Use of the Quest Myocardial Protection System (MPS) for modified ultrafiltration during pediatric cardiac surgery.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Modified ultrafiltration generally is considered a standard of care for treating children undergoing cardiopulmonary bypass for congenital heat surgery. Different methods, incorporating a variety of devices and technologies, have been described. The present report describes a technique of modified ultrafiltration using arterial-venous flow with the Quest Myocardial Protection System (MPS).

Problems of Cold Agglutinins in Cardiac Surgery: How to Manage Cardiopulmonary Bypass and Myocardial Protection
Cold agglutinins are of unique relevance in cardiac surgerybecause of the use of hypothermic cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). Cold autoimmune diseases are defined by the presence of abnormal circulating proteins (usually IgM or IgA antibodies) that agglutinate in response to a decrease in body temperature. These disorders include cryoglobulinemia and cold hemagglutinin disease.Immunoglobulin M aut...
متن کاملModified ultrafiltration after cardiopulmonary bypass in pediatric cardiac surgery.
BACKGROUND Cardiopulmonary bypass in children results in considerable water retention, especially in neonates and small infants. Dilution of plasma proteins increases water loss into the extravascular compartments. Excessive total body water may prolong ventilatory support and may contribute to a prolongation of intensive care convalescence. After discontinuation of cardiopulmonary bypass, modi...
متن کاملModified Ultrafiltration During Cardiopulmonary Bypass and Postoperative Course of Pediatric Cardiac Surgery
CONTEXT The use of cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) provokes the inflammatory responses associated with ischemic/reperfusion injury, hemodilution and other agents. Exposure of blood cells to the bypass circuit surface starts a systemic inflammatory reaction that may causes post-CPB organ dysfunction, particularly in lungs, heart and brain. EVIDENCE ACQUISITION We investigated in the MEDLINE, PUBM...
متن کاملUltrafiltration reduces blood transfusions following cardiac surgery: A meta-analysis.
BACKGROUND Although used routinely in pediatric patients, ultrafiltration techniques that reverse hemodilution are infrequently used in adults. Data from small, unblinded clinical trials suggest that the use of ultrafiltration can reduce inflammatory mediators, improve cardiac function, and reduce hemodilution. We conducted a meta-analysis of randomized trials to evaluate the effects of ultrafi...
متن کاملMyocardial protection in pediatric cardiac surgery.
The combination of hypothermia and potassium cardioplegic arrest has become the most common method of myocardial protection in the evolution of myocardial protection. This review focuses on myocardial protection in pediatric cardiac surgery. In the 1980s, blood was added to cardioplegia solution in order to supply the myocardium with oxygen, nutrients, and for buffering purposes. Similar myocar...
