چکیده

The aim of this study was to determine: 1) whether a bilateral perfusion circuit (Drew technique) using the patient's own lung as the oxygenator is feasible for multi-vessel coronary artery bypass grafting; and 2) if the systemic inflammatory response to extracorporeal circulation differs compared to conventional cardiopulmonary bypass procedures. Twenty patients were enrolled in a randomized, controlled study. In the Drew group (n=10) bilateral perfusion was used. The other patients (n= 1 0) were operated on with conventional perfusion techniques and served as the control group. Pro(interleukin-6) and anti-inflammatory (interleukin-10) mediators were measured before operation, during rewarming, 30 min, 2, 4, and 24 hours after extracorporeal circulation. The results show that: 1) multi-vessel coronary artery bypass grafting could be performed during 90 ± 8 min of bilateral cardiopulmonary bypass; 2) the concentration of the interleukin6 was significantly lower in the Drew group at 2 hours (449 ± 82 versus 914 ± 152 pg/ml, p = 0.02), and 24 hours (146 ± 38 versus 424 ± 98 pg/ml, p = 0.02), after cardiopulmonary bypass. The Drew technique seems to be a promising method of extracorporeal circulation which: 1) can safely be used during routine coronary bypass grafting procedures; and 2) significantly reduces the systemic inflammatory response as compared to conventional extracorporeal circulation.

Reduction of pro-inflammatory cytokine levels and cellular adhesion in CABG procedures with separated pulmonary and systemic extracorporeal circulation without an oxygenator.

OBJECTIVE We have recently shown that a considerable amount of pro-inflammatory cytokines is released during pulmonary passage after aortic declamping in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting. The present study was performed to investigate whether bilateral extracorporeal circulation with the lungs as oxygenators can reduce the inflammatory responses of the lungs. METHODS Eighte...

Hyperhomocysteinemia in bilateral anterior ischemic optic neuropathy after conventional coronary artery bypass graft: a case report

BACKGROUND The incidence of anterior ischemic optic neuropathy after coronary artery bypass graft procedures ranges from 1.3 to 0.25%. The mechanisms of anterior ischemic optic neuropathy after cardiovascular procedures remain undefined but many systemic and related-to-surgery risk factors could underlie anterior ischemic optic neuropathy. In this case, we report a rare presentation of a bilate...

Pulmonary function after biventricular bypass for autologous lung oxygenation.

OBJECTIVE Biventricular bypass (BVB) with autologous lung perfusion is an attractive concept to ameliorate systemic inflammatory response by eliminating the oxygenator from the extracorporeal circulation. The effect of biventricular bypass as compared to heart-lung bypass (HLB) on pulmonary function parameters was therefore studied in an experimental model. METHODS Heart-lung bypass using a m...

Non-extracorporeal circulation for coronary artery bypass graft surgery is more beneficial than extracorporeal circulation.

OBJECTIVE The objective of this study was to compare coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery with non-extracorporeal vs. extracorporeal circulation. The study outcomes included operative time, number of graft vessels, pulmonary infection rates, and systemic inflammatory markers. PATIENTS AND METHODS 96 patients received selective CABG, either with non-extracorporeal (study group; n = 48) ...

Low-prime system minimizes transfusions and hemodilution in coronary bypass.

Standard heart-lung machines lead to substantial hemodilution with associated impaired organ function and increased need for blood transfusions. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of the new PRECiSe low prime volume system on perioperative myocardial damage, hemodilution, and transfusions. In a case-matched prospective study, 40 patients undergoing coronary artery bypass surgery u...
