ObjectiveTo investigate the efficacy of intravenous infusion of recombinant human brain natriuretic peptide in rheumatic heart valves patients with cardiorenal syndrome preoperatively, the function and operational results before and after treatment were compared. MethodsA randomized, single-blind, and controlled study was conducted in 60 patients characterized of rheumatic heart valves patients in our hospital from March 2012 through March 2015. There were 24 males and 36 females at average age of 52.1±8.9 years (ranged from 35-73 years). Their left ventricular ejection fraction was less than 40% and plasma creatinine was mildly or moderately raised. They were recruited into an experiment group and a control group by random digital table. The control group received continuous intravenous Dopamine and Nitroglycerin based anti-heart failure treatment (n=30). The experimental group received additional recombinant human brain natriuretic peptide for 48 hours without bolus (at a dose of 0.006 μg·kg-1·min-1, n=30). The levels of the biomarkers for cardiac and renal function between before and after treatment were compared. ResultsIn the experiment group, treatment with recombinant human brain natriuretic peptide for 48 hours had lower level of plasma NT-proBNP than the baseline level with a statistical difference (88.6±55.1 pg/ml vs. 55.0±47.6 pg/ml, P=0.014), lower level of high sensitivity creative reaction protein than the baseline level with a statistical difference (2.79±1.27 mg/l vs. 1.39±0.79 mg/l, P=0.000), more 24 hours urine output than the baseline level with a statistical difference (1 464.0±348.3 ml vs. 1 223.0±279.9 ml, P=0.005), lower level of serum cystatin-C than the baseline level with a statistical difference (0.25±0.14 mg/l vs. 0.08±0.07 mg/l, P=0.000), higher inotrope requirement within three days after operation (2.52±1.30 mg·kg-1·min-1 vs.3.36±1.15 mg·kg-1·min-1, P=0.011), less ICU stay days (4.5±1.2 days vs. 5.3±1.6 days, P=0.03). There were no statistical differences between the experiment group and the control group after treatment in cardiac function class, left ventricular ejection fraction, left ventricular end-diastolic diameter, creatinine, chest tube drainage volume, and intra-aortic balloon pumping use. ConclusionIntravenous injection of recombinant human brain natriuretic peptide in the patients with rheumatic valve disease combined with cardiorenal syndrome before operation can decrease systemic inflammation reaction and cardiac and renal function injury, and enhance operational recovery.
Objective To evaluate the clinical effectiveness of valve-sparing aortic root replacement (VSARR) in the treatment of patients with dilated aortic root after operation for tetralogy of Fallot (TOF). Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on clinical data of TOF patients with aortic root dilation who underwent VSARR in our hospital from 2016 to 2022. Results Finally 14 patients were collected, including 8 males and 6 females, with a median age of 22 years ranging from 12-48 years. Among them, 5 patients had severe aortic valve regurgitation, 4 moderate regurgitation, and 5 mild or no regurgitation. Six patients had sinus of valsalva dilation, and 8 significant dilation of the ascending aorta. One patient had residual shunt due to ventricular septal defect, and 9 severe pulmonary valve regurgitation. The David procedure was performed in 10 patients, Yacoub procedure in 2 patients, and Florida sleeve in 2 patients. There was no perioperative mortality in the group. The median follow-up time was 2.9 years (ranging from 0.4 to 6.0 years). One patient had mild aortic valve regurgitation, and the rest had minimal or no regurgitation. One patient had mild stenosis of the left ventricular outflow tract, and the rest patients had no obvious stenosis. Conclusion VSARR is a satisfactory treatment for aortic root dilation in patients with TOF, with no significant increase in the incidence of left ventricular outflow tract stenosis or aortic regurgitation during mid-term follow-up.
ObjectiveTo evaluate the safety and efficacy of total arterial off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (OPCABG) using a left internal thoracic artery (LITA) combined with bilateral radial arteries (RAs). MethodsWe retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of patients with severe multi-vessel coronary artery disease who underwent total arterial OPCABG with a LITA and bilateral RAs at Sichuan Provincial People’s Hospital from November 2020 to April 2023. Results A total of 24 patients were included, comprising 23 males and 1 female, with a mean age of (53.63±4.33) years. The New York Heart Association (NYHA) functional class was Ⅱ to Ⅲ. The mean number of distal anastomoses was 3.17±0.38. A Y-graft was constructed in 12 patients and sequential grafting was performed in 4 patients. Concomitant procedures included coronary endarterectomy in 1 patient, intra-aortic balloon pump (IABP) implantation in 10 patients, and thymoma resection in 1 patient. The mean operative time was (308.13±30.39) min, mechanical ventilation time was (15.42±7.42) h, ICU stay was (46.08±27.32) h, and postoperative hospital stay was (11.71±1.90) d. There were no in-hospital deaths. Postoperative complications included one patient of acute renal failure and one patient of cerebral infarction. Pre-discharge color Doppler echocardiography revealed that the left ventricular end-diastolic diameter was significantly smaller than before surgery (P<0.05), while the left ventricular ejection fraction and fractional shortening were significantly higher (P<0.05). Coronary computed tomography angiography (CTA) showed that all arterial grafts were patent. During a mean follow-up of (14.58±8.75) months, no patients experienced angina recurrence or mortality. Repeat coronary CTA or angiography in 16 patients one year postoperatively confirmed that all arterial grafts remained patent. Conclusion Total arterial OPCABG using a LITA and bilateral RAs is a safe and effective treatment for patients with severe multi-vessel coronary artery disease. For high-risk patients, intraoperative IABP support is recommended.
