Plasma catecholamine levels during extracorporeal circulation in children.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Plasma adrenaline and noradrenaline concentrations have been measured in nine children undergoing cardiac operations involving extracorporeal circulation under neuroleptanaesthesia. Compared to control values, plasma adrenal increased 34-fold and noradrenaline, 2.2-fold during extracorporeal circulation. The increase in plasma catecholamines reported in adults has been confirmed in these children and changes in plasma adrenaline concentrations during extracorporeal circulation were found to be much greater in paediatric patients.

Consequences of catecholamine release on ventilation and blood oxygen transport during hypoxia and hypercapnia in an elasmobranch Squalus acanthias and a teleost Oncorhynchus mykiss
The marine dogfish (Squalus acanthias) and the seawater-adapted rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) were exposed to acute environmental hypercapnia or hypoxia to evaluate (i) the dynamics of catecholamine release into the circulation and (ii) the impact of catecholamine release on gill ventilation and blood oxygen transport. This comparison was undertaken to test the hypothesis that the pattern...
متن کاملTracheal Chondrosarcoma Excised With Extracorporeal Circulation
Introduction: Tracheal chondrosarcoma (TCS) is a rare malignancy, with only 19 cases described in the literature to date. Case presentation: Herein, we presented the third-largest TCS with such an airway compromise that neither orotracheal intubation nor jet ventilation or even tracheostomy was possible. So, extracorporeal circulation was needed to excise the tumor in a one-stage procedure. Th...
متن کاملAnaesthesia-free extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy in patients with renal calculi.
Modern extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy can be performed with combined ECG and respiratory triggered shock wave release. Disconnecting the ECG triggering increases the risk of ventricular arrhythmias, including potentially malignant ones. The aim of this study was to assess the relationship of any sympatho-adrenal excitation as a possible explanation for the occurrence of cardiac arrhythmi...
متن کاملThe effects of conventional extracorporeal circulation versus miniaturized extracorporeal circulation on microcirculation during cardiopulmonary bypass-assisted coronary artery bypass graft surgery.
OBJECTIVES To reduce the complications associated with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) during cardiac surgery, many modifications have been made to conventional extracorporeal circulation systems. This trend has led to the development of miniaturized extracorporeal circulation systems. Cardiac surgery using conventional extracorporeal circulation systems has been associated with significantly redu...
متن کاملInhibition of Kinin Formation by a Kallikrein Inhibitor during Extracorporeal Circulation
Involvement of the kinin system was studied in 58 patients during extracorporeal circulation in openheart surgery. At the onset of extracorporeal circulation, there was no increase of free kinin in blood and no reduction of plasma kininogen, when the latter was expressed as gg bradykinin/mg plasma protein. With the lapse of time. kinin in the blood increased significantly, and decrease of kinin...
