Abstract
Cardiac surgery-associated acute kidney injury (CS-AKI) occurs in approximately 65% of neonates undergoing cardiac surgery on cardiopulmonary bypass and contributes to morbidity and mortality. Caffeine may reduce CS-AKI by counteracting adenosine receptor upregulation after bypass, but pharmacokinetics (PK) in this population are unknown. The goal of our analysis is to address knowledge gaps in age-, disease-, and bypass-related effects on caffeine disposition and explore preliminary associations between caffeine exposure and CS-AKI using population PK modeling techniques and an opportunistic, electronic health record-integrated trial design. We prospectively enrolled neonates receiving preoperative caffeine per standard of care and collected PK samples. We retrospectively identified neonates without caffeine exposure undergoing surgery on bypass as a control cohort. We followed US Food and Drug Administration guidance for population PK model development using NONMEM. Effects of clinical covariates on PK parameters were evaluated. We simulated perioperative exposures and used multivariable logistic regression to evaluate the association between caffeine exposure and CS-AKI. Twenty-seven neonates were included in model development. A 1-compartment model with bypass time as a covariate on clearance and volume of distribution best fit the data. Twenty-three neonates with caffeine exposure and 109 controls were included in the exposure-response analysis. Over half of neonates developed CS-AKI. On multivariable analysis, there were no significant differences between CS-AKI with and without caffeine exposure. Neonates with single-ventricle heart disease without CS-AKI had consistently higher simulated caffeine exposures. Our results highlight areas for further study to better understand disease- and bypass-specific effects on drug disposition and identify populations where caffeine may be beneficial.

Adv Biomed Res 2024; 13:3. [PMID: 38525389 PMCID: PMC10958727 DOI: 10.4103/abr.abr_145_23] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/30/2023] [Revised: 07/23/2023] [Accepted: 07/30/2023] [Indexed: 03/26/2024] Open
Abstract
Background This study investigated the clinical outcomes at the minimum and maximum levels of hematocrit (HCT) during cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) in low-risk patients undergoing coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery. Materials and Methods In this cross-sectional study, 85 patients who underwent CABG with an ejection fraction of greater than 35% were selected. Based on the HCT range during CPB, patients were divided into two groups: minimum HCT: HCT = 16-18% and maximum HCT: HCT = 25-27%. Then the operation outcomes, amount of drainage, and transfusion were recorded and compared between these groups. Results In the middle tube 8 h after surgery and left tube 24 h after surgery, the amount of drainage in the minimum HCT group with mean of 71.00 ± 130.9 and 60.65 ± 71.23, respectively, was significantly lower than the maximum HCT group with mean of 101.5 ± 246.50 and 123.76 ± 93.17, respectively (P value < 0.05). The incidence of cognitive disorders in the maximum HCT group was significantly higher than in the minimum HCT group (11.1% vs. 0%, P value = 0.041). Also, the mean transfusion of packed red blood cell (PRBC) and fresh frozen plasm (FFP) during CPB in the maximum HCT group, with mean of 346.7 ± 86.22 and 396.1 ± 21.05, respectively, were significantly higher than the minimum HCT group with mean of 178.8 ± 80.91 and 136.8 ± 46.77, respectively (P value < 0.05). After CPB, there was no significant difference in transfusion products (P value > 0.05). Conclusion According to the results of this study, patients undergoing CABG surgery with maximum HCT level versus minimum HCT level during CPB, need more packed cells and fresh frozen plasma products transfusion, which will be associated with the complication of cognitive impairment.

Abstract
Thousands of pediatric patients suffering from cardiomyopathy or single ventricular physiologies secondary to debilitating heart defects may benefit from long-term mechanical circulatory support due to the limited number of donor hearts available. This article presents the initial design of a fully implantable centrifugal pediatric ventricular assist device (PVAD) for 2 to 12 year olds. Conventional pump design equations, including a nondimensional scaling approach, enabled performance estimations of smaller scale versions (25 mm and 35 mm impeller diameters) of our adult support VAD. Based on this estimated performance, a computational model of the PVAD with a 35 mm impeller diameter was generated. Employing computational fluid dynamics (CFD) software, the flow paths through the PVAD and overall performance were analyzed for steady state flow conditions. The numerical simulations involved flow rates of 2 to 5 LPM for rotational speeds of 2750 to 3250 RPM and incorporated a k-epsilon fluid turbulence model with a logarithmic wall function to characterize near-wall flow conditions. The CFD results indicated best efficiency points ranging from 25% to 28%, which correlate well with typical values of blood pumps. The results further demonstrated that the pump could deliver 2 to 5 LPM at 70 to 95 mmHg for desired physiologic conditions in resting 2 to 12 year olds. Scalar stress levels remained below 300 Pa, thereby signifying potentially low levels of hemolysis. Several flow regions in the pump exhibited signs of vortices, retrograde flow, and stagnation points, which require optimization and further study. This CFD model represents a reasonable starting point for future model enhancements, leading to prototype manufacturing and experimental validation.

Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate the metabolic and oxidative effects of sevoflurane and propofol in children undergoing surgery for correction of congenital heart disease. METHODS Twenty children with acyanotic congenital heart disease, scheduled for elective cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass, age range 1 day to 14 years were randomly assigned to 2 groups: Group GP, programmed to receive total intravenous anesthesia with propofol and group GS scheduled to use balanced anesthesia with sevoflurane. Exclusion criteria were cyanotic heart disease or complex, association with other malformations, severe systemic diseases, infection or children undergoing treatment and palliative or emergency surgery. Blood samples were collected at three different time-points: T0, after radial artery cannulation, T1, 30 minutes after cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) launch and T2, at the end of procedure. Parameters analyzed included thiobarbituric acid-reactive substance (TBARS), glutathione (GLN), lactate and pyruvate plasmatic concentrations. RESULTS TBARS, GSH, lactate and pyruvate concentrations did not change significantly by Friedman´s test. Lactate/pyruvate ratio (L/P) was >10 in both groups. There was a moderate Pearson correlation for TBARS, in T1 (r=0.50; p=0.13) e T2 (r=0.51;p=0.12). Pearson correlation was high between groups during CPB (T1) for lactate (r=0.68; p=0.02), pyruvate (r=0.75; p=0.01) and L/P ratio (r=0.83; p=0.003). CONCLUSION Anesthetic techniques investigated in this study showed a similar pattern, with no increase in metabolic substrates and oxidative stress during surgical correction of congenital heart defects in non-cyanotic children.

Abstract
Cold pediatric cardiac surgery has been a dogma for 50 years. However, the beneficial effects of cold perfusion are counterbalanced by the drawbacks of hypothermia. Thus, we propose a major paradigm shift from hypothermic surgery to warm perfusion and intermittent warm blood cardioplegia. This approach gives satisfactory results even with prolonged aortic crossclamp times. The major advantages are reduced time to extubation and shorter intensive care unit stay. Warm pediatric surgery is an anecdotal phenomenon no more; over 10,000 procedures have been carried out in Europe. All types of cardiopathy have been treated, including arterial switch, total pulmonary anomalous venous return, interruption of the aortic arch, and hypoplastic left heart syndrome. Once surgeons decide to shift from hypothermia to normothermia, they never decide to shift back to hypothermia. This fact is evidence of the satisfactory clinical outcome obtained with this technique. The technique and the composition of microplegia is identical in all European centers, the only variable factor being the interval between microplegia injections, which varies from 10 to 25 min. We hope that the increasing interest in pediatric warm surgery will hearten new candidates.

Abstract
Therapeutic hypothermia, introduced more than 5 decades ago, remains an important neuroprotective factor in the surgery for the correction of congenital heart disease, in particular when intraoperative circulatory arrest is required. Hypothermia decreases cerebral metabolism and energy consumption and reduces the extent of degenerative processes such as the excitotoxic cascade, apoptotic and necrotic cell death, microglial activation, oxidative stress, and inflammation. Neurological outcome has become the focus of several studies in the recent years, and deep hypothermic circulatory arrest durations of more than 40 minutes are associated with increased mid- and long-term disability. Physiologic cerebral flow-metabolism coupling seems to be preserved with moderate and mild hypothermia, but cerebral blood flow autoregulation is probably altered after deep hypothermic circulatory arrest, suggesting disordered cerebral metabolism and oxygen use. Although evidence from animal studies suggests potential benefit from very low temperatures, postoperative development of choreoathetosis has been found to correlate with the degree of intraoperative hypothermia, recommending the use of central temperatures greater than 15 degrees C in the clinical practice. Cooling times longer than 20 minutes are needed to obtain homogeneous brain cooling and effective neuroprotection. Finally, there is evidence that the sites of temperature monitoring used in the clinical practice may underestimate brain temperature after cardiopulmonary bypass, with the risk of postoperative hyperthermic brain damage.

Abstract
Deep hypothermic circulatory arrest (DHCA) has been used for the past 50 years in the surgical repair of complex congenital cardiac malformations and operations involving the aortic arch; it enables the surgeon to achieve precise anatomical reconstructions by creating a bloodless operative field. Nevertheless, DHCA has been associated with immediate and late neurodevelopmental morbidities. This review provides an overview of the pathophysiology of neonatal hypoxic brain injury after DHCA, focusing on cellular mechanisms of necrosis, apoptosis, and glutamate excitotoxicity. Techniques and strategies in neonatal brain protection include hypothermia, acid base blood gas management during cooling, and pharmacologic interventions such as the use of volatile anesthetics. Surgical techniques consist of intermittent cerebral perfusion during periods of circulatory arrest and continuous regional brain perfusion.
