Lasers Surg Med 2021; 54:426-432. [PMID: 34658052 DOI: 10.1002/lsm.23486] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/03/2021] [Revised: 09/23/2021] [Accepted: 10/06/2021] [Indexed: 11/09/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning is responsible for nearly 50,000 emergency department visits and 1200 deaths per year. Compared to oxygen, CO has a 250-fold higher affinity for hemoglobin (Hb), resulting in the displacement of oxygen from Hb and impaired oxygen delivery to tissues. Optimal treatment of CO-poisoned patients involves the administration of hyperbaric 100% oxygen to remove CO from Hb and to restore oxygen delivery. However, hyperbaric chambers are not widely available and this treatment requires transporting a CO-poisoned patient to a specialized center, which can result in delayed treatment. Visible light is known to dissociate CO from carboxyhemoglobin (COHb). In a previous study, we showed that a system composed of six photo-extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) devices efficiently removes CO from a large animal with CO poisoning. In this study, we tested the hypothesis that the application of hyperbaric oxygen to the photo-ECMO device would further increase the rate of CO elimination. STUDY DESIGN/MATERIAL AND METHODS We developed a hyperbaric photo-ECMO device and assessed the ability of the device to remove CO from CO-poisoned human blood. We combined four devices into a "hyperbaric photo-ECMO system" and compared its ability to remove CO to our previously described photo-ECMO system, which was composed of six devices ventilated with normobaric oxygen. RESULTS Under normobaric conditions, an increase in oxygen concentration from 21% to 100% significantly increased CO elimination from CO-poisoned blood after a single pass through the device. Increased oxygen pressure within the photo-ECMO device was associated with higher exiting blood PO2 levels and increased CO elimination. The system of four hyperbaric photo-ECMO devices removed CO from 1 L of CO-poisoned blood as quickly as the original, normobaric photo-ECMO system composed of six devices. CONCLUSION This study demonstrates the feasibility and efficacy of using a hyperbaric photo-ECMO system to increase the rate of CO elimination from CO-poisoned blood. This technology could provide a simple portable emergency device and facilitate immediate treatment of CO-poisoned patients at or near the site of injury.

In Vitro Comparison of Two Neonatal ECMO Circuits Using a Roller or Centrifugal Pump With Three Different In-Line Hemoconcentrators for Maintaining Hemodynamic Energy Delivery to the Patient. Artif Organs 2018; 42:354-364. [PMID: 29323409 DOI: 10.1111/aor.13073] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/17/2017] [Revised: 09/05/2017] [Accepted: 10/05/2017] [Indexed: 01/02/2023]
Abstract
The objective of this study was to compare three different hemoconcentrators (Hemocor HPH 400, Mini, and Junior) with two different neonatal ECMO circuits using a roller or a centrifugal pump at different pseudo-patient pressures and flow rates in terms of hemodynamic properties. This evidence-based research is necessary to optimize the ECMO circuitry for neonates. The circuits used a 300-mL soft-shell reservoir as a pseudo-patient approximating the blood volume of a 3 kg neonate, two blood pumps, and a Quadrox-iD Pediatric oxygenator with three different in-line hemoconcentrators (Hemocor HPH 400, Mini, and Junior). One circuit used a Maquet H20 roller pump and another circuit used a Maquet RotaFlow centrifugal pump. The circuit was primed with lactated Ringer's solution followed by heparinized packed red blood cells with a hematocrit of 40%. The pseudo-patient's pressure was manually maintained at 40, 60, or 80 mm Hg and the flow rate was maintained at 200, 400, or 600 mL/min with a circuit temperature of 36°C. Pressure and flow data was recorded using a custom-made data acquisition device. Mean pressures, diverted blood flow, pressure drops, and total hemodynamic energy (THE) were calculated for each experimental condition. The roller pump and centrifugal pump performed similarly for all hemodynamic properties with all experimental conditions. The Hemocor HPH Junior hemoconcentrator added the highest resistance to the circuit. The Hemocor HPH Junior provided the highest circuit pressures, lowest diverted blood flow, highest pressure drop across the circuit, and highest THE generated by the pump. The Hemocor HPH 400 added the least resistance to the circuit, providing the lowest circuit pressures, more diverted flow, lowest pressure drop, and the lowest THE generated by the pump. However, the THE delivered to the patient was the same for the three hemoconcentrators. While the three hemoconcentrators performed differently in terms of hemodynamic properties throughout the circuit, the THE transmitted to the patient was similar for all three hemoconcentrators due to the consistent pseudo-patient's pressure that was manually maintained for each trial. While the THE delivered to the patient indicates similar perfusion for these patients with any of the three hemoconcentrators, the differences in added resistance to the circuit may impact the decision of which hemoconcentrator is used. There was no clinically significant difference between the two circuits with the roller versus centrifugal pump in terms of hemodynamic properties in this study. Further in vivo research is warranted to confirm our findings.

Evaluation of Combined Extracorporeal Life Support and Continuous Renal Replacement Therapy on Hemodynamic Performance and Gaseous Microemboli Handling Ability in a Simulated Neonatal ECLS System. Artif Organs 2017; 42:365-376. [PMID: 28940550 DOI: 10.1111/aor.12987] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/21/2017] [Revised: 05/23/2017] [Accepted: 05/24/2017] [Indexed: 11/29/2022]
Abstract
The objective of this study was to evaluate the hemodynamic performance and gaseous microemboli (GME) handling ability of a simulated neonatal extracorporeal life support (ECLS) circuit with an in-line continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) device. The circuit consisted of a Maquet RotaFlow centrifugal pump or HL20 roller pump, Quadrox-iD Pediatric diffusion membrane oxygenator, 8-Fr arterial cannula, 10-Fr venous cannula, and Better-Bladder (BB) with "Y" connector. A second Quadrox-I Adult oxygenator was added postarterial cannula for GME experiments. The circuit and pseudo-patient were primed with lactated Ringer's solution and packed human red blood cells (hematocrit 40%). All hemodynamic trials were conducted at ECLS flow rates ranging from 200 to 600 mL/min and CRRT flow rate of 75 mL/min at 36°C. Real-time pressure and flow data were recorded with a data acquisition system and GME were detected and characterized using the Emboli Detection and Classification Quantifier System. CRRT was added at distinct locations such that blood entered CRRT between the pump and oxygenator (A), recirculated through the pump (B), or bypassed the pump (C). With the centrifugal pump, all CRRT positions had similar flow rates, mean arterial pressure (MAP), and total hemodynamic energy (THE) loss. With the roller pump, C demonstrated increased flow rates (293.2-686.4 mL/min) and increased MAP (59.4-75.5 mm Hg) (P < 0.01); B had decreased flow rates (129.7-529.7 mL/min), and MAP (34.2-45.0 mm Hg) (P < 0.01); A maintained the same when compared to without CRRT. At 600 mL/min C lost more THE (81.4%) (P < 0.01) with a larger pressure drop across the oxygenator (95.6 mm Hg) (P < 0.01) than without CRRT (78.3%; 49.1 mm Hg) (P < 0.01). C also demonstrated a poorer GME handling ability using the roller pump, with 87.1% volume and 17.8% count reduction across the circuit, compared to A and B with 99.9% volume and 65.8-72.3% count reduction. These findings suggest that, in contrast to A and B, adding CRRT at position C is unsafe and not advised for clinical use.

Abstract
As it is common for patients treated with extracorporeal life support (ECLS) to subsequently require continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT), and neonatal patients encounter limitations due to lack of access points, inclusion of CRRT in the ECLS circuit could provide advanced treatment for this population. The objective of this study was to evaluate an alternative neonatal ECLS circuit containing either a Maquet RotaFlow centrifugal pump or Maquet HL20 roller pump with one of seven configurations of CRRT using the Prismaflex 2000 System. All ECLS circuit setups included a Quadrox-iD Pediatric diffusion membrane oxygenator, a Better Bladder, an 8-Fr arterial cannula, a 10-Fr venous cannula, and 6 feet of ¼-inch diameter arterial and venous tubing. The circuit was primed with lactated Ringer's solution and packed human red blood cells resulting in a total priming volume of 700 mL for both the circuit and the 3-kg pseudopatient. Hemodynamic data were recorded for ECLS flow rates of 200, 400, and 600 mL/min and a CRRT flow rate of 50 mL/min. When a centrifugal pump is used, the hemodynamic performance of any combined ECLS and CRRT circuit was not significantly different than that of the circuit without CRRT, thus any configuration could potentially be used. However, introduction of CRRT to a circuit containing a roller pump does affect performance properties for some CRRT positions. The circuits with CRRT positions B and G demonstrated decreased total hemodynamic energy (THE) levels at the post-arterial cannula site, while positions D and E demonstrated increased post-arterial cannula THE levels compared to the circuit without CRRT. CRRT positions A, C, and F did not have significant changes with respect to pre-arterial cannula flow and THE levels, compared to the circuit without CRRT. Considering hemodynamic performance, for neonatal combined extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) and CRRT circuits with both blood pumps, we recommend the use of CRRT position A due to its hemodynamic similarities to the ECMO circuit without CRRT.
