目的观察单次亚麻醉剂量氯胺酮对结直肠肿瘤患者术后焦虑、抑郁等情绪反应的影响。方法选择42例择期全麻下行结直肠肿瘤切除患者,年龄18~65岁,随机分为氯胺酮组(K组)和对照组(C组)。全麻诱导后K组于手术开始前5min单次静注氯胺酮0.3mg/kg,C组给予等量生理盐水,术后两组患者静脉镇痛方案相同。手术前1d及术后48h内使用医院焦虑抑郁量表(HAD)评估患者情绪反应(焦虑、抑郁状态),使用QoR-40调查问卷评估术后恢复情况,拔管后30min测定VAS疼痛评分和Ramsay镇静评分,并记录麻醉结束至拔管的时间、拔管时呛咳、苏醒期躁动及谵妄、拔管后30min内不良反应发生情况。结果术后48hK组患者焦虑评分(HAD-A)、抑郁评分(HAD-D)均明显低于C组(P0.05)。术后48h两组患者QoR-40评分差异无统计学意义。术后48hK组患者QoR-40评分明显高于C组(P0.05)。拔管后30min K组患者VAS疼痛评分明显低于C组(P0.05),两组Ramsay镇静评分差异无统计学意义。两组患者拔管时间、拔管后呛咳、苏醒期躁动及谵妄发生率差异均无统计学意义。拔管后30min未见头晕、恶心、呕吐、复视等不良反应。结论单次亚麻醉剂量氯胺酮可降低结直肠肿瘤患者术后焦虑、抑郁评分并改善术后苏醒质量,未增加不良反应。     

高龄患者体外与非体外循环冠状动脉旁路移植术后早期呼吸功能的比较

目的探讨体外循环冠状动脉旁路移植术(on-pump coronary artery bypass grafting,on-pump CABG)与非体外循环冠状动脉旁路移植术(off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting,off-pump CABG)对高龄(≥70岁)患者术后早期呼吸功能的影响。方法将2000年12月至2006年2月在我科接受on-pump CABG和off-pump CABG的高龄冠心病患者分为两组(on-pump组和off-pump组),每组30例,分别进行围术期动脉血气分析和肺功能的测量。结果两组患者术前肺功能和动脉血气指标差异无统计学意义;术后第1d和第3d红细胞压积(Hematocrit,Hct)值、术后1~3d动脉血氧分压值、术后第4~6d的用力肺活量(forced vital capacity,FVC)、第1秒用力呼气量(first second forced expiratory volume,FEV1.0)、一秒率(FEV1.0/FVC%)等on-pump组均低于off-pump组(P<0.05),术后平均带气管内插管时间和住院时间on-pump组长于off-pump组(P<0.05)。结论高龄冠心病患者施行off-pump CABG较on-pump CABG术后早期呼吸功能恢复良好。     

Renal dose dopamine in open heart surgery. Does it protect renal tubular function?

BACKGROUND: This prospective, randomized study assessed the effect of dopamine on renal tubular function in patients who had coronary artery bypass grafting. METHODS: Two groups of patients with normal preoperative renal function were randomly divided into a dopamine group (n=11), who received dopamine in a dose of 2 mg/kg x min, and a control group (n=11), who received no treatment. Dopamine infusion was initiated 24 hours before the operation and was continued for 48 hours postoperatively. Measurements of renal function obtained 2 days before the operation were considered preoperative and were repeated on the 1st, 3rd, and 7th postoperative days. Urinary excretion of b2-Microglobulin (b2-M), considered a sensitive means for diagnosing proximal tubular damage, was measured during the early (day 3) and late (day 7) postoperative period. RESULTS: There were no significant differences respect to the clearances of creatinine, osmotic, and free-water in the dopamine group compared with the control group (p>0.05). Urine microalbumin levels significantly increased on postoperative day 3 in both groups. During the early postoperative period, excretion of urine b2-M was significantly greater in the dopamine group than in the control group (p<0.05). CONCLUSIONS: Consequently, in patients with normal preoperative renal and cardiac function scheduled for elective coronary artery bypass grafting, renal dose dopamine infusion alone may not provide sufficient protection on tubular function and increases renal tubular injury during the early postoperative period.     

Patient-controlled versus nurse-controlled pain treatment after coronary artery bypass surgery

BACKGROUND: Pain after coronary artery bypass surgery persists for several days. A continuous intravenous infusion of an opioid adequately accomplishes good pain control in the intensive care unit, but it is often not suitable on the ordinary ward. Patient-controlled analgesia (PCA) with intermittent injections delivered by one of the new devices now available could be an alternative to conventional nurse-controlled analgesia (NCA) based on intermittent injections. The aim was to compare these two techniques with respect to efficacy and the amount of opioid used. METHODS: Forty-eight patients randomly received PCA or NCA with ketobemidone following extubation after coronary artery bypass grafting. Drug consumption, pain assessment with the visual analogue score (VAS) and possible side effects were evaluated from extubation to the end of the second postoperative day. RESULTS: On the day of surgery the VAS scores did not differ between the groups. From the afternoon of the first postoperative day the VAS scores were higher in the NCA group with mean values at 3-4 out of 10 as compared with mean values around 2 in the PCA group (P<0.01). During the study period the patients in the PCA group received more ketobemidone as compared with the NCA group, 61.9+/-24.0 mg and 36.3+/-20.2 mg, respectively (P<0.01). Additional oral analgesics were used in 12 of the patients in the NCA group compared with none in the PCA group. The few side effects reported were equally distributed between the two groups. CONCLUSION: PCA treatment after coronary artery bypass surgery resulted in better pain treatment and the use of more opioid without an increase in side effects compared with traditional NCA treatment.     

The use of pre-operative intrathecal morphine for analgesia following coronary artery bypass surgery

With the emergence of rapid extubation protocols following cardiac surgery, providing adequate analgesia in the early postoperative period is important. This prospective randomised double-blind study investigated the benefits of pre-operative intrathecal administration of low dose morphine in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass graft surgery. Postoperative analgesia, pulmonary function, stress response and postoperative recovery profile were assessed. Thirty patients were allocated into two groups, receiving either 500 mug of morphine intrathecally prior to anaesthesia and intravenous patient-controlled analgesia with morphine postoperatively following tracheal extubation, or only postoperative intravenous patient-controlled analgesia. In the intrathecal group, the total consumption of intravenous morphine following surgery was significantly reduced by 40% and patients reported lower pain scores at rest, during the first 24 h following extubation. Peak expiratory flow rate was greater and postoperative catecholamine release was significantly lower. Patients in the control group had a higher incidence of reduced respiratory rate following extubation.     

To ventilate or not after minimally invasive direct coronary artery bypass surgery: the role of epidural anesthesia

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the effect of immediate postoperative extubation and postoperative ventilation after minimally invasive direct coronary artery bypass (MIDCAB) surgery and to assess the role of epidural anesthesia. DESIGN: Randomized prospective study. SETTING: University hospital, single institution. PARTICIPANTS: Patients (n = 90) scheduled for elective MIDCAB surgery. INTERVENTIONS: Patients were divided into 3 groups: 30 patients had general anesthesia and were extubated immediately after surgery (extubated group), 30 patients had a thoracic epidural and general anesthesia and were extubated immediately after surgery (epidural group), and 30 patients had general anesthesia and were ventilated after surgery (intubated group). MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS: With a similar cardiac index and less vasoactive medication, mean arterial blood pressure (77 plus minus 8 mmHg [mean plus minus SD]) and heart rate (76 plus minus 10 beats/min) in the epidural group were lower on the first postoperative day than in the intubated group (83 plus minus 10 mmHg and 81 plus minus 13 beats/min) and the extubated group (86 plus minus 10 mmHg and 83 plus minus 13) (p = 0.01 and p = 0.09). Oxygenation on the first postoperative day was better in the epidural group than in the intubated group (14.8 plus minus 3.8 kPa v 12.6 plus minus 3.2 kPa; p = 0.05). The epidural group and the extubated group had a transient respiratory acidosis postoperatively. Pain score in the epidural group was lower on the first postoperative day than in the extubated group with general anesthesia (3.0 plus minus 1.6 visual analog scale v 4.6 plus minus 1.8 visual analog scale; p = 0.01). Hospital stay was shorter in the epidural group than in the ventilated group (5.9 plus minus 2.4 days v 8.1 plus minus 5.3 days; p = 0.05) CONCLUSION: Immediate postoperative extubation in patients with thoracic epidural anesthesia and supplemental general anesthesia provides the most favorable clinical circumstances after MIDCAB surgery.     

Intrathecal morphine for coronary artery bypass graft procedure and early extubation revisited.

OBJECTIVE: To determine the dose of intrathecal (IT) morphine (along with the intraoperative baseline anesthetic) that provides significant analgesia yet does not delay extubation in the immediate postoperative period in patients undergoing cardiac surgery and early extubation. DESIGN: Prospective, randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled clinical study. SETTING: Single university hospital. PARTICIPANTS: Forty patients undergoing elective coronary artery bypass graft procedure and early extubation. INTERVENTIONS: Twenty patients received 10 microg/kg of IT morphine, and 20 patients received IT placebo. Perioperative anesthetic management was standardized and included postoperative patient-controlled morphine analgesia. MAIN RESULTS: Of the patients tracheally extubated during the immediate postoperative period, mean time to extubation was similar in patients who received IT morphine (6.8+/-2.8 h) or IT placebo (6.5+/-3.2 h). Four patients who received IT morphine had extubation substantially delayed because of prolonged ventilatory depression. There was no difference between groups in postoperative patient-controlled morphine analgesia use. CONCLUSION: Even when used in conjunction with an intraoperative baseline anesthetic that allows early extubation, IT morphine (10 microg/kg) was unable to provide substantial postoperative analgesia. The risks of using IT morphine in patients undergoing cardiac surgery and early extubation may outweigh the potential benefits.     

Sevoflurane metabolite production in a small cohort of coronary artery bypass graft surgery patients

OBJECTIVE: To determine hepatic and renal effects of hexafluoroisopropanol in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass graft surgery under sevoflurane anesthesia. DESIGN: Prospective, clinical comparison. SETTING: University hospital. PARTICIPANTS: Adult patients scheduled for coronary artery bypass graft surgery (n = 56) were divided into 3 groups according to renal function: group 1, patients with normal renal function (plasma creatinine <1.7 mg/dL), subdivided into 2 groups (group 1a and group 1b), and group 2, patients with impaired renal function (plasma creatinine > or = 1.7 mg/dL). INTERVENTIONS: Anesthesia was maintained with fentanyl, 20 microg/kg, and sevoflurane. In group 1a and group 2, sevoflurane dosage was 0.5 minimum alveolar concentration (MAC). In group 1b, it was 1.0 MAC of sevoflurane. During cardiopulmonary bypass, the same concentration of sevoflurane was given through a membrane oxygenator. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS: Serum hexafluoroisopropanol concentration was measured before induction of anesthesia, at the initiation of cardiopulmonary bypass, at the release of the aortic cross-clamp, at the end of cardiopulmonary bypass, at the end of surgery, and on the 1st postoperative day. Blood urea nitrogen, creatinine, 24-hour urinary output, aspartate aminotransferase, alanine aminotransferase, and total bilirubin were measured at preoperative evaluation, at the end of surgery, and on the 1st and 3rd postoperative days. The levels of hexafluoroisopropanol increased and peaked on the 1st postoperative day. Laboratory values showed no significant differences among all groups. CONCLUSION: The serum level of hexafluoroisopropanol after 0.5 MAC of sevoflurane anesthesia does not aggravate hepatic and renal functions.

Port-access minimally invasive cardiac surgery increases surgical complexity, increases operating room time, and facilitates early postoperative hospital discharge

BACKGROUND: Proposed advantages of port-access cardiac surgery have yet to be substantiated. The authors retrospectively compared patients undergoing port-access cardiac surgery with a matched group undergoing conventional cardiac surgery. METHODS: Forty-six patients who underwent port-access cardiac surgery were matched with 46 who underwent conventional cardiac surgery. Absolute criteria for matching included morning-of-surgery admission, procedure undergone, and care being delivered by one of two surgeons. If possible, matching included care delivered by one of two anesthesiologists. Patients were matched as closely as possible for preoperative demographic and clinical characteristics. RESULTS: All 46 pairs of patients were matched for procedure and admitted the morning of surgery. All 92 operations were performed by one of two surgeons, and 89% were performed by one of two anesthesiologists. Preoperative demographic and clinical characteristics were equivalent between groups. Compared with conventional cardiac surgery, port-access cardiac surgery increased surgical complexity (it almost tripled cardiopulmonary bypass time during coronary artery bypass grafting and increased it almost 40% during mitral valve procedures) and increased total operating room time (P < 0.0001). Port-access cardiac surgery had no beneficial effect on earlier postoperative extubation, decreased incidence of atrial fibrillation, or intensive care unit time, yet it decreased postoperative duration of stay (P = 0.029, all patients), a benefit observed primarily in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting (P = 0.002). CONCLUSIONS: This retrospective analysis revealed that port-access cardiac surgery increases surgical complexity, increases operating room time, has no effect on earlier postoperative extubation or decreased incidence of atrial fibrillation or intensive care unit time, and may facilitate postoperative hospital discharge (primarily in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting). Properly designed prospective investigation is necessary to ascertain whether port-access cardiac surgery truly offers any benefits over conventional cardiac surgery.     

全麻复合硬膜外阻滞对换瓣手术病人术后血浆皮质醇、血糖及术后恢复的影响

目的观察全麻复合硬膜外阻滞对心脏瓣膜置换手术病人血浆皮质醇(Cor)、血糖(Glu)及术后恢复的影响。方法将20例换瓣手术病人随机分为全麻复合硬膜外阻滞(GEA)和单纯全麻(GA)两组。于术前、术后4 h、术后第1、3、7天取血浆测Cor、Glu浓度,并记录术后清醒时间和拔管时间。结果与术前比较,GA组病人术后4 h,术后第1天血浆Cor水平均显著升高(P<0.05),GEA组血浆Cor水平仅在术后4 h显著增高(P<0.05),但其术后4 h,术后第1天的血浆Cor水平明显低于GA组(P<0.05)。术后第1天,GEA组血浆Cor水平即恢复致术前水平,GA组至术后第3天才恢复致术前水平。两组病人Glu从术后4 h至第7天均高于麻醉前水平,GEA组升高的幅度小于GA组,在术后各时点两组之间差异有显著意义(P<0.05)。GEA组病人术后清醒时间、术后拔管时间早于GA组(P<0.05),术后VAS显著低于GA组(P<0.05)。结论全麻复合硬膜外阻滞可减轻心脏换瓣手术病人应激反应和术后疼痛,有利于病人术后早清醒与早拔管。     

The haemodynamic effect of carotid endarterectomy.

OBJECTIVES: to assess the haemodynamic effect of carotid artery surgery, and to relate postoperative changes to the state of cerebral circulation before revascularisation. MATERIALS AND METHODS: using transcranial Doppler we studied bilateral middle cerebral artery (MCA) flow velocities before and on 1st day, 2nd or 3rd day and 4th or 5th day and 3 months after carotid surgery in 61 patients. In addition, ipsilateral MCA flow velocity was monitored continuously during surgery. Data were related to the internal carotid artery (ICA) perfusion pressure (cerebral perfusion pressure index, CPPI), measured directly before ICA clamping. RESULTS: postoperatively, MCA flow velocities increased significantly overall (p<0.01), mainly due to pronounced and longer lasting flow velocities in the group of 18 patients with CPPI<0.7 (p<0.05). Flow velocities peaked - absolute as well as relative - on the first postoperative day and then gradually levelled off to reach preoperative values after 4-5 days in patients with high CPPI, whereas MCA flow velocities remained increased in the group of patients with low CPPI. At 3 months flow velocities in both groups were normalised. New neurological symptoms occurred in four patients, who all had low CPPI preoperatively (22% (4/18) vs 0%; Fisher's exact test: p=0.006). CONCLUSION: some degree of hyperperfusion was seen in most patients, but the changes were significantly more pronounced in patients with preoperative hypoperfusion, who also suffered significantly more neurological complications.     

Extubation time, hemodynamic stability, and postoperative pain control in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass surgery: an evaluation of fentanyl, remifentanil, and nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs with propofol for perioperative and postoperative management

STUDY OBJECTIVE: To compare three anesthetic strategies with respect to the time of extubation after coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery and to assess patient satisfaction with the procedure. DESIGN: Prospective, randomized, clinical study. SETTING: Tertiary-care referral center. PARTICIPANTS: 180 cardiac surgical patients undergoing primary CABG from January through June 2004. INTERVENTIONS: After induction of general anesthesia, patients were allocated to one of three groups. All three groups received a continuous infusion of intravenous (IV) propofol perioperatively and postoperatively. Group 1 (fentanyl infusion group, n = 60) received continuous IV fentanyl infusion perioperatively and postoperatively for analgesia. Group 2 (diclofenac group, n = 60) received fentanyl bolus doses intraoperatively and diclofenac suppository postoperatively. Group 3 (remifentanil group, n = 60) received continuous infusion of IV remifentanil perioperatively and IV fentanyl as an immediate postoperative bolus followed by continuous fentanyl infusion. Duration of postoperative ventilation up to the time of extubation, inotrope requirement, time at which analgesic infusion was discontinued, postextubation arterial blood gas analysis, pain evaluation via visual analog scale, need for rescue analgesia, awareness during surgery, and length of postcardiac surgical unit stay, were evaluated in each patient. MAIN RESULTS: The diclofenac group exhibited the shortest time to extubation, the least inotrope use, and the fewest rescue doses of analgesic than did patients of the other two groups. CONCLUSION: Intravenous propofol with bolus doses of IV fentanyl intraoperatively in combination with postoperative nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs had the best recovery profile in patients undergoing primary CABG than did the other two regimens studied.     

Daily comparison of respiratory functions between on-pump and off-pump patients undergoing CABG.

OBJECTIVE: Widespread application of on-pump revascularization procedures is increasing due to the thought of elimination of untoward effects of cardiopulmonary circuit. Thus, whether off-pump coronary artery surgery eliminates side effects especially related to respiratory functions is still controversial. Although many previous studies have evaluated these respiratory functions, daily comparison of 12 parameters was not included in any of the studies. The aim of our prospective study was to ascertain whether off-pump coronary operation improves pulmonary functions and postoperative recovery period when compared with on-pump technique and whether early discharge of patients with off-pump surgery is the result of respiratory improvement. METHODS: Eighteen patients in each group were included: on-pump group underwent coronary revascularization with cardiopulmonary bypass and off-pump with stabilization. Respiratory function tests and arterial blood gas analyses were performed preoperatively and daily after operation function tests included forced expiratory volume (FEV) in 1s, forced vital capacity (FVC), expiratory reserve volume, vital capacity, quotient of FEV in 1s to FVC, maximal voluntary ventilation (MVV), tidal volume, and forced midexpiratory flow. Blood gas analyses included partial arterial oxygen and carbon dioxide pressure, arterial pH and hematocrit (Hct). RESULTS: Preoperative pulmonary functions and arterial blood gases were not statistically significant between groups except MVV and partial arterial oxygen pressure. MVV was slightly higher in on-pump group and partial arterial oxygen pressure was slightly lower in on-pump group. During postoperative first day Hct (P=0.004) and FEV in 1s (P=0.049) values and third day partial arterial oxygen pressure (P=0.011) and Hct (P=0.011) values were lower in on-pump group. Mean extubation, duration in postoperative suit and hospital discharge times, mean blood loss were not statistically significant between groups postoperatively. CONCLUSION: Pulmonary functions and arterial blood gases were not improved in off-pump patients when compared with on-pump patients. Patients going to be surgically revascularized should not be altered to off-pump surgery merely with the hope of improving respiratory functions with off-pump technique. As the postoperative stay times at surgical theatre and hospital is not different and the extubation times were similar, early discharge of patients with off-pump surgery cannot be related merely to better preservation of respiratory functions.     

Off-pump versus on-pump coronary artery bypass surgery and postoperative pulmonary dysfunction

OBJECTIVE: To investigate how off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) affects postoperative pulmonary function when compared with on-pump CABG. DESIGN: Prospective clinical study. SETTING: University-affiliated teaching hospital. PARTICIPANTS: Adult patients (n = 39) undergoing elective coronary artery bypass surgery with or without cardiopulmonary bypass. INTERVENTIONS: Two groups of patients were compared: 19 consecutive patients undergoing off-pump CABG surgery and 20 consecutive patients undergoing conventional CABG surgery. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS: Pulmonary function tests (flow volume loops and lung volumes with plethysmography) were done preoperatively and 72 hours postoperatively. Arterial blood gases and PaO2/FIO2 were measured at various stages. Sequential chest x-rays were obtained and evaluated for pleural changes, pulmonary edema, and atelectasis. In both groups, PaO2/FIO2 ratios decreased progressively throughout the perioperative period, with no significant differences between the groups at any stage during the study. There was a significant decline in postoperative pulmonary function tests in both groups, but there was no difference between groups at 72 hours postoperatively. No differences were found in the time to extubation, atelectasis scores, or postoperative complications. CONCLUSIONS: Off-pump CABG does not confer major protection from postoperative pulmonary dysfunction compared with CABG surgery with CPB. Strategies for minimizing pulmonary impairment after CABG surgery should be directed to factors other than the use of CPB.     

Remifentanil or sufentanil for coronary surgery: comparison of postoperative respiratory impairment

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: High-dose opioid anaesthesia contributes to decreasing metabolic and hormonal stress responses in patients undergoing cardiac surgery. However, the increase in context-sensitive half-life of opioids given as a high-dose regimen can affect postoperative respiratory recovery. In contrast, remifentanil can be given in high doses without prolonging context-sensitive half-life due to its rapid metabolism. Therefore, we performed a prospective, randomized trial to compare anaesthesia consisting of propofol/remifentanil or propofol/sufentanil with regard to postoperative respiratory function and outcome. METHODS: Patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting were randomized to a propofol/remifentanil (0.5-1.0 microg kg(-1) min(-1)) or propofol/sufentanil (30-40 ng kg(-1) min(-1)) based anaesthetic. Carbon dioxide response, forced expiratory volume in one second, vital capacity, and functional residual capacity were measured 1 day prior to the operation, 1 h before extubation, 1, 24 and 72 h after extubation. In addition, the incidence of atelectasis, pulmonary infiltrates, intensive care unit and postoperative length of stay were compared. Patients and physicians were blinded to the treatment group. RESULTS: Twenty-five patients in each treatment group completed the study. There was no difference between patients of the treatment groups regarding demographics, risk- or pain scores. In all patients, carbon dioxide response, forced expiratory volume in one second, vital capacity and functional residual capacity were decreased postoperatively compared to baseline. Patients randomized to remifentanil had less depression of carbon dioxide response, less atelectasis and shorter postoperative length of stay (12 d vs. 10 d) than after sufentanil (P < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS: Intraoperative use of high-dose remifentanil for coronary artery bypass grafting may be associated with improved recovery of pulmonary function and shorter postoperative hospital length of stay than sufentanil.     

腹腔镜胆囊切除术对机体免疫功能的影响

目的：比较腹腔镜与开腹胆囊切除术对机体免疫功能的影响。方法：随机将有胆囊切除手术指征的80例患者分为2组,腹腔镜胆囊切除组（laparoscopic cholecystectomy,LC组）和开腹胆囊切除组（open cholecystectomy,OC组）各40例,测定并比较手术前后IgG、IgM、IgA,补体C3、C4水平及CD3^＋（T细胞总数）、CD4^＋（T辅助/诱导细胞）和CD8^＋的数量。结果：两组IgM、IgA、C4手术前后均无明显变化,两组间差异无统计学意义。LC组术后1d IgG、C3较术前有所下降,术后3d恢复至术前水平;OC组术后1d IgG、C3明显低于术前水平,术后5d恢复至术前水平;组间比较,OC组术后IgG、C3下降明显。LC组T淋巴细胞亚群手术前后差异无统计学意义,OC组术后1d CD3^＋、CD4^＋、CD8^＋与术前比较明显降低,术后5d恢复至术前水平;组间比较,术后1d、3d OC组CD3^＋、CD4^＋、CD8^＋均明显低于LC组。结论：腹腔镜手术对机体的免疫功能影响小,术后恢复快。     

Hyperprocalcitonemia is related to noninfectious postoperative severe systemic inflammatory response syndrome associated with cardiovascular dysfunction after coronary artery bypass graft surgery

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the role of 3 inflammatory parameters as early markers of severe systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) induced by coronary artery bypass graft surgery. DESIGN: Prospective study. SETTING: University hospital. PARTICIPANTS: Patients (n = 63) undergoing elective coronary artery bypass graft surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS: The American College of Chest Physicians/Society of Critical Care Medicine classification was used to diagnose SIRS. Organ system failures were used to define severe SIRS. Serum concentrations of the inflammatory parameters (procalcitonin [PCT], C-reactive protein, leukocyte count) were determined before, during, and after surgery. SIRS occurred in 30 (47%) patients after surgery. Seven patients (11%) showed SIRS with greater-than-or-equal1 organ dysfunction (severe SIRS), whereas patients without SIRS had no organ dysfunction. Significantly higher serum levels of PCT were found in patients with severe SIRS from the 6th postoperative hour until the 3rd postoperative day with a peak level of 10.7 plus minus 13.2 ng/mL. No significant difference was detected between serum PCT of patients with SIRS but without any organ dysfunction and patients without SIRS. PCT levels of these patients remained lower than 1.7 ng/mL. Compared with PCT, plasma concentrations of C-reactive protein peaked later on the 2nd postoperative day and were not able to confirm the severity of SIRS. Leukocyte counts were not significantly modified. CONCLUSIONS: PCT seems to be an appropriate marker to identify the early development of noninfectious postoperative severe SIRS after coronary artery bypass graft surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass.     

Early extubation does not increase complication rates after coronary artery bypass graft surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass

Background: With the evolution of anesthesia and surgical procedures, fast track extubation has gained an increased interest, mainly based on the possibility of reducing health costs seemingly without compromising patient care. Aim: To compare two groups of patients submitted to a non-fast track extubation and a fast track extubation protocol after coronary artery bypass graft surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass, regarding their times of ventilation and intubation and their complication rates in the postoperative period. Methods: During the year of 1998, 323 sequential patients scheduled for isolated coronary artery bypass graft surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass were enrolled in the study. Fifty-nine patients were excluded due to preoperative use of emergent mechanical and/or inotropic hemodynamic support, low body mass index (≤18–20 kg/m²), reoperations for acute surgical complications, off-pump coronary artery bypass graft surgery, severe respiratory disease, recent myocardial infarction (≤7 days) and absence of relevant data. Previous myocardial infarction (≥7 days), prophylactic intraaortic balloon pump and use of postoperative vasoactive drugs were not exclusion criteria. We compared 76 patients sequentially submitted to anesthesia by one of the authors with a fast track extubation protocol and 188 patients sequentially submitted to anesthesia by others in the same period and using a conventional anesthetic protocol. Results: Demographic data, previous medical and cardiac history, preoperative medication and operative data were all similar between the two groups. The mean ventilation and intubation times were significantly shorter in the fast track extubation group than in the non-fast track extubation patients (30 min vs. 7 h and 50 min vs. 8 h, respectively). Forty-two percent of patients in the fast track extubation group were extubated on arrival at the intensive care unit. Morbidity and mortality were similar in both groups. Conclusions: The study shows that a very fast track extubation protocol may be safely implemented in patients submitted to coronary artery bypass graft surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass.     

高龄患者腹腔镜结直肠癌根治术对机体应激及内脏蛋白的影响

目的:研究高龄患者腹腔镜与开腹结直肠癌根治术围手术期IL-6、IL-10和C反应蛋白(C-reactive protein,CRP)及内脏蛋白的差异。方法:按患者意愿将41例行结直肠癌根治术的高龄患者分为腹腔镜组(n=20)和开腹组(n=21),两组患者的年龄、性别、体重指数(BMI)等差异无统计学意义,具有可比性,检测两组患者术前、术后的应激指标:血清IL-6、IL-10、CRP及内脏蛋白:前白蛋白(prealbumin,PRE)、转铁蛋白(transferrin,TRF)、视黄醇结合蛋白(retinal-binding protein,RbP)的变化。结果:两组患者CRP在术后1、2、3d均较术前明显升高(P0.01),术后第2天达峰值,腹腔镜组术后CRP明显低于开腹组(P0.01);两组患者血清IL-6、IL-10术后明显升高,腹腔镜组明显低于开腹组(P0.01),IL-10升高持续时间短。术后两组PRE、TRF、RbP均较术前明显下降(P0.01),术后1、2d两组各项指标差异无统计学意义(P0.05),术后第3天腹腔镜组4种蛋白指标均明显高于开腹组(P0.01)。结论:本组高龄患者术后应激水平及内脏蛋白指标的结果显示,腹腔镜结直肠癌根治术较开腹手术创伤小,应激水平低,有利于机体内脏蛋白的恢复,这对实施微创外科是有力的支持。
