ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVES: To evaluate factors that influence the survival of transplanted organs from donors after prehospital cardiac death. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Retrospective observational study of data collected from hospital emergency service records. Information included prehospital cardiac deaths evaluated as donors as well as patients who received transplants. RESULTS: Two hundred cases from 2008 through 2011 were studied. Sixty-nine potential donors (34.5%) were rejected. Three hundred organs were extracted from the remaining 131 donor cases, to yield a mean (SD) of 2.32 (0.83) transplanted organs/donor or 1.52 (1.29) organs/potential donor. One hundred fifty-two potential donors (76%) were treated with mechanical cardiopumps during transport. We detected no significant differences between cases transported with manual chest compressions and cases treated with cardiopumps regarding age (40.1 vs 43.5 years, P=.06), responder arrival times (13 min 54 s vs 12 min 54 s, P=.45), or transport times (1 h 27 min vs 1 h 32 min). However, case transported with manual chest compressions yielded significantly more kidneys (mean, 1.96/potential donor) than those transported with cardiopump compressions (mean, 1.38/potential donor) (P=.008). Eleven of the 229 kidneys harvested (4%) were not transplanted. The median (interquartile range) serum creatinine concentrations after kidney transplants at 6 and 12 months, respectively, were 1.37 (1.10-1.58) mg/dL and 1.43 (1.11-1.80) mg/dL. CONCLUSION: Our findings suggest that the use of a cardiopump reduces donor recruitment. Long-term creatinine levels are similar after transplantation of kidneys from donors transported with a cardiopump or with manual compressions.
OBJETIVO: Valorar los factores extrahospitalarios que pueden influir en la viabilidad de los injertos en los receptores. METODO: Estudio observacional retrospectivo que recoge datos de los registros del sistema de emergencias (pacientes con muerte cardiaca extrahospitalaria que fueron trasladados al hospital para valorar) y del hospital (pacientes trasplantados) de aquellos pacientes con muerte cardiaca extrahospitalaria que fueron trasladados al hospital para valorar. RESULTADOS: Se recogen 200 casos entre los años 2008 y 2011, de los que 69 (34,5%) no fueron donantes. De los 131 donantes utilizados se extrajeron 300 órganos [media de 2,32 (DE 0,83) órganos/donante utilizado y 1,52 (DE 1,29) órganos/donante potencial]. De los 200 pacientes, 152 fueron trasladados bajo cardiocompresión mecánica (76%). No hay diferencia significativa en edad (40,1 frente a 43,5 años, p = 0,06) y tiempo de llegada (13' 54' ' frente a 12' 54' ' , p = 0,45) y tiempo de trasferencia (1 h y 27' frente a 1 h y 32') entre el grupo de pacientes trasladados con cardiocompresión manual y con cardiocompresión mecánica, pero si en la media de órganos por donante potencial en favor de la cardiocompresión manual (1,96 frente a 1,38, p = 0,008). De los 229 riñones extraídos, no se trasplantaron 11 (4%). La mediana de la creatinina a los 6 meses de los riñones fue de 1,37 mg/dl (RIC: 1,10-1,58) y a los 12 meses de 1,43 mg/dl (RIC: 1,11-1,80), sin diferencias entre ambos grupos. CONCLUSIONES: Nuestros datos sugieren que el uso de compresores mecánicos disminuye el reclutamiento de donantes. A largo plazo la concentración de creatinina en los riñones trasplantados es similar independientemente del tipo de compresión usada durante el traslado y ninguna variable extrahospitalaria predice la evolución de los injertos.
