Presentation Transcript

  1. Cardiopulmonary Bypass

  2. Cardiac surgery • Coronary revascularisation (On and off pump) • Valvular heart disease • Surgery for heart failure • Transplantation and assist devices • Congenital and GUCH surgery • Minimally invasive techniques • Re-do surgery • Miscellaneous (trauma, tumours, aneurysms, septal defects, pericardiectomy, embolectomy, dissections)

  3. Adult Cardiac Surgery

  4. Heart - coronary artery bypass (diagram)

  5. The Heart-Lung machine • Venous cannulae • Venous reservoir • Oxygenator/Heat exchanger • Pump • Arterial line filter • Arterial cannula • Cardiotomy suction • Cardioplegia delivery system

  6. Venous Reservoir • Siphons blood by gravity • Provide storage of excess volume • Allows escape of any air bubbles returning with the venous blood

  7. Oxygenator • Provides oxygen to the blood • Removes carbon dioxide • Several types • Bubble oxygenator • Membrane oxygenator • Microporous hollow-fiber oxygenators

  8. Heat Exchanger • Also called the heater / cooler • Controls perfusate temperature • Warm and cold Q10

  9. Cardiopulmonary Bypass • Heparinization • Total bypass • Partial bypass • Flowrates 2-2.5 l/min. per square meter • Flowrates depend on body size • Flowrates depend on cannula sizes • Hypothermia

  10. Shed Blood • Is aspirated with a suctioning apparatus, filtered and return to the oxygenator • A cell saving device may also be utilized during and after bypass

  11. Blood Pressure • Decreases sharply with onset of bypass (vasodilatation) • Mean arterial pressure needs to the above 50-60 mm Hg. • After 30 minutes perfusion pressure usually increases (vasoconstriction)

  12. Oxygen and Carbon Dioxide Tensions • Concentrations are periodically measured in both arterial and venous lines • Arterial oxygen tension should be above 100 mm Hg • Arterial carbon dioxide tensions should be 30-35 mm Hg • A drop in venous oxygen saturation suggests underperfusion

  13. Acid-Base Regulatory Strategy • pH-stat strategy • Aim ; constant pH, • Total CO2 ; increased • Intracellular state ; acidosis • Alpha-stat strategy • Aim; constant OH/H, • Total CO2 ; constant , • Intracellular state ; neutral

  14. Myocardial Protection • Cold hyperkalemic solutions • Produces myocardial quiescence • Decreases metabolic rate • Provides protection for 2-3 hours • Blood vs. crystalloid

  15. Chemical Principles Inducing Cardiac Arrest • Myocardial depletion of calcium • Myocardial depletion of sodium • Elevation of extracellular sodium • Elevation of extracellular magnesium • Infusion of local anesthetic agents • Infusion of calcium & antagonistics

  16. Function of Cardioplegic Protection • 1. Electromechanical arrest • 2. Function of temperature effect • 3. Function of oxygen content • 4. Substrate enhancement • 5. Buffering capacity

  17. Termination of Perfusion • Systemic rewarming • Flowrates are decreased • Hemodynamic parameters • Venous line clamping • Pharmacologic support • Neutralization of heparin

  18. Complications of Cardio- Pulmonary Bypass • Duration of bypass • Age • Cardiac function

  19. Organ dysfunction after bypass • Heart: C3a and endothelin cause coronary constriction. Oedema reduces contractility. • Lung: Complement increases pulmonary capillary permeability. Composition of alveolar surfactant changes. Pulmonary compliance decrease. Pain inhibits respiration. • CNS: Incidence of stroke 1-5%. Subtle neurological injuries up to 50% of patients. • Kidney:Preoperative renal status and periods of low cardiac output after CPB are the most important predictors of post-op renal function. • GI:Liver dysfunction. Pancreatitis. GI bleeding. Mesenteric ischaemia due to vasculitis.

  20. Open Heart Surgery • Neurologic injury • Neurologic injury is the second most common reason for death in open heart operations • Significant neurologic injury was observed in 2% to 5% of patients, whereas mild cognitive dysfunction was seen in 70% of patients in the early stage • Extracorporeal circulation does not cause changes in brain blood circulation, but hemodilution and decrease in oncotic pressure lead to edema in the brain and in other organs • Cerebral ischemia due to microemboli or macroemboli, systemic inflammatory response, and cerebral hypoperfusion during cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) causes impairment in the blood brain barrier.

  21. Optimal Neurologic Protection • Variables • Perfusion pressure • Flow rate • Duration of cooling • Duration of circulatory arrest • Hematocrit • Ultrafiltration • Blood gas strategy • Presence of collateral flow • Impact of age

  22. Postpump Syndrome on Lung • Characteristics • Increased alveolo-arterial gradient (A-aDO2) and intrapulmonary shunt • Decreased pulmonary compliance • Increased pulmonary vascular resistance • Increased pulmonary vascular perrmeability

  23. IABP Background • Preload • Afterload • Coronary flow • Myocardial oxygen consumption in the heart is determined by: • Pulse rate • Transmural wall stress • Intrinsic contractile properties

  24. Myocardial Oxygen Consumption • Has a linear relationship to: • Systolic wall stress • Intraventricular pressure • Afterload • End diastolic volume • Wall thickness

  25. IABP in Myocardial Infarction and Cardiogenic Shock • Improves diastolic flow velocities after angioplasty • Allows for additional intervention to be done more safely

  26. IABP During or After Cardiac Surgery • Patients who have sustained ventricular damage preoperatively and experience harmful additional ischemia during surgery • Some patients begin with relatively normal cardiac function an experienced severe, but reversible, myocardial stunning during the operation

  27. Other Indications for IABP • Prophylactic use prior to cardiac surgery in patients with: • Left main disease • Unstable angina • Poor left ventricular function • Severe aortic stenosis Contraindications to IABP • Severe aortic insufficiency • Aortic aneurysm • Severe ilio-femoral vessel disease

  28. Insertion Techniques • Percutaneous • sheath less • Surgical insertion Positioning The end of the balloon should be just distal to the takeoff of the left subclavian artery Position should be confirmed by fluoroscopy or chest x-ray

  29. Timing of Counterpulsation • Electrocardiographic • Arterial pressure tracing

  30. Complications • Limb ischemia • Thrombosis • Emboli • Bleeding and insertion site • Groin hematomas • Aortic perforation and/or dissection • Renal failure and bowel ischemia • Neurologic complications including paraplegia • Heparin induced thrombocytopenia • Infection
