Hemolysis during open heart surgery in patients with hereditary spherocytosis - systematic review of the literature and case study. Perioper Med (Lond) 2024; 13:54. [PMID: 38858770 PMCID: PMC11163860 DOI: 10.1186/s13741-024-00411-w] [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: 09/02/2023] [Accepted: 05/27/2024] [Indexed: 06/12/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Due to the distinctive nature of cardiac surgery, patients suffering from hereditary spherocytosis (HS) are potentially at a high risk of perioperative complications resulting from hemolysis. Despite being the most prevalent cause of hereditary chronic hemolysis, the standards of surgical management are based solely on expert opinion. OBJECTIVE We analyze the risk of hemolysis in HS patients after cardiac surgery based on a systematic review of the literature. We also describe a case of a patient with hereditary spherocytosis who underwent aortic valve repair. METHODS This systematic review was registered in the PROSPERO international prospective register of systematic reviews (CRD42023417666) and included records from Embase, MEDLINE, Web of Science, and Google Scholar databases. The case study investigates a 38-year-old patient who underwent surgery for an aortic valve defect in mid-2022. RESULTS Of the 787 search results, 21 studies describing 23 cases of HS undergoing cardiac surgery were included in the final analysis. Hemolysis was diagnosed in five patients (one coronary artery bypass graft surgery, two aortic valve bioprosthesis, one ventricular septal defect closure, and one mitral valve plasty). None of the patients died in the perioperative period. Also, no significant clinical hemolysis was observed in our patient during the perioperative period. CONCLUSIONS The literature data show that hemolysis is not common in patients with HS undergoing various cardiac surgery techniques. The typical management of a patient with mild/moderate HS does not appear to increase the risk of significant clinical hemolysis. Commonly accepted beliefs about factors inducing hemolysis during cardiac surgery may not be fully justified and require further investigation.

Hemolysis and cardiopulmonary bypass: meta-analysis and systematic review of contributing factors. J Cardiothorac Surg 2023; 18:291. [PMID: 37833747 PMCID: PMC10571250 DOI: 10.1186/s13019-023-02406-y] [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: 02/18/2023] [Accepted: 09/30/2023] [Indexed: 10/15/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The use of cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) is almost inevitable in cardiac surgery. However, it can cause complications, including hemolysis. Until now, there have not been any standards for reducing hemolysis from CPB. Therefore, this systematic review was conducted to determine the factors that increase or reduce hemolysis in the use of CPB. METHODS Keywords Earches (cardiac surgery AND cardiopulmonary bypass AND hemolysis) were done on PubMed databases and Cochrane CENTRAL from 1990-2021 for published randomized controlled trials (RCTs) that studied interventions on CPB, in cardiac surgery patients, and measured hemolysis as one of the outcomes. Studies involving patients with preoperative hematological disorders, prosthetic valves, preoperative use of intra-aortic balloon pumps and extracorporeal circulation, emergency and minimally invasive surgery are excluded RESULTS: The search yielded 64 studies that met the inclusion criteria, which involved a total of 3,434 patients. The most common surgery was coronary revascularization (75%). Out of 64 studies, 33 divided into 7 analyses. Remaining 31 studies were synthesized qualitatively. Significant decreases were found in centrifugal vs roller pumps for PFHb (p = 0.0006) and Hp (p < 0.0001) outcomes, separated vs combined suctioned blood (p = 0.003), CPB alternatives vs conventional CPB (p < 0.0001), and mini extracorporeal circulation (MiniECC) vs conventional CPB for LDH (p = 0.0008). Significant increases were found in pulsatility (p = 0.03) and vacuum-assisted venous drainage (VAVD) vs gravity-assisted venous drainage (GAVD) (p = 0.002). CONCLUSION The review shows that hemolysis could be caused by several factors and efforts have been made to reduce it, combining significant efforts could be beneficial. However, this review has limitations, such as heterogeneity due to no standards available for conducting CPB. Therefore, further research with standardized guidelines for CPB is needed to yield more comparable studies. Meta-analyses with more specific parameters should be done to minimize heterogeneity.

Abstract
Extracorporeal circulation (ECC) systems, including cardiopulmonary bypass, and extracorporeal membrane oxygenation have been an irreplaceable part of the cardiothoracic surgeries, and treatment of critically ill patients with respiratory and/or cardiac failure for more than half a century. During the recent decades, the concept of extracorporeal circulation has been extended to isolated machine perfusion of the donor organ including thoracic organs (ex-situ organ perfusion, ESOP) as a method for dynamic, semi-physiologic preservation, and potential improvement of the donor organs. The extracorporeal life support systems (ECLS) have been lifesaving and facilitating complex cardiothoracic surgeries, and the ESOP technology has the potential to increase the number of the transplantable donor organs, and to improve the outcomes of transplantation. However, these artificial circulation systems in general have been associated with activation of the inflammatory and oxidative stress responses in patients and/or in the exposed tissues and organs. The activation of these responses can negatively affect patient outcomes in ECLS, and may as well jeopardize the reliability of the organ viability assessment, and the outcomes of thoracic organ preservation and transplantation in ESOP. Both ECLS and ESOP consist of artificial circuit materials and components, which play a key role in the induction of these responses. However, while ECLS can lead to systemic inflammatory and oxidative stress responses negatively affecting various organs/systems of the body, in ESOP, the absence of the organs that play an important role in oxidant scavenging/antioxidative replenishment of the body, such as liver, may make the perfused organ more susceptible to inflammation and oxidative stress during extracorporeal circulation. In the present manuscript, we will review the activation of the inflammatory and oxidative stress responses during ECLP and ESOP, mechanisms involved, clinical implications, and the interventions for attenuating these responses in ECC.

Abstract
A 66-year-old Caucasian male with a history of chronic myelomonocytic leukemia (CMML) developed fluid-unresponsive hypotension requiring initiation of four different maximum dosed vasopressors, steroids, and broad-spectrum antibiotics 4 hours following four-vessel coronary artery bypass grafting involving a 150-minute cardiac bypass. Placement of a Swanz-Ganz catheter showed a cardiac output of 7 L/minute with systemic vascular resistance of 571 dynes/sec/cm−5. Over 24 hours, three doses of tocilizumab (interleukin-6 inhibitor) every 8 hours were initiated, plus 250 mg methylprednisolone per 6 hours increment, and then daily thereafter. After the initial dose of tocilizumab, it was possible to wean vasoconstrictors. We have shown for the first time that therapy with tocilizumab is effective in reversing the hemodynamic instability associated with the significant systemic inflammatory response from the “double hit” of CMML and coronary artery bypass grafting with cardiopulmonary bypass as has previously been shown in cytokine release syndrome.

Abstract
Successes of extracorporeal life support increased the use of centrifugal pumps.
However, reports of hemolysis call for caution in using these pumps, especially
in neonatology and in pediatric intensive care. Cavitation can be a cause of
blood damage. The aim of our study was to obtain information about the
cavitation conditions and to provide the safest operating range of centrifugal
pumps. A series of tests were undertaken to determine the points at which pump
performance decreases 3% and gas bubbles start to appear downstream of the pump.
Two pumps were tested; pump R with a closed impeller and pump S with a semiopen
impeller. The performance tests demonstrated that pump S has an optimal region
narrower than pump R and it is shifted to the higher flows. When the pump
performance started to decrease, the inlet pressure varies but close to
−150 mmHg in the test with low gas content and higher than −100 mmHg in the
tests with increased gas content. The same trend was observed at the points of
development of massive gas emboli. Importantly, small packages of bubbles
downstream of the pump were registered at relatively high inlet pressures. The
gaseous cavitation in centrifugal pumps is a phenomenon that appears with
decreasing inlet pump pressures. There are a few ways to increase inlet pump
pressures: (1) positioning the pump as low as possible in relation to the
patient; (2) selecting appropriate sized venous cannulas and their careful
positioning; and (3) controlling patient’s volume status.

Abstract
Roller pumping results in hemolysis and adverse effects on coagulation, but there are few reports on the influence of roller heads on platelets. Here, we evaluate the interaction between roller pumping and platelet function using a simulated extracorporeal circuit incorporating a vinyl chloride tube and roller head pump with 30 min recirculation. Platelet aggregation, platelet count, microparticle, P-selectin, Phosphatidylserine (PS) exposure and Ricinus Communis Agglutinin 1 (RCA-1) were measured before, 5, 10, 20, and 30 min after the recirculation using 100 ml of fresh human blood that had obtained from healthy volunteers (n = 9). Platelet aggregation and platelet count gradually decreased but microparticles significantly increased after the recirculation (P < 0.05). P-selectin, PS exposure and RCA-1 were measured using flow cytometry. There were no significant differences in the P-selectin and PS exposure expression during recirculation. RCA-1, a platelet apoptosis markers, significantly increased 30 min after recirculation (P < 0.05). We thus conclude that roller pumping induced platelet apoptosis and caused decreases in platelet count and aggregation after the recirculation.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aims to compare the early and medium outcomes of on-pump beating-heart (OPBH) coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) and off-pump CABG (OPCABG) in patients with left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) between 30% and 40%. METHODS This is a retrospective study of ischemic heart disease patients with LVEF between 30% and 40% who underwent surgical revascularization from January 2013 to December 2017. Patients were divided into OPBH group (n=44) and OPCABG group (n=68), according to the surgical method. Clinical material with early and medium outcomes were investigated and compared between these groups. RESULTS The two groups had similar baseline. Two OPBH patients and 3 OPCABG patients died in the hospital, which had no statistical significance (P>0.05). OPBH patients received a greater number of grafts (3.74±0.84) and presented more improved LVEF (45.92±7.11%) than OPCABG patients (3.36±0.80) and (42.81±9.29%), respectively, which had statistical significance (P<0.05). An increased amount of drainage during the first 12 hours was found in the OPBH group (P<0.05). Reoperation for bleeding, duration of mechanic ventilation, and other early outcomes had no statistical significance between the two groups. During the medium-time follow-up, OPBH patients showed significantly lower major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE)-free survival time (P=0.049) than OPCABG patients. CONCLUSION The OPBH technique was a safe and an acceptable alternative for surgical revascularization in patients with moderate left ventricular dysfunction which provided better mid-term MACE-free survival compared with OPCABG.
