The choice of whether or not to stop beating after conversion to cardiopulmonary bypass in off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting / 中国胸心血管外科临床杂志

ABSTRACT

@#Objective    To explore the effect of whether or not to stop beating after conversion to cardio-pulmonary bypass (CPB) in off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting. Methods    From 2016 to 2018, 177 patients with off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting in Beijing Anzhen Hospital were transferred to CPB. According to whether they stopped beating after conversion to CPB during the operation, they were divided into two groups. A non-stop beating group there were 76 patients with 45 males, 31 females. aged 63.53±6.98 years, who were not to stop beating after conversion to CPB. A stop beating group there were 101 patients with 66 males and 35 females, aged 63.98 ± 8.37 years, who were to stop beating and underwent the modified perfusion and application of papaverine in perfusion after conversion to CPB. The clinical effect of the two groups was compared. Results    There were 14 deaths in the perioperative period. The mean graft flow (MGF) in the stop beating group was higher (P=0.033), and the pulse index (PI) was lower (P=0.001) than those in the non-stop beating group. Intra-aortic balloon counter pulsation (P=0.036), extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (P=0.038), continuous renal replacement therapy (P=0.014), ventilator-assisted time (P=0.021), ICU monitoring time (P=0.012), perioperative mortality (P=0.025) and the ejcetion fraction value (P=0.023) were significantly different between the groups. Conclusion    Compared with not to stop beating, those to stop beating can get better perioperative clinical effect after conversion to CPB, which is worthy of recommendation.
