RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: The authors studied the incidence of postoperative delirium among cardiac surgery patients using the Intensive Care Delirium Screening Checklist (ICDSC). DESIGN: Prospective screening. SETTING: Two university hospitals. PARTICIPANTS: A total of 1,036 consecutive patients. INTERVENTIONS: None. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS: Patients were prospectively screened from day 1 to day 10 after surgery or until hospital discharge. Appropriate perioperative data were collected. The overall incidence of postoperative delirium was 11.5%. In the multivariate logistic regression analysis, age over 70 years, higher EuroSCORE points, longer aortic occlusion time, and profuse drainage increased the incidence of delirium. The duration of mechanical ventilation and intensive care unit length of stay were longer in the group of patients with delirium (10.6 hours [6.6-19.5] v 6.4 hours [4.9-8.6], p < 0.001, and 1.7 days [0.9-4.2] v 0.9 days [0.9-1], p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS: Postoperative delirium is common after cardiac surgery, and it is associated with the duration of mechanical ventilation.

RESUMO

Low pulmonary vascular resistance index (PVRI) reflects favorable redundant pulmonary circulation following coronary artery bypass grafting with cardiopulmonary bypass surgery (CPB). This randomized study investigated whether aprotinin given in different modalities impacts PVRI after coronary artery bypass grafting. A total of 40 patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting were randomized to four groups according to aprotinin dose: (1) high dose, (2) early low dose, (3) late low dose, and (4) without aprotinin. Oxygenation index, pulmonary shunt, alveolar-arterial oxygen gradient and PVRI were determined. PVRI was calculated as the transpulmonary pressure gradient divided by cardiac index multiplied by 80. The results showed that PVRI remained relative low in all patients provided aprotinin regardless of treatment dosage; PVRI increased at 4 h after restarting ventilation after CPB in patients without aprotinin as compared with aprotinin (266 ± 137, 266 ± 115, 244 ± 86 vs. 386 ± 121, dynes-s-cm-5, respectively, p = .047). Elevated postoperative PVRI was predictive for patients without aprotinin (AUC 0.668; SE 0.40; p < .0001; CI 0.590-0.746). There were no statistical differences in oxygenation index, pulmonary shunt or alveolar-arterial oxygen gradient between the groups. In conclusion, aprotinin maintains a low PVRI in elective patients with healthy lungs during CPB. We suggest that aprotinin maintains pulmonary arterial endothelial integrity.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Decreased pulmonary vascular resistance index (PVRI) reflects favorable postoperative pulmonary circulation after coronary artery bypass grafting. This randomized study investigated whether cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) impacts PVRI after coronary artery bypass grafting. MATERIAL AND METHODS: A total of 47 patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting were randomized into four groups according to the ventilation and surgical technique: (1) No ventilation group, with intubation tube detached from the ventilator, (2) low tidal volume group, with continuous low tidal volume ventilation, (3) continuous 10 cm H2O positive airway pressure (CPAP) group, and (4) randomly selected patients undergoing surgery without CPB. Oxygenation index, pulmonary shunt, alveolar-arterial oxygen gradient and PVRI were determined. PVRI was calculated as the transpulmonary pressure gradient divided by cardiac index multiplied by 80. RESULTS: During the first postoperative morning there were no statistical differences in oxygenation index, pulmonary shunt or alveolar-arterial oxygen gradient between the groups, while PVRI remained elevated in patients without CPB as compared with patients with CPB (263 ± 98 vs. 122 ± 84, dyne-s-cm(-5), respectively, p < 0.001). PVRI decreased in all patients with CPB regardless of ventilation technique. In contrast, elevated postoperative PVRI values were predictive for patients without CPB (AUC 0.786; SE 0.043; p < 0.001; 95% CI. 0.701-0.870). CONCLUSIONS: Modified ventilation does not affect PVRI in elective patients with healthy lungs during CPB. Instead, CPB per se may have an important role on diminished PVRI. We suggest that CPB preserves pulmonary arterial endothelial integrity.

RESUMO

Background. We studied the effect of fast induction of cardiac arrest with denosine on myocardial bax and bcl-2 expression. Methods and Results. 40 elective CABG patients were allocated into two groups. The adenosine group (n = 20) received 250 mug/kg adenosine into the aortic root followed by blood potassium cardioplegia. The control group received potassium cardioplegia in blood. Bcl-2 and bax were measured. Bax was reduced in the postoperative biopsies (1.38 versus 0.47, P = .002) in the control group. Bcl-2 showed a reducing tendency (0.14 versus 0.085, P = .07). After the adenosine treatment, the expression of both bax (0.52 versus 0.59, P = .4) and bcl-2 (0.104 versus 0.107, P = .4) remained unaltered after the operation. Conclusion. Open heart surgery is associated with rapid reduction in the expression of apoptosis regulating genes bax and bcl-2. Fast Adenosine induction abolished changes in their expression.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: Apoptosis has been considered as one of the mechanisms of cardiomyocyte loss during open heart surgery. Adenosine is cardioprotective against ischemia-reperfusion injury in experimental models. The aim of this study was to find out whether the administration of single dose adenosine added to blood cardioplegia is effective in decreasing the apoptosis process. METHODS: In a double-blinded randomized control intervention study, 40 patients were enrolled for elective coronary artery bypass grafting. In the adenosine group (n=20) patients received 250 microg/kg adenosine in the aortic root after cross-clamping followed by cold blood cardioplegia. In the control group (n=20) patients had only antegrade cardioplegia. Left ventricular tissue samples (from apex) were taken before and after the bypass. The apoptotic cells were identified by dUTP nick-end labeling (TUNEL) using an apoptosis detection kit. The number of TUNEL-positive cardiomyocytes was expressed as percentage of the total number of cardiomyocytes in histological tissue sections. RESULTS: The groups were closely identical in demographic data, cross-clamp time, cardiopulmonary bypass time and weaning time. The postoperative cardiac index and other hemodynamic parameters, including the patterns of CK-MB, did not show statistically significant differences. In the tissue samples there were an equal number of patients who developed apoptosis after the cross-clamp. Although the frequency of apoptosis in the control group was two times higher than in the adenosine group, this was statistically not significant. CONCLUSIONS: Adenosine enhanced blood cardioplegia could not prevent myocardial apoptosis completely. However, it seems to be that adenosine might influence the frequency of apoptosis and this needs to be considered in future investigations.
