ABSTRACT
Objective:To investigate the risk factors of acute kidney injury(AKI) combined with continuous renal replacement therapy(CRRT) after Stanford type A dissection under moderate hypothermia circulatory arrest(MHCA).Methods:From October 2017 to March 2020, all patients with Stanford type A dissection and total arch replacement surgery under MHCA were enrolled. According to whether receiving CRRT treatment, the patients were divided into CRRT group(49 cases) and control group(72 cases). Both tow groups chose the brain protection strategy of moderate hypothermia, the left common carotid artery and the innominate artery were perfused anteriorly. Relevant medical data was collected.Results:There was no statistical difference in age, sex, smoking history, and drinking history between the two groups of patients( P>0.10). There were statistical differences between the two groups in the diameter of the aortic sinus and whether Bentall surgery was performed at the same time( P≤0.05). On the 1st postoperative day, the serum creatinine(sCr) of the CRRT group was significantly higher than that of the control group[(214.04±79.51) μmol/L vs.(127.32±58.08) μmol/L]. The change trend of sCr was not obvious within 2 to 4 days after operation. The sCr of the control group was significantly lower than that of the CRRT group within 4 days after surgery[(264.20±111.76) μmol/L vs.(104.24±76.00) μmol/L]. The diameter of aortic sinus, combined with Bentall surgery, intraoperative red blood cell transfusion, intraoperative platelet transfusion, intraoperative autologous blood transfusion, intraoperative bleeding were positively correlated with whether CRRT was performed after surgery( P<0.10), while intraoperative plasma The amount of blood transfusion was negatively correlated with postoperative CRRT( P<0.05). Conclusion:The diameter of the aortic sinus before surgery, combined Bentall surgery, intraoperative blood transfusion products and intraoperative bleeding are risk factors for postoperative CRRT.
ABSTRACT
Objective Total aortic arch replacement and stented elephant trunk surgery is an important surgical method for acute type A aortic dissection, and the short, middle, long term curative effect has been recognized by more and more experts at home and abroad.Circulatory arrest was an independent risk factor for postoperative complications and mortality in patients with type A aortic dissection.The aim of this article is to observed the effection of a new technology to block aortic arch, whicn can shorten the circulatory arrest time to 2 minutes and avoid harm of circulatory arrest on patients.Methods From May 2016 to February 2017, 68 patients with acute type A aortic dissection were divided into the conventional group and the modified group.All the patients underwent total arch replacement and stented elephant trunk surgery.The rectal temperature of the conventional group was 25℃ and circulatory arrest time was 20 min.While the rectal temperature of the modified group was 28℃ and and circulatory arrest time was 2 min.Results In the conventional operation group, 3 patients died after operation while all the patients in the modified group were cured and discharged.There are no differences between the two groups in the time of cardiopulmonary bypass(CPB) and heart arrest time(P>0.05).There are Significant differences in CPB time, circulatory arrest time, postoperative awake time, intubation time, amount of blood used, the amount of drainage during the first two days after operation, the time staying in ICU and the postoperative time in hospital.And the modified group was much better.(P<0.05)Conclusion The results of new technology blocking aortic arch in the patients with acute type A aortic dissection are better than the conventional surgical approach during the perioperative period.This technology is simple and effective.It is worth promoting.
ABSTRACT
Objective To study the effect of retrograde perfusion through the inferior vena cava (IVC) during moderate hypothermic lower body circulatory arrest on malondialdehyde (MDA) content and superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity in the serum, liver and kidney of pigs. Methods Twenty healthy pigs were randomly divided into two groups: group A had moderate hypothermic lower body circulatory arrest for 90 min, group B had moderate hypothermic lower body circulatory arrest and retrograde perfusion through IVC at the same time. SOD activities and MDA contents in the serum, liver and kidney were analyzed before retrograde perfuston(T1), 1 h after circulatory arrest(T2), and 1 h (T3), 3h (T4), and 5 h (T5) after reperfusion. Results There were no significant differences in SOD activities and MDA contents in the serum, liver or kidney between the two groups at T1 (P<0.05). Serum MDA contents were increased and the SOD activities were decreased in both groups at T3, T4, and T5, with the changes in group B being significantly small than those in group A (P<0.05). MDA contents in the liver and kidney in group A were significantly higher and the SOD accivicies were significantly lower than those in group B at T2-T5 (P<0.05). Conclusion Retrograde perfusion with autologous blood through IVC can partly alleviate the ischemic-reperfusion injury of liver and kidney during moderate hypothermic lower body circulatory arrest in pigs, showing a protective effect on the hepatic and renal function.
