| Popis: | To evaluate the effects of 5% carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) administration for hypothermic circulatory arrest, neurological evaluation and pathological studies were carried out on the canine brain. Twenty-two dogs were assigned to five groups: Group 1: Three dogs without hypothermia were sacrificed as the control group. Group 2: Nine dogs were subjected to surface hypothermia (20 °C) under deep ether anesthesia with 100% oxygen (O 2 ) and hyperventilation. Circulatory arrest time was 30 min in Group 2A and 60 min in Group 2B. Group 3: Ten dogs were surface cooled (20 °C) under deep ether anesthesia with a 95% O 2 and 5% CO 2 mixture. Thirty minutes of circulatory arrest was instituted in Group 3A and 60 min in Group 3B. Dogs in Groups 2 and 3 were surface rewarmed and kept alive until they were sacrificed electively 6 or more months later. Results were as follows: (i) Postoperative neurological disturbance was detected in only two dogs in Group 2B. (ii) The percentage of damaged nerve cells among the total nerve cells counted in the cerebral cortex of the frontal lobe was significantly greater in Groups 2A (22.4%), 2B (30.1%), 3A (19.6%), and 3B (22.2%) compared with Group 1 (7.1%). (iii) The number of glia cells per nerve cell in the cerebellar dentate nucleus was significantly higher in Group 2B (27.2) than in Groups 1 (11.8), 2A (16.7), 3A (17.9), and 3B (18.6). (iv) The number of Purkinje cells in a 10-mm length of the cerebellum was markedly reduced to 89 in Group 2B compared with 122, 134, and 117 in Groups 1, 2A, and 3A, respectively. In conclusion, the results of quantitative pathological brain analysis reflected the incidence of postoperative neurological disturbance and suggested that the administration of 5% CO 2 could prolong the time limit for circulatory arrest. |
