Einenkel AM, Salameh A. Selective vulnerability of hippocampal CA1 and CA3 pyramidal cells: What are possible pathomechanisms and should more attention be paid to the CA3 region in future studies? J Neurosci Res 2024; 102:e25276. [PMID: 38284845 DOI: 10.1002/jnr.25276] [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: 02/28/2023] [Revised: 06/22/2023] [Accepted: 10/29/2023] [Indexed: 01/30/2024]
Abstract
Transient ischemia and reperfusion selectively damage neurons in brain, with hippocampal pyramidal cells being particularly vulnerable. Even within hippocampus, heterogeneous susceptibility is evident, with higher vulnerability of CA1 versus CA3 neurons described for several decades. Therefore, numerous studies have focused exclusively on CA1. Pediatric cardiac surgery is increasingly focusing on studies of hippocampal structures, and a negative impact of cardiopulmonary bypass on the hippocampus cannot be denied. Recent studies show a shift in selective vulnerability from neurons of CA1 to CA3. This review shows that cell damage is increased in CA3, sometimes stronger than in CA1, depending on several factors (method, species, age, observation period). Despite a highly variable pattern, several markers illustrate greater damage to CA3 neurons than previously assumed. Nevertheless, the underlying cellular mechanisms have not been fully deciphered to date. The complexity is reflected in possible pathomechanisms discussed here, with numerous factors (NMDA, kainate and AMPA receptors, intrinsic oxidative stress potential and various radicals, AKT isoforms, differences in vascular architecture, ratio of pro- and anti-apoptotic Bcl-2 factors, vulnerability of interneurons, mitochondrial dysregulation) contributing to either enhanced CA1 or CA3 vulnerability. Furthermore, differences in expressed genome, proteome, metabolome, and transcriptome in CA1 and CA3 appear to influence differential behavior after damaging stimuli, thus metabolomics-, transcriptomics-, and proteomics-based analyses represent a viable option to identify pathways of selective vulnerability in hippocampal neurons. These results emphasize that future studies should focus on the CA3 field in addition to CA1, especially with regard to improving therapeutic strategies after ischemic/hypoxic brain injury.

Performance of the transoesophageal echocardiography probe as an oesophageal temperature monitor in patients undergoing cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass: a prospective observational study. Eur J Cardiothorac Surg 2023; 64:ezad242. [PMID: 37341638 DOI: 10.1093/ejcts/ezad242] [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: 03/07/2023] [Revised: 05/26/2023] [Accepted: 06/20/2023] [Indexed: 06/22/2023] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVES Core temperature monitoring is critical during cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). In this prospective observational study, we investigated the performance of the transoesophageal echocardiography (TOE) probe for core (oesophageal) temperature monitoring during CPB. METHODS Thirty adult patients, 18-70 years of either gender, undergoing cardiac surgery with CPB were enrolled. All patients received a reusable nasopharyngeal probe for monitoring core temperatures. In addition, the oesophageal temperatures were monitored with the TOE probe. The arterial outlet temperatures at the membrane oxygenator were also monitored and taken as the reference standard. Monitoring was performed every 5 min until 20 min, and then at 30 min during both the cooling and rewarming periods. RESULTS During cooling, the oesophageal and nasopharyngeal temperatures lagged behind the arterial outlet temperatures. However, the intra-class correlation of the oesophageal temperatures with the arterial outlet temperatures was better (range 0.58-0.74) than the correlation of the nasopharyngeal temperatures with the arterial outlet temperatures (range 0.46-0.62). During rewarming, the performance of the TOE probe was significantly superior to the nasopharyngeal probe. After 15 and 20 min of rewarming, there was a difference of ∼1°C between the oesophageal and nasopharyngeal temperatures. At 30 min of rewarming, the oesophageal and the arterial outlet temperatures were similar, while the nasopharyngeal temperatures still lagged by 0.5°C. Bias was significantly less both during cooling and warming between the oesophageal temperatures and arterial outlet temperatures. CONCLUSIONS Performance of the TOE probe as an oesophageal temperature probe is superior to the nasopharyngeal probe during CPB.

Abstract
BACKGROUND After pediatric cardiosurgical interventions, postoperative delirium can occur, which can be associated with undesirable consequences during and after the hospital stay. It is therefore important to avoid any factors causing delirium as far as possible. Electroencephalogram (EEG) monitoring can be used during anesthesia to individually adjust dosages of hypnotically acting drugs. It is necessary to gain knowledge about the relationship between intraoperative EEG and postoperative delirium in children. METHODS In a dataset comprising 89 children (53 male, 36 female; median age: 0.99 (interquartile range: 0.51, 4.89) years) undergoing cardiac surgery involving use of a heart-lung machine, relationships between depth of anesthesia as measured by EEG (EEG index: Narcotrend Index (NI)), sevoflurane dosage, and body temperature were analyzed. A Cornell Assessment of Pediatric Delirium (CAP-D) score ≥ 9 indicated delirium. RESULTS The EEG could be used in patients of all age groups for patient monitoring during anesthesia. In the context of induced hypothermia, EEG monitoring supported individually adjusted sevoflurane dosing. The NI was significantly correlated with the body temperature; decreasing temperature was accompanied by a decreasing NI. A CAP-D score ≥ 9 was documented in 61 patients (68.5%); 28 patients (31.5%) had a CAP-D < 9. Delirious patients with an intubation time ≤ 24 h showed a moderate negative correlation between minimum NI (NImin) and CAP-D (rho = -0.41, 95% CI: -0.70 - -0.01, p = 0.046), i.e., CAP-D decreased with increasing NImin. In the analysis of all patients' data, NImin and CAP-D showed a weak negative correlation (rho = -0.21, 95% CI: -0.40 - 0.01, p = 0.064). On average, the youngest patients had the highest CAP-D scores (p = 0.002). Patients with burst suppression / suppression EEG had a longer median intubation time in the intensive care unit than patients without such EEG (p = 0.023). There was no relationship between minimum temperature and CAP-D score. CONCLUSIONS The EEG can be used to individually adjust sevoflurane dosing during hypothermia. Of the patients extubated within 24 h and classified as delirious, patients with deeper levels of anesthesia had more severe delirium symptoms than patients with lighter levels of anesthesia.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Patients undergoing cardiac surgery can experience significant thermal changes during the perioperative period and, for that reason, it is essential to monitor temperatures with adequate accuracy and precision during cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). The primary aim of the current study was to measure the discrepancies between temperatures at different body sites during normothermic or mild hypothermic CPB. METHODS 48 patients undergoing cardiac surgery participated in our study. Simultaneous temperatures were measured at nasopharynx, pulmonary artery, arterial outlet, venous inlet, forehead using a heat flux sensor, and urinary bladder at 5-min intervals throughout surgery. The Bland-Altman plot for repeated measures was used to assess concordance between methods. RESULTS The duration of surgery was 360 min (interquartile range (IQR) 300-412), while the median cross-clamp time was 135 min (IQR 101-169). During the CPB time, the average difference between arterial outlet and nasopharyngeal temperature was -0.16°C (95% limits of agreement of ±0.93). The bias between arterial outlet and the venous inflow was 0.16°C and the 95% limits of agreement were -0.63 to 0.95°C. The Bland-Altman analysis showed an average difference between oxigenator arterial outlet and bladder probe of -0.62 (95% limits of agreement of ±1.3). The average difference between arterial outlet and Tcore™ temperatures was 0.08°C (95% limits of agreement of ±1.46). 25 patients (52.08%) presented nasopharyngeal temperatures higher than 37°C in the post-CPB period, but none of them exceeded 38°C. CONCLUSIONS Perfusionists should be cautious when using the nasopharyngeal site as the only surrogate of brain temperature, even in normothermic cardiac surgery because the precision of measurements is not entirely adequate.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Hypothermia after open-heart surgery can have potential side effects for patients. AIM This study aimed to examine the effects of rewarming on patients' hemodynamic and arterial blood gases parameters after open-heart surgery. METHODS This randomized controlled trial was performed in 2019 on 80 patients undergoing open-heart surgery at Tehran Heart Center, Iran. The subjects were consecutively recruited and randomly assigned to an intervention group (n=40) and a control group (n=40). After the surgery, the intervention group was warmed with an electric warming mattress while the control group warmed using a simple hospital blanket. The hemodynamic parameters of the two groups were measured 6 times and arterial blood gas was measured 3 times. Data were analyzed by independent samples t and Chi-squared tests, and repeated measures analysis. RESULTS Before the intervention, the two groups did not significantly differ in terms of hemodynamic and blood gas parameters. However, the two groups were significantly different in the mean heart rate, systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, mean arterial blood pressure, temperature, right and left lung drainage in the first half-hour, and the first to fourth hours after the intervention (p < 0.05). Furthermore, there was a significant difference between the mean arterial oxygen pressure of the two groups during and after rewarming (P <0.05). CONCLUSION Rewarming of patients after open-heart surgery can significantly affect hemodynamic and arterial blood gas parameters. Therefore, rewarming methods can be used safely to improve the patients' hemodynamic parameters after open-heart surgery.

Abstract
Congenital heart defect (CHD) surgeries are performed with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) and are complicated by several factors that affect the child's brain. However, to date, the number of studies on brain protection in cardiac surgery remains small. The aim of this study was to assess the impact of refraining from using packed red blood cells (PRBCs) in priming solutions in children with congenital defects (CHDs) who require surgical interventions using CPB to prevent brain injury in the postoperative period. MATERIAL AND METHODS This study included 40 children, and the mean age was 14 (12-22.5) months and the mean weight was 8.8 (7.25-11) kg. All patients underwent CHD closure using CPB. The patients were divided into two groups depending on the use of PRBCs in the priming solution. Brain injury was assessed using three specific blood serum markers, namely S100 calcium-binding protein β (S100β), neuron-specific enolase (NSE) and glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) before surgery, after the completion of CPB and 16 h after surgery (first, second and third control points). Markers of systemic inflammatory response were also analyzed, including interleukin-1, -6, -10 and tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α). A clinical assessment of brain injury was carried out using a valid, rapid, observational tool for screening delirium in children of this age group, i.e., "Cornell Assessment of Pediatric Delirium". RESULTS Factors of the intra- and postoperative period were analyzed, such as hemoglobin levels, oxygen delivery (cerebral tissue oxygenation, blood lactate level and venous oxygen saturation) and indicators of organ dysfunction (creatinine, urea, bilirubin levels, duration of CPB and length of stay in the ICU). Following the procedure, there were no significant differences between the groups and all indicators were within the reference values, thus demonstrating the safety of CHD closure without transfusion. Moreover, the highest level of specific markers of brain injury were noted immediately after the completion of CPB in both groups. The concentration of all three markers was significantly higher in the group with transfusion after the completion of CPB. Moreover, GFAP levels were higher in the transfusion group and 16 h after surgery. CONCLUSIONS The results of the study show the safety and effectiveness of brain injury prevention strategies that consist of not conducting PRBC transfusion.

Abstract
In addition to attaining complete or near complete cytoreduction, the instillation of select heated chemotherapeutic agents into the abdominal cavity has offered a chance for cure or longer survival inpatients with peritoneal surface malignancies. While the heating of chemotherapeutic agents enhances cytotoxicity, the resulting systemic hyperthermia has been associated with an increased risk of severe hyperthermia and its associated complications. Factors that have been associated with an increased risk of severe hyperthermia include intraoperative blood transfusions and longer perfusion duration. However, the development of severe hyperthermia still remains largely unpredictable. Thus, at several institutions, cooling protocols are employed during cytoreductive surgery with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (CRS-HIPEC). Cooling protocols for CRS-HIPEC are not standardized and may be associated with episodes of severe hyperthermia or alternatively hypothermia. In theory, excessive cooling could result in a decreased effectiveness of the intraperitoneal chemotherapeutic agents. This presumption has been supported by a recent study of 214 adults undergoing CRS-HIPEC, where failure to attain a temperature of 38° C at the end of chemo-perfusion was associated with worse survival. Although not statistically significant, failure to maintain a temperature of 38° C for at least 30 minutes was associated with worse survival. Although studies are limited in this regard, the importance of maintaining a steady state of temperature during the hyperthermic phase of intraperitoneal chemotherapy administration cannot be disregarded. The following article describes the processes and physiological mechanisms responsible for hyperthermia during CRS-HIPEC. The challenges associated with temperature management during CRS-HIPEC and methods to avoid severe hypothermia and hyperthermia are also described.

Abstract
Introduction: Using a porcine model of accidental immersion hypothermia and hypothermic cardiac arrest (HCA), the aim of the present study was to compare effects of different rewarming strategies on CPB on need for vascular fluid supply, level of cardiac restitution, and cerebral metabolism and pressures. Materials and Methods: Totally sixteen healthy, anesthetized castrated male pigs were immersion cooled to 20°C to induce HCA, maintained for 75 min and then randomized into two groups: 1) animals receiving CPB rewarming to 30°C followed by immersion rewarming to 36°C (CPB30, n = 8), or 2) animals receiving CPB rewarming to 36°C (CPB36, n = 8). Measurements of cerebral metabolism were collected using a microdialysis catheter. After rewarming to 36°C, surviving animals in both groups were further warmed by immersion to 38°C and observed for 2 h. Results: Survival rate at 2 h after rewarming was 5 out of 8 animals in the CPB30 group, and 8 out of 8 in the CPB36 group. All surviving animals displayed significant acute cardiac dysfunction irrespective of rewarming method. Differences between groups in CPB exposure time or rewarming rate created no differences in need for vascular volume supply, in variables of cerebral metabolism, or in cerebral pressures and blood flow. Conclusion: As 3 out of 8 animals did not survive weaning from CPB at 30°C, early weaning gave no advantages over weaning at 36°C. Further, in surviving animals, the results showed no differences between groups in the need for vascular volume replacement, nor any differences in cerebral blood flow or pressures. Most prominent, after weaning from CPB, was the existence of acute cardiac failure which was responsible for the inability to create an adequate perfusion irrespective of rewarming strategy.

Abstract
Cerebral infarction, a common central nervous system complication after adult cardiac surgery, is one of the main factors leading to the poor prognosis of cardiac surgery patients besides cardiac insufficiency. However, there is currently no effective treatment for cerebral infarction. Therefore, early prevention and diagnosis of postoperative cerebral infarction are particularly important. There are many factors and mechanisms during and after cardiac surgery that play an important role in the occurrence of postoperative cerebral infarction, such as intraoperative embolism, systemic inflammatory response syndrome, atrial fibrillation, temperature regulation, blood pressure control, use of postoperative blood products, and so forth. The mechanism by which most risk factors act on the human body, leading to postoperative cerebral infarction, is not well understood, and further research is needed. Therefore, this paper aims to summarize and explain the relevant risk factors, mechanisms, clinical signs, imaging characteristics, and early diagnosis methods of cerebral infarction complications after cardiac surgery, and provides useful data for the establishment of related diagnosis and treatment standards.

Abstract
Importance Compared with normothermia, hypothermia has been shown to reduce death or disability in neonatal hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy but data on seizures during rewarming and associated outcomes are scarce. Objective To determine whether electrographic seizures are more likely to occur during rewarming compared with the preceding period and whether they are associated with abnormal outcomes in asphyxiated neonates receiving hypothermia therapy. Design, Setting, and Participants This prespecified nested cohort study of infants enrolled in the Optimizing Cooling (OC) multicenter Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) Neonatal Research Network trial from December 2011 to December 2013 with 2 years' follow-up randomized infants to either 72 hours of cooling (group A) or 120 hours (group B). The main trial included 364 infants. Of these, 194 were screened, 10 declined consent, and 120 met all predefined inclusion criteria. A total of 112 (90%) had complete data for death or disability. Data were analyzed from January 2018 to January 2020. Interventions Serial amplitude electroencephalography recordings were compared in the 12 hours prior and 12 hours during rewarming for evidence of electrographic seizure activity by 2 central amplitude-integrated electroencephalography readers blinded to treatment arm and rewarming epoch. Odds ratios and 95% CIs were evaluated following adjustment for center, prior seizures, depth of cooling, and encephalopathy severity. Main Outcomes and Measures The primary outcome was the occurrence of electrographic seizures during rewarming initiated at 72 or 120 hours compared with the preceding 12-hour epoch. Secondary outcomes included death or moderate or severe disability at age 18 to 22 months. The hypothesis was that seizures during rewarming were associated with higher odds of abnormal neurodevelopmental outcomes. Results A total of 120 newborns (70 male [58%]) were enrolled (66 in group A and 54 in group B). The mean (SD) gestational age was 39 (1) weeks. There was excellent interrater agreement (κ, 0.99) in detection of seizures. More infants had electrographic seizures during the rewarming epoch compared with the preceding epoch (group A, 27% vs 14%; P = .001; group B, 21% vs 10%; P = .03). Adjusted odd ratios (95% CIs) for seizure frequency during rewarming were 2.7 (1.0-7.5) for group A and 3.2 (0.9-11.6) for group B. The composite death or moderate to severe disability outcome at 2 years was significantly higher in infants with electrographic seizures during rewarming (relative risk [95% CI], 1.7 [1.25-2.37]) after adjusting for baseline clinical encephalopathy and seizures as well as center. Conclusions and Relevance Findings that higher odds of electrographic seizures during rewarming are associated with death or disability at 2 years highlight the necessity of electroencephalography monitoring during rewarming in infants at risk.

Risk of Intraoperative Hyperthermia and Outcomes in Adults Undergoing Cytoreductive Surgery (CRS) with Hyperthermic Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy (HIPEC). Ann Surg Oncol 2021; 29:2089-2099. [PMID: 34704181 DOI: 10.1245/s10434-021-10929-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/08/2021] [Accepted: 09/24/2021] [Indexed: 12/11/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) is commonly used to treat peritoneal surface malignancies. We aimed to identify risk factors of intraoperative patient hyperthermia and the postoperative outcome of adults undergoing HIPEC PATIENTS AND METHODS: A retrospective, IRB approved, single center cohort study was conducted. Adults treated with cytoreductive surgery and HIPEC between 2006 and 2021 were included. The primary outcome was bladder hyperthermia during perfusion, stratified by severity and duration. Secondary outcomes were postoperative complications and recurrence-free (RFS) and overall (OS) survival. Multivariable logistic regression models were fit to estimate the effects of important covariates. RESULTS Out of 214 patients, 114 had mild hyperthermia (≥ 38 °C) at any time, and in 73 of these it lasted for ≥ 30 min. Independent prognostic factors of mild hyperthermia ≥ 30 min were age (OR = 0.958, 95% CI 0.933-0.984), body mas index (BMI; OR = 0.959 95% CI 0.917-1.002), gender (OR = 0.199, 95% CI 0.092-0.431), and type of chemotherapy [cisplatin versus mitomycin (OR = 0.186, 95% CI 0.070-0.491; oxaliplatin versus mitomycin (OR = 0.430, 95% CI 0.163-1.139)]. Prognostic factors of moderate-to-severe hyperthermia (≥ 39 °C) at any time were perfusion duration (OR = 1.094, 95% CI 1.018-1.177) and blood transfusion (OR = 5.689, 95% CI 1.784-18.137). Intraoperative hyperthermia was not associated with increased postoperative complications but was associated with better RFS and OS. CONCLUSIONS Our study demonstrates age, gender, BMI, and chemotherapy type to be associated with hyperthermia ≥ 38 °C for ≥ 30 min, whereas longer perfusion time and blood transfusion were associated with hyperthermia ≥ 39 °C. Mild hyperthermia at the end of perfusion is associated with better RFS and OS.

Abstract
Temperature management is an essential element of cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB), as indicated in the Guide to Good Practice in Clinical Perfusion, 'The safe conduct of CPB requires the clinical perfusionist to measure and control. . . blood temperature. . . during the period of bypass'. To review current practice, we have conducted a research survey into the management of temperature on CPB. Surveys were distributed to each centre in Great Britain and the Republic of Ireland, investigating numerous temperature management practices, to elucidate current practice and assess if recent research into temperature management marry routine clinical practice. Our results demonstrate that nasopharyngeal temperature is the most common (52%) temperature site used across the many centres, which correlates with previous research as a routine site for cerebral temperature management. The arterial outlet of the oxygenator temperature was used in 33% of centres, however, all centres lacked the knowledge to maintain this temperature below 37°C. There was significant variation between all centres, especially regarding rewarming times (20-40 minutes), demonstrating a lack of uniformity among perfusion centres. Interestingly, most centres have been using the same protocol that has been in place over the previous 10 years.To conclude, the practice of temperature management is changing with the awareness of new research. Lower target temperatures are recommended for rewarming, ensuring a lower temperature gradient and a longer mean rewarming time.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVE Reduction of brain temperature remains the most common method of neuroprotection against ischemic injury employed during cardiac surgery. However, cooling delivered via the cardiopulmonary bypass circuit is brief and cooling the body core along with the brain has been associated with a variety of unwanted effects. This study investigated the feasibility and safety of a novel selective brain cooling approach to induce rapid, brain-targeted hypothermia independent of the cardiopulmonary bypass circuit. METHODS This first-in-human feasibility study enrolled five adults undergoing aortic valve replacement with cardiopulmonary bypass support. During surgery, the NeuroSave system circulated chilled saline within the pharynx and upper esophagus. Brain and body core temperature were continuously monitored. Adverse effects, cardiopulmonary function, and device function were noted. RESULTS Patient 1 received cooling fluid for an insignificant period, and Patients 2-5 successfully underwent the cooling procedure using the NeuroSave system for 56-89 minutes. Cooling fluid was 12°C for Patients 1-3, 6°C for Patient 4, and 2°C for Patient 5. There were no NeuroSave-related adverse events and no alterations in cardiopulmonary function during NeuroSave use. Brain temperature decreased by 3°C within 15 minutes and remained at least 3.5°C colder than the body core. During a brief episode of hypotension in one patient, the brain cooled an additional 4°C in 2 minutes, briefly reaching 27.4°C. CONCLUSION The NeuroSave system can induce rapid brain-targeted hypothermia and simultaneously maintain a favorable body-brain temperature gradient, even during hypotension. Further studies are required to evaluate the function of the system during longer periods of use.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Perioperative inadvertent hypothermia in elderly urology patients undergoing transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP) is a well-known serious complication, as it increases the risk of myocardial ischemia, blood loss, and surgical wound infection. We conducted this prospective randomized controlled trial to evaluate the combined effect of a forced-air warming system and electric blanket in elderly TURP patients. METHODS Between January 2015 and October 2017, we recruited 443 elderly male patients undergoing elective TURP with subarachnoid blockade (SAB). These were randomly divided into 3 groups: group E (intraoperative warming using electric blankets set to 38°C; n = 128); group F (intraoperative warming using a forced-air warmer set to 38°C; n = 155) and group FE (intraoperative warming using a forced-air warmer plus electric blankets, both set to 38°C; n = 160). The primary outcome was shivering and their grades. Hemodynamic changes, esophageal temperature, recovery time, incidences of adverse effects, and patient and surgeon satisfaction were also recorded. RESULTS Baseline characteristics showed no significant differences when compared across the 3 groups (P >.05). Compared with groups E and F, both HR and mean arterial pressure (MAP) in group FE were significantly decreased from T6 to T10 (P <.05). Compared with groups E and F, esophageal temperature in group FE increased significantly from T5 to T10 (P <.05). Compared with group E, esophageal temperature in group F was significantly increased from T5 to T10 (P <.05). Compared with groups F and FE, post-anesthesia care unit (PACU) recovery time was longer in group E, while compared with group F, PACU recovery time was shorter in group FE (P <.05). Compared to patients in groups E and F, those in group FE had a significantly lower incidence of arrhythmia and shivering (P <.05). The number of patients with shivering grades 0 to 3 was higher in group E than in other groups, while the number of patients with shivering grade 2 was significantly higher in group F than in group FE (P <.05). Patient and surgeon satisfaction scores were higher in group FE than in groups E and F (P <.05). CONCLUSIONS Use of a forced-air warming system combined with an electric blanket was an effective method with which to retain warmth among elderly TURP patients.

Abstract
For half a century, it has been known that some patients experience neurocognitive dysfunction after cardiac surgery; however, defining its incidence, course, and causes remains challenging and controversial. Various terms have been used to describe neurocognitive dysfunction at different times after cardiac surgery, ranging from "postoperative delirium" to "postoperative cognitive dysfunction or decline." Delirium is a clinical diagnosis included in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fifth Edition (DSM-5). Postoperative cognitive dysfunction is not included in the DSM-5 and has been heterogeneously defined, though a recent international nomenclature effort has proposed standardized definitions for it. Here, the authors discuss pathophysiologic mechanisms that may underlie these complications, review the literature on methods to prevent them, and discuss novel approaches to understand their etiology that may lead to novel treatment strategies. Future studies should measure both delirium and postoperative cognitive dysfunction to help clarify the relationship between these important postoperative complications.

Abstract
There is significant evidence that many older surgical patients experience at least a transient decrease in cognitive function. Although there is still equipoise regarding the degree, duration, and mechanism of cognitive dysfunction, there is a concurrent need to provide best-practice clinical evidence. The two major cognitive disorders seen after surgery are postoperative delirium and postoperative cognitive dysfunction. Delirium is a public health problem; millions of dollars are spent annually on delirium-related medical resource use and prolonged hospital stays. Postoperative cognitive dysfunction is a research construct that historically signifies decline in performance on a neuropsychiatric test or group of tests and begins days to weeks after surgery. This review focuses on the current state of information gathered by several interdisciplinary stakeholder groups. Although there is still a need for high-level evidence to guide clinical practice, there is an emerging literature that can guide practitioners.

Abstract
AIM To assess the efficacy of postoperative cytoprotection with cerebrolysin in cardiac surgeries without using cardiopulmonary bypass and to analyze the changes in the blood circulation in the postoperative period in groups with- and without cerebrolysin preconditioning. MATERIAL AND METHODS Thirty-eight patients, who underwent coronary and mammaro-coronary bypass grafting without using cardiopulmonary bypass, were included in the study. Fifteen patients received cerebrolysin before surgery. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION Cerebrolysin improved cognitive test scores. Positive changes on anxiety and depression scales were observed as well. In the group of patients treated with cerebrolysin, quantitative parameters of the cerebral blood flow were in stable condition, with a slight increase on the 10th day after surgery, which may indicate increasing stress resistance of cells of the central nervous system after appropriate pharmacological protection.

Abstract
Objective: In order to assess the current status of temperature management during cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) in China and, thereby, implement standardized management protocols, the authors carried out a national survey about institutions performing CPB. Method: The survey was carried out from September 2015 to February 2016 and was supported by the Chinese Society of ExtraCorporeal Circulation. A total of 114 institutions participated, accounting for 15.64% (114/729) of the total of germane Chinese institutions, whereby, 80.85% (38/47) of the institutions had an annual surgical volume of more than 1000 cases. Results: The most common sites of temperature measurement were nasopharyngeal (NP) (99.12%) and rectal (92.98%) while oxygenator blood temperature was less popular (28%). Rectal temperature as the core temperature was chosen by 78.95% of the institutions; 92.11% of the institutions chose nasopharyngeal temperature to represent the cerebral temperature. During deep hypothermia circulatory arrest (DHCA) when there was no cerebral perfusion, 18 to 22℃ was the most common indication of circulatory arrest. However, with cerebral perfusion, more than 40% of the institutions maintained a lowest temperature of 22 to 25℃ for adult and pediatric patients. A NP temperature of 36 to 37℃ was chosen by 70.18% of the institutions while 81.79% chose a rectal temperature of 35 to 36.5℃ as the indication to wean from CPB. The majority of the institutions chose a difference of 10℃ between the water tank and core temperatures as the temperature gradient during rewarming. Auxiliary heat preservation techniques and equipment were used in 91.23% of the institutions, whereas 35.58% of them would lower the indications to wean from CPB. Conclusions: This survey accurately reflects the current situation of temperature management during CPB in institutions with an annual surgical volume of >500 cases, but has, hereby, failed to properly represent the institutions with a lower annual surgical volume.

Abstract
Therapeutic hypothermia is recommended by international guidelines after cardio-circulatory arrest. However, the effects of different temperatures during the first 24 hours after deep hypothermic circulatory arrest (DHCA) for aortic arch surgery on survival and neurologic outcome are undefined. We hypothesize that temperature variation after aortic arch surgery is associated with survival and neurologic outcome. In the period 2010-2014, a total of 210 consecutive patients undergoing aortic arch surgery with DHCA were included. They were retrospectively divided into three groups by median nasopharyngeal temperature within 24 hours after rewarming: hypothermia (<36°C; n = 65), normothermia (36-37°C; n = 110), and hyperthermia (>37°C; n = 35). Multivariate stepwise logistic and linear regressions were performed to determine whether different temperature independently predicted 30-day mortality, stroke incidence, and neurologic outcome assessed by cerebral performance category (CPC) at hospital discharge. Compared with normothermia, hyperthermia was independently associated with a higher risk of 30-day mortality (28.6% vs. 10.9%; odds ratio [OR] 2.8; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.1-8.6; p = 0.005), stroke incidence (64.3% vs. 9.1%; OR 9.1; 95% CI, 2.7-23.0; p = 0.001), and poor neurologic outcome (CPC 3-5) (68.8% vs. 39.6%; OR 4.8; 95% CI, 1.4-8.7; p = 0.01). No significant differences were demonstrated between hypothermia and normothermia. Postoperative hypothermia is not associated with a better outcome after aortic arch surgery with DHCA. However, postoperative hyperthermia (>37°C) is associated with high stroke incidence, poor neurologic outcome, and increased 30-day mortality. Target temperature management in the first 24 hours after surgery should be evaluated in prospective randomized trials.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES In very low birthweight (VLBW) infants, hypothermia is associated with poor outcomes. The goal of this study is to assess the relationship between the rate of rewarming these babies and their outcomes. METHODS This is a retrospective cohort study of 98 inborn VLBW infants who were hypothermic (<36°C rectally) upon admission to the NICU. A logistic regression model was used to examine the relationship between the rates of rewarming and time to achieve euthermia and the following outcomes: death, intraventricular hemorrhage, severe intraventricular hemorrhage, bronchopulmonary dysplasia, necrotizing enterocolitis and retinopathy of prematurity. RESULTS Prolonged rewarming time was associate with increased odds of mortality (OR 1.273 95% CI 1.032-1.571). No associations between rewarming rates and any of the outcomes were seen. Once birthweight was included in a multiple logistic regression model, the association between mortality and rewarming time was no longer significant. Outcomes that were not associated with either rate or time of rewarming (even in a univariate model) were: bronchopulmonary dysplasia, intraventricular hemorrhage, severe intraventricular hemorrhage, necrotizing enterocolitis and retinopathy of prematurity. CONCLUSION In moderately hypothermic VLBW infants, after accounting for birthweight, no association between rewarming and outcome is seen.

Deep Hypothermic Cardiac Arrest Treated by Extracorporeal Life Support in a Porcine Model: Does the Rewarming Method Matter? Acad Emerg Med 2016; 23:665-73. [PMID: 26728797 DOI: 10.1111/acem.12893] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/29/2015] [Revised: 11/20/2015] [Accepted: 12/16/2015] [Indexed: 02/05/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES Extracorporeal life support (ECLS) is the reference rewarming technique of accidental deep hypothermic cardiac arrest (DHCA). This study was designed to examine the impact of different rewarming blood flow rates and temperature setting of ECLS on cardiopulmonary lesions after DHCA in a porcine model of accidental hypothermia. METHODS Twenty-four pigs were cannulated for ECLS, cooled until DHCA occurred, and subjected to 30 minutes of cardiac arrest. During the rewarming phase, we compared a low blood flow rate of 1.5 L/min versus a high flow rate of 3.0 L/min as well as two-temperature-setting rewarming strategies: a temperature during ECLS adjusted to 5°C above the central core temperature versus 38°C maintained throughout the rewarming phase. Cardiac output, hemodynamics and pulmonary function parameters were evaluated. Biologic markers of ischemia-reperfusion injuries were analyzed at baseline and at the end of the experiment. RESULTS DHCA occurred at 21.2 ± 2°C. There was a trend for better cardiac output in groups with high blood flow (p = 0.053), with no interaction between ECLS flow and temperature (p = 0.63), a trend toward lower pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR; p = 0.075) and a significant decrease in arterial PVR in groups with high blood flow (p = 0.013) with no interaction (p = 0.47 and p = 0.60 for PVR and arterial PVR, respectively). Serum interleukin-6, tumor necrosis factor-α, receptor for advanced glycation end products (RAGE), and neuron-specific enolase were significantly increased between baseline and endpoint. The increase in the serum RAGE concentration was higher in the 38°C rewarming temperature groups compared to 5°C above adjusted temperature. There were no other significant differences in biomarkers. CONCLUSIONS We developed a porcine model of DHCA treated by ECLS. Our data suggest that cardiac output tended to improve with a high-flow-rate rewarming strategy while a high-temperature delta between core temperature and ECLS increased the RAGE markers of lung injury.

SPRINGERPLUS 2016; 5:495.

Abstract
Background Cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) is often performed under hypothermic condition. The effects of hypothermia and re-warming on neutrophil activity are unclear. This study aimed to compare the effects of different hypothermia and re-warming regimens on neutrophil membrane bound elastase (MBE) activity and the release of pro-inflammatory factors from neutrophils. Methods Human neutrophils were exposed to different hypothermia and re-warming regimens. MBE activity and the release of interleukin (IL)-β1, IL-6, IL-8, and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α were measured. Results Neutrophil MBE activity was significantly reduced after 60-min moderate (28 °C) or deep (21 °C) hypothermic treatment. Compared with normothermic (37 °C) re-warming, aggressive re-warming (38.5°) for 120 min following deep hypothermia (21 °C) dramatically increased neutrophil MBE activity (P < 0.05). Co-incubation of neutrophils with platelet-rich plasma further increased MBE activity significantly under all the tested temperature regimens. IL-β1 release from neutrophils was significantly higher after deep hypothermia (21 °C) followed by normothermic (37 °C) re-warming than after moderate hypothermia (28 °C) followed by normothermic re-warming (P < 0.05). Aggressive re-warming (38.5°) following deep hypothermia significantly increased the release of IL-β1, IL-8, and TNF-α from neutrophil compared with moderate re-warming (37 °C) (all P < 0.05). Conclusion Aggressive re-warming following deep hypothermia may contribute to CPB-associated tissue injury by increasing neutrophil MBE activity and stimulating pro-inflammatory factor release, thus, should be avoided. The optimal hypothermic temperature of CPB should be determined based on patient clinical characteristics and surgery type.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to compare deep body temperature obtained using a novel noninvasive continuous zero-heat-flux temperature measurement system with core temperatures obtained using conventional methods. DESIGN A prospective, observational study. SETTING Operating room of a university hospital. PARTICIPANTS The study comprised 15 patients undergoing vascular surgery of the lower extremities and 15 patients undergoing cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass. INTERVENTIONS Zero-heat-flux thermometry on the forehead and standard core temperature measurements. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS Body temperature was measured using a new thermometry system (SpotOn; 3M, St. Paul, MN) on the forehead and with conventional methods in the esophagus during vascular surgery (n = 15), and in the nasopharynx and pulmonary artery during cardiac surgery (n = 15). The agreement between SpotOn and the conventional methods was assessed using the Bland-Altman random-effects approach for repeated measures. The mean difference between SpotOn and the esophageal temperature during vascular surgery was+0.08°C (95% limit of agreement -0.25 to+0.40°C). During cardiac surgery, during off CPB, the mean difference between SpotOn and the pulmonary arterial temperature was -0.05°C (95% limits of agreement -0.56 to+0.47°C). Throughout cardiac surgery (on and off CPB), the mean difference between SpotOn and the nasopharyngeal temperature was -0.12°C (95% limits of agreement -0.94 to+0.71°C). Poor agreement between the SpotOn and nasopharyngeal temperatures was detected in hypothermia below approximately 32°C. CONCLUSIONS According to this preliminary study, the deep body temperature measured using the zero-heat-flux system was in good agreement with standard core temperatures during lower extremity vascular and cardiac surgery. However, agreement was questionable during hypothermia below 32°C.

Abstract
While coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) has been playing a significant role in the revascularization for ischemic heart disease, neurological complications associated with CABG have been a primary concern. Stroke, although the incidence is low, is one of the most devastating complication of CABG. Many studies have identified the risk factors for stroke with CABG, such as prior stroke, carotid artery stenosis, aortic atherosclerosis, atrial fibrillation and cardiopulmonary bypass. Various rational approaches focusing on individual risk factor have been proposed for the stroke. Prophylactic carotid revascularization is an important strategy, and the diagnosis of carotid stenosis has to be established correctly. Prevention of emboli from aortic plaque is also an essential issue. Intraoperative monitoring with transesophageal or epiaortic ultrasound is useful to identify mobile atheromatous plaques and to select appropriate aortic manipulations. Maintenance of cerebral blood flow and blood pressure during cardiopulmonary bypass might be critical issues. Besides, there are conflicting two opinions regarding off-pump CABG; one supports an efficiency for the prevention of stroke while the other advocates no effect. This discrepancy might be explained by the difference of the risk of stroke in the population of the individual study and by the variation of the percentage of aortic clamping or aortic anastomosis in each study. Pharmaceutical therapies such as statin, preventive medication for atrial fibrillation, or antiplatelet are promising methods. Although it is hard to decrease the incidence of the stroke with any single countermeasure, sustained effort should be continued to overcome the stroke associated with CABG.

Abstract
The techniques and equipment of cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) have evolved over the past 60 years, and numerous numbers of cardiac surgical procedures are conducted around the world using CPB. Despite more widespread applications of percutaneous coronary and valvular interventions, the need for cardiac surgery using CPB remains the standard approach for certain cardiac pathologies because some patients are ineligible for percutaneous procedures, or such procedures are unsuccessful in some. The ageing patient population for cardiac surgery poses a number of clinical challenges, including anemia, decreased cardiopulmonary reserve, chronic antithrombotic therapy, neurocognitive dysfunction, and renal insufficiency. The use of CPB is associated with inductions of systemic inflammatory responses involving both cellular and humoral interactions. Inflammatory pathways are complex and redundant, and thus, the reactions can be profoundly amplified to produce a multiorgan dysfunction that can manifest as capillary leak syndrome, coagulopathy, respiratory failure, myocardial dysfunction, renal insufficiency, and neurocognitive decline. In this review, pathophysiological aspects of CPB are considered from a practical point of view, and preventive strategies for hemodilutional anemia, coagulopathy, inflammation, metabolic derangement, and neurocognitive and renal dysfunction are discussed.

Abstract
As increasing numbers of elderly people undergo cardiac surgery, neurologists are frequently called upon to assess patients with neurological complications from the procedure. Some complications mandate acute intervention, whereas others need longer term observation and management. A large amount of published literature exists about these complications and guidance on best practice is constantly changing. Similarly, despite technological advances in surgical intervention and modifications in surgical technique to make cardiac procedures safer, these advances often create new avenues for neurological injury. Accordingly, rapid and precise neurological assessment and therapeutic intervention rests on a solid understanding of the evidence base and procedural variables.

Abstract
Context Stress response induced by surgery is proposed to play an important role in the pathogenesis of postoperative cognitive dysfunction. Objective To investigate the association between postoperative serum cortisol level and occurrence of cognitive dysfunction early after coronary artery bypass graft surgery. Design Prospective cohort study. Setting Two teaching hospitals. Patients One hundred and sixth-six adult patients who were referred to elective coronary artery bypass graft surgery from March 2008 to December 2009. Intervention None. Main Outcome Measures Neuropsychological tests were completed one day before and seven days after surgery. Cognitive dysfunction was defined using the same definition as used in the ISPOCD1-study. Blood samples were obtained in the first postoperative morning for measurement of serum cortisol concentration. Multivariate Logistic regression analyses were performed to assess the relationship between serum cortisol level and occurrence of postoperative cognitive dysfunction. Results Cognitive dysfunction occurred in 39.8% (66 of 166) of patients seven days after surgery. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that high serum cortisol level was significantly associated with the occurrence of postoperative cognitive dysfunction (odds ratio [OR] 2.603, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.371-4.944, P = 0.003). Other independent predictors of early postoperative cognitive dysfunction included high preoperative New York Heart Association functional class (OR 0.402, 95% CI 0.207-0.782, P = 0.007), poor preoperative Grooved Pegboard test score of nondominant hand (OR 1.022, 95% CI 1.003-1.040, P = 0.020), use of penehyclidine as premedication (OR 2.565, 95% CI 1.109-5.933, P = 0.028), and occurrence of complications within seven days after surgery (OR 2.677, 95% CI 1.201-5.963, P = 0.016). Conclusions High serum cortisol level in the first postoperative morning was associated with increased risk of cognitive dysfunction seven days after coronary artery bypass graft surgery.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Mild hypothermia is neuroprotective after cerebral ischemia but surgery involving profound hypothermia (PH, temperature less than 18°C) is associated with neurologic complications. Rewarming (RW) from PH injures hippocampal neurons by glutamate excitotoxicity, N-methyl-D-aspartate receptors, and intracellular calcium. Because neurons are protected from hypoxia-ischemia by anesthetic agents that inhibit N-methyl-D-aspartic acid receptors, we tested whether anesthetics protect neurons from damage caused by PH/RW. METHODS Organotypic cultures of rat hippocampus were used to model PH/RW injury, with hypothermia at 4°C followed by RW to 37°C and assessment of cell death 1 or 24 h later. Cell death and intracellular Ca were assessed with fluorescent dye imaging and histology. Anesthetic agents were present in the culture media during PH and RW or only RW. RESULTS Injury to hippocampal CA1, CA3, and dentate neurons after PH and RW involved cell swelling, cell rupture, and adenosine triphosphate (ATP) loss; this injury was similar for 4 through 10 h of PH. Isoflurane (1% and 2%), sevoflurane (3%) and xenon (60%) reduced cell loss but propofol (3 μM) and pentobarbital (100 μM) did not. Isoflurane protection involved reduction in N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor-mediated Ca influx during RW but did not involve γ-amino butyric acid receptors or KATP channels. However, cell death increased over the next day. CONCLUSION Anesthetic protection of neurons rewarmed from 4°C involves suppression of N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor-mediated Ca overload in neurons undergoing ATP loss and excitotoxicity. Unlike during hypoxia/ischemia, anesthetic agents acting predominantly on γ-aminobutyric acid receptors do not protect against PH/RW. The durability of anesthetic protection against cold injury may be limited.

Abstract
Deep hypothermic circulatory arrest is an essential tool in the surgeon’s armamentarium. There are essentially three strategies to address cerebral ischemia during arrest periods. Early surgical case series pioneered the option of complete anoxia with deep hypothermia. Subsequent innovators introduced the concept of retrograde perfusion of the cerebral vessels through the venous system, and others have advocated the use of selective and non-selective antegrade perfusion of the cerebral arteries. Clinical studies assessing outcomes of the three approaches are compromised by small patient numbers, retrospective design and surgeon bias. In this review, the authors will briefly discuss the conceptual basis of these strategies and the literature comparing these approaches in terms of key neurologic outcomes. The importance of this topic will emphasize the key role the perfusion community plays in establishing guidelines for best practice in circulatory arrest to go forward with education and research in this area.

Abstract
Background: Mild to moderate systemic hypothermia is commonly used as a cerebral protective strategy during adult cardiac surgery. The benefits of this strategy for routine cardiac surgery have been questioned and the adverse effects of hyperthermia demonstrated. The purpose of the present study was to examine current temperature management and monitoring practices during adult cardiac surgery using CPB in Canada. Methods: Web-based survey referring to adult cases undergoing cardiac surgery using CPB without the use of deep hypothermic circulatory arrest. Thirty-two questionnaires were completed, representing a 100% response rate. Results: The usual management is to cool patients during CPB at 30 (94%) centers for low-risk (isolated primary CABG) cases and at 31 (97%) centers for high-risk (all other) cases. The average nadir temperature at the target site achieved on CPB is 34°C (range 28°C - 36°C). At 26 (81%) centers, patients are typically rewarmed to a target temperature between 36°C and 37°C before separation from CPB. Only 6 (19%) centers reported that thermistors and coupled devices used to monitor blood temperature are checked for accuracy or calibrated according to the product operating directive’s schedule or more often. Conclusions: Contemporary management of adult cardiac surgery under CPB still involves induction of mild to moderate systemic hypothermia. Significant practice variation exists across the country with respect to target temperatures for cooling and rewarming, as well as the site for temperature monitoring. This probably reflects the lack of definitive evidence. There is a need for well-conducted clinical trials to provide more robust evidence regarding temperature management.

Abstract
Postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) is reported to occur frequently after all types especially cardiac surgery in elderly patients. It can be short-term or long-term and some cases even develop into Alzheimer's disease (AD). Although multi-risk factors associated with POCD have been identified, the etiology and pathophysiological mechanisms of this surgical complication remain elusive. Therefore, developing strategies for preventing or treating POCD is still challenging. However, increasing evidence suggests that central and systemic inflammation triggered by surgery likely plays a fundamental role in POCD developing and progression. Minocycline, a tetracycline derivative with anti-inflammatory properties, has been shown to be effective in treating neuroinflammatory related conditions or neurodegenerative diseases such as AD, Parkinson's disease, Huntington's disease. Considering that inflammation may be a potential factor of POCD and minocycline is effective in improving cognitive dysfunction induced by inflammation, we hypothesize that minocycline may be useful to treat/prevent the POCD development after surgery in elderly patients.

Administration of hydrogen sulfide via extracorporeal membrane lung ventilation in sheep with partial cardiopulmonary bypass perfusion: a proof of concept study on metabolic and vasomotor effects. Crit Care 2011; 15:R51. [PMID: 21299857 PMCID: PMC3221981 DOI: 10.1186/cc10016] [Citation(s) in RCA: 41] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/22/2010] [Revised: 12/15/2010] [Accepted: 02/07/2011] [Indexed: 11/28/2022] Open
Abstract
Introduction Although inhalation of 80 parts per million (ppm) of hydrogen sulfide (H2S) reduces metabolism in mice, doses higher than 200 ppm of H2S were required to depress metabolism in rats. We therefore hypothesized that higher concentrations of H2S are required to reduce metabolism in larger mammals and humans. To avoid the potential pulmonary toxicity of H2S inhalation at high concentrations, we investigated whether administering H2S via ventilation of an extracorporeal membrane lung (ECML) would provide means to manipulate the metabolic rate in sheep. Methods A partial venoarterial cardiopulmonary bypass was established in anesthetized, ventilated (fraction of inspired oxygen = 0.5) sheep. The ECML was alternately ventilated with air or air containing 100, 200, or 300 ppm H2S for intervals of 1 hour. Metabolic rate was estimated on the basis of total CO2 production (V˙CO2) and O2 consumption (V˙O2). Continuous hemodynamic monitoring was performed via indwelling femoral and pulmonary artery catheters. Results V˙CO2, V˙O2, and cardiac output ranged within normal physiological limits when the ECML was ventilated with air and did not change after administration of up to 300 ppm H2S. Administration of 100, 200 and 300 ppm H2S increased pulmonary vascular resistance by 46, 52 and 141 dyn·s/cm5, respectively (all P ≤ 0.05 for air vs. 100, 200 and 300 ppm H2S, respectively), and mean pulmonary artery pressure by 4 mmHg (P ≤ 0.05), 3 mmHg (n.s.) and 11 mmHg (P ≤ 0.05), respectively, without changing pulmonary capillary wedge pressure or cardiac output. Exposure to 300 ppm H2S decreased systemic vascular resistance from 1,561 ± 553 to 870 ± 138 dyn·s/cm5 (P ≤ 0.05) and mean arterial pressure from 121 ± 15 mmHg to 66 ± 11 mmHg (P ≤ 0.05). In addition, exposure to 300 ppm H2S impaired arterial oxygenation (PaO2 114 ± 36 mmHg with air vs. 83 ± 23 mmHg with H2S; P ≤ 0.05). Conclusions Administration of up to 300 ppm H2S via ventilation of an extracorporeal membrane lung does not reduce V˙CO2 and V˙O2, but causes dose-dependent pulmonary vasoconstriction and systemic vasodilation. These results suggest that administration of high concentrations of H2S in venoarterial cardiopulmonary bypass circulation does not reduce metabolism in anesthetized sheep but confers systemic and pulmonary vasomotor effects.
