ABSTRACT
Objective: To determine the protective effect of zero-balanced ultraifltration and modiifed ultraifltration on infants’ pulmonary function atfer cardiac surgery. Methods: Sixty infants with congenital heart diseases were randomly divided into 3 groups: a zero-balanced ultraifltration group (Z group), a modiifed ultraifltration group (M group) and a zero-balanced ultraifltrationwith modified ultrafiltration group (Z+M group). Oxygenation index (OI), difference of alveoli-arterial oxygen pressure (P(A-α)O2), static lung compliance (Cstat), and airway resistance (Raw) were measured before caridopulmonary bypass (CPB, T1), 20 minutes atfer the CPB (T2), 2 h atfer the operation (T3), 6 h atfer the operation (T4) and 12 h atfer the operation (T5). hTe time of mechanical ventilation was also monitored. Results:Atfer the CPB, OI and Cstat in all groups decreased signiifcantly, while Raw and P(A-α)O2 increased signiifcantly. At T3, T4 and T5, OI and Cstat in the Z+M group were signiifcantly higher than those in the Z group and the M group (P<0.05), Raw andP(A-α)O2 in the Z+M group were signiifcantly lower than those in the Z group and the M group (P<0.05). hTe ventilation time in the Z+M group was signiifcantly shorter than that in the Z group and the M group (P<0.05). Conclusion:Zero-balanced ultrafiltration and modified ultrafiltration can effectively promote the pulmonary function atfer cardiac surgery in infants.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To compare the clinical effects of high volume zero-balanced ultraifltration (ZBUF) with different replacement lfuid in infant patients. Methods: A total of 40 infant patients who received aortic coarctation with deep hypothermic circulatory arrest operation in our hospital from 2012-11 to 2014-02 were summarized. The patients were randomized into 2 groups, Group A, the patients had ZBUF with plasmalyte A, n=21 and Group B, the patients had ZBUF with modiifed replacement lfuid n=19. All patients received ZBUF (15-20) ml/kg during re-warming period until the temperature reached 34°C at rectum. Blood gas analysis were conducted at 4 time points as T1 (before CPB), T2 (open ascending aorta and 5 min after calcium perfusion), T3 (ifnishing ZBUF) and T4 (end of CPB). The intra-operative CPB time and the post-operative recovery with the complication were recorded in all patients. Results: For blood gas analysis, the calcium concentration was higher in Group B than that in Group A at T3 time point, P0.05. The other indexes were similar between 2 groups, P>0.05 and the post-operative recovery was similar between 2 groups, P>0.05. Conclusion: ZBUF with modiifed replacement lfuid could avoid decreased calcium concentration and acidosis, therefore, provide a relative stable homeostasis in infant patients.
