分析心功能不全冠心病患者施行非體外循環冠狀動脈旁路移植術（OPCAB）的臨床資料，探討其手術風險，提出治療方案。 方法 將2004年1月至2008年6月首都醫科大學附屬北京安貞醫院66例冠心病患者，按心功能不同分為3組，每組22例，組1：男18例，女4例；年齡55.3±9.1歲；術前左心室射血分數（LVEF）lt;30%；組2：男19例，女3例；年齡55.5±10.2歲；30%≤LVEFlt;40%；組3：男17例，女5例；年齡55.8±8.7歲；LVEF≥40％；組2和組3作為對照。觀察圍術期臨床資料包括術前調整時間、移植血管支數、同期室壁瘤手術、呼吸機輔助呼吸時間、主動脈內球囊反搏(IABP)使用時間、住ICU時間、強心藥種類、術后住院時間和住院費用等的改變。 結果 術后無死亡和嚴重并發癥發生，均痊愈出院。組1術前調整時間（18.9±14.6 d vs. 10.8±7.4 d,P=0.023）、使用IABP例數（7 vs.1, P=0.012）、住ICU時間（3.0±0.7 d vs. 1.2±0.6 d,P=0.008）、強心藥種類（1.6±0.7種 vs. 1.0±0.2種,P=0.000）、術后住院時間（17.4±12.1 d vs. 11.8±34 d,P=0.038）和住院費用（11.4±5.2萬元 vs. 7.6±1.7萬元,P=0.007）均多于組3，兩組比較差異均有統計學意義。3組患者均獲得隨訪，隨訪時間3～6個月，均生存，隨訪期間無明顯心絞痛發作。 結論 心功能不全患者行OPCAB手術安全，但所需醫療資源多，須慎重選擇。
ObjectiveTo analyze the early outcomes of anomalous origin of the left coronary artery from the pulmonary artery (ALCAPA) patients with severe left ventricular dysfunction after surgical repair, and to explore the predictors for extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) support for these patients.MethodsThe clinical data of ALCAPA patients with severe left ventricular dysfunction (left ventricular ejection fraction<40%) who underwent coronary artery reimplantation in the pediatric center of our hospital from 2013 to 2020 were retrospectively analyzed. The patients were divided into an ECMO group and a non-ECMO group. Clinical data of the two groups were compared and analyzed.ResultsA total of 64 ALCAPA patients were included. There were 7 patients in the ECMO group, including 4 males and 3 females aged 6.58±1.84 months. There were 57 pateints in the non-ECMO group, including 30 males and 27 females aged 4.34±2.56 months. The mortality of the patients was 6.25% (4/64), including 2 patients in the ECMO group, and 2 in the non-ECMO group. The postoperative complications rate was significantly higher in the ECMO group than that in the non-ECMO group (P=0.041). There were statistical differences in the cardiopulmonary bypass time [254 (153, 417) min vs. 106 (51, 192) min, P=0.013], aortic cross-clamping (ACC) time (89.57±13.66 min vs. 61.58±19.57 min, P=0.039), and preoperative left ventricular end-diastolic diameter/body surface area (132.32±14.71 mm/m2 vs. 108.00±29.64 mm/m2, P=0.040) between the two groups. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that ACC time was an independent risk factor for postoperative ECMO support (P=0.005). Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis showed that the area under the ROC curve was 0.757, the sensitivity was 85.70%, specificity was 66.70%, with the cut-off value of 66 min.ConclusionACC time is an independent risk factor for postoperative ECMO support. Patients with an ACC time>66 min have a significantly higher risk for ECMO support after the surgery.
ObjectiveTo retrospectively compare and analyze the effect of myocardial protection between histidinetryptophane-ketoglutarate (HTK) and 4:1 blood cardioplegia in patients with complex coronary artery disease and left ventricular dysfunction.
MethodsFrom January 2003 to July 2013, 2132 patients underwent isolated coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) in our institution. Among them, 227 patients with complex coronary artery disease (left main or triple vessel disease) and left ventricular dysfunction (ejection fraction ≤ 50%) were included in this study. According to the category of cardioplegia utilized in the operations, the patients were divided into two groups: a HTK group (85 males and 4 females, n=89) and a blood cardioplegia group (113 males and 25 females, n=138). The average age was 62.78±9.30 years in the HTK group and 62.74±9.07 years in the blood cardioplegia group. The effect of myocardial protection between two groups was compared.
ResultsAccording to the pre-operational data of these two groups, there was no significant difference identified in terms of basic characteristics and risk factors, even though more female patients were found in the blood cardiophegia group and more patients with renal dysfunction were found in the HTK group. In addition, the patients in the HTK group had more distal anastomosis, longer cardiopulmonary time and cross clamping time than those in the blood cardiophegia group. Based on the results measured by those primary assessment criteria,there was no significant difference being found between these two groups. However, on those secondary assessment criteria the pulmonary pressure and inotropic support after reperfusion were significantly higher in the HTK group than its counterpart.
ConclusionFor patients with complex coronary artery disease and left ventricular dysfunction, HTK solution and blood cardioplegia provide similar effective myocardial protection. HTK doesn't significantly increase postoperative adverse cardiovascular events under the circumstance of longer ischemic time.
Objective
To systematically review whether the prevalence of left ventricular diastolic dysfunction was higher in systemic sclerosis (SSc) patients.
Methods
The Cochrane Library, PubMed, EMbase, CBM, CNKI and WanFang Data databases were electronically searched to collect the studies about comparing echocardiographic parameters in SSc patients and controls from January 1990 to June 2016. Two reviewers independently screened literature, extracted data and assessed the risk of bias of included studies, then, meta-analysis was performed by using RevMan 5.3 software.
Results
A total of 22 studies involving 1 146 patients were included. The results of meta-analysis showed that: compared to controls, patients with SSc had prolonged left isovolumetric relaxation time (MD=10.40, 95%CI 4.04 to 16.77, P=0.001), higher trans-mitral A-wave velocity (MD=0.11, 95%CI 0.07 to 0.15, P<0.000 01), prolonged mitral deceleration time (MD=8.04, 95%CI 2.66 to 13.42,P=0.003), larger mean left atrial dimension (MD=1.43, 95%CI 0.11 to 2.76, P=0.03), higher estimated pulmonary artery pressure (MD=11.35, 95%CI 6.08 to 16.6, P<0.001), higher E/E’ ratio (MD=2.08, 95%CI 0.19 to 3.96,P=0.03) and lower trans-mitral E-wave velocity (MD=–0.03, 95%CI –0.05 to –0.01, P=0.000 3), mitral E/A ratio (MD=–0.24, 95%CI –0.32 to –0.15, P<0.000 01) and trans-mitral E’-wave velocity (MD=–1.52, 95%CI –2.44 to –0.60,P=0.001). There were no differences in left ventricular ejection fraction, isovolumetric end-systolic dimension, septal end-diastolic thickness and posterior wall end-diastolic thickness, trans-mitral A’-wave velocity, E’/A’ ratio.
Conclusion
SSc patients are more likely to have echocardiographic parameters of LVDD. Due to limited quality and quantity of the included studies, more high quality studies are needed to verify above conclusion.
ObjectiveTo analyze long-term outcomes of aortic valve replacement (AVR) for patients with severe aortic regurgitation (AR) and left ventricular dysfunction (LVD).
MethodsWe retrospectively analyzed clinical data of 44 patients with severe AR and LVD who received AVR in Drum Tower Hospital from January 2002 to December 2012. Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) of all the patients was lower than 35%. There were 29 male and 15 female patients with their age of 23-78 (44±6) years and LVEF of 22%-34% (29%±3%).
ResultsTwo patients died because of heart failure postoperatively. Cardiopulmonary bypass time was 57-92 (73±8) minutes, aortic cross-clamping time was 33-61 (48±6)minutes, and length of ICU stay was 2-15 (8±3) days. All the patients were followed up for 1-11 (4.3±2.9) years. Two patients died during follow-up because of heart failure and stroke respectively. One-year survival rate was 93% and five-year survival rate was 91%.
ConclusionAVR can significantly increase long-time survival of patients with severe AR and LVD.
