S‐Nitrosohemoglobin Levels and Patient Outcome After Transfusion During Pediatric Bypass Surgery
نویسندگان
چکیده
Banked blood exhibits impairments in nitric oxide (NO)-based oxygen delivery capability, reflected in rapid depletion of S-nitrosohemoglobin (SNO-Hb). We hypothesized that transfusion of even freshly-stored blood used in pediatric heart surgery would reduce SNO-Hb levels and worsen outcome. In a retrospective review (n = 29), the percent of estimated blood volume (% eBV) replaced by transfusion directly correlated with ventilator time and inversely correlated with kidney function; similar results were obtained in a prospective arm (n = 20). In addition, an inverse association was identified between SNO-Hb and postoperative increase in Hb (∆Hb), reflecting the amount of blood retained by the patient. Both SNO-Hb and ∆Hb correlated with the probability of kidney dysfunction and oxygenation-related complications. Further, regression analysis identified SNO-Hb as an inverse predictor of outcome. The findings suggest that SNO-Hb and ∆Hb are prognostic biomarkers following pediatric cardiopulmonary bypass, and that maintenance of red blood cell-derived NO bioactivity might confer therapeutic benefit.

Modified 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...

Background: Lactic acidosis in cardiac surgical patients is a manifestation of systemic inflammation and excess pro-inflammatory cytokine production. This investigation was designed to integrate basic concepts about lactate acidosis with a clinically used of serum lactate in patients under coronary artery bypass surgery (CABG) by on pump method. Methods: From August to September 2012, 15 patie...
متن کاملBase deficit in the immediate postoperative period of open-heart surgery and patient outcome
Abstarct Background: Base deficit is a non-respiratory indicator of acid base status that evaluates the severity of shock at the cellular level. Base deficit results from cellular metabolism of pyruvate under anaerobic conditions. In this situation, base deficit is a sensitive marker of the magnitude of anaerobic metabolism and tissue oxygen deficit [1]. Several studies have shown a strong pos...
متن کاملThe factors that affect blood and blood products usage in coronary artery graft surgery
Background: Coronary artery bypass surgery is one of the surgeries in which high blood transfusions are needed. About 20% of all surgical operations require a blood transfusion. Packed cell administration increases perioperative morbidity and mortality. In the United States, from every 1000 people, one has undergone a coronary artery bypass graft surgery, and it is estimated that around 800,000...

Background: This study compared the effect of Voluven and Ringer solution in cardiopulmonary bypass on the bleeding after the surgery and renal function in coronary artery bypass graft surgeries. Methods: Two types of prime solution including ringer - as Crystalloid- and Voluven were used in two groups and compared in terms of bleeding and renal function during the first 24 hours after the surg...
