Overview
Brief Summary
The goal of this study is to examine the influence of mechanical ventilation on the occurrence of myocardial ischemia in patients undergoing endo-CABG.
Detailed Description
Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) surgery is one of the main treatment options for patients suffering from coronary artery disease, a condition characterized by a build-up of cholesterol in the coronary arteries of the heart that affects 126 million people worldwide each year. During this procedure, cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) takes over the function of the heart and lungs. In recent years, there has been a huge focus on reducing surgical trauma in this procedure, leading to the emergence of minimally invasive cardiac surgery (MICS) such as endoscopic CABG (endo-CABG). In these techniques, peripheral CPB with femoral arterial cannulation is the most commonly used strategy. However, the use of retrograde arterial perfusion is not without risk. It can cause that the upper part of the body only receives deoxygenated blood. The effect on the heart is not yet fully known. The hypoxemia could cause myocardial ischemia and this could damage the heart muscle cells. It is reported in the literature that establishing adequate ventilation from the initiation of CPB to cardiac arrest can resolve this phenomenon. This approach was investigated in a recently performed double-blinded, randomized, controlled pilot study (n=10) of our research group. However, a larger randomized controlled trial was needed. Therefore, this research aims to investigate the effect of continued mechanical ventilation on the occurrence of myocardial ischemia in patients undergoing endo-CABG.

Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
The influence of continued mechanical ventilation on lactate
Time Frame: Until the end of surgery (on average until 203 minutes after the start of the surgery)
Lactate is represented in mmol/L.
The influence of continued mechanical ventilation on the release of cardiac troponin T (cTn-T)
Time Frame: Until 24 hours after clamping the aorta
Cardiac troponin T is represented in ng/L. If the value of cTn-T exceeds 14 ng/L, then cTn-T is able to detect myocardial ischemia at the predefined time points.
The influence of continued mechanical ventilation on the redox balance
Time Frame: Until unclamping the aorta (on average until 64 minutes after clamping the aorta) ]
superoxide dismutase 1 and 2 (SOD1, SOD2), nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2), catalase (CAT), glutathione peroxidase (GPx), NADPH oxidase 2 and 4 (NOX2, NOX4), heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1), NAD(P)H quinone oxidoreductase 1 (NQO-1)) will be studied to determine the redox balance.
The influence of continued mechanical ventilation on the release of creatine kinase-myocardial band (CK-MB)
Time Frame: Until 24 hours after clamping the aorta
Creatine kinase-myocardial (CK-MB) band is represented in µg/L. If the value of CK-MB exceeds 6.2 µg/L, then CK-MB is able to detect myocardial ischemia at the predefined time points.
The influence of continued mechanical ventilation on the release of heart-type fatty acid-binding protein (hFABP)
Time Frame: Until 5 hours after clamping the aorta
Heart-type fatty acid-binding protein (hFABP) is represented in ng/L. If the value of hFABP exceeds 6 ng/L, then hFABP is able to detect myocardial ischemia at the predefined time points.
The influence of continued mechanical ventilation on lipid peroxidation
Time Frame: Until unclamping the aorta (on average until 64 minutes after clamping the aorta)
Lipid peroxidation is measured using the malondialdehyde assay.
The influence of continued mechanical ventilation on the partial pressure of oxygen (pO2)
Time Frame: Until the end of surgery (on average until 203 minutes after the start of the surgery)
pO2 is represented in mmHg. If pO2 is lower than 60 mmHg, then hypoxemia is present.
The influence of continued mechanical ventilation on the partial pressure of carbon dioxide (pCO2)
Time Frame: Until the end of surgery (on average until 203 minutes after the start of the surgery)
pCO2 is represented in mmHg.
The influence of continued mechanical ventilation on the pH
Time Frame: Until the end of surgery (on average until 203 minutes after the start of the surgery)
The pH will measure the acidity.
Secondary Outcomes
- The occurence of neurological complications(Until 30 days after surgery)
- The occurence of graft failure(Until 30 days after surgery)
- The occurence of myocardial infarction(Until 30 days after surgery)
- The occurence of mortality(Until 30 days after surgery)
