Gen Thorac Cardiovasc Surg 2024; 72:447-454. [PMID: 38038878 DOI: 10.1007/s11748-023-01989-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/15/2023] [Accepted: 11/02/2023] [Indexed: 12/02/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Intro-aortic balloon pump (IABP) is widely used in cardiac surgery patients nowadays. This study aimed to analyze the predictor of short-term survival in cardiac valvular surgery patients with intra-aortic balloon pump implantation. METHODS This was a retrospective study and a total of 102 cardiac valvular surgery patients who received intra-aortic balloon pump implantation were consecutively included. We retrospectively collected the baseline characteristics and short-term outcomes. Baseline characteristics were compared between survivors with non-survivors, and logistic regression was performed to identify predictors for short-term mortality. RESULTS Among all the patients, there were 71 (69.6%) patients successfully weaned from IABP and survived to discharge, the other 31 (30.4%) patients failed to wean from IABP and died within the first 30 days after surgery. When compared with non-survivors, survivors had a higher proportion of males (62% vs 32.3%, p = 0.006), a lower rate of Atrial fibrillation (38% vs 62%, p < 0.03). After IABP implantation, vasoactive drug use was significantly lower in survivors compared with non-survivors, and survivors showed significant improvements in cardiac function and urine volume. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis indicated that atrial fibrillation and combined use of continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) were significant independent predictors for short-term mortality. CONCLUSION Timely implantation of IABP can improve patients' cardiac and renal function and reduce the dosage of vasoactive drugs. Atrial fibrillation and combined use of CRRT are independent predictors for short-term mortality in patients who underwent cardiac valvular surgery with IABP implantation.

Effectiveness of Dexmedetomidine as Myocardial Protector in Children With Classic Tetralogy of Fallot Having Corrective Surgery: A Randomized Controlled Trial. J Cardiothorac Vasc Anesth 2024; 38:1369-1377. [PMID: 38555217 DOI: 10.1053/j.jvca.2023.10.004] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/25/2023] [Revised: 09/16/2023] [Accepted: 10/04/2023] [Indexed: 04/02/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES Efficacy of dexmedetomidine (DEX) as a cardioprotective agent in Indonesian children undergoing classic tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) repair with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). DESIGN A prospective, parallel trial using block randomization along with double-blinded preparation of treatment agents by other parties. SETTING National Cardiovascular Center Harapan Kita, Indonesia. PARTICIPANTS Sixty-six children with classic TOF scheduled for corrective surgery. No children were excluded. All patients had fulfilled the criteria for analysis. INTERVENTIONS A total of 0.5 µg/kg bolus of DEX was added to the CPB priming solution, followed by 0.25 µg/kg/h maintenance during bypass. The placebo group used normal saline. Follow-ups were up to 30 days. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS Troponin I was lower in the DEX group at 6 hours (30.48 ± 19.33 v 42.73 ± 27.16, p = 0.039) and 24 hours after CPB (8.89 ± 5.42 v 14.04 ± 11.17, p = 0.02). Within a similar timeframe, DEX successfully lowered interleukin-6 (p = 0.03; p = 0.035, respectively). Lactate was lower in the Dex group at 1, 6, and 24 hours after CPB (p < 0.01; p = 0.048; p = 0.035; respectively). Dexmedetomidine increased cardiac output and index from 6 hours after bypass, but vice versa in systemic vascular resistance. Reduction of vasoactive inotropic score was seen during intensive care unit monitoring in the Dex group (p = 0.049). Nevertheless, DEX did not significantly affect the length of ventilation (p = 0.313), intensive care unit stay (p = 0.087), and mortality (p > 0.99). CONCLUSIONS Dexmedetomidine during CPB is an effective cardioprotective agent in TOF children having surgery. Postoperative mortality was comparable across groups.

Abstract
Background The impact of coagulation indicators on postoperative outcomes of patients with constrictive pericarditis undergoing pericardiectomy has been poorly investigated. This study aimed to assess the prognostic role of preoperative coagulation indicators in these patients. Methods We retrospectively included 158 patients with constrictive pericarditis undergoing pericardiectomy. The diagnostic values of coagulation indicators for postoperative complications were evaluated by ROC curves. Patients were divided into two groups according to the cutoff value calculated by ROC curve. Postoperative outcomes were compared between the two groups. Logistic regression analysis was performed to identify risk factors of postoperative complications. Results ROC curve showed that among different coagulation indicators, preoperative D-dimer (DD) level could effectively identify patients with postoperative complications (AUC 0.771, 95% CI 0.696-0.847, P < 0.001). Patients were divided into the low DD group and the high DD group. The comparison of postoperative outcomes suggested that high preoperative DD level was significantly associated with longer durations of vasoactive agents using (P = 0.018), intubation (P = 0.020), ICU stay (P = 0.008), chest drainage (P=0.004) and hospital stay (P = 0.002). Multivariable analysis showed that high preoperative DD level was the independent risk factor of postoperative complications (OR 6.892, 95% CI 2.604-18.235, P < 0.001). Conclusion High preoperative DD level was significantly linked to poor postoperative outcomes and could provide an effective prediction ability for postoperative complications in patients with constrictive pericarditis.

Korean J Anesthesiol 2024; 77:205-216.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Time-domain parameters are less reliable in children due to increased arterial and chest wall compliance. We assessed the ability of indices derived from frequency analysis of photoplethysmography (PPG) and arterial blood pressure (ABP) waveforms to predict the hemodynamic state in children undergoing congenital heart surgery. METHODS We analyzed waveforms after cardiopulmonary bypass period in 76 children who underwent total repair of congenital heart disease. Amplitude density of baseline and amplitude modulation in PPG and ABP by respiratory frequency were obtained using fast Fourier transform analysis and normalized by cardiac pulse height (representing respiratory modulations in venous blood [PPG-DC%] and in amplitude [PPG-AC%] at respiratory frequency). The ratio of amplitude density of PPG at the cardiac frequency (CF) to ABP-CF was used to assess vascular compliance. We assessed volume replacement (ml/kg) and vasoactive inotropic score (VIS). RESULTS Children requiring volume replacement > 10 ml/kg (15.8%) showed higher PPG-DC% than those not requiring it (median: 52.4%, 95% CI [24.8, 295.1] vs. 36.7% [10.7, 125.7], P = 0.017). In addition, children with a VIS > 7 (22.4%) showed higher PPG-CF/ABP-CF (3.6 [0.91, 10.8] vs. 1.2 [0.27, 5.5], P = 0.008). On receiver operating characteristic curve analysis, PPG-DC% predicted a higher fluid requirement (area under the curve: 0.71, 95% CI [0.604, 0.816], P = 0.009), while PPG-CF/ABP-CF predicted a higher VIS (0.714, [0.599, 0.812], P = 0.004). CONCLUSIONS Frequency domain analysis of PPG and ABP may assess hemodynamic status requiring fluid or vasoactive inotropic therapy after congenital heart surgery.

Additional bypass graft or concomitant surgical ablation? Insights from the HEIST registry. Surgery 2024; 175:974-983.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Surgical ablation for atrial fibrillation at the time of isolated coronary artery bypass grafting is reluctantly attempted. Meanwhile, complete revascularization is not always possible in these patients. We attempted to counterbalance the long-term benefits of surgical ablation against the risks of incomplete revascularization. METHODS Atrial fibrillation patients undergoing isolated coronary artery bypass grafting for multivessel disease between 2012 to 2022 and included in the HEart surgery In atrial fibrillation and Supraventricular Tachycardia registry were divided into complete revascularization, complete revascularization with additional grafts, and incomplete revascularization cohorts; these were further split into surgical ablation and non-surgical ablation subgroups. RESULTS A total of 8,405 patients (78% men; age 69.3 ± 7.9) were included; of those, 5,918 (70.4%) had complete revascularization, and 556 (6.6%) had surgical ablation performed. Number of anastomoses was 2.7 ± 1.2. The median follow-up was 5.1 [interquartile range 2.1-8.8] years. In patients in whom complete revascularization was achieved, surgical ablation was associated with long-term survival benefit: hazard ratio 0.69; 95% confidence intervals (0.50-0.94); P = .020 compared with grafting additional lesions. Similarly, in patients in whom complete revascularization was not achieved, surgical ablation was associated with a long-term survival benefit of 0.68 (0.49-0.94); P = .019. When comparing surgical ablation on top of incomplete revascularization against complete revascularization without additional grafts or surgical ablation, there was no difference between the 2: 0.84 (0.61-1.17); P = .307, which was also consistent in the propensity score-matched analysis: 0.75 (0.39-1.43); P = .379. CONCLUSION To achieve complete revascularization is of utmost importance. However, when facing incomplete revascularization at the time of coronary artery bypass grafting in a patient with underlying atrial fibrillation, concomitant surgical ablation on top of incomplete revascularization is associated with similar long-term survival as complete revascularization without surgical ablation.

Postoperative outcomes after total sevoflurane inhalation sedation using a disposable delivery system (Sedaconda-ACD) in cardiac surgery. Front Med (Lausanne) 2024; 11:1340119. [PMID: 38504912 PMCID: PMC10948405 DOI: 10.3389/fmed.2024.1340119] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/17/2023] [Accepted: 02/12/2024] [Indexed: 03/21/2024] Open
Abstract
Introduction The COVID-19 pandemic prompted our team to develop new solutions for performing cardiac surgery without intravenous anesthetics due to a shortage of these drugs. We utilized an anesthetic conserving device (Sedaconda-ACD) to administer total inhaled anesthesia because specific vaporizers were unavailable for administering inhaled agents during cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) in our center. We documented our experience and postoperative cardiovascular outcomes. The primary outcome was the peak level of troponin, with secondary outcomes encompassing other cardiovascular complications. Material and methods A single-center retrospective study was conducted. We performed a multivariate analysis with a propensity score. This investigation took place at a large university referral center. Participants Adult patients (age ≥ 18) who underwent elective cardiac surgery with CPB between June 2020 to March 2021. Intervention During the inclusion period, two anesthesia protocols for the maintenance of anesthesia coexisted-total inhaled anesthesia with Sedaconda-ACD and our classic protocol with intravenous drugs during and after CPB. Primary endpoint Troponin peak level recorded after surgery (highest level recorded within 48 h following the surgery). Results Out of the 654 included patients, 454 were analyzed after matching (intravenous group = 297 and inhaled group = 157). No significant difference was found between the groups in postoperative troponin peak levels (723 ng/l vs. 993 ng/l-p = 0.2). Total inhaled anesthesia was associated with a decreased requirement for inotropic medications (OR = 0.53, 95% CI 0.29-0.99, p = 0.04). Conclusion In our cohort, the Sedaconda-ACD device enabled us to achieve anesthesia without intravenous agents, and we did not observe any increase in postoperative complications. Total inhaled anesthesia with sevoflurane was not associated with a lower incidence of myocardial injury assessed by the postoperative troponin peak level. However, in our cohort, the use of inotropic drugs was lower.

J Cardiothorac Vasc Anesth 2024; 38:649-659. [PMID: 38228424 DOI: 10.1053/j.jvca.2023.11.036] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/28/2023] [Revised: 11/21/2023] [Accepted: 11/26/2023] [Indexed: 01/18/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To verify the impact of preoperative levosimendan on patients with severe left ventricular dysfunction (ejection fraction <35%) undergoing isolated coronary artery bypass grafting. DESIGN A meta-analysis. SETTING Hospitals. PARTICIPANTS The authors included 1,225 patients from 6 randomized controlled trials. INTERVENTIONS None. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS The authors performed a meta-analysis of trials that compared preoperative levosimendan with placebo or no therapy, reporting efficacy and safety endpoints. Statistical analyses used mean differences and risk ratios (RR), with a random effects model. Six studies were included, comprising 1,225 patients, of whom 615 (50.2%) received preoperative levosimendan, and 610 (49.8%) received placebo/no therapy. Preoperative levosimendan showed a lower risk of all-cause mortality (RR 0.31; 95% CI 0.16-0.60; p < 0.01; I2 = 0%), postoperative acute kidney injury (RR 0.44; 95% CI 0.25-0.77; p < 0.01; I2 = 0%), low-cardiac-output syndrome (RR 0.45; 95% CI 0.30-0.66; p < 0.001; I2 = 0%), and postoperative atrial fibrillation (RR 0.49; 95% CI 0.25-0.98; p = 0.04; I2 = 85%) compared to control. Moreover, levosimendan significantly reduced the need for postoperative inotropes and increased the cardiac index at 24 hours postoperatively. There were no differences between groups for perioperative myocardial infarction, hypotension, or any adverse events. CONCLUSION Preoperative levosimendan in patients with severe left ventricular dysfunction undergoing isolated coronary artery bypass grafting was associated with reduced all-cause mortality, low-cardiac-output syndrome, acute kidney injury, postoperative atrial fibrillation, and the need for circulatory support without compromising safety.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The authors investigated the role of early venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA ECMO) implantation in patients with postcardiotomy cardiogenic shock (PCS) on mortality and morbidity when integrating vasoactive-inotropic score (VIS) and type of catecholamine support. DESIGN A retrospective, multicenter, observational study with propensity-weight matching. SETTING Four university-affiliated intensive care units. PARTICIPANTS Patients with PCS in the operating room. INTERVENTIONS Early VA ECMO support. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS Of 2,742 patients screened during the study period, 424 (16%) patients were treated with inotropic drugs, and 75 (3%) patients were supported by VA ECMO in the operating room. Patients supported by VA ECMO had a higher use of vasopressor and inotropic drugs, with a higher VIS score. After propensity matching (integrating VIS and catecholamines type), mortality (56% v 20%, p < 0.001) and morbidity (cardiac, renal, transfusion) were higher in patients supported by VA ECMO than in a matched control group. CONCLUSIONS When matching integrated the pre-ECMO VIS and the type of catecholamines, VA ECMO remained associated with high mortality and morbidity, suggesting that VIS alone should not be used as a main determinant of VA ECMO implantation.

Safety of intranasal insulin administration in patients undergoing cardiovascular surgery: An open-label, nonrandomized, dose-escalation study. JTCVS OPEN 2024; 17:172-182. [PMID: 38420553 PMCID: PMC10897660 DOI: 10.1016/j.xjon.2023.11.020] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/10/2023] [Revised: 11/19/2023] [Accepted: 11/26/2023] [Indexed: 03/02/2024]
Abstract
Objective This study aimed to determine the maximum safe dose of intranasal insulin administration during cardiac surgery. Methods This open-label, Phase 1, single-center, dose-escalation clinical trial recruited patients scheduled to undergo elective cardiac surgery or major vascular surgery requiring cardiopulmonary bypass between February and September 2021. They were grouped into 5 dose-escalation cohorts and administered 0, 40, 80, 160, and 240 IU insulin (n = 6 in each group) via a metered nasal dispenser after the induction of general anesthesia. Blood samples were collected at 10-minute intervals for the first 60 minutes and at 30-minute intervals thereafter. Hypoglycemia was defined as a blood glucose level <70 mg/dL. Patient recruitment was terminated after hypoglycemia was observed in 2 patients in any of the groups. Results In total, 27 of 29 enrolled patients were administered intranasal insulin or saline. Hypoglycemia was not observed after the administration of intranasal insulin in the 0, 40, 80, or 160 IU groups; however, it was observed in 2 of 3 patients in the 240 IU group. The serum insulin concentration was elevated in the 160-IU group, but the C-peptide concentration was not elevated in any of the groups. Conclusions The administration of up to 160 IU intranasal insulin did not induce clinically significant hypoglycemia. However, 160 IU intranasal insulin should be administered cautiously because insulin can enter the systemic circulation in a dose-dependent manner.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Perioperative cardiogenic shock (CS) in cardiac surgery is still burdened by a high mortality risk. The introduction of Impella pumps in the therapeutic armory of temporary mechanical circulatory support (tMCS) has potential implications to improve the management of complex cases, although it has never been systematically addressed. We performed a systematic review of the reported use of tMCS with Impella in cardiac surgery. METHODS We searched PubMed for all original studies on the Impella use in adult patients in cardiac surgery. RESULTS Nineteen studies (out of 151 identified by search string) were included. All studies were observational and all but one (95%) were retrospective. Seven studies focused on the implantation of Impella in the pre-operative setting (coronary or valvular surgery), either as a prophylactic device in high-risk cases (3 studies) or in patients with CS as stabilization tool prior to cardiac surgery procedure (4 studies). Three studies reported the use of Impella as periprocedural support for percutaneous valvular procedure, three as bridge to heart replacement, and six for postcardiotomy CS. Impella support had a low complication rate and was successful in supporting hemodynamics pre-, intra- and postoperatively. Most consistently reported data were left-ventricular ejection fraction at implant, short-term survival and weaning rate. CONCLUSIONS tMCS with Impella in cardiac surgery patients is feasible and successful. It can be applied in selected cardiac surgery patients and presents advantages over other types of support. Systematic prospective studies are needed to standardize indications for implant and management of surgical issues, and to identify which patients may benefit.

Leucoglycemic index predicts post-operative vasopressor-inotropic requirement after adult cardiac surgery (LEUCOGLYPTICS): A retrospective single-center study. J Anaesthesiol Clin Pharmacol 2024; 40:48-55. [PMID: 38666176 PMCID: PMC11042078 DOI: 10.4103/joacp.joacp_100_22] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/12/2022] [Revised: 04/17/2022] [Accepted: 04/17/2022] [Indexed: 04/28/2024] Open
Abstract
Background and Aims Cardiac surgery often necessitates considerable post-operative vasoactive-inotropic support. Given an encouraging literature on the prognostic potential of leucoglycemic index (LGI) [serum glucose (mg/dl) × total leucocytes count (cells/mm3)/1000], we aimed to evaluate whether intensive care unit (ICU)-admission LGI can predict post-operative vasopressor-inotropic requirements following cardiac surgery on cardio-pulmonary bypass (CPB). Material and Methods The data of patients undergoing cardiac surgery at our tertiary care center between January 2015 and December 2020 was retrospectively reviewed. The vasopressor-inotropic requirement was estimated using the VIS (vasoactive-inotropic score) values over the first post-operative 72 hrs. Subsequently, VISi (indexed VIS) was computed as maxVIS[0-24hrs] + maxVIS[24-48hrs] +2 × maxVIS[48-72hrs]/10), and the study participants were divided into h-VISi (VISi ≥3) and l-VISi (VISi <3). Results Out of 2138 patients, 479 (22.40%) patients categorized as h-VISi. On univariate analysis: LGI, age, European System for Cardiac Operative Risk Evaluation score (EuroSCORE II), left-ventricle ejection fraction, prior congestive heart failure (CHF), chronic renal failure, angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors, combined surgeries, CPB and aortic cross-clamp (ACC) duration, blood transfusion, and immediate post-operative glucose were significant h-VISi predictors. Subsequent to multi-variate analysis, the predictive performance of LGI (OR: 1.09; 95% CI: 1.03-1.14; P = 0.002) prior CHF (OR: 2.35; 95% CI: 1.44-3.82; P = 0.001), CPB time (OR: 1.08; 95% CI: 1.02-1.14; P = 0.019), ACC time (OR: 1.03; 95% CI: 1.02-1.04; P = 0.008), and EuroSCORE II (OR: 1.14; 95% CI: 1.06-1.21; P < 0.001) remained significant. With 1484.75 emerging as the h-VISi predictive cut-off, patients with LGI ≥ 1484.75 also had a higher incidence of vasoplegia, low-cardiac output syndrome, new-onset atrial fibrillation, acute kidney injury, and mortality. LGI additionally exhibited a significant positive correlation with duration of mechanical ventilation and ICU stay (R = 0.495 and 0.564, P value < 0.001). Conclusion An elevated LGI of greater than 1484.75 independently predicted a VISindex ≥3 following adult cardiac surgery on CPB.

Abstract
Patients with advanced ischemic cardiomyopathy manifesting as left ventricular dysfunction exist along a spectrum of severity and risk, and thus decision-making surrounding optimal management is challenging. Treatment pathways can include medical therapy as well as revascularization through percutaneous coronary intervention or coronary artery bypass grafting. Additionally, temporary and durable mechanical circulatory support, as well as heart transplantation, may be optimal for select patients. Given this spectrum of risk and the complexity of treatment pathways, patients may not receive appropriate therapy given their perceived risk, which can lead to sub-satisfactory outcomes. In this review, we discuss the identification of high-risk ischemic cardiomyopathy patients, along with our programmatic approach to patient evaluation and perioperative optimization. We also discuss our strategies for therapeutic decision-making designed to optimize both short- and long-term patient outcomes.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Low cardiac output syndrome (LCOS) is a severe complication after valve surgery, with no uniform standard for early identification. We developed interpretative machine learning (ML) models for predicting LCOS risk preoperatively and 0.5 h postoperatively for intervention in advance. METHODS A total of 2218 patients undergoing valve surgery from June 2019 to Dec 2021 were finally enrolled to construct preoperative and postoperative models. Logistic regression, support vector machine (SVM), random forest classifier, extreme gradient boosting, and deep neural network were executed for model construction, and the performance of models was evaluated by area under the curve (AUC) of the receiver operating characteristic and calibration curves. Our models were interpreted through SHapley Additive exPlanations, and presented as an online tool to improve clinical operability. RESULTS The SVM algorithm was chosen for modeling due to better AUC and calibration capability. The AUCs of the preoperative and postoperative models were 0.786 (95% CI 0.729-0.843) and 0.863 (95% CI 0.824-0.902), and the Brier scores were 0.123 and 0.107. Our models have higher timeliness and interpretability, and wider coverage than the vasoactive-inotropic score, and the AUC of the postoperative model was significantly higher. Our preoperative and postoperative models are available online at http://njfh-yxb.com.cn:2022/lcos. CONCLUSIONS The first interpretable ML tool with two prediction periods for online early prediction of LCOS risk after valve surgery was successfully built in this study, in which the SVM model has the best performance, reserving enough time for early precise intervention in critical care.

Abstract
The present study aimed to dynamically observe the segmental and global myocardial movements of the left ventricle during coronary artery bypass grafting by transesophageal speckle-tracking echocardiography, and to assess the effect of sevoflurane on cardiac function. Sixty-four patients scheduled for the off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting were randomly divided into a sevoflurane-based anesthesia (AS) group and a propofol-based total intravenous anesthesia (AA) group. The AS group demonstrated a higher absolute value of left ventricular global longitudinal strain than that of the AA group at both T 1 (after harvesting all grafts and before coronary anastomosis) and T 2 (30 min after completing all coronary anastomoses) ( P < 0.05). Moreover, strain improvement in the segment with the highest preoperative strain was significantly reduced in the AS group, compared with the AA group at both T 1 and T 2 ( P < 0.01). The flow of the left internal mammary artery-left anterior descending artery graft was superior, and the postoperative concentration of troponin T decreased rapidly in the AS group, compared with the AA group ( P < 0.05). Compared with total intravenous anesthesia, sevoflurane resulted in a significantly higher global longitudinal strain, stroke volume, and cardiac output. Sevoflurane also led to an amelioration in the condition of the arterial graft. Furthermore, sevoflurane significantly reduced strain improvement in the segmental myocardium with a high preoperative strain value. The findings need to be replicated in larger studies.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Postcardiotomy extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) can be initiated intraoperatively or postoperatively based on indications, settings, patient profile, and conditions. The topic of implantation timing only recently gained attention from the clinical community. We compare patient characteristics as well as in-hospital and long-term survival between intraoperative and postoperative ECMO. METHODS The retrospective, multicenter, observational Postcardiotomy Extracorporeal Life Support (PELS-1) study includes adults who required ECMO due to postcardiotomy shock between 2000 and 2020. We compared patients who received ECMO in the operating theater (intraoperative) with those in the intensive care unit (postoperative) on in-hospital and postdischarge outcomes. RESULTS We studied 2003 patients (women: 41.1%; median age: 65 years; interquartile range [IQR], 55.0-72.0). Intraoperative ECMO patients (n = 1287) compared with postoperative ECMO patients (n = 716) had worse preoperative risk profiles. Cardiogenic shock (45.3%), right ventricular failure (15.9%), and cardiac arrest (14.3%) were the main indications for postoperative ECMO initiation, with cannulation occurring after (median) 1 day (IQR, 1-3 days). Compared with intraoperative application, patients who received postoperative ECMO showed more complications, cardiac reoperations (intraoperative: 19.7%; postoperative: 24.8%, P = .011), percutaneous coronary interventions (intraoperative: 1.8%; postoperative: 3.6%, P = .026), and had greater in-hospital mortality (intraoperative: 57.5%; postoperative: 64.5%, P = .002). Among hospital survivors, ECMO duration was shorter after intraoperative ECMO (median, 104; IQR, 67.8-164.2 hours) compared with postoperative ECMO (median, 139.7; IQR, 95.8-192 hours, P < .001), whereas postdischarge long-term survival was similar between the 2 groups (P = .86). CONCLUSIONS Intraoperative and postoperative ECMO implantations are associated with different patient characteristics and outcomes, with greater complications and in-hospital mortality after postoperative ECMO. Strategies to identify the optimal location and timing of postcardiotomy ECMO in relation to specific patient characteristics are warranted to optimize in-hospital outcomes.

Xie Q, Shen Z, Pan M, Li Y, Luo Z, Wang C, Zhao L, Fang Y, Ding X, Teng J, Xu J. Weekend effect on the incidence and outcomes of cardiac surgery associated - acute kidney injury. BMC Cardiovasc Disord 2023; 23:524. [PMID: 37891475 PMCID: PMC10612359 DOI: 10.1186/s12872-023-03431-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/02/2023] [Accepted: 08/05/2023] [Indexed: 10/29/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The effects of surgical day (workdays or weekends) on occurrence and outcome of cardiac surgery associated -acute kidney injury (CSA-AKI) remains unclear. This study aimed to compare the incidence and short-term outcomes of CSA-AKI in patients undergoing surgery on workdays and weekends. MATERIALS AND METHODS Patients who underwent cardiac surgery from July 2020 to December 2020 were retrospectively enrolled in this study. These patients were divided into a weekend group and workday group. The primary endpoint was the incidence of CSA-AKI. The secondary endpoints included renal function recovery and in-hospital mortality. The logistic regression model was used to explore the risk factors for CSA-AKI. Stratification analysis was performed to estimate the association between CSA-AKI and weekend surgery stratified by emergency surgery. RESULTS A total of 1974 patients undergoing cardiac surgery were enrolled. The incidence of CSA-AKI in the weekend group was significantly higher than that in the workday group (42.8% vs. 34.7%, P = 0.038). Further analysis of patients with CSA-AKI showed that there was no difference in renal function recovery between the workday AKI group and weekend AKI group. There was no difference in in-hospital mortality between the weekend group and workday group (3.6% vs. 2.4%, P = 0.327); however, the in-hospital mortality of the weekend AKI group was significantly higher than that of the workday AKI group (8.5% vs. 2.9%, P = 0.014). Weekend surgery and emergency surgery were independent risk factors for CSA-AKI. The multiplicative model showed an interaction between weekend surgery and emergency surgery; weekend surgery was related to an increased risk of AKI among patients undergoing emergency surgery [adjusted OR (95% CI): 1.96 (1.012-8.128)]. CONCLUSIONS The incidence of CSA-AKI in patients undergoing cardiac surgery on weekends was significantly higher compared to that in patients undergoing cardiac surgery on workdays. Weekend surgery did not affect the in-hospital mortality of all patients but significantly increased the mortality of AKI patients. Weekend surgery and emergency surgery were independent risk factors for CSA-AKI. Weekend emergency surgery significantly increased the risk of CSA-AKI.

Comparison of noninvasive cardiac output monitoring by electrical cardiometry with transthoracic echocardiography in postoperative paediatric cardiac surgical patients - A prospective observational study. Ann Card Anaesth 2023; 26:380-385. [PMID: 37861570 PMCID: PMC10691584 DOI: 10.4103/aca.aca_9_23] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/20/2023] [Revised: 03/27/2023] [Accepted: 04/06/2023] [Indexed: 10/21/2023] Open
Abstract
Aim The present study was conducted to validate cardiac output (CO) and cardiac index (CI) obtained from electrical cardiometry (EC) ICON ® with transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) in postoperative pediatric cardiac surgical patients. Materials and Methods A prospective observational study was conducted in 25 pediatric patients with age < 10 years who underwent elective cardiac surgery. Data Analysis BlandAltman plot was constructed for interchangeability and Polar plot was constructed to know trending ability. Results A total of 250 datasets were analyzed. Spearman's correlation coefficient for CO between ICON ® and TTE showed good positive correlation (r = 0.850, 95% confidence interval 0.81 to 0.881, P <.0001). Moderate positive correlation was observed between ICON ® and TTE for CI (r = 0.60, 95% confidence interval 0.515 to 0.674, P <.0001). Linear regression equations for CO and CI between ICON ® and TTE were: y = 0.5230 + 0.8078 X (R2 = 0.6597, P <.001) and y = 1.8350 + 0.5869 X (R2 = 0.3985, P <.001) [y- ICON ®; X - TTE], respectively. BlandAltman plot for CO between ICON ® and TTE showed a bias of 0.3012 with limits of agreement (LOA) being -0.69 to 1.3 and for CI bias was 0.6939 with LOA-2.1 to 3.5. Polar plot analysis showed an angular bias of 8.1750, with radial LOA being -13.74° to 30.08° for CO and angular bias of 6.6931, with radial LOA being -15.69° to 29.07° for CI. Conclusion ICON ® monitor-derived parameters are not interchangeable with the values derived from TTE. However, the ICON ® monitor demonstrated a good trending ability for both CO and CI.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The authors aimed to develop a simple prediction score to help identify patients at high risk of low-cardiac-output syndrome after adult cardiac surgery. DESIGN A single-center, retrospective, observational study. SETTING At a tertiary hospital. PARTICIPANTS Adult patients who underwent on-pump cardiac surgery between April 2016 and March 2021. INTERVENTION None. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS Among the 2,806 patients retained for final analyses, 355 (12.7%) developed low-cardiac-output syndrome. Using a stepwise backward variable selection procedure applied to a multivariate logistic regression, a prediction model, including 8 risk factors, could be identified-preoperative left ventricular ejection fraction, glomerular filtration rate <60 mL/min according to the Cockcroft formula or preoperative dialysis, combined surgery, nonelective surgery, mitral valve surgery for mitral valve regurgitation, history of extracardiac arteriopathy, preoperative hemoglobin <13 g/dL, and New York Heart Association functional class III or IV. A clinical prediction score was derived from the regression coefficients. The model had a good discriminative ability, with an area under the receiver operating characteristics curve of 0.8 (95% CI: 077-0.84). Using a threshold value of 5, the score had a 68% sensitivity, 79% specificity, a positive-predictive value of 33%, and a negative-predictive value of 94%. These results were validated on a validation sample using the bootstrap resampling technique. CONCLUSIONS The authors developed a clinical score to facilitate the prediction of low- cardiac-output syndrome after adult cardiac surgery. This could help tailor patient management by contributing to the early identification of those at high risk of postoperative low cardiac output.

Abstract
Hemodynamic and intravascular volume monitoring has been utilized and significantly improved thanks to the technology revolution. Goal-Directed Therapy (GDT) derived from this advanced monitoring is beneficial for complex surgeries, and it shifted the medical approaches from static therapy to more personalized functional treatments. Conventional monitoring methods such as blood pressure, heart rate, urinary output, and central venous pressure are commonly used. However, studies have shown these routine parameters often cannot precisely estimate the quality of tissue perfusion. Tissue hypoperfusion and hypoxia play a crucial role in initiating a systemic inflammatory response after prolonged surgeries, resulting in unstable hemodynamic condition of the patients. Several studies reported the importance of GDT in non-cardiac surgeries and there are few reports on cardiac surgeries. However, tissue perfusion and fluid management are more critical in complex and prolonged cardiovascular surgeries to avoid complications such as low cardiac output syndrome and renal or pulmonary dysfunction. Different advanced hemodynamic monitorings have been utilized perioperatively in cardiac surgery to help decision-making on inotrope and fluid management. In this article we present 5 cases of usefulness hemodynamic monitoring in patients who underwent cardiovascular surgeries.

Prevention of cardiac surgery-associated acute kidney injury: a systematic review and meta-analysis of non-pharmacological interventions. Crit Care 2023; 27:354. [PMID: 37700297 PMCID: PMC10498585 DOI: 10.1186/s13054-023-04640-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/17/2023] [Accepted: 09/06/2023] [Indexed: 09/14/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Cardiac surgery-associated acute kidney injury (CSA-AKI) is frequent. While two network meta-analyses assessed the impact of pharmacological interventions to prevent CSA-AKI, none focused on non-pharmacological interventions. We aim to assess the effectiveness of non-pharmacological interventions to reduce the incidence of CSA-AKI. METHODS We searched PubMed, Embase, Central and clinical trial registries from January 1, 2004 (first consensus definition of AKI) to July 1, 2023. Additionally, we conducted manual screening of abstracts of major anesthesia and intensive care conferences over the last 5 years and reference lists of relevant studies. We selected all randomized controlled trials (RCTs) assessing a non-pharmacological intervention to reduce the incidence of CSA-AKI, without language restriction. We excluded RCTs of heart transplantation or involving a pediatric population. The primary outcome variable was CSA-AKI. Two reviewers independently identified trials, extracted data and assessed risk of bias. Random-effects meta-analyses were conducted to calculate risk ratios (RRs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs). We used the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development, and Evaluation to assess the quality of evidence. RESULTS We included 86 trials (25,855 patients) evaluating 10 non-pharmacological interventions to reduce the incidence of CSA-AKI. No intervention had high-quality evidence to reduce CSA-AKI. Two interventions were associated with a significant reduction in CSA-AKI incidence, with moderate quality of evidence: goal-directed perfusion (RR, 0.55 [95% CI 0.40-0.76], I2 = 0%; Phet = 0.44) and remote ischemic preconditioning (RR, 0.86 [0.78-0.95]; I2 = 23%; Phet = 0.07). Pulsatile flow during cardiopulmonary bypass was associated with a significant reduction in CSA-AKI incidence but with very low quality of evidence (RR = 0.69 [0.48; 0.99]; I2 = 53%; Phet < 0.01). We found high quality of evidence for lack of effect of restrictive transfusion strategy (RR, 1.02 [95% CI 0.92; 1.12; Phet = 0.67; I2 = 3%) and tight glycemic control (RR, 0.86 [95% CI 0.55; 1.35]; Phet = 0.25; I2 = 26%). CONCLUSIONS Two non-pharmacological interventions are likely to reduce CSA-AKI incidence, with moderate quality of evidence: goal-directed perfusion and remote ischemic preconditioning.

The Value of Stress-Gated Blood Pool SPECT in Predicting Early Postoperative Period Complications in Ischemic Cardiomyopathy Patients: Focus on Mechanical Dyssynchrony. J Clin Med 2023; 12:5328. [PMID: 37629370 PMCID: PMC10455889 DOI: 10.3390/jcm12165328] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/27/2023] [Revised: 08/11/2023] [Accepted: 08/15/2023] [Indexed: 08/27/2023] Open
Abstract
(1) Objective: The objective of this study was to assess the prognostic value of stress-gated blood pool SPECT (GBPS) estimates in patients with ischemic cardiomyopathy (ICM) in the early postoperative period. (2) Methods: A total of 57 patients (age 59.7 ± 6.6, 47 men) with ICM and LV ejection fraction (30 [27.5; 35]%) were enrolled in the study. Before surgical treatment, all patients underwent GBPS (rest-stress, dobutamine doses of 5/10/15 µg/kg/min). Stress-induced changes in left ventricular (LV) ejection fraction, peak ejection rate, volumes, and mechanical dyssynchrony (phase histogram standard deviation, phase entropy (PE), and phase histogram bandwidth) were estimated. Two-dimensional transthoracic echocardiography was performed baseline. Serum levels of NT-proBNP were analyzed with enzyme-linked immunoassay. (3) Results: After surgical treatment, patients were divided into two groups, one, with death, the need for an intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP) or/and inotropic support with a stay in the intensive care unit for more than two days and two, without complications in the early postoperative period (EPOP). Complicated EPOP (CEPOP) was observed in 17 (30%) patients (death-2, IABP-4, extra inotropic support in intensive care unit-11), and 40 patients had no complications (NCEPOP). GBPS showed differences in LV EDV (mL) (321 [268; 358] vs. 268 [242; 313], p = 0.02), LV ESV (mL) (242 [201; 282] vs. 196 [170; 230], p = 0.005), and stress-induced changes in PE (1 (-2; 3) vs. -2 (-4; 0), p = 0.02). Aortic cross-clamp time and stress-induced changes in PE between rest and dobutamine dose of 10 µg/kg/min were the only independent predictors of CEPOP. An increase in LV entropy ≥ 1 on the dobutamine dose of 10µg/kg/min in comparison to rest investigation showed AUC = 0.853 (sensitivity = 62%, specificity = 90%, PPV = 71%; NPV = 85%; p < 0.0001). Conclusion: Stress-induced changes in PE obtained during low-dose dobutamine GBPS are associated with a complicated course of the early postoperative period after surgical treatment for ICM.

Abstract
The study aimed to validate the European System for Cardiac Operative Risk Evaluation score (EuroSCORE II) in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF). All data were retrieved from the National Registry of Cardiac Surgery Procedures (KROK). EuroSCORE II calibration and discrimination performance was evaluated. The final cohort consisted of 44,172 patients (median age 67, 30.8% female, 13.4% with AF). The in-hospital mortality rate was 4.14% (N = 1830), and 5.21% (N = 2303) for 30-day mortality. EuroSCORE II significantly underestimated mortality in mild- and moderate-risk populations [Observed (O):Expected (E)-1.1, 1.16). In the AF subgroup, it performed well [O:E-0.99), whereas in the very high-risk population overestimated mortality (O:E-0.9). EuroSCORE II showed better discrimination in AF (-) [area under curve (AUC) 0.805, 95% CI 0.793-0.817)] than in AF (+) population (AUC 0.791, 95%CI 0.767-0.816), P < 0.001. The worst discriminative performance for the AF (+) group was for coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) (AUC 0.746, 95% CI 0.676-0.817) as compared with AF (-) population (AUC 0.798, 95% CI 0.774-0.822), P < 0.001. EuroSCORE II is more accurate for patients with AF. However, it underestimated mortality rates for low-to-moderate-risk patients and had a lower ability to distinguish between high- and low-risk patients with AF, particularly in those undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Conflicting evidence exists regarding the risks and benefits of inotropic therapies during cardiac surgery, and the extent of variation in clinical practice remains understudied. Therefore, the authors sought to quantify patient-, anesthesiologist-, and hospital-related contributions to variation in inotrope use. METHODS In this observational study, nonemergent adult cardiac surgeries using cardiopulmonary bypass were reviewed across a multicenter cohort of academic and community hospitals from 2014 to 2019. Patients who were moribund, receiving mechanical circulatory support, or receiving preoperative or home inotropes were excluded. The primary outcome was an inotrope infusion (epinephrine, dobutamine, milrinone, dopamine) administered for greater than 60 consecutive min intraoperatively or ongoing upon transport from the operating room. Institution-, clinician-, and patient-level variance components were studied. RESULTS Among 51,085 cases across 611 attending anesthesiologists and 29 hospitals, 27,033 (52.9%) cases received at least one intraoperative inotrope, including 21,796 (42.7%) epinephrine, 6,360 (12.4%) milrinone, 2,000 (3.9%) dobutamine, and 602 (1.2%) dopamine (non-mutually exclusive). Variation in inotrope use was 22.6% attributable to the institution, 6.8% attributable to the primary attending anesthesiologist, and 70.6% attributable to the patient. The adjusted median odds ratio for the same patient receiving inotropes was 1.73 between 2 randomly selected clinicians and 3.55 between 2 randomly selected institutions. Factors most strongly associated with increased likelihood of inotrope use were institutional medical school affiliation (adjusted odds ratio, 6.2; 95% CI, 1.39 to 27.8), heart failure (adjusted odds ratio, 2.60; 95% CI, 2.46 to 2.76), pulmonary circulation disorder (adjusted odds ratio, 1.72; 95% CI, 1.58 to 1.87), loop diuretic home medication (adjusted odds ratio, 1.55; 95% CI, 1.42 to 1.69), Black race (adjusted odds ratio, 1.49; 95% CI, 1.32 to 1.68), and digoxin home medication (adjusted odds ratio, 1.48; 95% CI, 1.18 to 1.86). CONCLUSIONS Variation in inotrope use during cardiac surgery is attributable to the institution and to the clinician, in addition to the patient. Variation across institutions and clinicians suggests a need for future quantitative and qualitative research to understand variation in inotrope use affecting outcomes and develop evidence-based, patient-centered inotrope therapies.

Mete EMT, Bastopcu M, Acarel M. 24th hour vasoactive inotrope score is associated with poor outcome in adult cardiac surgery. REVISTA DA ASSOCIACAO MEDICA BRASILEIRA (1992) 2023; 69:e20221433. [PMID: 37222322 DOI: 10.1590/1806-9282.20221433] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/06/2023] [Accepted: 02/08/2023] [Indexed: 05/25/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to investigate the efficacy of vasoactive inotrope score at the 24th postoperative hour for mortality and morbidity in elective adult cardiac surgery. METHODS Consecutive patients who underwent elective adult coronary artery bypass and valve surgery in a single tertiary center for cardiac surgery between December 2021 and March 2022 were prospectively included. The vasoactive inotrope score was calculated with the dosage of inotropes that were continuing at the 24th postoperative hour. Poor outcome was defined as any event of perioperative mortality or morbidity. RESULTS The study included 287 patients, of whom 69 (24.0%) were on inotropes at the 24th postoperative hour. The vasoactive inotrope score was higher (21.6±22.5 vs. 0.94±2.7, p=0.001) in patients with poor outcome. One unit increase in the vasoactive inotrope score had an odds ratio of 1.24 (95% confidence interval: 1.14-1.35) for poor outcome. The receiver operating characteristic curve of vasoactive inotrope score for poor outcome had an area under the curve of 0.857. CONCLUSION Vasoactive inotrope score at the 24th hour can be a very valuable parameter for risk calculation in the early postoperative period.

Impact of prophylactic intra-aortic balloon pump on early outcomes in patients with severe left ventricular dysfunction undergoing elective coronary artery bypass grafting with cardiopulmonary bypass. Int J Cardiol 2023:S0167-5273(23)00725-8. [PMID: 37209782 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijcard.2023.05.033] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/03/2023] [Revised: 05/14/2023] [Accepted: 05/17/2023] [Indexed: 05/22/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Our aim was to analyse whether prophylactic preoperative intraaortic balloon pump (IABP) improves outcomes in hemodynamically stable patients with low left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF ≤30%) undergoing elective myocardial revascularization (CABG) using cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). Secondary aim was to identify the predictors for low cardiac output syndrome (LCOS). METHODS Prospectively collected data of 207 consecutive patients with LVEF ≤30% undergoing elective isolated CABG with CPB from 01/2009 to 12/2019, 136 with and 71 patients without IABP, were retrieved retrospectively. Patients with prophylactic IABP were matched 1:1 with patients without IABP by a propensity score matching. Stepwise logistic regression was conducted to identify predictors of postoperative LCOS in the propensity-matched cohort. P value ≤0.05 was considered significant. RESULTS Reduced postoperative LCOS (9.9% vs. 26.8%, P = 0.017) was observed in patients receiving prophylactic IABP. Stepwise logistic regression identified preoperative IABP as preventive factor for postoperative LCOS [Odds Ratio (OR) 0.19,95% Confidence Interval (CI), 0.06-0.55, P = 0.004]. The need of vasoactive and inotropic support was lower in patients with prophylactic IABP at 24, 48 and 72 h after surgery (12.3 [8.2-18.6] vs. 22.2 [14.4-28.8], P < 0.001, 7.7 [3.3-12.3] vs.16.3 [8.9-27.8], P < 0.001 and 2.4 [0-7] vs. 11.5 [3.1-26], P < 0.001, respectively). The patients in both groups did not differ in terms of in-hospital mortality (7.0% vs. 9.9%, P = 0.763). There were no major IABP-related complications. CONCLUSIONS Elective patients with left ventricular ejection fraction ≤30% undergoing CABG with CPB and prophylactic IABP insertion had less low cardiac output syndrome and similar in-hospital mortality.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To compare the safety and efficacy of del-Nido cardioplegia (DNC) with traditional 4:1 cold blood cardioplegia (CBC) in coronary artery bypass grafting and/or valve surgeries in elderly patients. METHODS The present study is a retrospective case-series study that included 302 consecutive patients aged 70 years and over who underwent on-pump valve surgery and/or coronary artery bypass graft (CABG). DNC was administered to 90 patients and CBC to 212 patients. After propensity-score matching, 89 pairs were compared. The safety and efficacy were analyzed between the two groups. RESULTS The DNC group had a similar mortality (3.4% vs. 5.6%, OR = 0.79, P = 0.720) and extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) implantation rate (1.1% vs. 2.2%, OR = 0.75, P = 1.000) to the CBC group, a lower incidence of postoperative intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP) implantation (1.1% vs. 9.0%, OR = 0.54, P = 0.034) and a higher left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) at discharge (60 (56-64) % vs. 57 (51-62)%, P = 0.007). The estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) in the DNC group was higher when the patient was transferred to the intensive care unit (79.4 (65.0-94.3) ml/min/1.73m2 vs. 77.2 (59.8-88.7) ml/min/1.73m2, P = 0.014), but no significant differences were identified after 24 h. The serum lactate values of the DNC group were significantly lower than those of the CBC group (0 h: 2.7 (2.0-3.2) vs. 3.2 (2.4-4.4), P = 0.001; 3 h: 3.2 (2.0-4.8) vs. 4.8 (2.8-6.6), P < 0.001; 6 h: 3.5 (2.2-5.4) vs. 5.8 (3.4-8.4), P < 0.001; 9 h: 3.4 (2.0-7.0) vs. 5.5 (2.9-8.3), P = 0.005). There were no differences between the two groups in respect of lactate levels at 12 h and thereafter. Postoperative creatinine kinase-MB concentrations were similar between the two groups. CONCLUSIONS Del-Nido cardioplegia is safe and effective in elderly patients undergoing CABG and/or valve surgery.

Abstract
Although surgical techniques and perioperative care have made significant advances, perioperative mortality in cardiac surgery remains relatively high. Single- or multiple-organ failure remains the leading cause of postoperative mortality. Systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) is a common trigger for organ injury or dysfunction in surgical patients. Cardiac surgery involves major surgical dissection, the use of cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB), and frequent blood transfusions. Ischemia-reperfusion injury and contact activation from CPB are among the major triggers for SIRS. Blood transfusion can also induce proinflammatory responses. Here, we review the immunological mechanisms of organ injury and the role of anesthetic regimens in cardiac surgery.

Abstract
Background Low cardiac output is a common complication following cardiac surgery and it is associated with higher mortality in the pediatric population. A gold standard method for cardiac output (CO) monitoring in the pediatric population is lacking. The present study was conducted to validate cardiac output and cardiac index measured by transthoracic echocardiography and Pressure recording analytical method, a continuous pulse contour method, MostCareUp in postoperative pediatric cardiac surgical patients. Materials and Methods This was a prospective observational clinical study conducted at a tertiary care hospital. A total of 23 pediatric patients weighed between 2 and 20 kg who had undergone elective cardiac surgery were included in the study. Results Spearman's correlation coefficient of CO between transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) and Pressure Recording Analytical Method (PRAM) showed of positive correlation (r = 0.69, 95% Confidence interval 0.59-0.77, P < 0.0001) Linear regression equations for CO between TTE and PRAM were y = 0.55 + 0.88x (R2 = 0.46, P < 0.0001). (y = PRAM, x = TTE), respectively. Bland- Altman plot for CO between TTE and PRAM showed a bias of -0.397 with limits of the agreement being -2.01 to 1.22. Polar plot analysis showed an angular bias of 6.55° with radial limits of the agreement being -21.46 to 34.58 for CO and angular bias of 6.22° with radial limits of the agreement being -22.4 to 34.84 for CI. Conclusion PRAM has shown good trending ability for cardiac output. However, values measured by PRAM are not interchangeable with the values measured by transthoracic echocardiography.

Abstract
Background Fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF-23) is crucial in regulating phosphate and vitamin D metabolism and is moreover associated with an increased cardiovascular risk. The specific objective of this study was to investigate the influence of FGF-23 on cardiovascular outcomes, including hospitalization for heart failure (HHF), postoperative atrial fibrillation, and cardiovascular death, in an unselected patient population after cardiac surgery. Methods and Results Patients undergoing elective coronary artery bypass graft and/or cardiac valve surgery were prospectively enrolled. FGF-23 blood plasma concentrations were assessed before surgery. A composite of cardiovascular death/HHF was chosen as primary end point. A total of 451 patients (median age 70 years; 28.8% female) were included in the present analysis and followed over a median of 3.9 years. Individuals with higher FGF-23 quartiles showed elevated incidence rates of the composite of cardiovascular death/HHF (quartile 1, 7.1%; quartile 2, 8.6%; quartile 3, 15.1%; and quartile 4, 34.3%). After multivariable adjustment, FGF-23 modeled as a continuous variable (adjusted hazard ratio for a 1-unit increase in standardized log-transformed biomarker, 1.82 [95% CI, 1.34-2.46]) as well as using predefined risk groups and quartiles remained independently associated with the risk of cardiovascular death/HHF and the secondary outcomes, including postoperative atrial fibrillation. Reclassification analysis indicated that the addition of FGF-23 to N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide provides a significant improvement in risk discrimination (net reclassification improvement at the event rate, 0.58 [95% CI, 0.34-0.81]; P<0.001; integrated discrimination increment, 0.03 [95% CI, 0.01-0.05]; P<0.001). Conclusions FGF-23 is an independent predictor of cardiovascular death/HHF and postoperative atrial fibrillation in individuals undergoing cardiac surgery. Considering an individualized risk assessment, routine preoperative FGF-23 evaluation may improve detection of high-risk patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The present study was designed to describe the prevalence of norepinephrine use, the factors associated with its use, and the incidence of postoperative complications according to norepinephrine use, in patients undergoing cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass. METHOD We performed a prospective, multicenter, observational study in 4 University-affiliated medico-surgical cardiovascular units. We analyzed all patients treated with cardiac surgery after excluding pre-ECMO surgery, LVAD implantation, heart transplantation and intra-operative hemorrhage. RESULTS Of 9316 patients screened during the study period, 2862 were included and 2510 were analyzed. Among them, 1549 (61%) were treated with norepinephrine with a median maximal dose of 0.11 [0.06-0.2] μg.kg-1.min-1 and a median duration of 10 h [2-24]. Norepinephrine was most often started in the operating room before cardiopulmonary bypass. The multiple regression logistic analysis identified several modifiable (haematocrit, maintenance of beta-blocker, cardiopulmonary bypass time, glucose-insulin-potassium, Custodiol cardioplegia, Delnido cardioplegia, and fibrinogen transfusion) and non-modifiable factors (age, ASA score, chronic high blood pressure, coronary disease, dyslipidemia, right ventricular dysfunction, left ventricular dysfunction, active endocarditis, and valvular aortic surgery) associated with norepinephrine use. Mortality, morbidity (neurological and renal complications, death) and length of stay in the ICU were higher in patients treated with norepinephrine. CONCLUSION Norepinephrine is often used in cardiac surgical patients but for <24 h with a low dose. Many preoperative and surgical factors are associated with norepinephrine use. Patients supported by norepinephrine have a higher incidence of major postoperative events.

Abstract
Surgical approaches for mitral valve exploration vary, with the preferred approach being via the interatrial groove. Data on whether the interatrial groove approach can be used for mitral valve surgery in patients with a previously implanted Amplatzer septal occluder (ASO) (St Jude Medical, an Abbott company) are extremely limited. The authors performed mitral valve surgery using the transatrial septal approach on 2 patients following explantation of an ASO, which significantly impedes the interatrial groove approach. Concomitant surgical procedures with mitral valve replacement, removal of the ASO, and closure of an atrial septal defect with a patch significantly prolonged the cross-clamp and cardiopulmonary bypass durations, which is the reason for intraoperative low cardiac output syndrome. An intra-aortic balloon pump and venoarterial extra-corporeal membrane oxygenation were used in these 2 patients because of low cardiac output syndrome. When planning mitral valve surgery in patients with a previously implanted ASO, the device precludes the interatrial groove approach and can produce an unpredictable clinical scenario.

The relationship between pre-operative right ventricular longitudinal strain and low-cardiac-output syndrome after surgical aortic valve replacement. Front Cardiovasc Med 2023; 10:1067984. [PMID: 36742070 PMCID: PMC9892705 DOI: 10.3389/fcvm.2023.1067984] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/12/2022] [Accepted: 01/04/2023] [Indexed: 01/20/2023] Open
Abstract
Objectives This study was performed to investigate the relationship between right ventricular free wall longitudinal strain (RVFWSL) and low cardiac output syndrome (LCOS) after surgical aortic valve replacement (SAVR) and to further explore its association with readmission within 2 years in patients who developed LCOS after SAVR. Methods This single-center retrospective observational study involved consecutive patients who underwent SAVR at our hospital from May 2018 to June 2020. Preoperative echocardiography was obtained within 3 days before SAVR. The longitudinal strain of the right ventricle was analyzed using the right ventricle as the main section, and the RVFWSL and right ventricular four-chamber longitudinal strain (RV4CSL) were obtained. The primary observation was the occurrence of LCOS. The secondary prognostic indicators were mainly the readmission rates within 2 years. Results In total, 146 patients were finally included in this study. The RVFWSL was significantly lower in the LCOS group than in the No-LCOS group (16.63 ± 2.10) vs. (23.95 ± 6.33), respectively; P < 0.001). The multivariate regression analysis showed that the RVFWSL was associated with LCOS (odds ratio, 1.676; 95% confidence interval, 1.258-2.232; P < 0.001). The receiver operating characteristic curve showed that the cut-off value for RVFWSL to predict LCOS was less than -18.3, with an area under the curve of 0.879, sensitivity of 100%, and specificity of 80.47%. The multivariate regression analysis showed that LCOS was an independent risk factor for readmission within 2 years in patients undergoing SAVR. Conclusion Patients with RVFWSL (<-18.3%) may be an increased risker for LCOS after SAVR. The occurrence of LCOS after SAVR is Yong-jian Zhang a risk factor for readmission within 2 years. Right ventricular function monitoring may have some predictive value for the postoperative prognosis in patients undergoing SAVR.

Study of the accuracy of a radial arterial pressure waveform cardiac output measurement device after cardiac surgery. J Cardiothorac Surg 2023; 18:32. [PMID: 36650554 PMCID: PMC9843904 DOI: 10.1186/s13019-023-02128-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/12/2022] [Accepted: 01/02/2023] [Indexed: 01/18/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Less invasive monitoring, such as radial arterial pulse contour analysis (ProAQT® sensor), represents an alternative when hemodynamic monitoring is necessary to guide postoperative management and invasive monitoring is not technically feasible. The aim of the study is to evaluate the accuracy of the ProAQT® sensor cardiac output measurements in comparison with Pulmonary Artery Catheter (PAC) during the postoperative course of patients who underwent cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass. CASE PRESENTATION Prospective observational study in a Surgical Intensive Care Unit of a tertiary university hospital. Ten patients with a mean age of 73.5 years were included. The main comorbidities were hypertension, diabetes, dyslipidemia and the preoperative left ejection fraction was 43.8 ± 14.5%. Regarding the type of surgery, six patients underwent valve surgery, two underwent coronary artery bypass grafting and two underwent aortic surgery. The cardiac index measured simultaneously by the ProAQT® sensor was compared with the PAC. The parameters were evaluated at predefined time points during the early postoperative courses (6 h, 12 h, 24 h, 48 h and 72 h). The degree of agreement with the cardiac index between the PAC and the ProAQT® sensor along the time points was measured using the concordance correlation coefficient, Bland-Altman analysis, and four-quadrant plot. Sixty-three pairs of measurements were analyzed. We showed that measurements of cardiac index were slightly higher with PAC (β ̂ = - 0.146, p-value = 0.094). The concordance correlation coefficient for the additive model of cardiac index was 0.64 (95% Confidence Interval: 0.36, 0.82), indicating a high concordance between both sensors. Bland-Altmann analysis showed a mean bias of 0.45 L·min-1·m-2, limits of agreement from - 1.65 to 2.3 L·min-1·m-2, and percentage of error was 82.5%. Four-quadrant plot of changes in cardiac index showed a good concordance rate (75%), which increases after applying the exclusion zone (87%). CONCLUSIONS In patients undergoing cardiac surgery, the ProAQT® sensor may be useful to monitor cardiac index during the postoperative period, especially when more invasive monitoring is not possible.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Custodiol® and St. Thomas cardioplegia are widely employed in mini-thoracotomy mitral valve (MV) operations. One-dose of the former provides 3 h of myocardial protection. Conversely, St. Thomas solution is usually reinfused every 30 min and safety of single delivery is unknown. We aimed to compare single-shot St. Thomas versus Custodiol® cardioplegia. METHODS Primary endpoint of the prospective observational study was cardiac troponin T level at different post-operative time-points. Propensity-weighted treatment served to adjust for confounding factors. RESULTS Thirty-nine patients receiving St. Thomas were compared with 25 patients receiving Custodiol® cardioplegia; cross-clamping always exceeded 45 min. No differences were found in postoperative markers of myocardial injury. Ventricular fibrillation at the resumption of electric activity was more frequent following Custodiol® cardioplegia (P = .01). CONCLUSION Effective myocardial protection exceeding 1 h of ischemic arrest can be achieved with a single-dose St. Thomas cardioplegia in selected patients undergoing right mini-thoracotomy MV surgery.

Abstract
Background: To describe the average effects and the interindividual variability after a comprehensive outpatient cardiovascular rehabilitation (CCR) program using concurrent exercise training prescribed according to cardiovascular risk stratification on cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF), anthropometric/body composition, quality of life and emotional health in patients of four cardiovascular disease profiles. Methods: CRF, anthropometric/body composition, quality of life, and emotional health were measured before and after a CCR and analyzed in heart valve surgery (HVS), heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF), post-acute myocardial infarction (post-AMI), and in coronary artery disease (CAD) patients. Twenty, twenty-four, and thirty-two exercise sessions were prescribed according to mild, moderate, and severe baseline cardiovascular risk, respectively. In addition to concurrent exercise training, nutritional counseling, psychological support, and lifestyle education programs were performed. Results: The main outcomes by delta changes comparisons (Δ) revealed no significant differences at anthropometric/body composition as ΔBody fat decreases (HVS Δ−1.1, HFrEF Δ−1.0, post-AMI Δ−1.4, CAD Δ−1.2 kg) and ΔSkeletal muscle mass increases (HVS Δ+1.4, HFrEF Δ+0.8, post-AMI Δ+0.9, CAD Δ+0.9 kg), and CRF performance as ΔVO2peak increases (HVS Δ+4.3, HFrEF Δ+4.8, post-AMI Δ+4.1, CAD Δ+5.1 mL/kg/min) outcomes among HVS, HFrEF, post-AMI, and CAD (p > 0.05). Secondary outcomes showed significant pre-post delta changes in METs (HVS Δ+1.8, HFrEF Δ+0.7, post-AMI Δ+1.4, CAD Δ+1.4), and maximal O2pulse (HVS Δ+3.1, post-AMI Δ+2.1, CAD Δ+1.9). In addition, quality of life had a significant improvement in physical functioning (HVS Δ+17.0, HFrEF Δ+12.1, post-AMI Δ+9.8, CAD Δ+11.2), physical role (HVS Δ+28.4, HFrEF Δ+26.8, post-AMI Δ+25.6, CAD Δ+25.3), vitality (HVS Δ+18.4, HFrEF Δ+14.3, post-AMI Δ+14.2, CAD Δ+10.6) and social functioning (HVS Δ+20.4, HFrEF Δ+25.3, post-AMI Δ+20.4, CAD Δ+14.8) in all cardiovascular disease. For anxiety (HVS Δ−3.6, HFrEF Δ−2.3, post-AMI Δ−3.0, CAD Δ−3.1) and depression (HVS Δ−2.8, HFrEF Δ−3.4, post-AMI Δ−3.2, CAD Δ−2.3) significant changes were also observed. Conclusions: A CCR program that prescribes the number of exercise sessions using a cardiovascular risk stratification improves CRF, QoL, and emotional health, and the average results show a wide interindividual variability (~25% of non-responders) in this sample of four CVD profile of patients.

Abstract
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is one of the most common major complications of cardiac surgery, and is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. Cardiac surgery-associated AKI has a complex, multifactorial etiology, including numerous factors such as primary cardiac dysfunction, hemodynamic derangements of cardiac surgery and cardiopulmonary bypass, and the possibility of a large volume of blood transfusion. There are no truly effective pharmacologic therapies for the management of AKI, and, therefore, anesthesiologists, intensivists, and cardiac surgeons must remain vigilant and attempt to minimize the risk of developing renal dysfunction. This narrative review describes the current state of the scientific literature concerning the specific aspects of cardiac surgery-associated AKI, and presents it in a chronological fashion to aid the perioperative clinician in their approach to this high-risk patient group. The evidence was considered for risk prediction models, preoperative optimization, and the intraoperative and postoperative management of cardiac surgery patients to improve renal outcomes.

Abstract
AIMS High-risk cardiac surgery is commonly complicated by low cardiac output syndrome (LCOS), which is associated with high mortality. There are limited data derived from multi-centre studies with adjudicated endpoints describing factors associated with LCOS and its downstream clinical outcomes. METHODS AND RESULTS The Levosimendan in Patients with Left Ventricular Systolic Dysfunction Undergoing Cardiac Surgery Requiring Cardiopulmonary Bypass (LEVO-CTS) trial evaluated prophylactic levosimendan vs. placebo in patients with a reduced ejection fraction undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) and/or valve surgery. We conducted a pre-specified analysis on LCOS, which was characterized by a four-part definition. We constructed a multivariable logistical regression model to evaluate risk factors associated with LCOS and performed Cox proportional hazards modelling to determine the association of LCOS with 90-day mortality. A total of 186 (22%) of 849 patients in the LEVO-CTS trial developed LCOS. The factors most associated with a higher adjusted risk of LCOS were pre-operative ejection fraction [odds ratio (OR) 1.26; 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.08-1.46 per 5% decrease] and age (OR 1.13; 95% CI: 1.04-1.24 per 5-year increase), whereas isolated CABG surgery (OR 0.44, 95% CI: 0.31-0.64) and levosimendan use (OR 0.65; 95% CI: 0.46-0.92) were associated with a lower risk of LCOS. Patients with LCOS had worse outcomes, including renal replacement therapy at 30-day (10 vs. 1%) and 90-day mortality (16 vs. 3%, adjusted hazard ratio of 5.04, 95% CI: 2.66-9.55). CONCLUSION Low cardiac output syndrome is associated with a high risk of post-operative mortality in high-risk cardiac surgery.

Abstract
This manuscript is one component of a larger series of articles produced by the Neonatal Cardiac Care Collaborative that are published in this supplement of Pediatrics. In this review article, we summarize the contemporary physiologic principles, evaluation, and management of acute care issues for neonates with complex congenital heart disease. A multidisciplinary team of authors was created by the Collaborative's Executive Committee. The authors developed a detailed outline of the manuscript, and small teams of authors were assigned to draft specific sections. The authors reviewed the literature, with a focus on original manuscripts published in the last decade, and drafted preliminary content and recommendations. All authors subsequently reviewed and edited the entire manuscript until a consensus was achieved. Topics addressed include cardiopulmonary interactions, the pathophysiology of and strategies to minimize the development of ventilator-induced low cardiac output syndrome, common postoperative physiologies, perioperative bleeding and coagulation, and common postoperative complications.

Prediction of Postoperative Deterioration in Cardiac Surgery Patients Using Electronic Health Record and Physiologic Waveform Data. Anesthesiology 2022; 137:586-601.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Postoperative hemodynamic deterioration among cardiac surgical patients can indicate or lead to adverse outcomes. Whereas prediction models for such events using electronic health records or physiologic waveform data are previously described, their combined value remains incompletely defined. The authors hypothesized that models incorporating electronic health record and processed waveform signal data (electrocardiogram lead II, pulse plethysmography, arterial catheter tracing) would yield improved performance versus either modality alone. METHODS Intensive care unit data were reviewed after elective adult cardiac surgical procedures at an academic center between 2013 and 2020. Model features included electronic health record features and physiologic waveforms. Tensor decomposition was used for waveform feature reduction. Machine learning-based prediction models included a 2013 to 2017 training set and a 2017 to 2020 temporal holdout test set. The primary outcome was a postoperative deterioration event, defined as a composite of low cardiac index of less than 2.0 ml min-1 m-2, mean arterial pressure of less than 55 mmHg sustained for 120 min or longer, new or escalated inotrope/vasopressor infusion, epinephrine bolus of 1 mg or more, or intensive care unit mortality. Prediction models analyzed data 8 h before events. RESULTS Among 1,555 cases, 185 (12%) experienced 276 deterioration events, most commonly including low cardiac index (7.0% of patients), new inotrope (1.9%), and sustained hypotension (1.4%). The best performing model on the 2013 to 2017 training set yielded a C-statistic of 0.803 (95% CI, 0.799 to 0.807), although performance was substantially lower in the 2017 to 2020 test set (0.709, 0.705 to 0.712). Test set performance of the combined model was greater than corresponding models limited to solely electronic health record features (0.641; 95% CI, 0.637 to 0.646) or waveform features (0.697; 95% CI, 0.693 to 0.701). CONCLUSIONS Clinical deterioration prediction models combining electronic health record data and waveform data were superior to either modality alone, and performance of combined models was primarily driven by waveform data. Decreased performance of prediction models during temporal validation may be explained by data set shift, a core challenge of healthcare prediction modeling. EDITOR’S PERSPECTIVE

Predictors and clinical outcomes of post-coronary artery bypass grafting cerebrovascular strokes. Egypt Heart J 2022; 74:76. [PMID: 36255549 DOI: 10.1186/s43044-022-00315-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/04/2022] [Accepted: 10/07/2022] [Indexed: 11/06/2022] Open
Abstract
Abstract
Background
Despite the improved medical and surgical managements, still there is a significant risk of developing acute cerebrovascular strokes after coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). Our objectives were to study the immediate and long-term outcomes after CABG and to identify the possible predictors of post-CABG strokes.
Results
Between January 2016 and August 2020, 410 adult patients, mostly males (82.2%), were retrospectively enrolled after CABG. Acute postoperative strokes occurred in 31 (7.5%) patients; of them, 30 (96.8%) patients had ischemic stroke, while 1 (3.2%) had hemorrhagic stroke. Mechanical thrombectomy was done in two cases. The patients who developed acute cerebral stroke had significantly higher admission (p = 0.02) and follow-up (p < 0.001) SOFA scores, higher arterial blood lactate level (p < 0.001), longer hospitalization (p < 0.001) and more hospital mortality (p < 0.001) compared with the patients who did not develop stroke. Kaplan–Meier curves for 5-year mortality showed increased risk in those patients with postoperative stroke (HR: 23.03; 95% CI: 6.10–86.92, p < 0.001). After multivariate regression, the predictors of early postoperative stroke were carotid artery stenosis (CAS), postoperative atrial fibrillation, cardiopulmonary bypass time, prior cerebral stroke, admission SOFA score and chronic kidney disease (CKD). The predictors of late cerebrovascular stroke were CAS, combined CABG and valve surgery, CKD, atrial fibrillation, prior stroke and HbA1c.
Conclusions
The development of post-CABG acute cerebrovascular stroke is associated with longer hospitalization, multiple morbidities and increased mortality. Careful assessment and management of risk factors especially atrial fibrillation and carotid artery stenosis should be implemented to decrease this substantial complication after CABG.

Abstract
ObjectivesLow cardiac output syndrome (LCOS) is a serious complication after cardiac surgery. Despite scientific interest in LCOS, there is no uniform definition used in current research and clinicians cannot properly compare different study findings. We aimed to collect the LCOS definitions used in literature and subsequently applied the definitions obtained to existing data to estimate their effect on the intraoperative LCOS incidences in adults, children and infants.DesignThis is a literature review, followed by a retrospective cohort study.SettingThis is a single-institutional study from a university hospital in the Netherlands.ParticipantsPatients from all ages undergoing cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass between June 2011 and August 2018.InterventionsWe obtained different definitions of LCOS used in the literature and applied these to data obtained from an anesthesia information management system to estimate intraoperative incidences of LCOS. We compared intraoperative incidences of LCOS in different populations based on age (infants, children and adults).Measurements and main resultsThe literature search identified 262 LCOS definitions, that were applied to intraoperative data from 7,366 patients. Using the 10 most frequently published LCOS definitions, the obtained incidence estimates ranged from 0.4 to 82% in infants, from 0.6 to 56% in children and from 1.5 to 91% in adults.ConclusionThere is an important variety in definitions used to describe LCOS. When applied to data obtained from clinical care, these different definitions resulted in large distribution of intraoperative LCOS incidence rates. We therefore advocate for standardization of the LCOS definition to improve clinical understanding and enable adequate comparison of outcomes and treatment effects both in daily care and in research.

Abstract
Background Lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) has been reported in multiple heart diseases. Herein, we explored the prognostic effects of preoperative LDH on adverse outcomes in cardiac surgery patients. Methods Retrospective data analysis was conducted from two large medical databases: Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care (MIMIC) III and MIMIC IV databases. The primary outcome was in-hospital mortality, whereas the secondary outcomes were 1-year mortality, continuous renal replacement therapy, prolonged ventilation, and prolonged length of intensive care unit and hospital stay. Results Patients with a primary endpoint had significantly higher levels of LDH (p < 0.001). Multivariate regression analysis presented that elevated LDH was independently correlated with increased risk of primary and secondary endpoints (all p < 0.001). Subgroup analyses showed that high LDH was consistently associated with primary endpoint. Moreover, LDH exhibited the highest area under the curve (0.768) for the prediction of primary endpoint compared to the other indicators, including neutrophil–lymphocyte ratio (NLR), lymphocyte-monocyte ratio (LMR), platelet–lymphocyte ratio (PLR), lactate, and simplified acute physiology score (SAPS) II. The above results were further confirmed in the MIMIC IV dataset. Conclusions Elevated preoperative LDH may be a robust predictor of poor prognosis in cardiac surgery patients, and its predictive ability is superior to NLR, LMR, PLR, lactate, and SAPS II.

Abstract
BackgroundThis study aimed to develop machine learning models to predict Low Cardiac Output Syndrome (LCOS) in patients following cardiac surgery using machine learning algorithms.MethodsThe clinical data of cardiac surgery patients in Nanjing First Hospital between June 2019 and November 2020 were retrospectively extracted from the electronic medical records. Six conventional machine learning algorithms, including logistic regression, support vector machine, decision tree, random forest, extreme gradient boosting and light gradient boosting machine, were employed to construct the LCOS predictive models with all predictive features (full models) and selected predictive features (reduced models). The discrimination of these models was evaluated by the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) and the calibration of the models was assessed by the calibration curve. Shapley Additive explanation (SHAP) and Local Interpretable Model-Agnostic Explanations (LIME) were used to interpret the predictive models.ResultsData from 1,585 patients [982 (62.0%) were male, aged 18 to 88, 212 (13.4%) with LCOS] were employed to train and validate the LCOS models. Among the full models, the RF model (AUC: 0.909, 95% CI: 0.875–0.943; Sensitivity: 0.849, 95% CI: 0.724–0.933; Specificity: 0.835, 95% CI: 0.796–0.869) and the XGB model (AUC: 0.897, 95% CI: 0.859–0.935; Sensitivity: 0.830, 95% CI: 0.702–0.919; Specificity: 0.809, 95% CI: 0.768–0.845) exhibited well predictive power for LCOS. Eleven predictive features including left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), first post-operative blood lactate (Lac), left ventricular diastolic diameter (LVDd), cumulative time of mean artery blood pressure (MABP) lower than 65 mmHg (MABP < 65 time), hypertension history, platelets level (PLT), age, blood creatinine (Cr), total area under curve above threshold central venous pressure (CVP) 12 mmHg and 16 mmHg, and blood loss during operation were used to build the reduced models. Among the reduced models, RF model (AUC: 0.895, 95% CI: 0.857–0.933; Sensitivity: 0.830, 95% CI: 0.702–0.919; Specificity: 0.806, 95% CI: 0.765–0.843) revealed the best performance. SHAP and LIME plot showed that LVEF, Lac, LVDd and MABP < 65 time significantly contributed to the prediction model.ConclusionIn this study, we successfully developed several machine learning models to predict LCOS after surgery, which may avail to risk stratification, early detection and management of LCOS after cardiac surgery.

Abstract
Background Low cardiac output syndrome (LCOS) is the most serious physiological abnormality with high mortality for patients after cardiac surgery. This study aimed to explore the multidimensional data of clinical features and outcomes to provide individualized care for patients with LCOS. Methods The electronic medical information of the intensive care units (ICUs) was extracted from a tertiary hospital in South China. We included patients who were diagnosed with LCOS in the ICU database. We used the consensus clustering approach based on patient characteristics, laboratory data, and vital signs to identify LCOS subgroups. The consensus clustering method involves subsampling from a set of items, such as microarrays, and determines to cluster of specified cluster counts (k). The primary clinical outcome was in-hospital mortality and was compared between the clusters. Results A total of 1,205 patients were included and divided into three clusters. Cluster 1 (n = 443) was defined as the low-risk group [in-hospital mortality =10.1%, odds ratio (OR) = 1]. Cluster 2 (n = 396) was defined as the medium-risk group [in-hospital mortality =25.0%, OR = 2.96 (95% CI = 1.97–4.46)]. Cluster 3 (n = 366) was defined as the high-risk group [in-hospital mortality =39.2%, OR = 5.75 (95% CI = 3.9–8.5)]. Conclusion Patients with LCOS after cardiac surgery could be divided into three clusters and had different outcomes.

Abstract
Background Low cardiac output is the main cause of perioperative death after pericardiectomy for constrictive pericarditis. We investigated the associated risk factors and consequences. Methods We selected constrictive pericarditis patients undergoing isolated pericardiectomy from January 2013 to January 2021. Postoperative low cardiac output was defined as requiring mechanical circulatory support or more than one inotrope to maintain a cardiac index > 2.2 L •min−1 •m−2 without hypoperfusion, despite adequate filling status. Uni- and multivariable analysis were used to identify factors associated with low cardiac output. Cox regression was used to identify factors associated with length of hospital stay. Results Among 212 patients with complete data, 55 (25.9%) developed low cardiac output within postoperative day 1 (quartiles 1 and 2), which caused seven of the nine perioperative deaths. The rates of atrial arrhythmia, renal dysfunction, hypoalbuminemia, modest-to-severe hyponatremia, and hyperbilirubinemia caused by constrictive pericarditis were 9.4%, 12.3%, 49.1%, 10.4%, and 81.6%. The mean preoperative central venous pressure and cardiac index were 18 ± 5 cmH2O and 1.87 ± 0.45 L•min−1•m−2. Univariable analysis showed that low cardiac output patients had higher rates of atrial arrhythmia (OR 3.32 [1.35, 8.17], P = 0.007), renal dysfunction (OR 4.24 [1.94, 9.25], P < 0.001), hypoalbuminemia (OR 1.99 [1.06, 3.73], P = 0.031) and hyponatremia (OR 6.36 [2.50, 16.20], P < 0.001), greater E peak velocity variation (difference 2.8 [0.7, 5.0], P = 0.011), higher central venous pressure (difference 3 [2,5] cmH2O, P < 0.001) and lower cardiac index (difference − 0.27 [− 0.41, − 0.14] L•min−1•m−2, P < 0.001) than patients without low cardiac output. Multivariable regression showed that atrial arrhythmia (OR 4.04 [1.36, 12.02], P = 0.012), renal dysfunction (OR 2.64 [1.07, 6.50], P = 0.035), hyponatremia (OR 3.49 [1.19, 10.24], P = 0.023), high central venous pressure (OR 1.17 [1.08, 1.27], P < 0.001), and low cardiac index (OR 0.36 [0.14, 0.92], P = 0.032) were associated with low cardiac output (AUC 0.79 [0.72–0.86], P < 0.001). Cox regression analysis showed that hyperbilirubinemia (HR 0.66 [0.46, 0.94], P = 0.022), renal dysfunction (HR 0.51 [0.33, 0.77], P = 0.002), and low cardiac output (HR 0.42 [0.29, 0.59], P < 0.001) were associated with length of hospital stay. Conclusions Early recognition and management of hyponatremia, renal dysfunction, fluid retention, and hyperbilirubinemia may benefit constrictive pericarditis patients after pericardiectomy.

Sutureless and Rapid Deployment Versus Sutured Aortic Valve Replacement: a Propensity Matched Comparison from the Sutureless and Rapid Deployment International Registry. Eur J Cardiothorac Surg 2022; 62:6625655. [PMID: 35775935 DOI: 10.1093/ejcts/ezac378] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/04/2022] [Revised: 06/16/2022] [Accepted: 06/29/2022] [Indexed: 11/12/2022] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To compare procedural and in-hospital outcomes of patients undergoing sutureless (Perceval, Livanova PLC, London, UK) and rapid deployment (Intuity Elite, Edwards Lifesciences, Irvine, USA) aortic valve replacement (group 1) versus sutured aortic valve replacement (group 2). METHODS Patients receiving isolated aortic valve replacement between 2014 and 2020 were analysed using data from the Sutureless and Rapid Deployment International Registry. Patients in group 1 and group 2 were propensity-score matched in a 1:1 ratio. RESULTS A total of 7708 patients were included in the study. After matching, 2 groups of 2643 each were created. Patients in group 1 were more likely to undergo minimally invasive approaches and were associated with shorter operative times when compared with group 2. Overall in-hospital mortality was similar between groups. While an increased risk of stroke was observed in group 1 in the first study period (2014-2016) (relative risk 3.76, p < 0.001), no difference was found in more recent year period (relative risk 1.66, p = 0.08)(p for heterogeneity 0.003). Group 1 was associated with reduced rates of postoperative low cardiac output syndrome, atrial fibrillation and mild aortic regurgitation. New pacemaker implant was three-fold higher in group 1. CONCLUSIONS Our findings showed significant differences in procedural and clinical outcomes between the study groups. These results suggest that sutureless and rapid deployment aortic valve replacement should be considered as part of a comprehensive valve program. The knowledge of the respective post-aortic valve replacement benefits for different valve technologies may result in patient-tailored valve selection with improved clinical outcomes.

Associated factors and clinical outcomes in mechanical circulatory support use in patients undergoing high risk on-pump cardiac surgery: Insights from the LEVO-CTS trial. Am Heart J 2022; 248:35-41. [PMID: 35263653 DOI: 10.1016/j.ahj.2022.02.013] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/29/2021] [Revised: 02/22/2022] [Accepted: 02/22/2022] [Indexed: 11/01/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND We describe variables and outcomes associated with peri-operative mechanical circulatory support (MCS) utilization among patients enrolled in the Levosimendan in patients with Left Ventricular Systolic Dysfunction Undergoing Cardiac Surgery Requiring Cardiopulmonary Bypass (LEVO-CTS) trial. METHODS In the LEVO-CTS trial, MCS utilization (defined as intra-aortic balloon pump, extracorporeal membrane oxygenation, or surgical ventricular assist device) within 5 days of surgery was examined. The association between MCS use and outcomes including 90-day mortality, 30-day renal-replacement therapy, and hospital and critical stay length of stay were determined. RESULTS Among the 849 patients from 70 centers randomized to levosimendan or placebo, 85 (10.0%) patients were treated with MCS (71 intra-aortic balloon pump, 7 extracorporeal membrane oxygenation, 7 ventricular assist device); with 89.4% started on post-operative day 0. Inter-institutional use ranged from 0% to 100%. Variables independently associated with MCS utilization included combined coronary artery bypass grafting and valve surgery (adjusted odds ratio [OR] 2.73, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.70-4.37, P < .001), history of lung disease (OR 1.70, 95% CI 1.06-2.70, P = .029), and history of heart failure (OR 2.44, 95% CI 1.10-5.45, P = .027). Adjusted 90-day mortality (22.4% vs 4.1%, hazard ratio 6.11, 95% CI 3.95-9.44, P < .001) was higher, and median critical care length of stay (8.0 vs 4.0 days, P < .001) was longer in patients managed with MCS. CONCLUSIONS In a randomized controlled trial of high-risk cardiac surgical patients in North America, we observed patient, and surgical variables associated with MCS utilization. MCS use was associated with a higher risk of post-operative mortality.
