement was obtained by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve. Results There were significant differences in the number of hibernating myocardium (15.0%±12.3% vs. 4.3%±4.5%, P=0.000), the number of normal myocardium (74.7%±13.7% vs. 82.4%±8.6%, P=0.027), and cardiac function classification (NYHA) development (−0.7±0.7 vs. −0.3±0.5, P=0.047) between the two groups, but there was no significant difference in other indexes between the two groups (P>0.05). Logistic regression analysis showed that the number of hibernating myocardium was an independent factor affecting the improvement of LVEF after CABG in patients with ischemic heart failure (OR=1.366, 95%CI 1.033-1.807, P=0.029). The ROC curve showed that the threshold value, sensitivity and specificity of hibernating myocardium were 15.0%, 43.8% and 100.0%, respectively. Conclusion The percentage of hibernating myocardium to left ventricular wall area ≥15.0% can accurately predict the improvement of LVEF in patients with ischemic heart failure after CABG. Preoperative myocardial vitality assessment has important diagnostic value in predicting the improvement of cardiac function in patients with ischemic heart failure after simple CABG.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To explore the effect of subclinical hypothyroidism(SCH) on complications after coronary artery bypass grafting(CABG).Methods:The data of CABG patients hospitalized in TEDA International Cardiovascular Disease Hospital from January 2016 to December 2017 were retrospectively analyzed. According to the thyroid function after admission, the patients were divided into normal thyroid function group(NC group, 814 cases, 0.27 mIU/L≤TSH≤4.2 mIU/L) and subclinical hypothyroidism group(SCH group, 106 cases, TSH>4.2 mIU/L). The preoperative clinical data, surgical conditions, recent complications and one-year bridge stenosis rate were compared between the two groups in male or female.Results:Compared with NC group, SCH group had more female patients(53.8% vs 24.4%, P=0.000), lower smoking rate (38.7% vs 58.0%, P=0.000). There was no statistical difference in other baseline data and postoperative complications( P>0.05). Subgroup analysis depending on gender showed that the incidence of respiratory tract infection increased in female patients with SCH(10.5% vs 3.5%, P=0.034) compared with those in NC group, there was no significant difference in male. The TSH level was an independent risk factor for respiratory tract infection in female patients( OR=1.307, 95% CI=1.110-1.539, P=0.001). Compared with the male patients, the prevalence of hypertension(84.2% vs. 67.3%, P=0.041), diabetes mellitus(45.6% vs 16.3%, P=0.001), hospitalization time in ICU(44 h vs. 42 h, P=0.003), acute renal failure(10.5% vs 0, P=0.019) and massive blood transfusion(8.8% vs 0, P=0.034)increased. Conclusion:SCH appears to influence the postoperative outcome for female patients by increasing the development of postoperative respiratory tract infection.
ABSTRACT
Objective To evaluate the effect of Levosimendan on the prognosis in patients with severe coronary heart disease after operation.Methods A total of 485 severe coronary disease patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting from Teda International Cardiovascular Hospital and the Cardiac Surgery Department of the First Affiliated Hospital of China Medical University from May 2014 to June 2016 were enrolled.Of them,45 cases receiving Levosimendan postoperatively were assigned to the Levosimendan group,and according to propensity score matching,another 45 cases were selected as the control group in this study.Clinical data before treatment had no difference between the groups (P ＞ 0.1).Postoperative prognosis was compared between the two groups.Results There were significant differences in heart rate,mean arterial pressure,central venous pressure,cardiac output and other hemodynamic parameters between the two groups 48h after operation.The heart ultrasound results showed that the left ventricular ejection fraction(IVEF) was increased [(0.53±0.12) ％vs.(0.46±0.09)％,t =2.594,P=0.002],the postoperative ventilation time was reduced [(46.8±11.3) h vs.(58.5±16.3) h,t=-2.031,P=0.045]and the onset of bowel sounds became early [(16.5±5.9) h vs.(18.7±10.1) h,t =1.592,P=0.039]in the levosimendan group than in the control group 48h after operation.The incidences of new-onset acute kidney injury(20 ％ and 40 ％,x2 =6.702,P =0.018),new-onset postoperative atrial fibrillation (15.6％ and 44.4％,x2 =6.156,P =0.023) and perioperative myocardial infarction(11.1 ％ and 33.3％,x2 =6.429,P =0.021) had significant differences between the two groups(P＜0.05),but there was no difference in ICU retention time,1-month mortality after operation,malignant arrhythmia incidence and auxiliary equipment use (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusions Levosimendan can improve the early prognosis of severe coronary disease patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting and reduce the occurrence of postoperative organ dysfunction.
ABSTRACT
Objective To analyze the risk factors and pathogen distribution of ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) in patients following coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG).Methods The clinical data of 1414 patients undergoing CABG in Teda International Cardiovascular Hospital from June 2014 to June 2016 were retrospectively analyzed .The VAP developed following CABG in 42 patients ( VAP group ) and not occurred in 1372 patients ( non-VAP group) .Multivariate logistic regression was used to analyze the risk factors of VAP in patients after CABG , and the microbial culture and drug sensitivity test were performed in VAP patients.Results The incidence rate of VAP after CABG was 2.97％ (42/1414).Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that history of smoking ( OR =2.216, 95％ CI 1.018 -4.825, P <0.05), mechanical ventilation time >48 h (OR=7.457, 95％ CI 3.443-16.161, P<0.01), LVEF<40％(OR=3.524 , 95％ CI 1.203-10.325, P<0.05) and postoperative acute kidney injury (OR=16.239, 95％ CI 7.551 -34.924, P <0.01) were independent risk factors for VAP in patients after CABG.A total of 42 pathogen strains were detected in 42 patients with VAP, including 37 strains of Gram-negative bacteria, 2 strains of Gram-positive bacteria, and 3 strains of fungus.Gram-negative bacteria mainly were Klebsiella pneumoniae subspecies ( n =23, 54.76％) and Burkholderia cepacia ( n =6, 14.27％);the Gram-positive bacteria were Staphylococcus aureus ( n =2, 4.76％);the fungus was Candida albicans ( n =3, 7.14％).Klebsiella pneumoniae was sensitive to many antibiotics;and the resistance rate to amikacin , aztreonam , meropenem , and levofloxacin was <10％, the resistance rate to ceftazidime and piperacillin was <25％. Burkholderia cepacia was naturally resistant to amikacin , ampicillin, aztreonam, cefazolin, gentamicin and sulfamethoxazole .Conclusion The incidence of VAP was higher in patients after CABG , and the involved pathogens were mainly Gram-negative bacteria .Clinically , it is necessary to take necessary measures to prevent and treat VAP in order to improve the prognosis of patients undergoing CABG .
