ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND: The mechanisms of acid-base changes during cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) remain unclear. We tested the hypothesis that, when used as CPB pump prime solutions, Plasma-Lyte 148 (PL) and Hartmann's solution (HS) have differential mechanisms of action in their contribution to acid-base changes. METHODS: We performed a prospective, double-blind, randomized trial in adult patients undergoing elective cardiac surgery with CPB. Participants received a CPB prime solution of 2000 mL, with either PL or HS. The primary endpoint was the standard base excess (SBE) value measured at 60 minutes after full CPB flows (SBE60min). Secondary outcomes included changes in SBE, pH, chloride, sodium, lactate, gluconate, acetate, strong ion difference and strong ion gap at two (T2min), five (T5min), ten (T10min), thirty (T30min) and sixty (T60min) minutes on CPB. The primary outcome was measured using a two-tailed Welch's t-test. Repeated measures ANOVA was used to test for differences between time points. RESULTS: Twenty-five participants were randomized to PL and 25 to HS. Baseline characteristics, EURO and APACHE scores, biochemistry, hematology and volumes of cardioplegia were similar. Mean (SD) SBE at T60min was -1.3 (1.4) in the PL group and -0.1 (2.7) in the HS group; p=0.55. No significant differences in SBE between the groups was observed during the first 60 minutes (p=0.48). During CPB, there was hyperacetatemia and hypergluconatemia in the PL group and hyperlactatemia and hyperchloremia in the HS group. No significant difference between the groups in plasma bicarbonate levels and total weak acid levels were found. Complications and intensive care unit and hospital length of stays were similar. CONCLUSIONS: During CPB, PL and HS did not cause a significant metabolic acidosis. There was hyperacetatemia and hypergluconatemia with PL and hyperchloremia and hyperlactatemia with HS. These physiochemical effects appear clinically innocuous.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVES: A single or dual-dose strategy for myocardial protection is attractive in long operations, in avoiding the need to interrupt the procedure to re-administer cardioplegia. We hypothesized that a single administration of Bretschneider histidine-tryptophan-ketoglutarate (HTK) crystalloid solution (Custodiol) offers myocardial protection comparable with repeated tepid blood cardioplegia. METHODS: We reviewed a prospectively compiled single-centre database containing all adult cardiac procedures performed from January 2005 to January 2011. Preoperative demographic and investigative data, operative variables and postoperative (30-day) mortality and morbidity were compared between the Custodiol and blood cardioplegia groups. The study primary endpoints were 30-day mortality, return to the operating theatre, myocardial infarction, stroke, postoperative requirement for an intra-aortic balloon pump, new renal failure, prolonged ventilation and re-admission to hospital within 30 days. Propensity score matching was performed to correct for any bias that may have been associated with the usage of Custodiol. RESULTS: A total of 1900 cardiac surgical procedures were identified of which 126 (7%) utilized Custodiol and 1774 (93%) used blood cardioplegia as the primary cardioplegic agent. After propensity-score matching, we were able to match 71 Custodiol cases one-to-one to those receiving blood cardioplegia. There were no statistically significant differences noted for any of the endpoints studied after propensity-score matching. In particular, the proportion of mortality (blood cardioplegia: 1 vs Custodiol 4%, P = 0.63) any mortality/morbidity (blood cardioplegia: 35 vs Custodiol: 39% P = 0.46) was similar between the groups. CONCLUSIONS: The use of Custodiol is convenient, simple and at least as safe as tepid blood cardioplegia for myocardial protection in complex cardiac operations. A randomized prospective comparison of myocardial protection strategies is warranted.
