Abstract:
The adverse effects of cardiopulmonary bypass during open cardiac surgery, including hemodilution, seem to be inevitable, especially for patients who generally have a relatively lower BMI with relatively small blood volumes. This study reports the modification and use of a cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) system to reduce priming volume and hemodilution. Methods This is a retrospective study of 462 adult patients who underwent cardiac valve replacement surgery from January 2019 to September 2021 at the General Hospital of Western Theater Command. The modified group consisted of 212 patients undergoing modified CPB. The control group included 250 patients receiving conventional CPB. Evaluated indices included fluid intake and output volumes during CPB, intraoperative indices related to CPB operation, usage of blood products during the peri-CPB period, and postoperative outcomes. Results The modified group displayed a significant reduction in the crystalloid (200 mL vs. 600 mL, P 〈 0.05) and colloid priming volumes (450 mL vs. 1100 mL, P 〈 0.05), and ultrafiltration solution volume (750 mL vs. 1200 mL, P 〈 0.05). Furthermore, the modified group had a significantly lower rate of defibrillation (30.2% vs. 41.2%, P 〈 0.05). The intraoperative urine volume (650 mL vs. 500 mL, P 〈 0.05) and intraoperative hematocrit (Hct) (26% vs. 24%, P 〈 0.05) of the modified CPB group were also higher than in the control group. The modified group required a lower infusion volume of packed red blood cells (250 mL vs. 400 mL, P 〈 0.05) and lower infusion rates of packed red blood cells (17.9% vs. 25.2%, P 〈 0.05) and fresh frozen plasma (1.41% vs. 5.2%, P 〈 0.05). In addition, the modified group showed significantly improved indices related to postoperative recovery. Conclusions The modified CPB system effectively conserves blood and shows noteworthy potential for application in cardiac valve replacement surgery.
