RESUMO
Objective:To compare the curative effects of different venous cannulas and drainage to improve patient's whole body oxygenation during the auxiliary process of venous-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO) in lung transplantation.Methods:From December 2016 to December 2019, 12 patients who were assisted by VA-ECMO in one lung transplantation in People's Hospital of Henan Province were selected as the research objects. According to the number of side holes of venous cannulas, they were divided into two groups: one group with few side holes and other group with multiple side holes. The differences in blood gas indexes among the right radial artery, left radial artery, and right internal jugular vein before and after assistance were compared, and the assistance effect was evaluated.Results:The arterial partial pressure of oxygen (PaO 2) of blood gas indexes of the right and left radial arteries in both groups were significantly higher than that before assistance [mmHg (1 mmHg = 0.133 kPa): right and left radial artery in few side holes group: 79.5±4.2 vs. 48.3±3.8 and 88.1±3.5 vs. 48.3±3.8; right and left radial artery in multiple side holes group: 67.7±5.9 vs. 48.7±3.2 and 84.0±3.8 vs. 48.7±3.2, all P < 0.05]. The arterial partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PaCO 2) of blood gas index was significantly lower than that before assistance (mmHg: 44.2±2.6 vs. 71.7±4.4 for the right radial artery and 44.7±1.4 vs. 71.7±4.4 for the left radial artery in the group with few side holes; 46.2±2.1 vs. 71.2±3.5 for the right radial artery and 44.1±1.9 vs. 71.2±3.5 for the left radial artery in the group with multiple side holes, all P < 0.05). The partial pressure of oxygen in venous blood (PvO 2) of blood gas index of ECMO system in the group with few side holes was significantly lower than that of the multiport side holes group (mmHg: 56.4±3.2 vs. 88.7±1.5, P < 0.01), and the partial pressure of carbon dioxide in venous blood (PvCO 2) was significantly higher than that of multiport side holes group (mmHg: 63.6±3.7 vs. 44.2±1.7, P < 0.01). Conclusions:When VA-ECMO is used in lung transplantation, the superior vena cava blood flow can be fully drained by using intravenous cannula with few side holes. It can effectively improve the oxygenation of the upper body of lung transplant patients, avoid the dilemma of hypoxemia in the upper body and hyperxemia in the lower body, provide more effective assistance to patients undergoing single lung transplantation, and is more meaningful for improving the oxygenation status of the whole body in patients undergoing single lung transplantation.
RESUMO
Objective:To summarize the clinical experience of changing the membranous pulmonary system during extracorporeal membrane oxygenation(ECMO) in infants after congenital heart disease opration with cardiopulmonary bypass.Methods:From January to September in 2019, 6 cases of congenital heart disease with cardio-pulmonary bypass in our hospital were analyzed retrospectively, whose membrane obstruction occurred during ECMO treatment and replaced successfully.The hemodynamics and blood gas before and after replacement of ECMO system were observed, and the experience was summarized.Results:Six patients(3 males and 3 females), aging from 1 to 3 months and weighing from 3.0 to 4.9 kg, were received VA-ECMO adjuvant therapy.The ECMO system replacement process was smooth and took 175-209 s. The hemodynamic of the children was stable.The ECMO support time was 134-249 h. After the improvement of cardiac systolic function, all children were successfully withdrawn and survived.Conclusion:The improved method of liquid replacement in ECMO system can make full use of the blood components in the original system and avoid the loss of blood tangible components.According to the plan of rapid replacement, the risk of replacement will not be increased.
RESUMO
Objective:To assess the value of urine heat-shock protein-70 (HSP-70) in the early diagnosis of acute kidney injury (AKI) after cardiac cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB).Methods:Patients with cardiopulmonary bypass from May 2018 to July 2018 in Henan Provincial People's Hospital were enrolled as subjects. Urine samples were collected before and after cardiopulmonary bypass at 0 h, 2 h, 4 h, 6 h, 8 h, 12 h, 24 h and 48 h. Patients were divided into AKI group and non-AKI group according to the Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes Guide. Urinary HSP-70, tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase-2 (TIMP-2) and insulin-like growth factor-binding protein 7 (IGFBP7) were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and urine neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) was determined by immunoturbidimetry. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was plotted to calculate the critical value, sensitivity and specificity of urine HSP-70, [TIMP-2]×[IGFBP7] and NGAL for the diagnosis of postoperative AKI after CPB.Results:A total of 45 patients were enrolled in the study. There were 24 cases in AKI group and 21 cases in non-AKI group. The level of urinary HSP-70, [TIMP-2]×[IGFBP7] and NGAL in AKI group were significantly higher than in the non-AKI group at each postoperative time point, with statistically significant differences (all P<0.05). The level of urinary HSP-70 in AKI group peaked at 2 h after CPB, which was significantly earlier than the peak time of urine [TIMP-2]×[IGFBP7] and urine NGAL (12 h after CBP and 4 h after CBP, respectively). Urinary HSP-70≥2.1 μg/L could predict postoperative AKI of CPB at 2 h after CPB, with the area under the curve ( AUC) of 1.00, the sensitivity of 100.0% and the specificity of 100.0%. Urinary [TIMP-2]×[IGFBP7]>19.1 μg 2/L 2 could predict postoperative AKI of CPB at 12 h after CPB with the AUC of 0.94, the sensitivity of 87.5%, and the specificity of 100.0%. Urinary NGAL>27.4 μg/L could predict postoperative AKI of CPB at 4 h after CPB with the AUC of 0.95, the sensitivity of 95.8%, and the specificity of 85.7%. The positive predictive value of urine HSP-70≥2.1 μg/L at 2 h after CPB was 100.0%, and the negative predictive value was 100.0%. Conclusions:The level of urinary HSP-70 increases earlier than that of urinary [TIMP-2]×[IGFBP7] and NGAL in patients with AKI after CPB. Clinical monitoring of urinary HSP-70 level contributes to early diagnosis of AKI.
