Abstrakt: Twenty-six consecutive pediatric patients undergoing reparative procedures necessitating cardiopulmonary bypass were prospectively studied to determine changes in serum levels of 6-keto-prostaglandin F1αand thromboxane B2. Cardiac lesions included acyanotic lesions (five patients), obstructive lesions (10 patients), and right-to-left shunts (11 patients). There was a significant (p < 0.05) increase in 6-keto-prostaglandin F1αfrom preoperative levels to levels measured at the time of arterial and venous cannula insertion. This concentration was maintained throughout cardiopulmonary bypass and remained significantly elevated (p <0.001) in the recovery room, but returned to preoperative levels by the morning after the operation. Preoperative levels of thromboxane B2varied widely and were not significantly different from intraoperative levels. The postoperative levels of thromboxane B2, however, were significantly different (p <0.05) from the intraoperative levels. In the pediatric age group undergoing cardiopulmonary bypass, 6-keto-prostaglandin F1αand thromboxane B2change during bypass but do not significantly differ when preoperative levels are compared to postoperative values.
