简要总结
In Denmark around 3500 procedures are conducted involving a heart-lung-machine per year. An increase in the prevalence of postoperative kidney insufficiency have been observed following these procedures, during the last years. Kidney related complications are associated with a higher mortality and morbidity.
The reason and mechanisms behind this impaired kidney function is unknown. One possible cause could be that the blood pressure used in the heart-lung-machine is too low, during surgery. In the PPC trial we plan to include 100 patients. One half of the patients are operated with a normal, lower, blood pressure on the heart-lung-machine. The other half receives a blood pressure of > 60 mmHg during surgery.
The primary goal of the trial is to measure the kidney function (GFR) the day before surgery compared to day 4 - 6 and 4 months (+/- 14 days) after surgery. During the surgery a catheter is inserted through the femoral vein into the kidney vein. This makes it possible to measure several biochemical markers and the oxygen consumption of the kidney, during the surgery. Urine samples are also collected and analyzed.
The study hypothesis:
The glomerular filtration rate (GFR) is better preserved after cardiac surgery with extra corporal circulation with an intended increased periprocedural arterial blood pressure compared to current practice.
详细描述
- Introduction:
Renal function and cardiac surgery
Impaired kidney function is a well known complication to cardiac surgery and is observed in up to 30% of the patients, depending on the definition of acute kidney injury (AKI). The precise pathophysiological mechanisms are unknown, it is, however, quite obvious that AKI is not initiated by a single harmful factor but seems to be the result of different combined factors. Known risk factors for the development of postoperative AKI are cardiac incompensation, poor ejection fraction, gender, chronic obstructive lung disease, insulin dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM), previous heart surgery, acute surgery, complexity of surgery, preoperative creatinine levels and prolonged duration of extracorporeal perfusion. These associations are not necessarily causal. It is not surprising that a subacute operation for a severe aortic stenosis in a patient with preoperatively poor circulation and a marginally increased S-creatinine, results in impaired renal function postoperatively. However, to conclude that cardiac surgery is the reason for AKI is not justified.
Several peroperative factors are likely to contribute in the development of AKI. Renal perfusion and oxygen delivery might be reduced (hypotension, lack of pulsatile flow during extracorporeal circulation (ECC), vasoactive pharmacological agents, anaesthesia), risk for emboli, general inflammatory response, direct nephrotoxins (free haemoglobin, free radicals, gentamycin etc.) and haemodilution. Current knowledge is limited and the general insight into regional perfusion during extracorporeal perfusion (heart-lung-machine) is very sparse.
There do, however, exist guidelines regarding flow and blood pressure during ECC, but these are based upon empiric data, which are controversial and vary from centre to centre.

研究组 & 干预措施
Standard blood pressure
Extracorporeal circulation during the surgery are conducted using standard blood pressure
MAP > 60 mmHg
A blood pressure of MAP > 60 mmHg is used during extracorporeal circulation. The higher MAP is maintained by using continuous intravenous administration of norepinephrine titrated to the appropriate dose for each patient.
干预措施: MAP > 60 mmHg (Procedure)
