The Effects of Chemotherapeutic Agents on Renal Function during Continuous Hyperthermic Peritoneal Perfusion / 대한구급학회지

BACKGROUND: Continuous hyperthermic peritoneal perfusion (CHPP) has been introduced to improve the survival of the advanced cancer patients. It is a technique that allows uniform delivery of cytotoxic agents and heat to the peritoneal surface. However CHPP - induced acute changes of body temperature and intraabdominal pressure could produce various abnormal physiologic responses, especially hypoperfusion and hypoxia. These factors may further contribute to the renal dysfunction. Moreover, transperitoneal absorption of drugs resulting in systemic toxicity and certain anticancer drugs have an inherent nephrotoxicity. The aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of anticancer drugs on the kidney in the ovarian cancer patients after CHPP. METHODS: CHPP with anticancer agents in warm saline was performed in 54 patients with cancer of the ovary at temperature 47 degrees C for 90 minutes under general anesthesia. Forty nine patients were given carboplatin and 5 patients were received cisplatin intraperitoneally at an equi-toxic dose. To clarify the effect of cisplatin and carboplatin on the kidney, serum creatinine and blood urea nitrogen (BUN) were measured before anesthesia, 1, 3 and 7th day after surgery in both agents. RESULTS: There were no significant changes of creatinine level on 1, 3 and 7 days postoperatively compared to preoperative creatinine in carboplatin patients. In carboplatin patients, postoperative BUN levels were decreased significantly on 1 and 3 days, but they were within normal range. BUN level of postoperative 7 day showed no significant change. In cisplatin patient, there was insignificant increase of BUN and creatinine levels on 1, 3 and 7 days postoperatively. CONCLUSIONS: These results suggest that carboplatin did not suppress renal function until 7 days after CHPP. Cisplatin markedly increased the creatinine and BUN until 7 days postoperatively, but there was no statistical significance.

Acid-Base Balance according to Intravenous Fluid during Continuous Hyperthermic Peritoneal Perfusion / 대한마취과학회지

BACKGROUND: Continuous hyperthermic peritoneal perfusion (CHPP) has been introduced to improve the survival of cancer patients. However CHPP induced acute change of body temperature and intra- abdominal pressure could produce various abnormal physiologic responses, especially acid-base and electrolyte imbalance. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of intravenous fluids, plasma solution and Hartmann's solution on acid-base status and electrolyte concentrations during CHPP and to determine strategies for safer fluid management. METHODS: Thirty five patients with ovarian cancer were divided into two groups; Group 1 (16 patients) was supplied with plasma solution and Group 2 (19 patients) was supplied with a Hartman solution as the intravenous fluid. Closed peritoneal irrigation was done with perfusate at a temperature of 47oC for 90 min under general anesthesia. Body temperature, hemodynamic parameters (mean arterial pressure MAP, heart rate HR), blood gas tensions (PaO2, PaCO2), acid-base parameters (pH, base deficit BD) and electrolytes (sodium, potassium, calcium) were measured at 10 min before CHPP, 30, 60, 90 min after the initiation of CHPP, and 30 min after the end of CHPP. RESULTS: There were no significant changes in body temperature, MAP, HR, PaO2, PaCO2 during CHPP in both groups. pH measured at postCHPP in group 2 was significantly lower than that measured in group 1. Base deficits measured at 30, 60, 90 min after the initiation of CHPP and 30 min after the end of CHPP in group 2 were significantly lower than those measured in group 1. Potassium and calcium ion concentations did not show statistical significance during CHPP in both groups. 7 patients in group 1 whose calcium ion level dropped by more than 20% of the initial value needed a calcium injection but only 1 patient in group 2 needed a calcium injection. CONCLUSION: It appears that hemodynamic stability was maintained well during CHPP between the two group. A plasma solution may be more ideal in reducing acidic tendencies and base deficits thana Hartmann's solution but a plasma solution supplied group requires frequent evaluation and a supply of calcium for adequate serum calcium levels.

The Effects of Continuous Hyperthermic Peritoneal Perfusion (CHPP) on Cardiopulmonary Parameters in the Basis of Systemic Oxygen Balance / 대한마취과학회지

BACKGROUND: Intra-operative application of continuous hyperthermic peritoneal perfusion (CHPP) in advanced cancer has been introduced as an effective and safe method to lessen the complication and enhance the effectiveness of its treatment. But CHPP induced acute change of body temperature and intra-abdominal pressure would produce various abnormal physiologic response. Now, we investigated to evaluate and understand the trend of changes of cardiac and oxygen parameters during CHPP. METHODS: Closed peritoneal irrigation was done with perfusate at temperature 47oC for 90 min under general anesthesia. Cardiac and oxygen parameters were measured at 10 min before CHPP, 30, 60, 90 min after the initiation of CHPP, 30 min after the end of CHPP with Swan-Ganz catheter application. RESULTS: Hemodynamic parameters; Systemic vascular resistance index and mean arterial pressure were decreased trend during CHPP. Pulmonary capillary wedge pressure and cardiac index were increased during CHPP. Oxygen parameters; AaDO2 and shunt fraction were increased during CHPP and O2 index were decreased during CHPP. Oxygen balance; O2 consumption and delivery increased during CHPP. CONCLUSIONS: We confirmed that systemic oxygen consumption and delivery were increased during CHPP but AaDO2 and shunt fraction were increased which could decrease systemic oxygen delivery. We should need more careful monitoring and proper treatment for maintaining stable hemodynamics and systemic oxygen balance during and after CHPP.
