Filter by:Coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery is still the standard treatment of coronary revascularization for patients with severe coronary artery disease (CAD). Graft patency, together with completeness of revascularization, is a major determinant of long-term outcome following CABG. The surgical procedure elicits a persistent systemic inflammatory response associated with the activation of the hemostatic system leading to perturbation of endothelial and vascular function and activation of platelets and leukocytes. All of these events are the main players responsible for the early and late graft failure in a significant percentage of patients.
TEE has a definite effect on the evaluation of cardiac structure and function in perioperative cardiac surgery. However, in CABG, previous studies on TEE mainly focused on whether to change the surgical plan rather than improve the clinical prognosis. There are few related studies on the evaluation of prognosis, and these studies have low efficacy and inconsistent conclusions. Acute kidney injury is the most common complication of CABG surgery and is independently associated with hospitalization and long-term mortality. In CABG patients, acute kidney injury, in addition to operation-related factors, is closely related to renal perfusion. These patients often exist serious coronary multivessel lesions and right heart dysfunction, which can cause the system obstacle of regurgitation of the inferior vena cava and kidney blood stasis, while the inappropriate rehydration fluid overload will affect kidney blood perfusion, which may be one of the reasons for the kidney injury. Therefore, appropriate volume status plays an important role in maintaining right heart function and renal perfusion. What indicators can the investigators use to effectively evaluate the patient's volume status and monitor the patient's right heart function? In recent years, ultrasound has been used as an effective tool to assess patient volume status , right heart function, and to guide patient fluid management. Many studies have confirmed that the respiratory variability of inferior vena cava diameter (ΔIVC) measured by TTE has a good correlation with the volume status of patients on mechanical ventilation, which has a high diagnostic value for predicting the fluid responsiveness and guiding fluid management.However, no study has been reported using TEE measurements of ΔIVC to assess volume status and guide fluid management in patients undergoing cardiac bypass surgery. Previous studies have confirmed that TAPSE measured by TTE is independently associated with AKI in ICU patients and can predict the occurrence of AKI in such patients. However, TAPSE monitored by TEE have not been reported in this regard. Can ΔIVC and TAPSE predict the incidence of AKI and major cardiovascular and cerebrovascular adverse events in CABG patients? Therefore, the investigators designed this observational study to further scientifically confirm the validity and guiding significance of ΔIVC and TAPSE in CABG, so as to protect and improve patients' renal function , reduce postoperative mortality and improve the clinical prognosis.
The aim of this study is to determine whether ketamine is an acceptable alternative to etomidate for anesthesia induction in coronary artery bypass graft surgery in terms of hemodynamic stability and also to compare these agents regarding their effect on adrenal gland steroid synthesis in these patients.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether sodium nitrite administration 24 hours prior to or during coronary artery bypass surgery protects the heart better from lack of blood flow which occurs as part of this type of operation. The study will also determine what the mechanisms of this cardioprotection are.
