Dexmedetomidine (DEX) is a sedative used in combination with other drugs in neonates and infants undergoing cardiac surgery using cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). This study aimed to evaluate the disposition of DEX after administration to the ex vivoCPB circuits following different bolus doses and continuous infusion of DEX, including the effect of circuit coating, temperature, and modified ultrafiltration (MUF). Cardiopulmonary bypass circuits were setup ex vivoand primed with reconstituted blood. Dexmedetomidine was administered to the circuit (as a single bolus or single bolus along with continuous infusion). The circuit was allowed to equilibrate during the first 5 minutes, blood samples were collected at multiple time points (5–240 minutes). Blood samples were processed to collect plasma and analyzed for DEX with a validated assay. The majority of DEX sequestration in ex vivoCPB circuits occurred within the first 15 minutes. The percent of DEX remained in plasma pre-MUF (16–71%) and post-MUF (22–92%) varied depending on the dose and dosing scheme. Modified ultrafiltration significantly increased the plasma concentration of DEX in 19 of 23 circuits by an average of 12.1 ± 4.25% (p< 0.05). The percent sequestration of DEX was lower in CPB circuits at lower DEX doses compared to higher doses. A combination of DEX initial loading dose and continuous infusion resulted in steady concentrations of DEX over 4 hours. At therapeutically relevant concentrations of DEX (485–1,013 pg/ml), lower sequestration was observed in ex vivoCPB circuits compared to higher doses. The sequestration of DEX to circuits should be considered to achieve the optimal concentration of DEX during CPB surgery. |
