[PMID: 38778128 PMCID: PMC11111670 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-024-62601-2] [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: 02/11/2024] [Accepted: 05/20/2024] [Indexed: 05/25/2024] Open
Abstract
Prolonged mechanical ventilation (PMV) is commonly associated with increased post-operative complications and mortality. Nevertheless, the predictive factors of PMV after lung transplantation (LTx) using extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) as a bridge remain unclear. The present study aimed to develop a novel nomogram for PMV prediction in patients using ECMO as a bridge to LTx. A total of 173 patients who used ECMO as a bridge following LTx from January 2022 to June 2023 were divided into the training (122) and validation sets (52). A mechanical ventilation density plot of patients after LTx was then performed. The training set was divided in two groups, namely PMV (95) and non-prolonged ventilation (NPMV) (27). For the survival analysis, the effect of PMV was assessed using the log-rank test. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were performed to assess factors associated with PMV. A risk nomogram was established based on the multivariate analysis, and model performance was further assessed in terms of calibration, discrimination, and clinical usefulness. Internal validation was additionally conducted. The difference in survival curves in PMV and NPMV groups was statistically significant (P < 0.001). The multivariate analysis and risk factors in the nomogram revealed four factors to be significantly associated with PMV, namely the body mass index (BMI), operation time, lactic acid at T0 (Lac), and driving pressure (DP) at T0. These four factors were used to develop a nomogram, with an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.852 and good calibration. After internal validation, AUC was 0.789 with good calibration. Furthermore, goodness-of-fit test and decision-curve analysis (DCA) indicated satisfactory performance in the training and internal validation sets. The proposed nomogram can reliably and accurately predict the risk of patients to develop PMV after LTx using ECMO as a bridge. Four modifiable factors including BMI, operation time, Lac, and DP were optimized, which may guide preventative measures and improve prognosis.

Textbook outcome in lung transplantation: Planned venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation versus off-pump support for patients without pulmonary hypertension. J Heart Lung Transplant 2022; 41:1628-1637. [PMID: 35961827 PMCID: PMC10403788 DOI: 10.1016/j.healun.2022.07.015] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/06/2022] [Revised: 06/22/2022] [Accepted: 07/13/2022] [Indexed: 11/27/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Planned venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA ECMO) is increasingly used during bilateral orthotopic lung transplantation (BOLT) and may be superior to off-pump support for patients without pulmonary hypertension. In this single-institution study, we compared rates of textbook outcome between BOLTs performed with planned VA ECMO or off-pump support for recipients with no or mild pulmonary hypertension. METHODS Patients with no or mild pulmonary hypertension who underwent isolated BOLT between 1/2017 and 2/2021 with planned off-pump or VA ECMO support were included. Textbook outcome was defined as freedom from intraoperative complication, 30-day reintervention, 30-day readmission, post-transplant length of stay >30 days, 90-day mortality, 30-day acute rejection, grade 3 primary graft dysfunction at 48 or 72 hours, post-transplant ECMO, tracheostomy within 7 days, inpatient dialysis, reintubation, and extubation >48 hours post-transplant. Textbook outcome achievement was compared between groups using multivariable logistic regression. RESULTS Two hundred thirty-seven BOLTs were included: 68 planned VA ECMO and 169 planned off-pump. 14 (20.6%) planned VA ECMO and 27 (16.0%) planned off-pump patients achieved textbook outcome. After adjustment for prior BOLT, lung allocation score, ischemic time, and intraoperative transfusions, planned VA ECMO was associated with higher odds of textbook outcome than planned off-pump support (odds ratio 3.89, 95% confidence interval 1.58-9.90, p = 0.004). CONCLUSIONS At our institution, planned VA ECMO for isolated BOLT was associated with higher odds of textbook outcome than planned off-pump support among patients without pulmonary hypertension. Further investigation in a multi-institutional cohort is warranted to better elucidate the utility of this strategy.

Abstract
Lung transplantation has a high risk of haemodynamic complications in a highly vulnerable patient population. The effects on the cardiovascular system of the various underlying end-stage lung diseases also contribute to this risk. Following a literature review and based on our own experience, this review article summarises the current trends and their evidence for intraoperative circulatory support in lung transplantation. Identifiable and partly modifiable risk factors are mentioned and corresponding strategies for treatment are discussed. The approach of first identifying risk factors and then developing an adjusted strategy is presented as the ERSAS (early risk stratification and strategy) concept. Typical haemodynamic complications discussed here include right ventricular failure, diastolic dysfunction caused by left ventricular deconditioning, and reperfusion injury to the transplanted lung. Pre- and intra-operatively detectable risk factors for the occurrence of haemodynamic complications are rare, and the therapeutic strategies applied differ considerably between centres. However, all the mentioned risk factors and treatment strategies can be integrated into clinical treatment algorithms and can influence patient outcome in terms of both mortality and morbidity.

Abstract
Acute kidney injury (AKI) after lung transplantation (LTx) is a common complication. We aimed to assess whether donation after circulatory death (DCD) is associated with an increased risk of AKI and renal replacement therapy (RRT) in the early postoperative period compared to the donation after brain death (DBD). Retrospective data on a cohort (N = 95) of LTx patients (DCD n = 17, DBD n = 78) characterized by no use of ex-vivo lung perfusion were analyzed for the incidence of AKI within 30 postoperative days and incidence of RRT within 7 and 30 days. After optimal full matching, an imbalance remained between the DCD and DBD patients in respect to intraoperative use of cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). Therefore, a further subset (n = 77) was defined that excluded CPB patients, and matching was repeated (DCD n = 13 vs. DBD n = 63) resulting in a fair balance on a range of preoperative characteristics and intraoperative use of ECMO. In both matched subsets, DCD was associated with around twice higher risk of AKI and RRT within 7 and 30 postoperative days. In conclusion, data suggest that DCD could be associated with worse early renal outcomes in a subset of LTx patients and justify further studies on the topic in order to refine further renal care pathways perioperatively.

Transpl Int 2021; 34:906-915. [PMID: 33724575 DOI: 10.1111/tri.13862] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/26/2020] [Revised: 03/09/2021] [Accepted: 03/10/2021] [Indexed: 12/15/2022]
Abstract
Although the use of donation after circulatory death (DCD) donors has increased lung transplant activity, 25-40% of intended DCD donors do not convert to actual donation because of no progression to asystole in the required time frame after withdrawal of cardiorespiratory support (WCRS). No studies have specifically focussed on DCD lung donor progression. This retrospective study reviewed intended DCD lung donors to make a prediction model of the likelihood of progression to death using logistic regression and classification and regression tree (CART). Between 2014 and 2018, 159 of 334 referred DCD donors were accepted, with 100 progressing to transplant, while 59 (37%) did not progress. In logistic regression, a length of ICU stay ≤ 5 days, severe infra-tentorial brain damage on imaging and use of vasopressin were related with the progression to actual donation. CART modelling of the likelihood of death within 90-minute post-WCRS provided prediction with a sensitivity of 1.00 and positive predictive value of 0.56 in the validation data set. In the nonprogressed DCD group, 26 died within 6 h post-WCRS. Referral received early after ICU admission, with nonspontaneous ventilatory mode, deep coma and severe infra-tentorial damage were relevant predictors. The CART model is useful to exclude DCD donor candidates with low probability of progression.
