Popis: | BACKGROUND: We performed a prospective randomized trial to compare intermittent antegrade warm blood cardioplegia with intermittent antegrade and retrograde cold crystalloid cardioplegia. METHODS: Two hundred consecutive patients scheduled for isolated coronary bypass surgical procedures were randomized into two groups: Group 1 (n = 92) received cold crystalloid cardioplegia with moderate systemic hypothermia, group 2 (n = 108) received intermittent antegrade warm blood cardioplegia with systemic normothermia. Preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative data were prospectively collected. RESULTS: For the same median number of distal anastomoses, cardiopulmonary bypass duration and total ischemic arrest duration (57.3 +/- 20.5 versus 75 +/- 22.1 minutes, p < 0.001) were shorter in group 2 than in group 1. Apart from a higher right atrial pressure in the cold cardioplegia group, no hemodynamic difference was observed. Aspartate aminotransferase, creatine kinase-MB fraction, and cardiac troponin I levels were significantly lower in group 2 than in group 1. Outcome variables were not significantly different. CONCLUSIONS: Intermittent antegrade warm blood cardioplegia results in less myocardial cell damage than cold crystalloid cardioplegia, as assessed by the release of cardiac-specific markers. This beneficial effect has only marginal clinical consequences. Normothermic bypass has no deleterious effect on end-organ function. |
